Overexpression of Protochlorophyllide Oxidoreductase C Regulates Oxidative Stress in Arabidopsis
Light absorbed by colored intermediates of chlorophyll biosynthesis is not utilized in photosynthesis; instead, it is transferred to molecular oxygen, generating singlet oxygen ((1)O(2)). As there is no enzymatic detoxification mechanism available in plants to destroy (1)O(2), its generation should be minimized. We manipulated the concentration of a major chlorophyll biosynthetic intermediate i...
متن کاملACE2 deficiency increases NADPH‐mediated oxidative stress in the kidney
Abstract Angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) is highly expressed in the kidney and hydrolyzes angiotensin II (Ang II) to Ang(1-7). Since Ang II is a strong activator of oxidative stress, we reasoned that ACE2 could be involved in the regulation of renal oxidative stress by governing the levels of Ang II. We, therefore, assessed levels of oxidative stress in kidney cortex of ACE2 knockout and...
متن کاملOxidative stress and gene expression in sepsis.
Dysregulation of the immuno-inflammatory response, as seen in sepsis, may culminate in host cell and organ damage. Lipopolysaccharide from Gram-negative bacterial cell walls induces gene activation and subsequent inflammatory mediator expression. Gene activation is regulated by a number of transcription factors at the nuclear level, of which nuclear factor kappaB appears to have a central role....
متن کاملPGC-1α regulates translocated in liposarcoma activity: role in oxidative stress gene expression.
UNLABELLED Translocated in liposarcoma (TLS) is a poorly characterized multifunctional protein involved in the genotoxic response. TLS regulates gene expression at several steps, including splicing and mRNA transport, possibly connecting transcriptional and posttranscriptional events. AIMS In this study we aimed to idenfity molecular targets and regulatory partners of TLS. RESULTS AND INNOV...
متن کاملRepression of gene expression by oxidative stress.
Gene expression is modulated by both physiological signals (hormones, cytokines, etc.) and environmental stimuli (physical parameters, xenobiotics, etc.). Oxidative stress appears to be a key pleiotropic modulator which may be involved in either pathway. Indeed, reactive oxygen species (ROS) have been described as second messengers for several growth factors and cytokines, but have also been sh...
