The anti-cancer drug YM155's primary mode of action is generation of reactive oxygen species, while survivin suppression and DNA damage are secondary effects.

BAS 9052 {2-[1-(ethoxyimino)-butyl]-5-[2-(ethylthio)-propyl]-3-hydroxy-2-cyclohexene-1-one} and difenopenten {4-[4-[4-(trifluoromethyl)phenoxy]phenoxy]-2-pentenoic acid} concentrations less than 1% (w/w) did not normally inhibit apparent photosynthesis (AP) of corn (Zea maysL. ‘Mo 17 × B73′) leaves for at least 24 h. However, leaf growth was completely inhibited by BAS 9052 within 24 h. Leaf AP was initially more inhibited in soybean (Glycine maxL. ‘Corsoy’) than in corn by each herbicide, but within 48 h soybean AP was usually recovering and plants grew normally. Because inhibition of corn leaf growth preceded that of AP, leaf photosynthesis could not be a primary mode of action for BAS 9052.

Ejaculated spermatozoa from rams given intramuscular injections of <x-chlorohydrin (25 mg/kg, daily for 5 days) were studied. Respiratory and glycolytic activity of the spermatozoa was almost entirely suppressed within 1 day and motility had decreased within 4 days of the first injection. Morphologically abnormal spermatozoa appeared in ejaculates after 2 weeks. The most common abnormality was an increase in the number of spermatozoa with looped or bent tails. There was little change in the fructose or amino acid concentration of the seminal plasma. All effects of <x-chlorohydrin were fully reversible. It is suggested that the initial primary mode of action of <x-chlorohydrin is to disrupt the metabolism of spermatozoa in the cauda epididymis.

Summary5,-5'-diphenyl-2-thiohydantoin (DPTH) is an effective inhibitor of thyroxine (T4) stimulation of α-glycerophosphate dehydrogenase in rat liver mitochondria. Because this finding indicated a possible tool for future study of the mode of action of thyroxine, the ultrastructural and biochemical effects of DPTH and/or thyroxine on rat liver mere investigated.Rats were fed either standard or DPTH (0.06%) diet for 30 days before T4 (250 ug/kg/day) was injected. Injection of T4 occurred daily for 10 days prior to sacrifice. After removal of the liver and kidneys, part of the tissue was frozen at -50°C for later biocheailcal analyses, while the rest was prefixed in buffered 3.5X glutaraldehyde (390 mOs) and post-fixed in buffered 1Z OsO4 (376 mOs). Tissues were embedded in Araldlte 502 and the sections examined in a Zeiss EM 9S.Hepatocytes from hyperthyroid rats (Fig. 2) demonstrated enlarged and more numerous mitochondria than those of controls (Fig. 1). Glycogen was almost totally absent from the cytoplasm of the T4-treated rats.
