Low density lipoprotein oxidation by ferritin at lysosomal pH [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Oxidation of low density lipoprotein (LDL) has been proposed to be involved in the pathogenesis of atherosclerosis. We have previously shown that LDL can be oxidised by iron in lysosomes.

A Pseudo‐catalytic Network Motif for Thiol‐based Chemical Reaction Networks

open access: yesChemSystemsChem, Volume 7, Issue 2, March 2025.
The synthesis of chemical reaction networks (CRNs) is a challenging task. Herein, we designed a pseudo‐catalytic network motif for thiol‐based CRNs. This motif involves the reaction between organic thiocyanates and cystamine. Due to the nucleophilic chain mechanism, the rate of this reaction is proportional to the concentration of thiols in the system.
