Metabolites with Antioxidant Activity from Marine Macroalgae
Antioxidants, 2021 Reactive oxygen species (ROS) attack biological molecules, such as lipids, proteins, enzymes, DNA, and RNA, causing cellular and tissue damage. Hence, the disturbance of cellular antioxidant homeostasis can lead to oxidative stress and the onset of a ...

Current Biology, 2020 Scavenger receptors (SRs) are a large family of cell-surface receptors that are diverse in their structure and biological function and are divided into different classes. SRs can bind to a range of ligands and enhance the elimination of altered-self or non-self targets.

To scavenge or not to scavenge: that is the question [PDF]
Acta Crystallographica Section D Biological Crystallography, 2009 Analysis of a series of diffraction data sets measured from four native as well as four nicotinic acid-soaked crystals of trypsin at 100 K shows a high variability in radiation-sensitivity among individual crystals for both nicotinic acid-soaked and native crystals.

To scavenge or not to scavenge, that is STILL the question [PDF]
Journal of Synchrotron Radiation, 2012 An extensive radiation chemistry literature would suggest that the addition of certain radical scavengers might mitigate the effects of radiation damage during protein crystallography diffraction data collection. However, attempts to demonstrate and quantify such an amelioration and its dose dependence have not yielded consistent results, either at ...

Scavenging of Black Carbon Aerosols by Radiation Fog in Urban Central China
Atmosphere, 2022 Radiation fog episodes are characterized by aerosol radiative properties measured at Hefei in urban central China, which hopefully benefits numerical weather prediction and air quality improvement for local governments. In this study, a high mean aerosol

Proceedings of the 25th international conference on Machine learning - ICML '08, 2008 We examine the problem of evaluating a policy in the contextual bandit setting using only observations collected during the execution of another policy. We show that policy evaluation can be impossible if the exploration policy chooses actions based on the side information provided at each time step.
