Reactive oxygen species deglycosilate glomerular alpha-dystroglycan.
In the kidney, dystroglycan (DG) has been shown to cover the basolateral and apical membranes of the podocyte. alpha-DG is heavily glycosilated, which is important for its binding to laminin and agrin in the glomerular basement membrane. Furthermore, alpha-DG is negatively charged, which maintains the filtration slit open. Reactive oxygen species (ROS) are known to degrade and depolymerize carb...
متن کاملReactive oxygen species mediate TNF-α-induced inflammatory response in bone marrow mesenchymal cells
Objective(s): It is generally believed that the inflammatory response in bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) transplantation leads to poor survival and unsatisfactory effects, and is mainly mediated by cytokines, including interleukin-1β (IL-1β), tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α). In this study, we explored the mechanisms underlying the TNF-α-induced inflammatory ...
متن کاملO 22: Reactive Oxygen Species and Epilepsy
Seizure activity has been proposed to result in the generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS), which then contribute to seizure-induced neuronal damage and eventually cell death. Although the mechanisms of seizure-induced ROS generation are unclear, mitochondria and cellular calcium overload have been proposed to have a crucial role. We aim to determine the sources of seizure-induced ROS and ...
متن کاملI-3: Reactive Oxygen Species: A Dilemma for
Spermatozoa are very special cells and constantly exposed to the interphase between oxidative stress through high amounts of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and leukocytes, and reduction by means of scavengers and antioxidants. Considering the very special functions of spermatozoa as being the only cells with such high polarization and exerting their functions outside the body, even in a differen...
متن کاملEffect of Laurus nobilis L. Essential Oil and its Main Components on α-glucosidase and Reactive Oxygen Species Scavenging Activity
The present study was designed to determine the effects of the essential oil of Laurusnobilis L. (Lauraceae) and its three main components on α-glucosidase and reactive oxygenspecies scavenging activity. The chemical composition of the essential oil from Laurus nobilisL. leaves was analyzed by GC/GC-MS and resulted in the identification of 29 compounds,representing 99.18% of the total oil. 1,8-...
