  2. Prostaglandin E2 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prostaglandin_E2

    A common side effect of prostaglandin E 2 is its effect on gastrointestinal smooth muscle resulting in nausea, vomiting and diarrhea. Other side effects include headache, shivering, and chills. [4] The suppository form of prostaglandin E 2 is associated with increased severity of these symptoms.

  3. Dehydration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dehydration

    The term "dehydration" has sometimes been used incorrectly as a proxy for the separate, related condition of hypovolemia, which specifically refers to a decrease in volume of blood plasma. [3] The two are regulated through independent mechanisms in humans; [3] the distinction is important in guiding treatment. [25]

  4. Ethylene glycol poisoning - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ethylene_glycol_poisoning

    Ethylene glycol has been shown to be toxic to humans [16] and is also toxic to domestic pets such as cats and dogs. A toxic dose requiring medical treatment varies but is considered more than 0.1 mL per kg body weight (mL/kg) of pure substance. That is roughly 16 mL of 50% ethylene glycol for an 80 kg adult and 4 mL for a 20 kg child.

  6. Evelyn effect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Evelyn_effect

    A kinetic and regional chemical study of the Evelyn effect has been described. The results, in the Journal of Chemical Education, made claims involving the mechanism by which the dehydrations occurred. The article looks into the claim of having E1 and E2 mechanisms occur in the reaction.

  7. Pyruvate dehydrogenase complex - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pyruvate_dehydrogenase_complex

    The E2 subunit from pyruvate dehydrogenase evolved from the E2 gene found in BCOADH while both enzymes contain identical E3 subunits due to the presence of only one E3 gene. Since the E1 subunits have a distinctive specificity for particular substrates, the E1 subunits of pyruvate dehydrogenase and BCOADH vary but share genetic similarities.

  8. Dihydrolipoyl transacetylase - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dihydrolipoyl_transacetylase

    Because dihydrolipoyl transacetylase is the second of the three enzyme components participating in the reaction mechanism for conversion of pyruvate into acetyl CoA, it is sometimes referred to as E2. In humans, dihydrolipoyl transacetylase enzymatic activity resides in the pyruvate dehydrogenase complex component E2 (PDCE2) that is encoded by ...

  9. Elimination reaction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elimination_reaction

    An elimination reaction is a type of organic reaction in which two substituents are removed from a molecule in either a one- or two-step mechanism. [2] The one-step mechanism is known as the E2 reaction, and the two-step mechanism is known as the E1 reaction. The numbers refer not to the number of steps in the mechanism, but rather to the ...
