Superoxide dismutase and neurological disorders
IBRO Neuroscience ReportsSuperoxide dismutase (SOD) is a common antioxidant enzyme found majorly in living cells. The main physiological role of SOD is detoxification and maintain the redox balance, acts as a first line of defence against Reactive nitrogen species (RNS ...

Deciphering the catalytic mechanism of superoxide dismutase activity of carbon dot nanozyme
Nature Communications, 2023 Superoxide dismutase (SOD) nanozymes show mitigating effect on oxidative stress-related diseases, but are limited by their modest activity. Here, the authors report a carbon dot SOD nanozyme with catalytic activity matching natural enzymes and unveil its

The Applications and Mechanisms of Superoxide Dismutase in Medicine, Food, and Cosmetics
Antioxidants, 2023 Superoxide dismutase (SOD) is a class of enzymes that restrict the biological oxidant cluster enzyme system in the body, which can effectively respond to cellular oxidative stress, lipid metabolism, inflammation, and oxidation.

Insights into Manganese Superoxide Dismutase and Human Diseases
International Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2022 Redox equilibria and the modulation of redox signalling play crucial roles in physiological processes. Overproduction of reactive oxygen species (ROS) disrupts the body’s antioxidant defence, compromising redox homeostasis and increasing oxidative stress,

Superoxide dismutase nanozymes: an emerging star for anti-oxidation.
Journal of materials chemistry. B, 2021 Superoxide dismutases (SODs) are a group of metalloenzymes that catalyze the dismutation of superoxide radicals (O2˙-) into hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) and oxygen (O2). As the first line of defense against reactive oxygen species (ROS)-mediated damage, SODs
