Analytical carbon-oxygen reactive potential [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
We present a reactive empirical potential with environment-dependent bond strengths for the carbon-oxygen (CO) system. The distinct feature of the potential is the use of three adjustable parameters characterizing the bond: the strength, length, and ...

Revealing the structure of land plant photosystem II: the journey from negative‐stain EM to cryo‐EM

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Advances in cryo‐EM have revealed the detailed structure of Photosystem II, a key protein complex driving photosynthesis. This review traces the journey from early low‐resolution images to high‐resolution models, highlighting how these discoveries deepen our understanding of light harvesting and energy conversion in plants.

Fine Aerosol Toxicity in Urban Environments of the Eastern Mediterranean

open access: yesProceedings
In October 2022, the European Commission published a proposal for a revision of the Ambient Air Quality Directive, introducing stricter thresholds for pollution, more closely aligned with new limits set by the WHO, and strengthening rules for air quality

The Evolution and Ecology of Oxidative and Antioxidant Status: A Comparative Approach in African Mole-Rats

open access: yesAntioxidants, 2023
The naked mole-rat of the family Bathyergidae has been the showpiece for ageing research as they contradict the traditional understanding of the oxidative stress theory of ageing.

Lead-induced DNA damage in Vicia faba root cells: Potential involvement of oxidative stress [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Genotoxic effects of lead (0–20 µM) were investigated in whole-plant roots of Vicia faba L., grown hydroponically under controlled conditions. Lead-induced DNA damage in V.

Potentiation of an antimalarial oxidant drug [PDF]

open access: yesAntimicrobial Agents and Chemotherapy, 1997
In a previous report we described the synergistic antimalarial interaction between two structurally similar compounds, rufigallol and exifone. To explain this phenomenon, we proposed that exifone is transformed inside the parasitized erythrocyte into a xanthone with potent antimalarial properties.

Mapping the evolution of mitochondrial complex I through structural variation

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Respiratory complex I (CI) is crucial for bioenergetic metabolism in many prokaryotes and eukaryotes. It is composed of a conserved set of core subunits and additional accessory subunits that vary depending on the organism. Here, we categorize CI subunits from available structures to map the evolution of CI across eukaryotes. Respiratory complex I (CI)

Anti bacterial Effectiveness of Electro-Chemically Activated (ECA) Water as a Root Canal Irrigant- An In-vitro Comparative Study [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Clinical and Diagnostic Research, 2016
Introduction: Sodium hypochlorite, is the irrigant of choice for many clinicians, but its strong toxic and damaging effects on vital periapical tissues is always a matter of concern. So, the search for a root canal irrigant with a broad antimicrobial

Oxidative stress mechanisms as potential therapeutic targets in chronic kidney disease

open access: yesStudia Medyczne, 2022
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a gradual loss of kidney function over time, leading to the development of kidney failure. CKD is a consequence of common civilization diseases, such as arterial hypertension and diabetes, as well as primary kidney and ...

E2F1 Suppresses Oxidative Metabolism and Endothelial Differentiation of Bone Marrow Progenitor Cells [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
RATIONALE: The majority of current cardiovascular cell therapy trials use bone marrow progenitor cells (BM PCs) and achieve only modest efficacy; the limited potential of these cells to differentiate into endothelial-lineage cells is one of the major ...
