Abstract
Hydrazine (N2H4), a crucial chemical raw material, enhances people's lives and fosters human progress. Hydrazine usage or leakage has caused environmental contamination, affecting water, soil, and living beings. Hydrazine simultaneously presents a possible risk to human health due to its carcinogenic properties. Thus, quick and precise detection of hydrazine is crucial in environmental studies and biological contexts. We prepared a red-emitting fluorescence turn-on probe (XT-HZ) to detect hydrazine specifically. The probe has a low detecting limit for hydrazine (63 nM) with excitation wavelength at 570 nm and emission wavelength at 625 nm. Besides, the probe XT-HZ had excellent water solubility, high selectivity, and good sensitivity for detecting hydrazine. Finally, probe XT-HZ was applied in the imaging of N2H4 in living cells, zebrafish and environmental water samples.

Abstract
Synthetic nucleoside mimics are re-emerging as crucial contenders for antiviral and anticancer medications. While, Ribavirin stands out for its unique antiviral properties, predominantly associated with its distinctive triazole heterocycle as a nucleobase, the exploration of alternative nitrogen-based aromatic heterocycles hold great promises for the discovery of novel bioactive nucleoside mimics. Although nucleoside derivatives synthesized from hydrazine-ribose units have been in development for many decades, they have been little evaluated biologically and even less for their antiviral properties. With the aim of taking a closer look at these under-explored derivatives and investigating their synthetic pathways, this review provides an overview of the molecular design, the chemical synthesis, and the biological activity, when available, of these nucleoside analogues. Overall, the entire body of work already done motivates further exploration of these analogues and encourages us of formulating structurally novel nucleoside drug candidates featuring innovative mode of action.

Abstract
The protective effect of picroliv (PIC) obtained from Picrorhiza kurroa (family: Scrophulariaceae) against hydrazine (Hz)-induced hyperlipidemia was evaluated in rats. Hz administration (50 mg/kg, i.p.) caused an increase in triglyceride (TG), cholesterol (CHO), free fatty acids (FFA), and total lipids (TL) in both the plasma and liver tissue of rats accompanied by a fall in phospholipids (PL) in the liver tissue 24 h after its administration, indicating its hyperlipidemic property. The above abnormality was prevented by simultaneous treatment of PIC (50 mg/kg, p.o.) with Hz. Hz treatment also caused an increase in the mobility of TG and TL from adipose tissue, and these results indicate that Hz administration could cause hepatic steatosis by nonhepatocellular factors (such as mobilization of depot fats). This effect was also prevented by simultaneous treatment of PIC with Hz. PIC-alone treatment, however, did not produce any change in the status of all the lipid parameters evaluated in plasma, liver, and adipose tissues. These results indicate that increased mobilization of depot fats from adipose tissue may contribute to the development of hepatic steatosis in addition to decreased lipoprotein secretion, increased hepatic TG biosynthesis, and increased hepatic uptake of FFA. These have been reported as the mechanism responsible for the development of Hz-induced hepatic steatosis. PIC prevents Hz-induced hyperlipidemia, hepatic steatosis, and mobilization of lipids from depot fats, but the mechanism behind the protective effect of PIC remains to be elucidated.

Abstract
Activation of 1,2-dimethylhydrazine (DMH) by prolonged auto-oxidation (24-h) induced proliferation of mouse fibroblasts at low hydrazine concentrations (0.1-1.0 mM) as determined by [3H-methyl]-thymidine uptake of confluent quiescent cells. Incubations were performed under conditions in which alkyl radicals are slowly formed by DMH auto-oxidation. The proliferative stimulus induced by DMH auto-oxidation complements that induced by insulin, PMA, and EGF. Inhibition by the iron chelators, o-phenanthroline and desferrioxamine, demonstrates that the induction of the proliferative effect is dependent on simple iron complexes. Proliferation was also inhibited by superoxide dismutase, catalase, and mannitol, implicating reactive oxygen species, although superoxide dismutase and catalase also inhibited alkyl radical formation, as determined by spin-trapping. These results suggest that cell proliferation induced by DMH auto-oxidation is mediated by reactive oxygen species, mainly the hydroxyl radical, and is dependent on simple iron complexes, possibly involving the Fenton reaction.

Abstract
Efficient peroxidase substrates may have a critical role in the oxidation of secondary compounds by peroxidases. Hydrazines are often oxidized slowly by peroxidases due, in part, to hydrazine-dependent inactivation of these enzymes. Peroxidase-catalyzed oxidation of hydrazines may be dramatically affected by an efficient peroxidase substrate. We investigated this hypothesis in a model system using the well-known peroxidase substrate chlorpromazine (CPZ) and the hydrazine derivative isoniazid. CPZ stimulated isoniazid oxidation as measured by nitroblue tetrazolium (NBT) reduction and O2 consumption. The kinetics of isoniazid and CPZ oxidation by horseradish peroxidase (HRP) in the presence of both compounds suggested CPZ was acting as an electron transfer mediator between HRP and isoniazid. Indeed, CPZ.+, the product of CPZ oxidation by HRP, was able to oxidize isoniazid. The rate constant for this pH-dependent reaction was (2.6 +/- 0.1) x 10(4) M-1 s-1 at pH 4.5. In the absence of CPZ, isoniazid-dependent irreversible inactivation of HRP was observed. The inactivation process involved the formation of compound III followed by accumulation of irreversibly inactivated HRP. CPZ completely inhibited inactivation. Thus, by acting as a redox mediator and preventing HRP inactivation, CPZ stimulated isoniazid oxidation by several orders of magnitude. Similarly, other efficient peroxidase substrates, such as phenol and tyrosine, were also able to dramatically stimulate isoniazid oxidation by HRP. We suggest that the presence of efficient peroxidase substrates may potentiate the activation of isoniazid and other hydrazines. As such, these substrates may have a vital role in the pharmacological and toxicological properties of hydrazines and other compounds.

Abstract
Hypochlorous acid (HOCl) derived from activated neutrophils and monocytes has been implicated in the activation of hydrazine-containing drugs to toxic intermediates. However, reactive intermediates formed during the reaction between HOCl and these drugs have not been identified. We investigated the oxidation of the hydrazine derivatives isoniazid, iproniazid, and hydralazine by HOCl. The reaction between HOCl and all three hydrazines resulted in O2 consumption, indicating that free radicals were produced, but the rate and extent of O2 consumption were different for each hydrazine. Moreover, reduction of nitroblue tetrazolium (NBT) was observed only during the reaction between HOCl and isoniazid, suggesting that different radical species may be produced from HOCl reaction with each hydrazine. The oxidation of iproniazid by HOCl in the presence of the radical trap 5,5-dimethyl-1-pyrroline N-oxide (DMPO) resulted in the formation of a carbon-centered radical adduct. In contrast, the reaction between HOCl and hydralazine resulted in the formation of a nitrogen-centered DMPO radical adduct. The oxidation of isoniazid by HOCl resulted in the formation of two oxygen-centered radical adducts, DMPO-OOH and DMPO-OH. Myeloperoxidase-catalyzed oxidation of these hydrazines in the presence of Cl- and H2O2 produced radical species that were identical to those observed with HOCl. Thus, some of the toxic side effects of these drugs may be the result of the production of free-radical intermediates from reaction with neutrophil-derived oxidants, such as HOCl. The types of radicals produced and the consequences of generating these reactive species are discussed.

Abstract
The possible significance of carbon-centered radicals in hydrazine-induced carcinogenesis is explored by studies of the interaction between the 2-phenylethyl radical and DNA. The radical is efficiently generated during oxidation of phenelzine (2-phenylethylhydrazine) promoted by oxyhemoglobin or ferricyanide, as demonstrated by spin-trapping experiments and analysis of the reaction products. In the ferricyanide promoted oxidation, ethylbenzene formation accounts for about 40% of the initial drug concentration, from 5 to 100 mM phenelzine. By contrast, product formation in the presence of oxyhemoglobin depends on the enzyme concentration due to the fact that the prosthetic heme is destroyed during catalytic turnover. Covalent binding of the 2-phenylethyl radical to oxyhemoglobin is demonstrated by experiments with 2-[3H]phenelzine, where tritium incorporation to the protein is inhibited by the spin-trap, alpha-(4-pyridyl-1-oxide)-N-tert-butylnitrone. The 2-phenylethyl radical is also able to alkylate DNA as suggested by electrophoretic studies with plasmid DNA, and proved by experiments with 2-[3H]-phenelzine. The carbon-centered radical has a preference for attacking guanine residues as demonstrated by the use of sequencing techniques with 32P-DNA probes. The results indicate that the 2-phenylethyl radical is an important product of phenelzine oxidation and that this species can directly damage protein and DNA.

Abstract
Phenelzine and pheniprazine were used as substrates for metabolic studies with Cunninghamella echinulata and Mycobacterium smegmatis. Metabolites were identified by means of gas-liquid chromatography and mass spectrometry. 1-Acetyl-2-(2-phenylethyl)-hydrazine and 1-acetyl-2-(1-methyl-2-phenylethyl)hydrazine were the major products of C. echinulata metabolism of phenelzine and pheniprazine, respectively. In addition, M. smegmatis produced a second metabolite from each substrate; these metabolites were unequivocally identified as N-acetylphenylethylamine and N-acetylamphetamine from phenelzine and pheniprazine, respectively.

Abstract
The interaction of the vasodilator, hydralazine, with the molybdenum hydroxylases, aldehyde oxidase and xanthine oxidase has been investigated. A potent progressive inhibition of rabbit liver aldehyde oxidase, in the presence of substrate, by low concentrations of hydralazine (0.1-1 microM) was observed in vitro but no effect was seen with bovine milk xanthine oxidase. This activity was mirrored in vivo when levels of aldehyde oxidase were significantly decreased in rabbits administered hydralazine (10 mg/kg/day for seven days) whereas hepatic xanthine oxidase activity was unaltered by hydralazine treatment. Various metabolites of hydralazine were synthesized but found to be devoid of in vitro inhibitory activity. Aldehyde oxidase prepared from either guinea pig or baboon liver was inhibited in a similar way to that of rabbit liver.

Abstract
Both iproniazid and isopropylhydrazine were metabolized to the hydrocarbon products, propane and propylene, with nearly identical Michaelis constants and rates. This reaction appeared to be catalyzed by microsomal cytochrome P-450. Isonicotinic acid, a product of iproniazid hydrolysis by various amidases, was produced in only very small quantities, suggesting that the other amidase product, isopropylhydrazine, may not be an obligatory intermediate in the pathway of hydrocarbon formation from iproniazid. Hydrocarbon formation from iproniazid was more sensitive to inhibition in vitro by bis-p-nitrophenylphosphate (used in vivo as an amidase inhibitor) than was isopropylhydrazine. Iproniazid must be directly metabolized by cytochrome P-450 to yield propane and propylene, presumably via an azo ester intermediate which could give rise to an isopropyl radical, the chemical species presumed to be responsible for the hepatoxicity apparent after administration of large doses of iproniazid in vivo.

Abstract
A carbon-centered free radical formed during oxidative metabolism of 1,2-dimethylhydrazine has been spin-trapped with alpha-(4-pyridyl-1-oxide)N-tert-butyl nitrone and 2-methyl-2-nitrosopropane. In the horseradish peroxidase/H2O2 catalyzed oxidation, the trapped species was identified as the methyl radical by the characteristic 1:3:3:1 quartet pattern of the 2-methyl-2-nitroso propane adduct. A carbon-centered radical is also formed during microsomal oxidation of 1,2-dimethylhydrazine in the presence of NADPH. However, the alpha-(4-pyridyl-1-oxide)N-tert-butyl nitrone trapped radical has not been unambiguously identified in this latter instance. These results may be of importance in regard to both carcinogenic and antitumor properties of 1,2-disubstituted hydrazine derivatives.

Abstract
The ability of different classes of hydrazine derivatives to modify cytochrome P-450 function during turnover as judged by loss of absorbance at 416 nm, loss of CO-reactive cytochrome P-450, or destruction of haem has been studied. Addition of monosubstituted hydrazines to rat-liver microsomes caused considerable loss of CO-reactive cytochrome P-450 and haem destruction; monosubstituted hydrazides caused mainly loss of CO-reactive cytochrome P-450, most likely due to abortive complex formation. Metabolism of 1,1-disubstituted hydrazines by microsomal cytochrome P-450 resulted in loss of CO-reactive cytochrome P-450 only, with no haem destruction. The 1,2-disubstituted hydrazines and hydrazides, procarbazine and iproniazid, acted similarly to the monosubstituted hydrazines, while 1,2-dimethylhydrazine elicited no response, either in observable spectral changes or loss of CO-reactive cytochrome P-450. Synthetic diazene intermediates of phenylhydrazine and N-aminopiperidine reacted rapidly with microsomal cytochrome P-450 to form a spectral intermediate resembling the putative iron porphyrin-diazenyl complex. The decomposition of certain iron porphyrin-diazenyl derivatives apparently leads to destruction of the porphyrin prosthetic group, most likely due to haem alkylation.

Abstract
The binding of hydralazine, a hydrazine-containing hypotensive drug, to nucleic acids has been studied. Binding of this drug to biopolymers was assayed using spin-trapping techniques in the presence of various metal ions, which produce free radical intermediates from hydralazine [B. K. Sinha and A. G. Motten, Biochem, biophys. Res. Commun. 105, 1044 (1982)]. Some interaction was detected with the single-stranded nucleic acids. Hydralazine binds strongly to the native DNA, most likely by intercalation of the drug into DNA bases. In the presence of nucleic acids and metal ions, hydralazine stimulated the production of OH(.) radicals which was inversely proportional to the degree of binding. Aldehyde formation in DNA was also induced by hydralazine which was stimulated by superoxide dismutase and inhibited by catalase.

Abstract
In this review it has been pointed out that vitamin B6 and its vitamers can be involved in many interactions with a number of drugs, as well as with the actions of various endocrines and neurotransmitters. Nutritional deficiencies, especially of vitamins and proteins, can affect the manner in which drugs undergo biotransformation, and thereby may also modify the therapeutic efficacy of certain drugs. The differences between nutritional vitamin B6 deficiency and the hereditary disorder producing pyridoxine dependency are discussed. In addition to a pyridoxine deficiency being able to adversely affect drug actions, the improper supplementation with vitamin B6 can in some instances also adversely affect drug efficacy. A decrease by pyridoxine in the efficacy of levodopa used in the treatment of Parkinsonism is an example. The interrelationships and enzymatic interconversions among pyridoxine vitamers, both phosphorylated and non-phosphorylated, are briefly discussed, particularly regarding their pharmacokinetic properties. The ways in which the normal biochemical functions of vitamin B6 may be interfered with by various drugs are reviewed. (1) The chronic administration of isoniazid for the prevention or treatment of tuberculosis can produce peripheral neuropathy which can be prevented by the concurrent administration of pyridoxine. An acute toxic overdose of isoniazid causes generalized convulsions, and the intravenous administration of pyridoxine hydrochloride will prevent or stop these seizures. (2) The acute ingestion of excessive monosodium glutamate will, in some individuals, cause a group of symptoms including among others headache, weakness, stiffness, and heartburn, collectively known as the 'Chinese Restaurant Syndrome.' These symptoms can be prevented by prior supplementation with vitamin B6. The beneficial effect is ascribed to the correction of a deficiency in the activity of glutamic oxaloacetic transaminase, an enzyme that is dependent on pyridoxal phosphate. Some interesting relationships are pointed out between vitamin B6, picolinic acid, and zinc. It is postulated that the intestinal absorption of zinc is facilitated by picolinic acid, a metabolite of tryptophan. The derivation of picolinic acid from tryptophan depends on the action of the enzyme kynureninase, which is dependent on pyridoxal phosphate; therefore, the adequate absorption of zinc is indirectly dependent on an adequate supply of vitamin B6. The formation of pyridoxal phosphate, on the other hand, appears to be indirectly dependent on Zn2++ which activates pyridoxal kinase.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 400 WORDS)

The carbonyl amine reaction may be enzymatic or nonenzymatic and in most instances is readily reversible with few examples of the isolation and identification of the Schiff bases (azomethine). Endogenous primary amine and amines generated by metabolic N-dealkylation can react with biogenic ketones and aldehydes and under selected physiological conditions give further condensation products. The new products in most instances alter the biological activity and/or toxicity. It is apparent that these findings can be extended to carbonyl hydrazine reactions. The rates of reaction for simple alkyl and aryl hydrazine are more rapid and the products of these reactions and more stable, with the condensation products of alpha-keto acids being isolated and characterized the most frequently. The further reaction of hydrazones to yield condensation products is also observed with selected hydrazines such as hydralazine. It is now clear that the inherent toxicity of many exogenous ketones and aldehydes exists. Many of these toxicities are due to the reactions which occur with the amino groups of amino acids and proteins. The condensation reactions in most instances are readily reversed and are only dependent on the physiological concentration of aldehydes of ketones. However, there are a number of ketones and aldehydes, some of which are metabolically produced that are capable of forming azomethine intermediates which are not readily reversed under physiological conditions. There are an increasing number of examples of further nonenzymatic condensations which result in stable products which can alter xenobiotic metabolism.

Abstract
The efficacy and toxicity of hydralazine differ widely among individual patients, possibly because of different sensitivities to drug effect or as a reflection of pharmacokinetic differences. Therefore, the variability in plasma hydralazine concentrations after single intravenous and single and multiple oral doses was studied in 9 male hypertensive patients. After an intravenous dose of 0.3 mg/kg the area under the plasma concentration time curve (AUC) varied over less than a twofold range 17.5-29.5 muM-minute. However, after a single oral dose, 1 mg/kg, and after at least the fifth dose of a regimen consisting of 1 mg/kg given every 12 hours, there were much wider variations in AUC values: 4.0-30.4 and 3.2-38.5 muM-minute, respectively. Similar ranges in peak hydralazine concentration, Cp, were also noted, 0.12-1.31 muM after single oral dose and 0.10-1.39 muM after the multiple dose regimen. A significant portion of the observed interpatient variability could be explained by differences in acetylation ability. The AUC and Cp values for both the single and multiple oral doses were significantly lower (P less than 0.001) in rapid than in slow acetylators. Therefore, determining the acetylation ability of patients requiring hydralazine may help to optimize therapeutic benefit and minimize toxicity.

Abstract
Twenty actual new cancer-causing hydrazines, hydrazides, and hydrazones of synthetic or natural origin are described. These compounds induce tumors in various target tissues in mice, hamsters and rats. To nine of these compounds the human population is exposed in the form of drugs, agricultural herbicides, and naturally occurring ingredients of edible mushrooms. Yet, with one exception, none of the hydrazines described here were investigated for cancer-inducing abilities in man. The human population should be warned against the use of this hazardous class of chemicals, the total number of which is now 40.

Abstract
Acetylhydrazine, a metabolite of isoniazid, a widely used antituberculosis drug, and isopropylhydrazine, a metabolite of iproniazid, an antidepressant removed from clinical use because of high incidence of liver injury, were oxidized by cytochrome P-450 enzymes in human and rat liver microsomes to highly reactive acylating and alkylating agents. Covalent binding of these metabolites to liver macromolecules paralleled hepatic cellular necrosis. The metabolites formed from these and probably other monosubstituted hydrazines are reactive electrophiles.

Abstract
Hydrazine Sulphate (H.S.) even at low doses, equivalent to those administered with isoniazid in man, induced pulmonary tumours in the mouse, more actively in female BALB/c, CBA and C3Hb intact virgin mice. Endogenous ovarian stimulation (provoked by breeding, forced breeding and pseudo-pregnancy) increased the morphological malignancy and the carcinogenic index of these tumours in BALB/c and C3Hb mice. H.S. also induced mammary carcinomas in 38 % of forced bred BALB/c mice. Because of their extensive medical, industrial, agricultural and aero-spatial use, H. S. and hydrazine derivatives should be investigated. Several hydrazine derivatives are carcinogenic in mice, rats and hamsters.
