"Short Communication on the Potential Activity of Potassium Hydroxide on the Formation of Low-Weight Immunoglobulin"

Abstract

Advances in technology and industry have sometimes negatively affected human life in harmony with nature. Some of the important ones are the increasing health problems, especially allergic, immunological, viral diseases and cancer. These increasing health problems have brought about the search for antibody treatments. In the discussed study, the potential effectiveness of the spontaneous intermolecular exergonic interaction between potassium hydroxide(KOH) and immunoglobulin(Ig) heavy and light chain disulfide bonds on low molecular weight Ig formation was emphasized. In this article, the results of the effect of KOH on disulfide bonds in Ig are discussed in the light of previous knowledge. The interest of KOH in the region of disulfide bonds, which leads to breakage and increased mobility in Ig structures, is quite remarkable. Therefore, KOH inhalation may be a potential molecule in the treatment of many diseases such as allergic, immunological, viral diseases and cancer.
