Free Radicals in the Physiological Control of Cell Function
At high concentrations, free radicals and radical-derived, nonradical reactive species are hazardous for living organisms and damage all major cellular constituents. At moderate...
Involvement of Caspases in Neutrophil Apoptosis: Regulation by Reactive Oxygen Species
Abstract Human neutrophils have a short half-life and are believed to die by apoptosis or programmed cell death both in vivo and in vitro. We found that caspases are activated i...
Heterochronic Mutants of the Nematode <i>Caenorhabditis elegans</i>
Mutations in the Caenorhabditis elegans genes lin-14 , lin-28 , and lin-29 cause heterochronic developmental defects: the timing of specific developmental events in several tiss...
Phosphatidylinositol 3-Kinase and Xanthine Oxidase Regulate Nitric Oxide and Reactive Oxygen Species Productions by Apoptotic Lymphocyte Microparticles in Endothelial Cells
Abstract Microparticles (MPs) are membrane vesicles released during cell activation and apoptosis. We have previously shown that MPs from apoptotic T cells induce endothelial dy...
Oxidative stress, aging, and diseases
Reactive oxygen and nitrogen species (RONS) are produced by several endogenous and exogenous processes, and their negative effects are neutralized by antioxidant defenses. Oxida...
