The isoprenoids
pristane (Pr) and phytane (Ph) are abundant in all oil shale samples (Fig.
MSNC 14 produced surfactants during growth on n-heptadecane,
pristane, and phenanthrene, but not during growth on acetate [31].
Handono et al., "Immune supression effects of curcumin in
pristane induced lupus mice," International Journal of Rheumatic Disease, 2015.
Pristane was injected in female BALB/c mice to induce the disease.
The phytate or phytane in the pigment material begins to form
pristane under oxidation with the weakening of the reduction conditions.
The ratio of
pristane (Pr) and phytane (Ph) value is 6.35 in the Wenchang source rocks from well 243 with low content of 4-methyl sterane (Figure 10), which means that the source rocks were formed in a shallow water environment.
The potential role of rituximab for pulmonary hemorrhage is further supported by a murine model that showed the pivotal role of B cells in the pathogenesis of DAH by inducing lung inflammation with
pristane [25, 26].
Samples of the megalopae were initially taken to an independent laboratory in Pensacola, FL, for analytical testing and the presence of the dispersant compound dioctyl sodium sulfosuccinate and the biomarkers
pristane and phytane were identified in the samples using an AccuTOF-DART Mass Spectrometer, JEOL Ltd.
Traces of methyl branched hydrocarbons (Farnesane and Nor
pristane) and isoprenoids such as
pristane and phytane were present in oily sludge alone.
Summary: Aliphatic hydrocarbons including resolved aliphatics (C11-C30), isoprenoids (phytane and
pristane) and unresolved complex mixture, as well as total aromatic hydrocarbons were analyzed in 25 surface sediment samples represented five sites along Jeddah coast, Red Sea.
Thus, in this study, we aimed to investigate the relationship between SLE and pregnancy in
pristane induced lupus mice model, including the pregnancy outcome for mothers and neonates.
