Reactive oxygen species, antioxidant systems and nitric oxide in peroxisomes.
Peroxisomes are subcellular organelles with an essentially oxidative type of metabolism. Like chloroplasts and mitochondria, plant peroxisomes also produce superoxide radicals (O2*(-)) and there are, at least, two sites of superoxide generation: one in the organelle matrix, the generating system being xanthine oxidase, and another site in the peroxisomal membranes dependent on NAD(P)H. In perox...
متن کاملReactive Oxygen Species (Ros-Induced) Ros Release
We sought to understand the relationship between reactive oxygen species (ROS) and the mitochondrial permeability transition (MPT) in cardiac myocytes based on the observation of increased ROS production at sites of spontaneously deenergized mitochondria. We devised a new model enabling incremental ROS accumulation in individual mitochondria in isolated cardiac myocytes via photoactivation of t...
متن کاملMitochondrial reactive oxygen species (ROS) and ROS-induced ROS release.
Byproducts of normal mitochondrial metabolism and homeostasis include the buildup of potentially damaging levels of reactive oxygen species (ROS), Ca(2+), etc., which must be normalized. Evidence suggests that brief mitochondrial permeability transition pore (mPTP) openings play an important physiological role maintaining healthy mitochondria homeostasis. Adaptive and maladaptive responses to r...
متن کاملReactive Oxygen Species (ROS) and Male Fertility
Oxidative energy production is inevitably associated with the generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS), excessive concentrations of which can lead to cellular pathol‐ ogy. A free radical may be defined as any molecule that has one or more unpaired electrons. The superoxide anion, the hydroxyl radical, and the hypochlorite radical are some of the highest reactive radicals of oxygen. Owing to ...
متن کاملReactive Oxygen Species (Ros) Generation in Sepsis
Sepsis and septic shock remain as leading cause of death in adult intensive care units. It is widely accepted that sepsis and septic shock are caused predominantly by gram-negative bacteria and their endotoxins. Endotoxin or Lipopolysaccharide (LPS) have important roles as host responses and trigger the inflammatory processes, caused by gram-negative bacterial infection. Production of oxygen ra...
