FGF-2 Induces Neuronal Death through Upregulation of System xc- [PDF]
The cystine/glutamate antiporter (system xc-) transports cystine into cell in exchange for glutamate. Fibroblast growth factor-2 (FGF-2) upregulates system xc- selectively on astrocytes, which leads to increased cystine uptake, the substrate for ...

Glutathione Metabolism in Renal Cell Carcinoma Progression and Implications for Therapies [PDF]
A significantly increased level of the reactive oxygen species (ROS) scavenger glutathione (GSH) has been identified as a hallmark of renal cell carcinoma (RCC). The proposed mechanism for increased GSH levels is to counteract damaging ROS to sustain the

Determination of cystine in blood and urine is very important to monitor and maintain the bio metabolism, immune systems, and prevent the tissue/DNA damage from free radicals, diagnosis of cystinuria disease, cancer, and related autoimmune diseases ...

A unique hydrogel based on extracellular matrix from fish swim bladder, which is suitable for transcatheter delivery and possesses remarkable reparative capabilities for treating heart failure, is developed. It emerges as a multi‐effect factor profoundly influencing inflammation regulation, angiogenesis, and myocardial metabolism.

Blunted Cystine–Glutamate Antiporter Function in the Nucleus Accumbens Promotes Cocaine-induced Drug Seeking [PDF]
Repeated cocaine alters glutamate neurotransmission, in part, by reducing cystine–glutamate exchange via system xc−, which maintains glutamate levels and receptor stimulation in the extrasynaptic compartment.

The odour of white bread [PDF]
Volatile constituents of white bread were investigated. Different methods were used for isolating and concentrating components to avoid artefacts as far as possible. Especially good was enlarged vapour analysis.

Ferroptosis is a form of regulated non-apoptotic cell death that has been implicated in several disease contexts. A better understanding of the ferroptotic death mechanism could lead to the development of new therapeutics for degenerative diseases, and a

Dipyridamole Acts as Clinical Ferroptosis Inhibitor to Prevent from Tissue Injury
Dipyridamole acts as a clinically used compound to suppress ferroptosis. Dipyridamole down‐regulates the expression of RNF126, which is an E3 ligase to ubiquitinate SLC7A11 for proteasome degradation. The deficiency of SLC7A11 largely abolishes the protective role of dipyridamole both in vitro and in vivo.

NRF2 signalling in cytoprotection and metabolism
The KEAP1‐NRF2 system plays a central role in cytoprotection in defence mechanisms against oxidative stress. The KEAP1‐NRF2 system has been regarded as a sulfur‐utilizing cytoprotective mechanism, because KEAP1 serves as a biosensor for electrophiles by using its reactive thiols and NRF2 is a transcriptional factor regulating genes involved in sulfur ...

Low‐Level Arsenic Removal from Drinking Water
The reported ability of cysteine and cystine to bind typical arsenic oxy‐ions in water is used as a basis for a study of the potential for using a surfactant with a cysteine head‐group for selective arsenic binding and removal in an ion flotation process.
