Does reproduction protect against oxidative stress?
A central principle of life-history theory is that parents trade investment in reproduction against that in body maintenance. One physiological cost thought to be important as a modulator of such trade-off is oxidative stress. Experimental support for this hypothesis has, however, proved to be contradictory. In this study, we manipulated the nestling rearing effort of captive canaries (Serinus ...
متن کاملExamining coding structure and redundancy in DNA. How does DNA protect itself from life's uncertainty?
0739-5175/06/$20.00©2006IEEE T he genetic code instructs proteins on the translation of nucleotides to amino acids, but this example is only one of many signals encoded in DNA. It is well known that these protein-coding regions have the lowest mutation rates in the DNA strand. So, the question arises: how does DNA protect itself from error? A review of DNA signal content, redundancy, and mutati...
متن کاملPhishing: How an Organization can Protect Itself
The objective of this paper is to report on research to construct a model, which should provide guidance to an organization on how to address all dimensions associated with phishing and assist in solving the problem holistically. The emphasis will be placed on the human and organizational dimensions. Most research in this area has shown that only certain dimensions used to combat phishing attac...
متن کاملTyrphostins protect neuronal cells from oxidative stress.
Tyrphostins are a family of tyrosine kinase inhibitors originally synthesized as potential anticarcinogenic compounds. Because tyrphostins have chemical structures similar to those of the phenolic antioxidants, we decided to test the protective efficacy of tyrphostins against oxidative stress-induced nerve cell death (oxytosis). Many commercially available tyrphostins, at concentrations ranging...
متن کاملBiomimetic peptides protect cells from oxidative stress.
Most degenerative diseases are caused by free radicals. Antioxidin-RL peptide is a free radical scavenger found in the skin of plateau frog Odorrana livida, which is more stable than vitamin C as it resists light-induced degradation. However, whether and how antioxidin-RL protects cells from oxidative stress was not clear. Here we addressed this issue, and in addition, we designed a series of a...
