The depletion of nuclear glutathione impairs cell proliferation in 3t3 fibroblasts. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2009
BACKGROUND:Glutathione is considered essential for survival in mammalian cells and yeast but not in prokaryotic cells. The presence of a nuclear pool of glutathione has been demonstrated but its role in cellular proliferation and differentiation is still

Natural Product‐Induced Ferroptosis to Overcome Therapy Resistance in Aggressive Cancers

open access: yesChemMedChem, Volume 21, Issue 20, 28 October 2026.
Natural products trigger ferroptosis through iron overload, glutathione depletion, glutathione peroxidase 4 inhibition, and reactive oxygen species accumulation, selectively targeting aggressive, and drug‐resistant cancers. Polyphenols, alkaloids and terpenoids emerge as promising multi‐target agents to overcome therapy resistance and improve future ...

Rewiring Pyroptosis to Potentiate Cancer Immunotherapy via a Gasdermin D Agonist Bypassing Caspase‐3

open access: yesAdvanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 57, 14 October 2026.
This work introduces a small‐molecule agonist, DIBDO, that bypasses Casp‐3 to directly trigger GSDMD‐mediated pyroptosis in tumors. Activated by glutathione, DIBDO generates singlet oxygen and molecular iodine, blocking Casp‐3 pathways and inducing immunogenic cell death.

Transitory glutathione deficit during brain development induces cognitive impairment in juvenile and adult rats: Relevance to schizophrenia

open access: yesNeurobiology of Disease, 2007
Glutathione (GSH) metabolism dysfunction is one risk factor in schizophrenia. A transitory brain GSH deficit was induced in Wistar (WIS) and mutant (ODS; lacking ascorbic acid synthesis) rats using BSO (l-buthionine-(S,R)-sulfoximine) from post-natal ...

Reactive Oxygen Species as Central Coordinators of Organelle Stress and Tumor Radiosensitivity

open access: yesCell Biochemistry and Function, Volume 44, Issue 10, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Radiotherapy is a major modality for cancer treatment, but therapeutic responses vary substantially across tumor types and patients. Beyond direct DNA damage, radiation‐induced reactive oxygen species (ROS) are increasingly recognized as dynamic regulators of cellular stress responses.

NT-4/5 Exacerbates Free Radical-Induced Neuronal Necrosis in Vitro and in Vivo

open access: yesNeurobiology of Disease, 2000
Neurotrophins render neurons highly vulnerable to certain injuries. We examined the possibility that NT-4/5 would enhance free radical neurotoxicity in vivo as well as in vitro.

Peptide‐directed nanovehicles enabling tumor‐selective ROS amplification and antitumor immunity

open access: yesVIEW, Volume 7, Issue 5, October 2026.
Cancer cells are vulnerable to oxidative stress, yet exploit immune tolerance to escape destruction. In contrast, their metabolic profile is markedly altered to support rapid proliferation, accompanied by elevated production of reactive oxygen species (ROS).

Effects of buthionine sulfoximine nifurtimox and benznidazole upon trypanothione and metallothionein proteins in Trypanosoma cruzi.

open access: yesBiological Research, 2004
Proteins rich in sulfhydryl groups, such as metallothionein, are present in several strains of the parasite Trypanosoma cruzi, the etiological agent of Chagas' disease.

Chemical Identity of Interaction of Protein with Reactive Metabolite of Diosbulbin B In Vitro and In Vivo

open access: yesToxins, 2017
Diosbulbin B (DIOB), a hepatotoxic furan-containing compound, is a primary ingredient in Dioscorea bulbifera L., a common herbal medicine. Metabolic activation is required for DIOB-induced liver injury.

Amino acid derivatives of natural chlorins as a platform for the creation of targeted photosensitizers in oncology

open access: yesТонкие химические технологии, 2021
Objectives. This study aims to obtain the amino acid derivatives of chlorophyll a and bacteriochlorophyll a for the targeted delivery of pigments to tumor foci. This will increase biocompatibility and, as a result, reduce toxic side effects.
