Cadmium affects glutathione-related metabolism in Vicia faba roots
Cadmium (Cd) is one of the most toxic heavy metals in plants. To investigate whether Cd induces common plant defense pathways, different physiological and molecular reactions, including modifications in glutathione (GSH) level, activity and gene expression of glutathione reductase (GR) enzyme were characterized in roots of hydroponically cultivated-Vicia seedlings during 12, 24 and 48 h. Vicia ...
متن کاملTargeted Deletion of Los1 Homologue Affects the Production of a Recombinant Model Protein in Pichia pastoris
Background: The methylotrophic yeast Pichia pastoris is an appealing production host for a variety of recombinant, including biologics. In this sense, various genetic- and non-genetic-based techniques have been implemented to improve the production efficiency of this expression platform. Los1 (loss of supression) encodes a non-essential nuclear tRNA exporter in Saccharomyces cerevisiae, which i...
متن کاملClinical significance and therapeutic value of glutathione peroxidase 3 (GPx3) in hepatocellular carcinoma
AIMS We aimed to investigate the clinical significance of GPx3 in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and to characterize its tumor suppressive role. METHODS HCC patients (113) who underwent hepatectomy were recruited to examine the clinical relevance of GPx3. The tumor suppressive role of GPx3 was studied by administration of recombinant GPx3 (rGPx3) or over-expression of GPx3 in HCC cells in vit...
متن کاملTumor suppressor function of the plasma glutathione peroxidase gpx3 in colitis-associated carcinoma.
The glutathione peroxidases, a family of selenocysteine-containing redox enzymes, play pivotal roles in balancing the signaling, immunomodulatory, and deleterious effects of reactive oxygen species (ROS). The glutathione peroxidase GPX3 is the only extracellular member of this family, suggesting it may defend cells against ROS in the extracellular environment. Notably, GPX3 hypermethylation and...
متن کاملExtracellular glutathione peroxidase (Gpx3) binds specifically to basement membranes of mouse renal cortex tubule cells.
Glutathione peroxidase-3 (Gpx3), also known as plasma or extracellular glutathione peroxidase, is a selenoprotein secreted primarily by kidney proximal convoluted tubule cells. In this study Gpx3(-/-) mice have been produced and immunocytochemical techniques have been developed to investigate Gpx3 metabolism. Gpx3(-/-) mice maintained the same whole-body content and urinary excretion of seleniu...
