Constitutive expression of the wheat TaSOD5 gene enhances salinity tolerance of Arabidopsis thaliana
Superoxide dismutase is a crucial reactive oxygen species (ROS) scavenger and converts the superoxide radical (O2-) to H2O2, so it is thought to enhance abiotic stress tolerance by reducing ROS accumulation and so avoiding oxidative damage. In this study,

Evans function and Fredholm determinants [PDF]
We explore the relationship between the Evans function, transmission coefficient and Fredholm determinant for systems of first order linear differential operators on the real line.

In order to promote the catalytic activity of starch-based biomimetic glutathione peroxidase (GPx), the selenized starch (SCS) and cationic starch (CCS) prepared from cassava starch (CS) were mixed, resulting in the targeted starch (SCS/CCS) with both ...

Influence of estimated training status on anti and pro-oxidant activity, nitrite concentration, and blood pressure in middle-aged and older women [PDF]
The purpose of this study was to compare the association between anti and pro-oxidant activity, nitrite concentration, and blood pressure (BP) in middle-aged and older women with different levels of estimated training status (TS). The sample consisted of

Here we isolated and characterized two genes (slr1171, slr1992) designated gpx‐1 and gpx‐2, respectively, encoding glutathione peroxidase (GPX)‐like proteins (Gpx‐1, Gpx‐2) from Synechocystis PCC 6803. The deduced amino acid sequences for gpx‐1 and gpx‐2 showed high similarity to those of GPX‐like proteins from higher plants and mammalian GPXs ...

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.

Selenium in biology: Facts and medical perspectives [PDF]
Several decades after the discovery of setenium as an essential trace element in vertebrates approximately 20 eukaryotic and more than 15 prokaryotic selenoproteins containing the 21(st) proteinogenic amino acid, selenocysteine, have been identified ...

Partial differential systems with nonlocal nonlinearities: Generation and solutions [PDF]
We develop a method for generating solutions to large classes of evolutionary partial differential systems with nonlocal nonlinearities. For arbitrary initial data, the solutions are generated from the corresponding linearized equations.

Perfluorooctanoic acid affects mouse brain and liver tissue through oxidative stress
The aim of this study was to investigate oxidative stress induced by perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA) in the brain and liver tissues of Balb/c mice as well as protective effects of taurine and coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10) in both organs.

Several studies revealed that expression levels of glutathione peroxidase 1 (Gpx-1) can be associated with cancer development, mainly through its role in hydroperoxide scavenging by regulating intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) levels. Therefore,
