E. Buchar et al., THE IN-VITRO EFFECT OF SODIUM MERCAPTOUNDECAHYDRODODECABORATE (BOROCAPTATE) ON SULFHYDRYL-GROUPS OF DIFFERENT RAT-TISSUES, Methods and findings in experimental and clinical pharmacology, 16(9), 1994, pp. 619-622
The effect of borocaptate on structural protein sulfhydryl (SH) groups
of different organs and kidney subcellular fractions was studied in v
itro. It was shown that the binding capacity of borocaptate is not the
same for different tissues and subcellular fractions. The highest bin
ding capacity was in the liver; while kidney and brain values were sig
nificantly lower. Therefore, it appears that the same concentration of
borocaptate may have different effects in various organs.
