Molecular mechanisms of homocysteine toxicity and possible protection against hyperhomocysteinemia
Homocysteine is a naturally occurring intermediate connecting metabolism of methionine and cysteine and, subsequently glutathione. Its normal level in mammalian blood does not exceed 10 μmol/l, whereas vitamin deficient diet, increased stationary levels of reactive oxygen species, as well as neurodegenerative and cardiovascular diseases are usually accompanied by an increased content of homocys...
متن کاملGenetic Requirements for Protection Against Bleomycin Toxicity
Bleomycin is known to cause double strand breaks in vitro. Little is known, however, about its mechanism of genotoxicity in vivo. One way to probe the mechanism of genotoxicity of a DNA damaging agent in vivo is to compare the relative sensitivities of a wild type Escherichia coli strain to a panel of isogenic repair deficient mutants. If the pathway defective in the mutant is known (e.g., base...
متن کاملProtection against Radiotherapy-Induced Toxicity
Radiation therapy is a highly utilized therapy in the treatment of malignancies with up to 60% of cancer patients receiving radiation therapy as a part of their treatment regimen. Radiation therapy does, however, cause a wide range of adverse effects that can be severe and cause permanent damage to the patient. In an attempt to minimize these effects, a small number of compounds have been ident...
متن کاملProtection Mechanisms Against Phishing Attacks
Approaches against Phishing can be classified into modifications of the traditional PIN/TAN-authentication on the one hand and approaches that try to reduce the probability of a scammer being successful without changing the existing PIN/TAN-method on the other hand. We present a new approach, based on challenge-response-authentication. Since our proposal does not require any new hardware on the...
