  • Herein, we have used hydrogen/deuterium exchange monitored by mass-spectrometry (HDXMS) to investigate the structural dynamics of NQO1 in three ligation states: without ligands (NQO1apo), with FAD (NQO1holo) and with FAD and the inhibitor dicoumarol (NQO1dic). (preprints.org)
  • Dicoumarol was used, along with heparin, for the treatment of deep venous thrombosis. (wikipedia.org)
  • Identified in 1940, dicoumarol became the prototype of the 4-hydroxycoumarin anticoagulant drug class. (wikipedia.org)
  • These compounds are not antagonists of Vitamin K directly-as they are in pharmaceutical uses-but rather promote depletion of vitamin K in bodily tissues allowing vitamin K's mechanism of action as a potent medication for dicoumarol toxicity. (wikipedia.org)
  • The mechanism of action of Vitamin K along with the toxicity of dicoumarol are measured with the prothrombin time (PT) blood test. (wikipedia.org)

  • The mechanism of action of Vitamin K along with the toxicity of dicoumarol are measured with the prothrombin time (PT) blood test. (wikipedia.org)
  • When toxic hay or silage is consumed for several weeks, dicumarol alters proenzymes required for synthesis of prothrombin, resulting in hypoprothrombinemia (by preventing formation of the active enzyme). (merckvetmanual.com)
  • It is a derivative of coumarin, a bitter-tasting but sweet-smelling substance made by plants that does not itself affect coagulation, but which is (classically) transformed in mouldy feeds or silages by a number of species of fungi, into active dicoumarol. (wikipedia.org)
  • Dicoumarol does affect coagulation, and was discovered in mouldy wet sweet-clover hay, as the cause of a naturally occurring bleeding disease in cattle. (wikipedia.org)
  • The analysis and biosynthesis of dicoumarol in spoiled sweet clover. (uregina.ca)
  • During the process of spoiling, the coumarins in sweet clover are converted to toxic dicumarol, a potent vitamin K antagonist and anticoagulant. (merckvetmanual.com)
  • Any method of hay storage that allows molding of sweet clover promotes the likelihood of formation of dicumarol in the hay. (merckvetmanual.com)
  • The time between consumption of toxic sweet clover and appearance of clinical disease varies greatly and depends on the dose (dicumarol concentrations of the sweet clover variety and amount eaten), duration of exposure, and age of the animals. (merckvetmanual.com)
