Vitamin C (vitC) deficiency is associated with increased cardiovascular disease risk, but its specific interplay with arteriolar function is unclear. This study investigates the effect of vitC deficiency in guinea pigs on plasma biopterin status and the vasomotor responses in

DNase I-seq is a global and high-resolution method that uses the nonspecific endonuclease DNase I to map chromatin accessibility. These accessible regions, designated as DNase I hypersensitive sites (DHSs), define the regulatory features, (e.g., promoters, enhancers, insulators, and locus control
A strategy for the rational design of a novel colorimetric sensor based on dithioerythritol-modified gold nanoparticles for the selective recognition of Hg2+ in aqueous media is presented. This approach relies on the combination of gold nanoparticles with Hg2+ through sulfur-Hg2+-sulfur
H(2)O(2) inhibits the [(3)H]carnitine/carnitine antiport catalysed by the mitochondrial carnitine/acylcarnitine transporter reconstituted in proteoliposomes. The inhibition was reversed by dithioerythritol, N-acetylcysteine and L-cysteine. Inhibition time-dependence revealed a faster and a slower reaction stages with orders of reaction of 1.0 and
The aqueous solutions of arsenous acid with the meso and racemic forms of 1,4-dithiol-butane-2,3-diol, namely, dithioerythritol (dte) and dithiothreitol (dtt), respectively, were titrated pH-metrically in different molar ratios. The p K a values determined for As(OH) 3, and dtt were
