Genetics of human superoxide dismutase [PDF]
The formal genetics of superoxide dismutase has been studied in a family material from northern Sweden. The results verify the hypothesis that the three phenotypes SOD 1, SOD 2–1 and SOD 2 are controlled by two autosomal alleles. Although the SOD2 gene appears to be associated with somewhat lower enzyme activity, the SOD 2–1 and SOD 2 types were found ...

Copper toxicity in soil was evaluated using biomarkers of oxidative stress (catalase enzyme activity, superoxide dismutase and lipid peroxidation) in the earthworm Eisenia foetida. Agricultural topsoils from mining areas of the Aconcagua river basin were

Scanning Electron Microscopy and Metabolite Measurement Revealed the Stress Mechanism of PS-COOH Microplastics on Rhodotorula mucilaginosa AN5 [PDF]
Microplastics in the marine environment have been paid more and more attention by researchers, and the impact of these substances on marine microorganisms can not be ignored. Studies have shown that PS-COOH Microplastics are harmful to marine molluscs, algae and monads.

Molecular responses of mouse macrophages to copper and copper oxide nanoparticles inferred from proteomic analyses [PDF]
The molecular responses of macrophages to copper-based nanoparticles have been investigated via a combination of proteomic and biochemical approaches, using the RAW264.7 cell line as a model. Both metallic copper and copper oxide nanoparticles have been tested, with copper ion and zirconium oxide nanoparticles used as controls.

Background: Chronic renal failure, particularly end-stage renal disease, is a serious health problem associated with a high mortality rate. Uremic syndrome leads to increased oxidative stress, inflammation, and dyslipidemia.

Detoxification of superoxide without production of H2O2: antioxidant activity of superoxide reductase complexed with ferrocyanide [PDF]
The superoxide radical O(2)(-.) is a toxic by-product of oxygen metabolism. Two O(2)(-.) detoxifying enzymes have been described so far, superoxide dismutase and superoxide reductase (SOR), both forming H2O2 as a reaction product. Recently, the SOR active site, a ferrous iron in a [Fe(2+) (N-His)(4) (S-Cys)] pentacoordination, was shown to have the ...

The influence of varied Mg supply (10-1000 micromolar) and light intensity (100-580 microeinsteins per square meter per second) on the concentrations of ascorbate (AsA) and nonprotein SH-compounds and the activities of superoxide dismutase (SOD; EC 1.15 ...

Catalase, glutathione peroxidase, metabolic syndrome, superoxide dismutase
Labor pain is part of a normal process, which often causes physiological and psychological stress to mother. These stress have impact to both mother and fetus. Largely (90%) labor comes with pain and in some cases severe pain.

The enzyme-like catalytic activity of cerium oxide nanoparticles and its dependency on Ce3+ surface area concentration [PDF]
Cerium oxide nanoparticles are known to catalyze the decomposition of reactive oxygen species such as superoxide radical and hydrogen peroxide. Herein, we examine the superoxide dismutase (SOD) and catalase (CAT) mimetic catalytic activities of nanoceria and demonstrate the existence of generic behaviors.

Superoxide Dismutase Mimics [PDF]
Dear Editor: We write to correct some of the misleading descriptions of our research in a Comprehensive Invited Review “Superoxide Dismutase Mimics: Chemistry, Pharmacology, and Therapeutic Potential” by Dr. Ines Batinic-Haberle and colleagues (1). We wish to correct two factual errors and then discuss a matter of opinion.
