Molecular characterization of a manganese superoxide dismutase and copper/zinc superoxide dismutase from the mussel Mytilus galloprovincialis

open access: yesFish and Shellfish Immunology, 2013
The full-length cDNA sequences coding respectively for a manganese superoxide dismutase (Mg-MnSOD) and copper/zinc superoxide dismutase (Mg-CuZnSOD) were cloned from Mytilus galloprovincialis.

Product of extracellular-superoxide dismutase catalysis

open access: yesFEBS Letters, 1985
Extracellular-superoxide dismutase is a tetrameric enzyme containing four copper atoms. It has previously been shown to catalyse the decay of the Superoxide radical, but the resulting product was not determined.

Superoxide dismutase in leukocytes [PDF]

open access: yesFEBS Letters, 1974
1 ] or NBT [ 141 in the xanthine-xanthine oxidase reaction. The reduction of NBT and cytochrome c was followed at 560 and 550 nm respectively. One unit of SOD activity is defined as the amount of enzyme that causes a decrease of the optical density from 0.025 to 0.0125 in 1 min using 1 cm light path cuvette.

Enhanced mitochondrial superoxide scavenging does not Improve muscle insulin action in the high fat-fed mouse [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Improving mitochondrial oxidant scavenging may be a viable strategy for the treatment of insulin resistance and diabetes. Mice overexpressing the mitochondrial matrix isoform of superoxide dismutase (sod2tg mice) and/or transgenically expressing catalase

Superoxide Dismutases and Superoxide Reductases

open access: yesChemical Reviews, 2014
Superoxide, O2•–, is formed in all living organisms that come in contact with air, and, depending upon its biological context, it may act as a signaling agent, a toxic species, or a harmless intermediate that decomposes spontaneously. Its levels are limited in vivo by two different types of enzymes, superoxide reductase (SOR) and superoxide dismutase ...

The trail to superoxide dismutase [PDF]

open access: yesProtein Science, 1998
City College of New York + Cornell Medical School + Duke. While a youngster, I was enthralled by the miracle of insect metamorphosis and followed the transformations of pet caterpillars to pupae and then to gloriously beautiful butterflies and moths. This led naturally to an interest in biology. but mere description was not totally satisfying.

Influence of hyperhomocysteinemia on the cellular redox state - Impact on homocysteine-induced endothelial dysfunction [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
Hyperhomocysteinemia is an independent risk factor for the development of atherosclerosis. An increasing body of evidence has implicated oxidative stress as being contributory to homocysteines deleterious effects on the vasculature.

Polymeric membranes with selective permeability : shielding of an antioxidant enzyme [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
In this work we designed an antioxidant nanoreactor based on the encapsulation of CuZnSOD in amphiphilic copolymer nanovesicles. The nanovesicles are formed by self-assembly of amphiphilic copolymer poly-(2-methyloxazoline)-poly- (dimethylsiloxane ...

Pergolide can induce soluble Superoxide dismutase in rat striata

open access: yes, 1992
Pergolide, a dopamine receptor agonist, given daily i.p. for three weeks at 0.04mg/kg and 0.4mg/kg, significantly induced soluble (Cu-Zn) superoxide dismutase in the rat striatum, while having no effect on the mitochondrial (Mn) form of the enzyme.

The tetrazolium dyes MTS and XTT provide new quantitative assays for superoxide and superoxide dismutase

open access: yes, 1997
The tetrazolium dyes MTS and XTT were reduced to their soluble formazans by superoxide radical anions (O2_) produced by the oxidation of xanthine by xanthine oxidase under standard conditions. These reactions were compared to the well-known reductions of
