Cardiopulmonary adaptations of a diving marine mammal, the bottlenose dolphin: Physiology during anesthesia

Physiological Reports, Volume 12, Issue 17, September 2024.
Abstract Diving marine mammals are a diverse group of semi‐ to completely aquatic species. Some species are targets of conservation and rehabilitation efforts; other populations are permanently housed under human care and may contribute to clinical and biomedical investigations.

Phylogenetic analysis reveals wide distribution of globin X

Biology Direct, 2011
The vertebrate globin gene repertoire consists of seven members that differ in terms of structure, function and phyletic distribution. While hemoglobin, myoglobin, cytoglobin, and neuroglobin are present in almost all gnathostomes examined so far, other ...

Role of flavonoids and nitrates in cardiovascular health [PDF]

, 2017
CVD remain the leading cause of death globally. Effective dietary strategies for their reduction are of high priority. Increasing evidence suggests that phytochemicals, particularly dietary flavonoids and nitrates, are key modulators of CVD risk ...

Iron–histidine bonding in bishistidyl hemoproteins–A local vibrational mode study

Journal of Computational Chemistry, Volume 45, Issue 9, Page 574-588, April 5, 2024.
Using our local mode analysis, the strength of FeN distal and proximal bonds was investigated for bishistidyl proteins from bacteria, animals, human, and plants via local mode force constants ka(FeN). We also investigated the stiffness of the axial NFeN bond angle via local mode force constants ka(NFeN).

The effect of reactive oxygen and nitrogen species on the structure of cytoglobin: A potential tumor suppressor

Redox Biology, 2018
Many current anti-cancer therapies rely on increasing the intracellular reactive oxygen and nitrogen species (RONS) contents with the aim to induce irreparable damage, which subsequently results in tumor cell death.

Effect of cytoglobin overexpression on extracellular matrix component synthesis in human tenon fibroblasts

Biological Research, 2019
Background Conjunctival filtering bleb scar formation is the main reason for the failure of glaucoma filtration surgery. Cytoglobin (Cygb) has been reported to play an important role in extracellular matrix (ECM) remodeling, fibrosis and tissue damage ...
