55482-27-4 Usage
Uses
Biliverdin dihydrochloride was found responsible for cytoprotection. It was also found to induce tolerance to cardiac allografts. Biliverdin hydrochloride may regulate the cellular heme degradation process by occupying the heme binding site on heme oxygenase which would prevent access of the substrate to the catalytic site of the enzyme.
General Description
Biliverdin?(BV) is considered as a near-infrared (NIR)-absorbing pigment, that is endogenic. It is a linear tetrapyrrolic intermediate of heme degradation (heme catabolism) to bilirubin. The bile of amphibia and birds contains only biliverdine, no bilirubin.
Biochem/physiol Actions
Biliverdin (BV) is an excellent anti-inflammatory agent that protects against lipopolysaccharides (LPS)-induced lung injury in mouse endothelial cells. It aids protection in polymicrobial sepsis. Biliverdin has cytoprotective effects on rat livers and protects from prolonged ischemia and reperfusion injury. It also shows antioxidant activities.
Check Digit Verification of cas no
The CAS Registry Mumber 55482-27-4 includes 8 digits separated into 3 groups by hyphens. The first part of the number,starting from the left, has 5 digits, 5,5,4,8 and 2 respectively; the second part has 2 digits, 2 and 7 respectively.
Calculate Digit Verification of CAS Registry Number 55482-27:
(7*5)+(6*5)+(5*4)+(4*8)+(3*2)+(2*2)+(1*7)=134
134 % 10 = 4
So 55482-27-4 is a valid CAS Registry Number.
