Cytochrome P450 oxidoreductase contributes to phospholipid peroxidation in ferroptosis.

TL;DR: Cytochrome P450 oxidoreductase is identified as a contributor to ferroptotic cell death by promoting phospholipid peroxidation in various cellular lineages and is suggested as a potential druggable target for developing antiferroptosis therapeutics.
Journal ArticleDOI

Functions of ROS in Macrophages and Antimicrobial Immunity

TL;DR: A brief introduction to ROS and their sources in macrophages is given, the versatile roles of ROS in direct and indirect antimicrobial immune defense are summarized, and an overview of commonly used ROS probes, scavengers and inhibitors are provided.
Journal ArticleDOI

Molecular Mechanisms That Link Oxidative Stress, Inflammation, and Fibrosis in the Liver.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors link the activation of the NF-κB and NLRP3 signaling pathways via reactive oxygen species (ROS) and thioredoxin-interacting protein, respectively, linking the molecular mechanisms of oxidative stress, inflammation and fibrosis.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Ah Receptor: Adaptive Metabolism, Ligand Diversity, and the Xenokine Model.

TL;DR: The historical underpinnings of the current state of knowledge about AHR signal transduction are provided, a few areas of needed research are identified, and concepts such as adaptive metabolism, ligand structural diversity, and the importance of proligands in receptor activation are developed.
Journal ArticleDOI

The relationships between cytochromes P450 and H 2 O 2: Production, reaction, and inhibition

TL;DR: H2O2-dependent inhibition of human P450s has been studied in the laboratory, demonstrating heme destruction and also the inactivating oxidation of the heme-thiolate ligand to a sulfenic acid (-SOH).

The Carbon Monoxide-binding Pigment of Liver Microsomes I. EVIDENCE FOR ITS HEMOPROTEIN NATURE

TL;DR: The present paper gives a detailed account of the investigations on rabbit liver microsomes and crude microsomal digests, which have led to postulate the hemoprotein nature of the pigment.
Journal ArticleDOI

Instability and decay of the primary structure of DNA

TL;DR: The spontaneous decay of DNA is likely to be a major factor in mutagenesis, carcinogenesis and ageing, and also sets limits for the recovery of DNA fragments from fossils.
Journal ArticleDOI

ROS Function in Redox Signaling and Oxidative Stress

TL;DR: It is argued that redox biology, rather than oxidative stress, underlies physiological and pathological conditions.

ROS as signalling molecules: mechanisms that generate specificity in ROS homeostasis

TL;DR: The pathways that regulate ROS homeostasis are crucial for mitigating the toxicity of ROS and provide strong evidence about specificity in ROS signalling.
