Effects of inactivity on human muscle glutathione synthesis by a double-tracer and single-biopsy approach [PDF]
Oxidative stress is often associated to inactivity-mediated skeletal muscle atrophy. Glutathione is one of the major antioxidant systems stimulated, both at muscular and systemic level, by activation of oxidative processes.

Thioredoxin and Glutathione Systems
Most cancer cells contain high levels of reactive oxygen species (ROS), which result in higher expression levels of the glutathione and thioredoxin reductase systems. These antioxidant systems convert ROS to nonharmful compounds and they also reduce disulfide bonds in oxidized proteins.

EFFECT OF N-ACETYLCYSTEINE ON APOPTOSIS OF P19 CANCER CELLS DURING HYPOXIA
Introduction. Hypoxia in tumor growth contributes to mitochondrial dysfunction and exacerbates oxidative stress in the immortalized cell. The objective of the study was to investigate the molecular mechanisms of the effects of N-acetylcysteine on redox ...

Mitochondrial thiol-disulfide system under acute hypoxia and hypoxic-hyperoxic adaptation [PDF]
The authors investigated the state of mitochondrial glutathione pool (reduced and oxidized glutathione, protein-GSH mixed disulfides), content of carbonyl groups and free sulfhydryl groups of proteins, protein expression of key mitochondrial antioxidant ...

The glutathione biosynthetic pathway of Plasmodium is essential for mosquito transmission [PDF]
1Infection of red blood cells (RBC) subjects the malaria parasite to oxidative stress. Therefore, efficient antioxidant and redox systems are required to prevent damage by reactive oxygen species. Plasmodium spp.

Cellular glutathione content in the organ of Corti and its role during ototoxicity. [PDF]
Glutathione (GSH) is the major scavenger of reactive oxygen species (ROS) inside cells. We used live confocal imaging in order to clarify the role of GSH in the biology of the organ of Corti, the sensory epithelium of the cochlea, before, during and ...

Adaptive response to oxidative stress in the filamentous fungus Aspergillus niger B1-D [PDF]
In the present study, we used a recombinant filamentous fungus strain, Aspergillus niger B1-D, as a model system, and investigated the antioxidant defences in this organism.

Cell signalling and the glutathione redox system [PDF]
The reduction/oxidation (redox) state of the cell is a consequence of the balance between the levels of oxidising and reducing equivalents. A reducing intracellular environment is often associated with cell survival; however, redox unbalance is necessary since it represents a regulatory sensor for several nuclear transcription factors.
