The regulation of stable catalase from Aspergillus niger was investigated. The preincubation of catalase with peroxynitrite (PN) resulted in a significant decrease in the production of O2, while the subsequent incubation with reduced glutathione (GSH, 1mM) led to restoration of the enzymatic activity. Western blot analysis revealed not only the increased immunoreactivities of 3-nitrotyrosine and S-nitrosocysteine in a PN-dose-dependent manner, but also conversely decreased immunoreactivity of 3-nitrotyrosine by the subsequent preincubation of catalase with GSH (1mM)/glutathione S-transferase (GST). The inhibition of the catalase after PN-treatment may be due to conformational changes of the enzyme via tyrosine-nitration/cysteine-nitrosation and the binding of active nitrogen/oxygen species to the Fe3+-protoporphyrin groups of the enzyme. The reverse of these processes to restore enzymatic activity by GSH/GST may be a vital antioxidative mechanism.

Background: Recent studies have shown that ferroptosis, a newly identified regulated cell death characterized by increased lipid peroxidation and accumulation of toxic lipid peroxides, is closely related to the pathophysiological processes of nervous system diseases which can be inhibited with iron chelators, lipophilic antioxidants, and lipid peroxidation inhibitors.
Objective: To review the current evidence on the efficacy of various natural polyphenols in nervous system injury.
Methods: The data selected for this review were collected by searching the MEDLINE/PubMed, Web of Science, Scopus, and Google Scholar database for articles published in English between 2000 and 2024 using the following terms: cell death, regulated cell death, ferroptosis, lipid peroxides, iron, and glutathione peroxidase.

Background: Phaseolus vulgaris is a warm-season crop sensitive to low temperatures, which can adversely affect its growth, yield, and market value. Exogenous growth regulators, such as diethyl aminoethyl hexanoate (DA-6), have shown potential in alleviating stress caused by adverse environmental conditions. However, the effects that DA-6 has on P.

Oxidative stress plays a critical role in postmenopausal osteoporosis, yet its impact on osteoblasts remains underexplored, limiting therapeutic advances. Our study identifies phospholipid peroxidation in osteoblasts as a key feature of postmenopausal osteoporosis. Estrogen regulates the transcription of glutathione peroxidase 4 (GPX4), an enzyme crucial for reducing phospholipid peroxides in osteoblasts.
