Glutathione protects cells and organisms from oxygen species and peroxides and is indispensable for aerobically living organisms. Moreover, it acts against xenobiotics and drugs by the formation and excretion of glutathione S conjugates. In this study, we show that...

Molecular biology of the blood-brain and the blood-cerebrospinal fluid barriers: similarities and differences.

Fluids and barriers of the CNS

Redzic Z.
PMID: 21349151
Fluids Barriers CNS. 2011 Jan 18;8(1):3. doi: 10.1186/2045-8118-8-3.

Efficient processing of information by the central nervous system (CNS) represents an important evolutionary advantage. Thus, homeostatic mechanisms have developed that provide appropriate circumstances for neuronal signaling, including a highly controlled and stable microenvironment. To provide such a milieu...

3,4-Dichloroaniline revisited: A study on the fate of the priority pollutant in a sediment-water system derived from a rice growing region in Italy.

The Science of the total environment

Yuan Y, Zhang P, Schäffer A, Schmidt B.
PMID: 27668853
Sci Total Environ. 2017 Jan 01;574:1012-1020. doi: 10.1016/j.scitotenv.2016.09.099. Epub 2016 Oct 14.

As ultimate sink for xenobiotics released into the environment, sediments play an important role concerning the evaluation of the fate of foreign compounds. 3,4-Dichloroaniline (3,4-DCA) is a degradation product of herbicide propanil and some urea herbicides. Propanil was extensively...

OBJECTIVE: Betel leaf combined with areca nut is known as betel quid pan masala (PM), and tobacco with areca nut, catechu and lime is pan masala (PMT) blended with gulkhand. These narcotics are popular among young and old individuals....

Role of the Aryl Hydrocarbon Receptor in Colon Neoplasia.

Cancers

Xie G, Raufman JP.
PMID: 26264025
Cancers (Basel). 2015 Jul 31;7(3):1436-46. doi: 10.3390/cancers7030847.

For both men and women, colorectal cancer (CRC) is the second leading cause of cancer death in the United States, primarily as a consequence of limited therapies for metastatic disease. The aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR) is a ligand-dependent transcription...

Identification of deleterious nsSNPs in α, μ, π and θ class of GST family and their influence on protein structure.

Genomics data

Yadav P, Chatterjee A, Bhattacharjee A.
PMID: 26484073
Genom Data. 2014 May 09;2:66-72. doi: 10.1016/j.gdata.2014.03.004. eCollection 2014 Dec.

GST family genes have a critical role in xenobiotic metabolism and drug resistance. Among the GST family the GST-μ, GST-π, GST-α and GST-θ are the most abundant classes and have a major role in the carcinogen detoxification process. Nevertheless...

Association of glutathione S-transferase (GSTM1 and GSTT1) genes with chronic myeloid leukemia.

SpringerPlus

Kassogue Y, Dehbi H, Quachouh M, Quessar A, Benchekroun S, Nadifi S.
PMID: 25969820
Springerplus. 2015 May 01;4:210. doi: 10.1186/s40064-015-0966-y. eCollection 2015.

Chronic myeloid leukemia (CML), as most of cancers results from a complex interaction between genetic or non genetic factors. Exposures to xenobiotics endogenous or exogenous associated with a reduced individual ability in detoxifying activity, constitutes a risk of developing...

The effects of oxidative stress in in vitro cultured astroglial cells.

Alternatives to laboratory animals : ATLA

Frederiksen CM, Clausen J.
PMID: 25470673
Altern Lab Anim. 1999 May-Jun;27(3):351-7. doi: 10.1177/026119299902700307.

It has been suggested that glial cells in the central nervous system might function as a buffer and protect neurons and synapses. Associated with such a function, glial cells might be affected in degenerative diseases, for example, Alzheimer's disease...

Glutathione S-transferase Omega 2 Genetic Polymorphism and Risk of Hepatic Failure that Lead to Liver Transplantation in Iranian Population.

International journal of organ transplantation medicine

Khosravi M, Saadat I, Karimi MH, Geramizadeh B, Saadat M.
PMID: 25013648
Int J Organ Transplant Med. 2013;4(1):16-20.

BACKGROUND: Liver transplantation is the treatment of choice for both acute and chronic hepatic failure. GSTs family is one of the most important genes in phase II detoxification interfering with the xenobiotics and free radical metabolism. GSTO2 (N142D) is...

Kynurenine aminotransferase 3/glutamine transaminase L/cysteine conjugate beta-lyase 2 is a major glutamine transaminase in the mouse kidney.

Biochemistry and biophysics reports
