Reactive Oxygen Species, SUMOylation, and Endothelial Inflammation
Although the exact mechanism through which NADPH oxidases (Nox's) generate reactive oxygen species (ROS) is still not completely understood, it is widely considered that ROS accumulation is the cause of oxidative stress in endothelial cells. Increasing pieces of evidence strongly indicate the role for ROS in endothelial inflammation and dysfunction and subsequent development of atherosclerotic ...
متن کاملO 22: Reactive Oxygen Species and Epilepsy
Seizure activity has been proposed to result in the generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS), which then contribute to seizure-induced neuronal damage and eventually cell death. Although the mechanisms of seizure-induced ROS generation are unclear, mitochondria and cellular calcium overload have been proposed to have a crucial role. We aim to determine the sources of seizure-induced ROS and ...
متن کاملReactive oxygen species at the crossroads of inflammasome and inflammation
Inflammasomes form a crucial part of the innate immune system. These are multi-protein oligomer platforms that are composed of intracellular sensors which are coupled with caspase and interleukin activating systems. Nod-like receptor protein (NLRP) 3, and 6 and NLRC4 and AIM2 are the prominent members of the inflammasome family. Inflammasome activation leads to pyroptosis, a process of programm...
متن کاملReactive oxygen species, inflammation and calcium oxalate nephrolithiasis
Calcium oxalate (CaOx) kidney stones are formed attached to Randall's plaques (RPs) or Randall's plugs. Mechanisms involved in the formation and growth are poorly understood. It is our hypothesis that stone formation is a form of pathological biomineralization or ectopic calcification. Pathological calcification and plaque formation in the body is triggered by reactive oxygen species (ROS) and ...
متن کاملReactive Oxygen Species: A link between chronic inflammation and cancer
* Author for correspondence: : Dr. (Mrs) Khushtar A Salman, Department of Biochemistry, J.N Medical College, AMU, Aligarh 202002 (U.P), India. Email: [email protected]. Abstract. Chronic inflammation is associated with an increase reactive oxygen and nitrogen species, giving rise to epigenetic changes, genomic instability and DNA mutations, which thereby contribute to tumour initiation and pr...
