Using a mouse model of genetic Sod2 deficiency, we show that failure to express this important mitochondrial anti-oxidant enzyme also impairs mitochondrial complex II activity, causes nuclear DNA damage, and induces cellular senescence but not apoptosis in the epidermis.
Pres. to express himself.
The aim of this study was to demonstrate whether iron deficiency, expressed through elevations of sTfR, constitutes an important etiologic component of ICU patients' anemia.
The respiratory chain, though impaired, remains partially functional in FRDA target tissues and in animal models with reduced frataxin levels, as well as in cell models with partial frataxin deficiency or expressing a mutated frataxin protein [59], [60].
In Patient 37, the respiratory chain deficiency was expressed in both liver and muscle, the latter tissue not being clinically affected, indicating that tissue-specific differences may occur.
Amelioration of fibrosis and DCM caused by SRF deficiency through expressing mIGF1 propeptide represents a promising therapeutic avenue for treating cardiac failure in humans.
During thiamine deficiency, PDC5 is expressed strongly but the expression of PDC1 is likely to be suppressed by the interaction of Pdc2p with Thi2-Thi3p.
A relative deficiency of constitutively expressed endothelial nitric oxide (NO), essential to maintain a quiescent and functional endothelium, may underlie sepsis-associated endothelial and microvascular dysfunction [6], [7].
