Detoxification of hydrogen peroxide is a fundamental aspect of the cellular antioxidant
responses in which catalases play a major role. Two differentially regulated catalase genes …

Irradiation applications have been widely distributed in the food industry in the form of
inhibition of sprout and rooting, senescence delay, and eliminating microbial growth. Shelf …

Membrane-associated NADPH oxidase complexes catalyse the production of the
superoxide anion radical from oxygen and NADPH. In mammalian systems, NADPH …

Catalase (CAT) is an important antioxidant enzyme that protects aerobic organisms against
oxidative damage by degrading hydrogen peroxide to oxygen and water. CAT mRNAs have …

Reactive oxygen species are known to have a signalling role in many organisms. In bacteria
and yeast various response systems have evolved to combat oxidative stress which are …

In this study, we reported a full length of catalase gene (designated as MrCat), identified
from the transcriptome database of freshwater prawn Macrobrachium rosenbergii. The …

The efficacy of the widely used chemotherapeutic drug cisplatin is limited by the occurrence
of drug-resistant tumour cells. To fully exploit the potential of this drug in cancer therapy, it is …

Mitochondrial dysfunction has been implicated in the pathology of Parkinson's disease (PD).
In Dictyostelium discoideum, strains with mitochondrial dysfunction present consistent …

Botanicals are widely used as dietary supplements and for the prevention and treatment of
disease. Despite a long history of use, there is generally little evidence supporting the …

Aerobic organisms experience oxidative stress due to generation of reactive oxygen species
during normal aerobic metabolism. In addition, several chemicals also generate reactive …
