To investigate the effect of age on the key oxidation repair enzymes of the thioltransferase (TTase) and thioredoxin (TRx) systems in the human lens. Twenty-three normal human lenses (donor ages, 19-77 years) were grouped into second, third, fifth, sixth, and

The GPD2 gene, encoding NAD(+)-dependent glycerol-3-phosphate dehydrogenase in an industrial ethanol-producing strain of Saccharomyces cerevisiae, was deleted. And then, either the non-phosphorylating NADP(+)-dependent glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPN) from Bacillus cereus, or the NADP(+)-dependent glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPDH) from Kluyveromyces lactis, was expressed

To compare the organization of human and rat ocular medial recti muscles (MR). The cryosections of human and rat MR were processed for myofibrillar ATPase (mATPase), succinate dehydrogenase and glycerol-3-phosphate dehydrogenase. To reveal myosin heavy chain (MyHC) isoforms, specific monoclonal
Exposure to maternal overnutrition increases the expression of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-gamma (PPARgamma) in adipose tissue before birth, and it has been proposed that the precocial activation of PPARgamma target genes may lead to increased fat deposition in postnatal life. In
Metabolism: clinical and experimental, 59(7), 1000-1011 (2010-01-05)
Methionine restriction increases life span in rats and mice and reduces age-related accretion of adipose tissue in Fischer 344 rats. Recent reports have shown that adipose tissue mitochondrial content and function are associated with adiposity; therefore, the expression of genes
