It can turn on survival promoting signaling cascades, amplify inflammation, act mitogenetically against therapy-induced oxidant pressure, or stimulate ferroptosis, a non-apoptotic necrotic-like morphing of deceased cells marked by iron-dependent lipid peroxidation [16, 21,22,23]
The combination is described in pharmacology literature as synergistic
Pyocyanin, being a zwitterion, diffuses across the host cell membrane and undergoes redox reactions by accepting electrons from NADPH which it subsequently donates to molecular oxygen to form primarily O 2 - and subsequently H 2 O 2 through dismutation ( The results detailed in Figure 5 provide a means to explain the pyocyanin/GPx/GRed/GSH interplay: that is, pyocyanin increases the level of ROS, and this leads to enhanced GPx activity in A549 cells because GPx catalyzes the reaction through which GSH neutralizes H 2 O 2
Being able to identify medications correctly is important to ensure that patients are taking the right drug and dose
The recommended use level is 2-5% according to the manufacturer
