Thiols are important molecules in the environment and in biological processes. Cysteine
(Cys), homocysteine (Hcy), glutathione (GSH) and hydrogen sulfide (H2S) play critical roles …

Metallic and metallic oxide nanoparticles (NP s) have been increasingly used for various bio‐
applications owing to their unique physiochemical properties in terms of conductivity, optical …

Acute kidney injury is a common complication of rhabdomyolysis. A better understanding of
this syndrome may be useful to identify novel therapeutic targets because there is no …

Metabolic syndrome (MetS) is defined as a constellation of many metabolic disorders such
as hypertension, impaired glucose tolerance, dyslipidemia and obesity, being this last …

Mitochondrial respiratory chain complexes I and III have been shown to produce superoxide
but the exact contribution and localization of individual sites have remained unclear. We …

Here we report a new rhodamine-based fluorescent probe containing a selenium− nitrogen
bond for detecting thiols based on the nucleophilic substitution of sulfhydryl. The probe was …

Methylglyoxal can yield advanced glycation end products via nonenzymatic glycation of
proteins. Whether methylglyoxal contributes to the pathogenesis of hypertension has not …

Nanoparticle surface chemistry is known to play a crucial role in interactions with cells and
their related cytotoxic effects. As inhalation is a major route of exposure to nanoparticles, we …

How the brain's antioxidant defenses adapt to changing demand is incompletely
understood. Here we show that synaptic activity is coupled, via the NMDA receptor …

Abstract Glutathione-S-transferases (GSTs) are one of the key enzymes that mediate phase
II of cellular detoxification. The aim of our study was a comprehensive characterization of …
