Redox homeostasis: The Golden Mean of healthy living
The notion that electrophiles serve as messengers in cell signaling is now widely accepted. Nonetheless, major issues restrain acceptance of redox homeostasis and redox signaling as components of maintenance of a normal physiological steady state. The first is that redox signaling requires sudden switching on of oxidant production and bypassing of antioxidant mechanisms rather than a continuous...
متن کاملGolden Mean Subshift Revised Introduction
We study subshifts of nite type on f0;1g Z 2 of the form where in a nite window there is always either one on no 1's present. The problem is converted to a tiling/covering problem on the (nZ) 2 lattice and its shifts. In this setup we consider the uniqueness of the equilibrium measure, density of 1's at equilibrium and the topological entropy. Further insight is achieved by realizing that the e...
متن کاملRedox regulated peroxisome homeostasis
Peroxisomes are ubiquitous organelles present in nearly all eukaryotic cells. Conserved functions of peroxisomes encompass beta-oxidation of fatty acids and scavenging of reactive oxygen species generated from diverse peroxisomal metabolic pathways. Peroxisome content, number, and size can change quickly in response to environmental and/or developmental cues. To achieve efficient peroxisome hom...
متن کاملLung redox homeostasis: emerging concepts.
This symposium was organized to present some aspects of current research pertaining to lung redox function. Focuses of the symposium were on roles of pulmonary endothelial NADPH oxidase, xanthine oxidase (XO)/xanthine dehydrogenase (XDH), heme oxygenase (HO), transplasma membrane electron transport (TPMET), and the zinc binding protein metallothionein (MT) in the propagation and/or protection o...
متن کاملNon-standard Visualizations of Fibonacci Numbers and the Golden Mean
Fibonacci numbers and the Golden Mean are numbers and thus 0-dimensional objects. Usually, they are visualized in the Euclidean plane using squares and rectangles in a spiral arrangement. The Golden Mean, as a ratio, is an affine geometric concept and therefore Euclidean visualizations are not mandatory. There are attempts to visualize the Fibonacci number sequence and Golden Spirals in higher ...
