Indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase (IDO1) and tryptophan 2,3-dioxygenase (TDO) are two structurally different enzymes that have a different tissue distribution and physiological roles, but both catalyze the conversion of tryptophan to N-formylkynurenine (NFK). IDO1 ...

Lipid peroxidation is a well-known process that has been implicated in many diseases. Recent evidence has shown that mitochondrial cholesterol levels are increased under specific conditions, making it an important target for peroxidation inside the mitochondr...

Elevated levels of reactive oxygen species (ROS) can be induced by exposure to various chemicals and radiation. One type of damage in DNA produced by ROS is modification of guanine to 7,8-dihydro-8-oxoguanine (8-oxoG). This particular alteration to the chemis...

Here we studied the autoantibody specificity elicited by proteolipid protein (PLP) in MP4-induced experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis, a mouse model of multiple sclerosis (MS). In C57BL/6 (B6) mice, antibodies were induced by immunization with one of th...

The origin of selectivity in the hollowing of silica nanoparticles is investigated to further understand silica. It is realized that, during the synthesis, the silica precursors are essentially ion-paired polyelectrolytes, whose nucleation depends on the conc...
