Neuroglobin immunoreactivity in the human cochlea [PDF]
Neuroglobin (Ngb) is an oxygen-binding protein with a demonstrated role in endogenous neuroprotective mechanisms. It has been shown to function as a scavenger for reactive oxidizing species thereby assisting in cellular defense against oxidative stress. In the present study, we characterized the presence of Ngb in the human cochlea. Immunohistochemical

Iron‐Histidine Coordination in Cytochrome b5: A Local Vibrational Mode Study
Distal/proximal FeN bond strength and axial NFeN angle stiffness in a series of cytochrome b5s, isolated from different species such as bacteria, animals, and human were investigated with our local vibrational mode analysis combined with QM/MM calculations.

Ligand pathways in neuroglobin revealed by low-temperature photodissociation and docking experiments
A combined biophysical approach was applied to map gas-docking sites within murine neuroglobin (Ngb), revealing snapshots of events that might govern activity and dynamics in this unique hexacoordinate globin, which is most likely to be involved in gas ...

Arginine metabolism is a biomarker of red blood cell and human aging
Reisz et al. examined age‐related changes in erythrocyte metabolism using 15,700 specimens from 13,757 individuals across four cohorts, including healthy donors and sickle cell disease patients. The study identifies alterations in arginine metabolism associated with chronological age, linking them to erythrocyte function, vesiculation, and post ...

Circadian Behaviour in Neuroglobin Deficient Mice
Neuroglobin (Ngb), a neuron-specific oxygen-binding globin with an unknown function, has been proposed to play a key role in neuronal survival. We have previously shown Ngb to be highly expressed in the rat suprachiasmatic nucleus (SCN). The present study addresses the effect of Ngb deficiency on circadian behavior.

Effects of patent foramen ovale in migraine: a metabolomics‐based study
Abstract figure legend Aura, cystatin‐C and calcium are biomarkers of PFO in migraine. PFO closure relieves migraine by regulating 5‐HT metabolism and redox reactions, especially in the posterior head. cTTE, contrast‐transthoracic echocardiography; DESI‐MSI, desorption electrospray ionization mass imaging; H&E, haematoxylin and eosin; PFO, patent ...

Glucagon-like peptide-1 analogue, liraglutide, in experimental cerebral malaria: implications for the role of oxidative stress in cerebral malaria [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Cerebral malaria from Plasmodium falciparum infection is major cause of death in the tropics. The pathogenesis of the disease is complex and the contribution of reactive oxygen and nitrogen species (ROS/RNS) in the brain is incompletely ...

Combined Cyclosporin A and Hypothermia Treatment Inhibits Activation of BV-2 Microglia but Induces an Inflammatory Response in an Ischemia/Reperfusion Hippocampal Slice Culture Model [PDF]
Introduction: Hypothermia attenuates cerebral ischemia-induced neuronal cell death associated with neuroinflammation. The calcineurin inhibitor cyclosporin A (CsA) has been shown to be neuroprotective by minimizing activation of inflammatory pathways.
