Metal-Induced Oxidative Stress and Cellular Signaling Alteration in Animals
Contamination by heavy metals has attracted increasing attention considering the ability of these elements in producing serious consequence to ecosystem, and especially on animals health. Due to their widespread use in human activities such as industry, agriculture and even as medicine (e.g. arsenic, selenium and platinum), numerous health risks may be associated with exposure to these substanc...
متن کاملLipid Droplets as Signaling Platforms Linking Metabolic and Cellular Functions
The main cells of the adipose tissue of animals, adipocytes, are characterized by the presence of large cytosolic lipid droplets (LDs), which store triglyceride (TG) and cholesterol. However, most cells have LDs and the ability to store lipids. LDs have a well-known central role in storage and provision of fatty acids and cholesterol. However, the complexity of the regulation of lipid metabolis...
متن کاملRos Signaling in Plants
The evolution of aerobic metabolism such as respiration and photosynthesis resulted in the generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS). A common property of all ROS types is that they can cause oxidative damage to proteins, DNA, and lipids. This toxicity of ROS explains the evolution of complex arrays of nonenzymatic and enzymatic detoxification mechanisms in plants. However, increasing evidenc...
متن کاملPeptide signaling in plants.
I plants, only a few peptides have been identified that act as signaling molecules (1). In contrast, signaling peptides are major players in all aspects of the life cycle in animals and yeast (2), suggesting that signaling mechanisms across the eukaryotic kingdom are fundamentally different. In animals and yeast, signaling peptides are synthesized, in general, as part of longer biologically ina...
متن کاملGibberellin signaling in plants.
The plant hormone gibberellin (GA) regulates major aspects of plant growth and development. The role of GA in determining plant stature had major impacts on agriculture in the 1960s, and the development of semi-dwarf varieties that show altered GA responses contributed to a huge increase in grain yields during the 'green revolution'. The past decade has brought great progress in understanding t...
