Effect of Prolonged High-Fat Diet on Thiol-Disulfide Homeostasis in Rats [PDF]
International Journal of Biomedicine, 2013 The aim of this study was to determine the effect of a prolonged high-fat (HF) on thiol-disulfide homeostasis via the activity of the glutathione redox-system (GRS) in rat blood and liver. Methods: The experiment was conducted on male Wistar rats.

Glutaredoxin catalysis requires two distinct glutathione interaction sites
Nature Communications, 2017 Glutaredoxins have important roles in redox processes. Here the authors show that the enzymatic activity of glutaredoxins requires two distinct glutathione interactions sites, one recognizing the glutathione disulfide substrate and one activating ...

Chemical vapor deposition growth of bilayer graphene in between molybdenum disulfide sheets [PDF]
J. Colloid Interface Sci., 505 (2017) 776-782, 2017 Direct growth of flat micrometer-sized bilayer graphene islands in between molybdenum disulfide sheets is achieved by chemical vapor deposition of ethylene at about 800 {\deg}C. The temperature assisted decomposition of ethylene takes place mainly at molybdenum disulfide step edges.

Unsaturated Single Atoms on Monolayer Transition Metal Dichalcogenides for Ultrafast Hydrogen Evolution [PDF]
ACS Nano, 2020, 14 (1), 767-776, 2020 Large scale implementation of electrochemical water splitting for hydrogen evolution requires cheap and efficient catalysts to replace expensive platinum. Molybdenum disulfide is one of the most promising alternative catalysts but its intrinsic activity is still inferior to platinum.

Hopping Transport through Defect-induced Localized States in Molybdenum Disulfide [PDF]
Nature Communications 4, 2642 (2013), 2013 Molybdenum disulfide is a novel two-dimensional semiconductor with potential applications in electronic and optoelectronic devices. However, the nature of charge transport in back-gated devices still remains elusive as they show much lower mobility than theoretical calculations and native n-type doping.
