A NOVEL PRO-OXIDANT ROLE OF GELSOLIN IN CANCER CELL INVASION
… in heightened ROS levels, particularly the superoxides (O2-) as well as increased invasion; whereas silencing of gelsolin reduces O2- levels and invasion. Inhbition of O2- produciton using diphenyleneiodonium significanlty attenuates invasion in gelsolin-overexpresing HCT116 cells. …

Critical role of ROS in capsaicin-induced hyperalgesia
… due to increased production of mitochondrial superoxides in dorsal horn neurons. \r\nThis study also investigated the role of mitochondrial antioxidant SOD2 in pain. Experiments were done to measure spinal levels of SOD2 protein and activity, inactivated SOD2 protein, and ROS accumulating …

Role of Angiotensin II Type 2 Receptors in Oxidative Stress and Inflammation
… lean rats. Overall the studies demonstrate that superoxides can obstruct AT2 receptor function during physiological condition. However chronic activation of AT2 receptor can have anti-inflammatory and anti-oxidative function in obese Zucker rats but pro-inflammatory and pro-oxidative function in …

Superoxide via Sp3 Transcription Factor Up-Regulates Renal AT1 Receptor Function and Contributes to Hypertension
Hypertension is the most prevalent disease condition in the US affecting every 1 in 3 American adults. Renin angiotensin system (RAS) predominately regulates blood pressure and fluid homeostasis in the body. Angiotensin II type 1 (AT1) receptor is the key component of RAS that is implicated in …
