Reduction of Cysteine Sulfinic Acid by Sulfiredoxin Is Specific to 2-Cys Peroxiredoxins [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Biological Chemistry, 2005
Cysteine residues of certain peroxiredoxins (Prxs) undergo reversible oxidation to sulfinic acid (Cys-SO2H) and the reduction reaction is catalyzed by sulfiredoxin (Srx). Specific Cys residues of various other proteins are also oxidized to sulfinic acid, suggesting that formation of Cys-SO2H might be a novel posttranslational modification that ...

Dietary influences on chemotherapy sensitivity and cardiotoxicity modulated by IRE1 targeting in triple‐negative breast cancer in female mice

open access: yesPhysiological Reports, Volume 13, Issue 18, September 2025.
Abstract Triple‐negative breast cancer (TNBC) predominantly affects young and minority women, with cytotoxic chemotherapy regimens causing severe side effects, including chronic cardiac dysfunction. Obesity worsens TNBC survival. Inositol‐requiring enzyme‐1 (IRE1), a key arm of the unfolded protein response (UPR), influences tumor progression.

Evidence for the Formation of a Covalent Thiosulfinate Intermediate with Peroxiredoxin in the Catalytic Mechanism of Sulfiredoxin [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Biological Chemistry, 2008
The typical 2-Cys peroxiredoxins are thiol-peroxidases involved in the physiology of hydrogen peroxide not only as a toxic but also as a signaling molecule. Coordination of these functions depends on the sulfinylation of the catalytic Cys, a modification reversed by ATP-dependent sulfiredoxin, which specifically reduces the sulfinic acid group of ...

Oxidative Stress in Antigen Processing and Presentation

open access: yesMedComm – Oncology, Volume 4, Issue 2, June 2025.
Reactive oxygen species (ROS) play a crucial role in antigen processing and presentation, essential for linking innate and adaptive immunity. While balanced ROS levels promote immune function, excess ROS can disrupt antigen recognition, resulting in immune dysfunction.

Balancing anti-inflammatory and anti-oxidant responses in murine bone marrow derived macrophages.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2017
RationaleThe underlying pathophysiology of bronchopulmonary dysplasia includes a macrophage-mediated host response orchestrated by anti-inflammatory peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma (PPARγ) and anti-oxidant nuclear factor (erythroid ...

S‐Methyl Methanethiosulfonate, the Main Human Metabolite of S‐Methyl‐L‐Cysteine Sulfoxide, Alters Energy Metabolism in Prostate Cancer Cells

open access: yesMolecular Nutrition &Food Research, Volume 69, Issue 8, April 2025.
In this study, we show that the sulfur compound commonly found in cruciferous and allium vegetables and the main human metabolite of S‐methyl‐L‐cysteine sulfoxide, called S‐methyl methanethiosulfonate (MMTSO), alters energy metabolism in DU145 prostate cancer cells.

MOLECULAR MECHANISM OF THE REDUCTION OF CYSTEINE SULFINIC ACID OF PEROXIREDOXIN TO CYSTEINE BY MAMMALIAN SULFIREDOXIN [PDF]

open access: yesThe FASEB Journal, 2006
Among many proteins with cysteine sulfinic acid (Cys–SO2H) residues, the sulfinic forms of certain peroxiredoxins (Prxs) are selectively reduced by sulfiredoxin (Srx) in the presence of ATP. All Srx enzymes contain a conserved cysteine residue. To elucidate the mechanism of the Srx‐catalyzed reaction, we generated various mutants of Srx and examined ...

Prolonging in utero-like oxygenation after birth diminishes oxidative stress in the lung and brain of mice pups

open access: yesRedox Biology, 2013
Background: Fetal-to-neonatal transition is associated with oxidative stress. In preterm infants, immaturity of the antioxidant system favours supplemental oxygen-derived morbidity and mortality.

Proteomic analysis across aged tissues reveals distinct signatures and the crucial involvement of midgut barrier function in the regulation of aging

open access: yesAging Cell, Volume 24, Issue 1, January 2025.
Proteomic analysis reveals that instead of specific proteins, different tissues exhibit common dysregulated functional networks. Specifically, the integrity of the midgut barrier function is compromised during aging, which can be restored through the downregulation of the insulin receptor (InR).

Hyperoxidation of Peroxiredoxin 6 Induces Alteration from Dimeric to Oligomeric State

open access: yesAntioxidants, 2019
Peroxiredoxins(Prdx), the family of non-selenium glutathione peroxidases, are important antioxidant enzymes that defend our system from the toxic reactive oxygen species (ROS).
