Spinal cord homogenates from SOD1 familial amyotrophic lateral sclerosis induce SOD1 aggregation in living cells.

PLoS ONE, 2017
Mutant Cu/Zn superoxide dismutase (SOD1) can confer its misfolding on wild-type SOD1 in living cells; the propagation of misfolding can also be transmitted between cells in vitro.

The hypoxic transcription factor KlMga2 mediates the response to oxidative stress and influences longevity in the yeast Kluyveromyces lactis [PDF]

, 2019
Hypoxia is defined as the decline of oxygen availability, depending on environmental supply and cellular consumption rate. The decrease in O2 results in reduction of available energy in facultative aerobes.

Redox environment is an intracellular factor to operate distinct pathways for aggregation of Cu,Zn-superoxide dismutase in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis

Frontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2013
Dominant mutations in Cu,Zn-superoxide dismutase (SOD1) cause a familial form of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (fALS). Misfolding and aggregation of mutant SOD1 proteins are a pathological hallmark of SOD1-related fALS cases; however, the molecular ...

Missense-depleted regions in population exomes implicate ras superfamily nucleotide-binding protein alteration in patients with brain malformation. [PDF]

, 2016
Genomic sequence interpretation can miss clinically relevant missense variants for several reasons. Rare missense variants are numerous in the exome and difficult to prioritise. Affected genes may also not have existing disease association.

4‐Dimethylamino‐1,8‐Naphthalimide as a Fluorescence Signal Amplification for Site Selective and in Situ Probing of the Hydroxyl Radical

Chemistry – A European Journal, EarlyView.
4‐dimethylamino‐1,8‐naphthalimide (NMI) as new fluorescence‐responsive tool for HO• detection. Proof of concept illustrating that NMI selectively probes HO• produced by Cu‐bound to Aβ16 in presence of scavengers with an amplified response. Abstract Overproduction of reactive oxygen species (ROS) is involved in several diseases.

Evolving Real‐World Data and Evidence Use for New Drugs and Regenerative Medical Products Approvals in Japan—An Analysis of the 6‐Year Trend

Clinical Pharmacology &Therapeutics, EarlyView.
Several regulatory initiatives have been made to clarify the acceptability and requirements of real‐world data and real‐world evidence (RWD/E) for the benefit/risk assessment of new medical products in Japan. The objectives of this review were to characterize the use of RWD/E in regulatory applications of new medical products and to describe the ...

SOD1: A Candidate Gene for Keratoconus

Investigative Opthalmology & Visual Science, 2006
To screen superoxide dismutase 1 (SOD1) on chromosome 21 as a possible candidate gene for familial keratoconus (KC).Total genomic DNA was extracted from the blood of 15 different KC families and 156 unaffected subjects. All five exons of the SOD1 gene were sequenced.

The emerging role of Nrf2 in heart failure: From cardioprotection to therapeutic approaches

ESC Heart Failure, EarlyView.
Nrf2 signalling is impaired in heart failure, contributing to oxidative stress, mitochondrial dysfunction, and ferroptosis, which drive neurohormonal activation, inflammation, and ischaemia‐reperfusion injury. This loss of Nrf2 activity exacerbates hypertension, diabetic cardiomyopathy, and cardiotoxicity, accelerating progression to overt heart ...

SOD1 oxidation and formation of soluble aggregates in yeast: Relevance to sporadic ALS development

Redox Biology, 2014
Misfolding and aggregation of copper–zinc superoxide dismutase (Sod1) are observed in neurodegenerative diseases such as amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). Mutations in Sod1 lead to familial ALS (FALS), which is a late-onset disease.
