formic acid ammonium

Ammonium formate (Formic acid ammonium salt) is the simplest carboxylic acid. Formate is an intermediate in normal metabolism. It is responsible for both metabolic acidosis and disrupting mitochondrial electron transport and energy production by inhibiting cytochrome oxidase activity, the terminal electron acceptor of the electron transport chain. Cell death from cytochrome oxidase inhibition by formate is believed to result partly from depletion of ATP, reducing energy concentrations so that essential cell functions cannot be maintained. Furthermore, inhibition of cytochrome oxidase by formate may also cause cell death by increased production of cytotoxic reactive oxygen species (ROS) secondary to the blockade of the electron transport chain.

Uridine diphosphate glucuronic acid ammonium (UDP-α-D-glucuronic acid ammonium) is a precursor of many plant cell wall polysaccharides and is required for the production of seed mucilage.Uridine diphosphate glucuronic acid ammonium is a precursor of pathogenic fungi. ammonium is a key metabolite for pod polysaccharide synthesis in the pathogenic fungus Cryptococcus neoformans.

Simvastatin ammonium is an active metabolite of simvastatin lactone mediated. Simvastatin ammonium reduces indoxyl sulfate-mediated reactive oxygen species and modulates OATP3A1 expression in cardiomyocytes and HEK293 cells transfected with the OATP3A1 ge
