Inhibition of TXNRD or SOD1 overcomes NRF2-mediated resistance to β-lapachone [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Alterations in the NRF2/KEAP1 pathway result in the constitutive activation of NRF2, leading to the aberrant induction of antioxidant and detoxification enzymes, including NQO1.

Folding of Cu, Zn superoxide dismutase and Familial Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
Cu,Zn superoxide dismutase (SOD1) has been implicated in the familial form of the neurodegenerative disease Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS). It has been suggested that mutant mediated SOD1 misfolding/aggregation is an integral part of the pathology ...

Paradoxical roles of antioxidant enzymes:Basic mechanisms and health implications [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Reactive oxygen species (ROS) and reactive nitrogen species (RNS) are generated from aerobic metabolism, as a result of accidental electron leakage as well as regulated enzymatic processes.

Broad clinical phenotypes associated with TAR-DNA binding protein (TARDBP) mutations in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
The finding of TDP-43 as a major component of ubiquitinated protein inclusions in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) has led to the identification of 30 mutations in the transactive response-DNA binding protein (TARDBP) gene, encoding TDP-43.

A balancing act: mTOR integrates nutrient signals to regulate redox-dependent growth and survival through SOD1

open access: yesMolecular & Cellular Oncology, 2018
Maintaining cellular redox is critical for growth, metabolism and survival in response to changing environments. How nutrients regulate this process is a long-standing fundamental question in cell biology.

Multifaceted roles of superoxide dismutases (SODs) in cellular homeostasis and cancer progression: Redox regulation and therapeutic implications [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Medical Biochemistry
Superoxide dismutases (SODs) are critical metalloenzymes that regulate cellular redox homeostasis by catalysing the dismutation of superoxide radicals into hydrogen peroxide and oxygen, thereby mitigating oxidative stress.

Non-enzymatic role of SOD1 in intestinal stem cell growth

open access: yesCell Death and Disease, 2022
Superoxide dismutase 1 (SOD1) modulates intestinal barrier integrity and intestinal homeostasis as an antioxidant enzyme. Intestinal homeostasis is maintained by the intestinal stem cells (ISCs).

Neuron-Specific HuR-Deficient Mice Spontaneously Develop Motor Neuron Disease [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Human Ag R (HuR) is an RNA binding protein in the ELAVL protein family. To study the neuron-specific function of HuR, we generated inducible, neuron-specific HuR-deficient mice of both sexes.

Defective axonal transport in motor neuron disease [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Several recent studies have highlighted the role of axonal transport in the pathogenesis of motor neuron diseases. Mutations in genes that control microtubule regulation and dynamics have been shown to cause motor neuron degeneration in mice and in a ...

Does wild-type Cu/Zn-superoxide dismutase have pathogenic roles in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis?

open access: yesTranslational Neurodegeneration, 2020
Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is characterized by adult-onset progressive degeneration of upper and lower motor neurons. Increasing numbers of genes are found to be associated with ALS; among those, the first identified gene, SOD1 coding a Cu/Zn ...
