Sub-toxic Ethanol Exposure Modulates Gene Expression and Enzyme Activity of Antioxidant Systems to Provide Neuroprotection in Hippocampal HT22 Cells [PDF]
Ethanol is known to cause severe systemic damage often explained as secondary to oxidative stress. Brain is particularly vulnerable to ethanol-induced reactive oxygen species (ROS) because the high amounts of lipids, and because nerve cell membranes ...

This work proposes ferroptosis as a mechanistic driver of age‐related muscle dysfunction, whereby iron dyshomeostasis and impaired antioxidant capacity promote lipid peroxidation, and eventually trigger ferroptosis, leading to muscle wasting, and ultimately contributing to weakness and functional decline with aging.

An eQTL analysis of partial resistance to Puccinia hordei in barley.
BackgroundGenetic resistance to barley leaf rust caused by Puccinia hordei involves both R genes and quantitative trait loci. The R genes provide higher but less durable resistance than the quantitative trait loci. Consequently, exploring quantitative or

Oxidative stress assays for disease risk stratification [PDF]
Despite the fact that oxidative stress is a significant aetiological factor in several degenerative diseases, its measurement is rarely a part of "routine analyses" performed in hospital clinical chemistry laboratories. This situation is likely to change,

Characterization of human and mouse peroxiredoxin IV: Evidence for inhibition by Prx-IV of epidermal growth factor- and p53-induced reactive oxygen species [PDF]
The aim of this study was to identify and characterize human and mouse Prx-IV. We identified mouse peroxiredoxin IV (Prx-IV) by virtue of sequence homology to its human ortholog previously called AOE372.
