Molecular Dynamics Simulations of Cytochrome c un-folding in AOT Reverse Micelles: the first steps [PDF]
This paper explores the reduced form of horse cytochrome c confined in reverse micelles (RM) of so-dium bis-(2-ethylhexyl) sulfosuccinate (AOT) in isooctane by molecular dynamics simulation. RMs of two sizes were constructed at a water content of Wo = [H2O]/[AOT] = 5.5 and 9.1.

The Dirichlet problem for a class of Hessian type equations [PDF]
We are concerned with the Dirichlet problem for a class of Hessian type equations. Applying some new methods we are able to establish the $C^2$ estimates for an approximating problem under essentially optimal structure conditions. Based on these estimates, the existence of classical solutions is proved.

Thiol/Disulfide Redox Switches in the Regulation of Heme Binding to Proteins [PDF]
This review focuses on thiol/disulfide redox switches that regulate heme binding to proteins and modulate their activities. The importance of redox switches in metabolic regulation and the general mechanism by which redox switches modulate activity are ...

Second order estimates for Hessian equations of parabolic type on Riemannian manifolds [PDF]
In this paper, we establish the second order estimates of solutions to the first initial-boundary value problem for general Hessian type fully nonlinear parabolic equations on Riemannian manifolds. The techniques used in this article can work for a wide range of fully nonlinear PDEs under very general conditions.

Response To Hyperoxia Is Associated With Similar Ho-1 Gene Expression Level In Lungs Of Aging Cba Mice Of Both Sexes [PDF]
Beside classical antioxidative enzymes, the response to hyperoxia might be mediated via regulation of other systems, such as heme oxygenase (HO). Ho-1 gene expression is found to be upregulated by hyperoxia in all groups of mice, while HO-1 protein ...

The first initial boundary value problem for Hessian equations of parabolic type on Riemannian manifolds [PDF]
In this paper, we are concerned with the first initial boundary value problem for a class of fully nonlinear parabolic equations on Riemannian manifolds. As usual, the establishment of the a priori C^2 estimates is our main part. Based on these estimates, the existence of classical solutions is proved under conditions which are nearly optimal.

Heme Oxygenase-1 in Kidney Health and Disease.
SIGNIFICANCE Acute kidney injury (AKI) and chronic kidney disease (CKD) represent a considerable burden in healthcare. The heme oxygenase (HO) system plays an important role in regulating oxidative stress and is protective in a variety of human and ...
