A Comparison of Pathophysiology in Humans and Rodent Models of Subarachnoid Hemorrhage
Frontiers in Molecular Neuroscience, 2018 Non-traumatic subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) affects an estimated 30,000 people each year in the United States, with an overall mortality of ~30%. Most cases of SAH result from a ruptured intracranial aneurysm, require long hospital stays, and result in ...

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.A novel hydrogel (HLBP) incorporating natural polysaccharides from goji berries is developed to enhance diabetic bone defect healing. The hydrogel efficiently scavenges ROS, improves osteogenic differentiation, and promotes in vivo bone regeneration. This strategy offers a biocompatible and localized approach, overcoming the challenges of traditional ...

NO and Heme Proteins: Cross-Talk between Heme and Cysteine Residues
Antioxidants, 2023 Heme proteins are a diverse group that includes several unrelated families. Their biological function is mainly associated with the reactivity of the heme group, which—among several other reactions—can bind to and react with nitric oxide (NO) and other ...

Role of Heme Oxygenase as a Modulator of Heme-Mediated Pathways [PDF]
Antioxidants, 2019 The heme oxygenase (HO) system is essential for heme and iron homeostasis and necessary for adaptation to cell stress. HO degrades heme to biliverdin (BV), carbon monoxide (CO) and ferrous iron. Although mostly beneficial, the HO reaction can also produce deleterious effects, predominantly attributed to excessive product formation. Underrated so far is,

An investigation into the feasibility of myoglobin-based single-electron transistors [PDF]
Nanotechnology 23, 395705 (2012), 2012 Myoglobin single-electron transistors were investigated using nanometer- gap platinum electrodes fabricated by electromigration at cryogenic temperatures. Apomyoglobin (myoglobin without heme group) was used as a reference. The results suggest single electron transport is mediated by resonant tunneling with the electronic and vibrational levels of the ...
