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 کاملCardiovascular Inflammation 2012: Reactive Oxygen Species, SUMOylation, and Biomarkers in Cardiovascular Inflammation
Cardiovascular diseases are growing burden in westernized countries. Cardiovascular diseases, including atherosclerosis, associate with chronic inflammation. The goal of this special issue is to highlight the inflammatory nature of cardiovas-cular diseases and their association with the production of cytokines, reactive oxygen species (ROS), and SUMOylation in atherosclerotic plaques. In additi...
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 کاملEndothelial Progenitor Cell Dysfunction in Cardiovascular Diseases: Role of Reactive Oxygen Species and Inflammation
Endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs) move towards injured endothelium or inflamed tissues and incorporate into foci of neovascularisation, thereby improving blood flow and tissue repair. Patients with cardiovascular diseases have been shown to exhibit reduced EPC number and function. It has become increasingly apparent that these changes may be effected in response to enhanced oxidative stress, ...
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...
