Zonal heterogeneity of peroxisome proliferation and morphology in rat liver after gemfibrozil treatment.

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 1989
The effect of gemfibrozil on the fine structure of peroxisomes across the rat liver lobule was investigated by light and electron microscopy using the alkaline diaminobenzidine (DAB) medium for the visualization of catalase peroxidatic activity. The oral

Peroxisomes are required for lipid metabolism and muscle function in Drosophila melanogaster. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
Peroxisomes are ubiquitous organelles that perform lipid and reactive oxygen species metabolism. Defects in peroxisome biogenesis cause peroxisome biogenesis disorders (PBDs).

Degradation of plant peroxisomes by autophagy

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2014
Peroxisomes play a critical role in many metabolic pathways during the plant life cycle. It has been proposed that the transition between different types of peroxisomes involves the degradation of obsolete peroxisomal enzymes via proteolytic activities ...

Peroxisome Metabolism in Cancer

open access: yesCells, 2020
Peroxisomes are metabolic organelles involved in lipid metabolism and cellular redoxbalance. Peroxisomal function is central to fatty acid oxidation, ether phospholipid synthesis, bile acidsynthesis, and reactive oxygen species homeostasis.

Research progress on the metabolic functions and protein compositions of plant peroxisomes

open access: yes浙江大学学报. 农业与生命科学版
Peroxisomes are multifunctional organelles that are ubiquitous in eukaryotes. In plants, peroxisomes have very diverse functions in primary and secondary metabolisms and play important roles in plant growth and development as well as in stress response ...

A critical reflection on the principles of peroxisome formation in yeast

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2014
We have evaluated the current knowledge on peroxisome proliferation in yeast. In wild-type cells, peroxisomes multiply predominantly by fission at conditions that require peroxisome function(s) for growth.

Implication of peroxisomes and mitochondria in the halophyte Cakile maritima tolerance to salinity stress

open access: yesBiologia Plantarum, 2019
The role of mitochondria and peroxisomes in the tolerance of the halophyte Cakile martima to salt stress was studied. The plants were subjected to 0, 100, and 200 mM NaCl for 5 weeks.

Peroxisomal Diseases

open access: yesAnnals of Medicine, 1992
The peroxisomal diseases, which are rare inborn metabolic errors, often have serious effects on the well being of the individual and many of them are fatal at an early age. The Zellweger cerebro-hepato-renal syndrome represents a group consisting of diseases with a generalized loss of peroxisomal functions and is considered as a prototype for ...

Role of peroxisomes in the oxidative injury induced by 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid in leaves of pea plants

open access: yesBiologia Plantarum, 2011
The role of peroxisomes in the oxidative injury induced by the auxin herbicide 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D) in leaves of pea (Pisum sativum L.) plants was studied.

Bile acid synthesis in rat liver peroxisomes: metabolism of 26-hydroxycholesterol to 3 beta-hydroxy-5-cholenoic acid

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 1985
Rat liver peroxisomes have been found to oxidize 26-hydroxycholesterol, the product of cholesterol C-26 hydroxylation to 3 beta-hydroxy-5-cholenoic acid.
