Glutathione Reductase Deficiency in Saudi Arabia

open access: yesAnnals of Saudi Medicine, 1989
Glutathione reductase [GR]is a ubiquitous enzyme required for the conversion of oxidized glutathione [GSSG] to reduced glutathione [GSH] concomitantly oxidizing reduced nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate [NADPH]in a reaction essential for the stability and integrity of red cells.

Subnormothermic Perfusion in the Isolated Rat Liver Preserves the Antioxidant Glutathione and Enhances the Function of the Ubiquitin Proteasome System. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
The reduction of oxidative stress is suggested to be one of the main mechanisms to explain the benefits of subnormothermic perfusion against ischemic liver damage. In this study we investigated the early cellular mechanisms induced in isolated rat livers

Catalytic oxidant scavenging by selenium-containing compounds: Reduction of selenoxides and N-chloramines by thiols and redox enzymes

open access: yesRedox Biology, 2017
Myeloperoxidase produces strong oxidants during the immune response to destroy invading pathogens. However, these oxidants can also cause tissue damage, which contributes to the development of numerous inflammatory diseases. Selenium containing compounds,

Effects of lanthanum on the ascorbate and glutathione metabolism of Vigna radiata seedlings under salt stress

open access: yesBiologia Plantarum, 2014
In order to elucidate the role of lanthanum (La) in response of Vigna radiata to a salt stress, we investigated the effects of La on the ascorbate and glutathione metabolism.

Antioxidant status in women with uterine leiomyoma: relation with sex hormones

open access: yesAnais da Academia Brasileira de Ciências, 2015
Uterine leiomyomas are benign soft-tissues tumors that arise from uterine smooth muscle tissue. Etiopathogenesis of leiomyomas is not well understood. We aimed to examine whether antioxidant enzyme activities and lipid hydroperoxides level in patients ...

Three-photon absorption in water-soluble ZnS nanocrystals [PDF]

open access: yesAppl. Phys. Lett. 88, 181114 (2006), 2006
We report on large three-photon absorption (3PA) in glutathione-capped ZnS semiconductor nanocrystals (NCs), determined by both Z-scan and transient transmission techniques with 120-fs laser pulses. The monodispersed, water-soluble ZnS NCs are synthesized by a modified protocol with a mean diameter of 2.5 nm. Their 3PA cross-section is determined to be

High‐Efficiency Carriers’ Separation Strategy Based Ultrasmall‐Bandgap CuWO4 Sono‐Enhances GSH Antagonism for Cuproptosis Cascade Immunotherapy

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study prepares copper tungstate (CuWO4, CWO) nanoparticles for synergistic sono‐enhanced cuproptosis‐based cancer therapy. With an ultrasmall bandgap (1.71 eV), CWO facilitates efficient charge carrier separation under ultrasound, enhancing the generation of reactive oxygen species and the controlled release of Cu2+ ions cascade amplify oxidative ...
