Inhibitors

Inhibitors Comment Organism Structure
methylmercury concentration 0.1, 1.0, 20 M, inhibits adenosine deaminase activity in 7- and 60-day-old rats in a concentration-dependent manner, glutathione (50 microM) and dithiothreitol (50 microM) prevent the reduction of adenosine deaminase activity both in cerebral cortex and hippocampus, garlic alcoholic extract (100 microg/ml) abolishes the reduction of adenosine deaminase Rattus norvegicus
Sodium selenate does not alter enzyme activity Rattus norvegicus
