Nitrosative stress induced cytotoxicity in Giardia intestinalis [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Applied Microbiology, 2003
To investigate the antigiardial properties of the nitrosating agents: sodium nitrite, sodium nitroprusside and Roussin's black salt.Use of confocal laser scanning microscopy and flow cytometry indicated permeabilization of the plasma membrane to the anionic fluorophore, DiBAC4(3) [bis(1,3-dibutylbarbituric acid) trimethine oxonol].

The Effect of N-Acetylcysteine on Respiratory Enzymes, ADP/ATP Ratio, Glutathione Metabolism, and Nitrosative Stress in the Salivary Gland Mitochondria of Insulin Resistant Rats

open access: yesNutrients, 2020
This is the first study to assess the effect of N-acetylcysteine (NAC) on the mitochondrial respiratory system, as well as free radical production, glutathione metabolism, nitrosative stress, and apoptosis in the salivary gland mitochondria of rats with ...

Doxorubicin-induced oxidative and nitrosative stress: Mitochondrial connexin 43 is at the crossroads

open access: yesInternational Journal of Molecular Medicine, 2020
Oxidative stress is widely accepted as a key factor of doxorubicin (Doxo)-induced cardiotoxicity. There is evidence to indicate that nitrosative stress is involved in this process, and that Doxo interacts by amplifying cell damage. Mitochondrial connexin

Oxidative and Nitrosative Stress and Fibrogenic Response [PDF]

open access: yesClinics in Liver Disease, 2008
Uncontrolled production of collagen I is the main feature of liver fibrosis. Following a fibrogenic stimulus such as alcohol, hepatic stellate cells (HSC) transform into an activated collagen-producing cell. In alcoholic liver disease, numerous changes in gene expression are associated with HSC activation, including the induction of several ...

A Novel TetR-Like Transcriptional Regulator Is Induced in Acid-Nitrosative Stress and Controls Expression of an Efflux Pump in Mycobacteria

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2017
Mycobacterium tuberculosis has the ability to survive inside macrophages under acid-nitrosative stress. M. tuberculosis Rv1685c and its ortholog in M. smegmatis, MSMEG_3765, are induced on exposure to acid-nitrosative stress.

Manganese import protects Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium against nitrosative stress.

open access: yesMetallomics, 2020
Nitric oxide (NO˙) is a radical molecule produced by mammalian phagocytic cells as part of the innate immune response to bacterial pathogens. It exerts its antimicrobial activity in part by impairing the function of metalloproteins, particularly those ...

S-Glutathionylation of metallothioneins by nitrosative/oxidative stress

open access: yesExperimental Gerontology, 2008
Cystein residues within metallothionein (MT) structure have been shown to be particularly prone to S-nitrosylation. The objective of this study was to examine the possibility that MTs undergo S-glutathionylation under nitrosative/oxidative stress. MT from rabbit liver was treated with different concentrations of GSNO, diamide plus GSH or H(2)O(2) plus ...

Role of AP-1 transcriptional factor in development of oxidative and nitrosative stress in periodontal tissues during systemic inflammatory response

open access: yesUkrainian Biochemical Journal, 2019
Chronic systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS) underlies many diseases (sepsis, atherosclerosis, diabetes mellitus). According to research data of recent years the key role in the development of SIRS is played by the activation of various nuclear

A Novel Mechanism for Nitrosative Stress Tolerance Dependent on GTP Cyclohydrolase II Activity Involved in Riboflavin Synthesis of Yeast

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2020
The biological functions of nitric oxide (NO) depend on its concentration, and excessive levels of NO induce various harmful situations known as nitrosative stress.

Cellular responses of Candida albicans to phagocytosis and the extracellular activities of neutrophils are critical to counteract carbohydrate starvation, oxidative and nitrosative stress.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
Neutrophils are key players during Candida albicans infection. However, the relative contributions of neutrophil activities to fungal clearance and the relative importance of the fungal responses that counteract these activities remain unclear.
