Binding of oleate to S-nitrosylated human serum albumin (SNO-HSA) enhances its cytoprotective effect on liver cells in a rat ischemia/reperfusion model. It enhances the antiapoptotic effect of SNO-HSA on HepG2 cells exposed to anti-Fas antibody. To identify some of the reasons for the increased cytoprotective effects, additional experiments were performed with glutathione and HepG2 cells. As in...

Myoglobin (Mb) serves in the facilitated diffusion and storage of O₂ in heart and skeletal muscle, where it also regulates O₂ consumption via nitric oxide (NO) scavenging or generation. S-nitrosation at reactive cysteines may generate S-nitroso Mb (Mb-SNO) and contribute further to NO homeostasis. In being a monomer, Mb is commonly believed to lack allosteric control of heme reactivity. Here, w...

Abstract Optoelectronic synapse units have been drawing a strong interest lately due to their obvious crucial role in the evolution of optoelectronic integration-based neuromorphic computing. Here, synaptic devices are fabricated based on stannic oxide (SnO 2 ) film and with structure ITO/SnO /P ++ -Si. Using optical stimulation, we found that sandwich highly responsive exhibit fast switching b...

the electronic structure, energy band structure and electronic density of 2 sno ceramic in cubicphase have been investigated using first principle full potential-linearized augmented plane wave (fp-lapw)method within density functional theory (dft). local density approximation (lda) and the generalizedgradient approximation (gga), which are based on exchange- correlation energy optimization wer...

a The Sudbury Neutrino Observatory (SNO) has unique capabilities as a supernova detector. In the event of a galactic supernova there are opportunities, with the data that SNO would collect, to constrain certain intrinsic neutrino properties significantly, to test details of the various models of supernova dynamics, and to provide prompt notification to the astronomical community through the Sup...

Sn–O nanoparticles were prepared by levitation-jet aerosol synthesis and found to exhibit ferromagnetic behavior. X-ray powder diffraction analysis 119Sn Mössbauer spectroscopy confirmed these consist of β-Sn, SnO SnO2 phases. The maximum specific magnetization was observed for containing the SnO/SnO2 interface.

In 1991 to 1992, we reported that both endogenous and exogenous nitric oxide (NO) react with thiols in proteins such as albumin to form long-lived S-nitrosothiols (SNOs) with vasodilatory activity.1 We also described the presence of a circulating pool of S-nitrosoalbumin in plasma whose levels were coupled to NO synthase (NOS) activity. Inhibition of NOS led to a decline in SNO-albumin with con...

The Sudbury Neutrino Observatory (SNO) measures both the flux of the electron-type neutrinos and the total flux of all active flavours of neutrinos originating from the Sun. A model-independent test of neutrino flavour transformation was performed by comparing these two measurements. In 2002, this flavour transformation was definitively demonstrated. In this talk, results from these measurement...
