IFN-gamma→Zymosan→Peroxidase→poly-ADP-ribose

• 19291858(IFN-gamma): Pretreatment with R(+)-verapamil significantly reduces mortality and cytokine expression in murine model of septic shock.

  It is well known that cytokines play an important role in the pathogenesis of sepsis and septic shock.

• 15187521(Zymosan): Treatment with a novel poly(ADP-ribose) glycohydrolase inhibitor reduces development of septic shock-like syndrome induced by zymosan in mice.

  CONCLUSIONS : This study supports early studies that show efficacy from blocking the poly (ADP-ribose) pathway in septic shock-like syndrome model.

• 17157196(Peroxidase): Role of poly(ADP-ribose) glycohydrolase in the development of inflammatory bowel disease in mice.

  Poly (ADP-ribose) is synthesized from nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD) by poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase 1 (PARP-1) and degraded by poly (ADP-ribose) glycohydrolase (PARG).

• 7980541(poly-ADP-ribose): ADP-ribosylation of heterogeneous ribonucleoproteins in HeLa cells.

  Poly and mono (ADP-ribosyl) transferases catalyze the transfer of ADP-ribose from nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD) to acceptor proteins.
