Abstract:
The present work was aimed to obtain information about age-dependent changes of gamma-glutamyltransferase (GGT) activity and the levels of non-protein sulfhydryl compounds (NPSH) in rat kidneys. In addition, protein-bound cysteine (PB-Cys), sulfane sulfur compounds and reactive oxygen species (ROS) were estimated. The results indicate that the activity of GGT and NPSH levels in the kidneys are reduced with age. At the same time, a significant increase in the level of protein-bound cysteine was observed. Simultaneously, the content of sulfane sulfur compounds was increased in the group of the o

Abstract:
Conditions of achieving the maximal accumulation of sulfhydryl metabolites in the leaves of tobacco were explored. Simultaneous production of bacterial O-acetylserine (thiol)-lyase and serine acetyltransferase resulted in the increased thiols contents as compared to single transformants and controls. However, leaf discs feeding experiments differently affected thiols concentration in different plant groups and suggested that the most promising strategy to obtain plants with a high level of non-protein thiol-containing compounds might be sulfate feeding to plants overproducing serine acetyltran

Abstract:
One of the actual problems of modern medicine is joint disease. Among them, osteoarthritis occupies an important place. The formation of osteoarthritis is accompanied by the development of inflammation, which leads to damage to all structures of the joint. An important role in inflammatory processes is played by the intensification of free radical processes. As the disease develops, the joints lose their mobility, which leads to a decrease in the quality of life of patients and the development of disability. In this regard, it is important to search for drugs that have regenerative, anti-infla

Redox regulation of DNA-binding proteins through the reversible oxidation of key cysteine sulfhydryl groups has been demonstrated to occur in vitro for a range of transcription factors. The direct redox regulation of DNA binding has not been described in vivo, possibly because most protein thiol groups are strongly buffered against oxidation by the highly reduced intracellular environment mediated by glutathione, thioredoxin, and associated pathways. For this reason, only accessible protein thiol groups with high thiol-disulfide oxidation potentials are likely to be responsive to intracellular

The aim of this research was to determine the intensity of pro-oxidative processes and the content of GSH, as well as antioxidative enzymes: superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase (CAT), gluthatione peroxidase (GSH-Px), and the total antioxidative status (TAS) in patients with spontaneous abortions. Methods. A total of 120 patients were involved in the research (70 spontaneous abortions and 50 healthy pregnancies). The patients were divided into groups: 35 patients with incomplete and complete spontaneous abortion

Intestinal mucositis is an important toxic side effect of 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) treatment.Saccharomyces boulardiiis known to protect from intestinal injury via an effect on the gastrointestinal microbiota. The objective of the present study was to evaluate the effect ofS. boulardiion intestinal mucositis induced by 5-FU in a murine model. Mice were divided into saline, saline (control)+5-FU or 5-FU+S. boulardii(16 × 109colony-forming units/kg) treatment groups, and the jejunum and ileum were removed after killing of mice for the evaluation of histopathology, myeloperoxidase (MPO) activity, and

Abstract:
In the past 30 years the basic features of Na+ absorption by epithelia have been unraveled and generally accepted cell models have been established. However, these cell models of transepithelial Na+ transport represent, for the most part, a static view of cell function, i.e., all transport parameters are assumed to be in a steady state. Today the focus is on the dynamic properties of epithelia, the non-steady-state condition, and the adaptation to environmental or transport changes. This review deals with mechanisms intrinsic to the epithelium that regulate apical membrane Na+ permeability in

Abstract Human platelets synthesize and store functionally silent tissue factor (TF) which has procoagulant activity (PCA) after platelet activation. We now explored the location of inactive and active forms of TF and mechanisms of activation. We reported that resting, non-permeabilized human platelets express scant surface TF, which was strikingly enhanced and co-localized with GPIbα after stimulation (Blood2007;109:5242). The externalization of TF was confirmed by immunoprecipitation (Ip) from biotinylated membranes before and after platelet activation. Moreover, TF and GPIbα co-precipitated

Abstract:
Abstract Tissue factor (TF) is the cellular receptor for plasma clotting factor VIIa, and the formation of TF-VIIa complexes on cell surfaces trigger the coagulation cascade and cell signaling. It is a well-known fact that only a small fraction of TF at the cell surface is coagulantly active whereas a majority of TF on the cell surface is non-functional (cryptic). However, it is unclear, at present, how the coagulant active TF differs from the cryptic form, and mechanisms involved in TF activation. Recent studies show that a thiol oxidizing agent, HgCl2, increases TF coagulant activity on the

The genus Indigofera (Fabaceae) is used in folk medicine to treat gastrointestinal pain. In this study, we investigated the antiulcerogenic properties of Indigofera truxillensis Kunth. Oral administration of MeOH extract did not produce any signals of acute toxicity. The antiulcerogenic activity was assessed in different models of acute gastric ulcers (100% ethanol, piroxicam 30 mg.kg-1, hypothermic restraint stress and pylorus ligature) in mice and rats. The animals were treated with the drugs lanzoprazole (30 mg.kg-1) or cimetidine (100 mg.kg-1) as positive controls depending on the performe

Abstract Mammalian sperm carry a variety of highly condensed insoluble protein structures such as the perinuclear theca, the fibrous sheath and the outer dense fibers, which are essential to sperm function. We studied the role of cysteine rich secretory protein 2 (CRISP2); a known inducer of non-pathological protein amyloids, in pig sperm with a variety of techniques. CRISP2, which is synthesized during spermatogenesis, was localized by confocal immunofluorescent imaging in the tail and in the post-acrosomal region of the sperm head.

Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is one of the most common forms of liver disease, which is associated with several etiological factors, including stress and dysfunction in oxidative metabolism. However, studies showed that aerobic exercise training (AET) can combat the oxidative stress (OS) and improves mitochondrial functionality in the NAFLD. To test the hypothesis that AET improves oxidative metabolism and antioxidant defense in the liver of ob/ob mice. Male ob/ob mice with eight weeks old were separated into two groups: the sedentary group (S), n=7, and the trained group (T), n=7

A high pressure of 250 MPa was given to pink perch mince samples added with and without MTGase enzyme, for a holding time of 12 min and a setting condition of 25 °C for 30 min was given prior and after the treatments. Nine random experiments (T1 to T9) were made against high pressure and cooking and analysed its textural and functional properties. Addition of MTGase and setting conditions had significant effect
