Disposable electrochemical flow cells for catalytic adsorptive stripping voltammetry (CAdSV) at a bismuth film electrode (BiFE).

Anal. Bioanal. Chem 391(4) , 1283-92, (2008)

Catalytic adsorptive stripping voltammetry (CAdSV) has been demonstrated at a bismuth film electrode (BiFE) in an injection-moulded electrochemical micro-flow cell. The polystyrene three-electrode flow cell was fabricated with electrodes moulded from a conduc...

Impact of cadmium, cobalt and nickel on sequence-specific DNA binding of p63 and p73 in vitro and in cells.

Biochem. Biophys. Res. Commun. 456(1) , 29-34, (2015)

Site-specific DNA recognition and binding activity belong to common attributes of all three members of tumor suppressor p53 family proteins: p53, p63 and p73. It was previously shown that heavy metals can affect p53 conformation, sequence-specific binding and...

In vitro antitumor activity of parent and nano-encapsulated mono cobalt-substituted Keggin polyoxotungstate and its ctDNA binding properties.

Chem. Biol. Interact. 215 , 25-32, (2014)

The parent and nanosized starch, and lipid encapsulated K6[SiW11O39Co(H2O)]·nH2O (abbreviated as SEP, LEP and SiW11Co, respectively), as potent antitumor candidates, were synthesized and characterized by FT-IR spectroscopy, ICP, TG analysis, SEM and TEM image...

A simple method to engineer a protein-derived redox cofactor for catalysis.

Biochim. Biophys. Acta 1837(10) , 1595-601, (2014)

The 6×-Histidine tag which is commonly used for purification of recombinant proteins was converted to a catalytic redox-active center by incorporation of Co(2+). Two examples of the biological activity of this engineered protein-derived cofactor are presented...

[Influence of transition metal compounds on superoxide dismutase activity of sulfur reducing Desulfuromonas acetoxidans bacteria].

Mikrobiol. Z. 75(2) , 37-44, (2013)

Superoxide dismutase, as one of the enzymes of cells' antioxidant defensive system, catalyzes superoxide anion-radical (O2-) dismutation with O2 and H2O2 forming. The influence of such transition metal compounds, as FeSO4, FeCl3, MnCl2, NiCl2, and CoCl2 on su...

Diagnostic use of cerebral and extracerebral oxysterols.

Clin. Chem. Lab Med. 42(2) , 186-91, (2004)

24S-Hydroxycholesterol (24OHC) and 27-hydroxycholesterol (27OHC) are two structurally similar oxysterols of different origins--the former almost exclusively formed in the brain and the latter formed to a lesser extent in the brain than in most other organs. H...

Levels of 7-oxocholesterol in cerebrospinal fluid are more than one thousand times lower than reported in multiple sclerosis.

J. Lipid Res. 46(2) , 191-5, (2005)

In a recent publication [Diestel, A., O. Aktas, D. Hackel, I. Hake, S. Meier, C. S. Raine, R. Nitsch, F. Zipp, and O. Ullrich. 2003. Activation of microglial poly (ADP-ribose)-polymerase-1 by cholesterol breakdown products during neuroinflammation: a link bet...

Disruption of thiol homeostasis and nitrosative stress in the cerebrospinal fluid of patients with active multiple sclerosis: evidence for a protective role of acetylcarnitine.

Neurochem. Res. 28(9) , 1321-8, (2003)

Recent studies suggest that NO and its reactive derivative peroxynitrite are implicated in the pathogenesis of multiple sclerosis (MS). Patients dying with MS demonstrate increased astrocytic inducible nitric oxide synthase activity, as well as increased leve...

Folate and methylation status in relation to phosphorylated tau protein(181P) and beta-amyloid(1-42) in cerebrospinal fluid.

Clin. Chem. 53(6) , 1129-36, (2007)

Increased plasma total homocysteine (tHcy) is a risk factor for neurological diseases, but the underlying pathophysiology has not been adequately explained.We evaluated concentrations of tHcy, S-adenosyl homocysteine (SAH), S-adenosyl methionine (SAM), folate...

Serum uric acid levels in multiple sclerosis patients correlate with activity of disease and blood-brain barrier dysfunction.

Eur. J. Neurol. 9(3) , 221-6, (2002)

Several findings suggest lower levels of serum uric acid in multiple sclerosis (MS) patients. The aim of this study is to investigate relationships of uric acid serum levels in relapse-remitting (RR) MS patients with clinical activity of disease and blood-bra...
