Synthesis of benzimidazole derivatives and their influence on the membranotoxic effects of organophosphorus Compounds

Effects of methyluracil and hydroxymethacil on free-radical oxidation in model systems

“…For example, an inhibitory effect of 5-hydroxy-6-methyluracil (hydroxymethacil) on lipid peroxidation (LPO) in vivo has been demonstrated [3,5,6]. However, the mechanism of antioxidant action by methyluracil has been variously appraised by different investigators [5,6,8].…”

Kinetics and mechanism of the reactions of uracil with hydrogen peroxide in aqueous solutions

“…At the same time, one of their most important properties is their ability to inhibit the free radical chain oxidation process leading to the formation of radicals and perox ide compounds [1][2][3][4], whose accumulation in living organisms can cause pathological changes. Thus, the antioxidant activity of uracils is an important feature of their medical action.…”
