dehydrogenation

beta-Nicotyrine is a tobacco alkaloids Metabolite in the liver.

Retene (NSC-26317) is widely present in recent and ancient sediments, and compounds can be extracted from fir forest soils, humic coals, terrestrial petroleum hydrocarbon source rocks, and deep-sea sediments.Retene is produced by dehydrogenation of pine acids during petrogenesis.

Epmedin C (Baohuoside-VI) was metabolized via desugarization, dehydrogenation, hydrogenation, dehydroxylation, hydroxylation, demethylation and glucuronidation pathways in vivo. It has potential activity against osteoporosis by stimulating osteoblasts.

Glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase is a rate-controlling enzyme of the pentose phosphate pathway (PPP) that catalyzes the oxidative dehydrogenation of glucose-6-phosphate to produce glucose-6-phosphate and NADPH.It is a sex-linked metabolic enzyme involved in the shunting of hexose monophosphate.

Seneciphylline N-oxide is a pyrrolizidine alkaloid obtained from Emilia sonchifolia and is the dehydrogenation product of Senecionine N-oxide.
