Tolerance to Stress Combination in Tomato Plants: New Insights in the Protective Role of Melatonin

open access: yesMolecules, 2018
Abiotic stresses such as drought, heat or salinity are major causes of yield loss worldwide. Recent studies have revealed that the acclimation of plants to a combination of different environmental stresses is unique and therefore cannot be directly ...

Obesity in a model of haploinsufficiency uncovers a causal role for lipid-derived aldehydes in human metabolic disease and cardiomyopathy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Lipid peroxides and their reactive aldehyde derivatives (LPPs) have been linked to obesity-related pathologies, but whether they have a causal role has remained unclear. Glutathione peroxidase 4 (GPx4) is a selenoenzyme that selectively neutralizes lipid

Lethal damage to endothelial cells by oxidized low density lipoprotein: role of selenoperoxidases in cytoprotection against lipid hydroperoxide- and iron-mediated reactions.

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 1993
Oxidized low density lipoprotein (LDLox) is believed to be an important contributor to endothelial cytodamage and atherogenesis. The purpose of this study was to examine the role of glutathione (GSH) and GSH-dependent selenoperoxidases in cytoprotection ...

Effects of selenide chitosan sulfate on glutathione system in hepatocytes and specific pathogen-free chickens

open access: yesPoultry Science, 2020
This study aimed to investigate the effects of selenide chitosan sulfate (Se-CTS-S) on glutathione (GSH) system in hepatocytes and chickens. Chitosan, sodium selenite (Na2SeO3), selenide chitosan, chitosan sulfate (CTS-S), and Se-CTS-S were added to the ...

Study on the Properties and Synergistic Antioxidant Effects of Novel Bifunctional Fusion Proteins Expressed Using the UTuT6 System

open access: yesAntioxidants, 2023
Important antioxidant enzymes, glutathione peroxidase (GPx) and superoxide dismutase (SOD), are involved in maintaining redox balance. They can protect each other and result in more efficiently removing excessive reactive oxygen species (ROS), protecting

Rat liver antioxidant response to iron and copper overloads [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
The rat liver antioxidant response to Fe and Cu overloads (0–60 mg/kg) was studied. Dose- and time-responses were determined and summarized by t1/2 and C50, the time and the liver metal content for half maximal oxidative responses.
