Health economics of osteoporosis
(2006-05-02)
Health economics is concerned about how the scarce resources should most efficiently be allocated to maximise the health outcomes. Health economic evaluation is a method for assessing costs and benefits of alternative ...
Novel methods for the identification of cellular S-glutathionylated proteins and sites of glutathionedependent modification using affinity chromatography and proteomic analyses
(2005-02-21)
Reactive oxygen species (ROS) are formed during normal respiration in the mitochondria through electron leakage to oxygen. During normal metabolism, several enzymes and low-molecular weight antioxidants work towards ...
Regulation of human thioredoxin and glutaredoxin systems by oxidation and S-nitrosylation
(2008-03-21)
The homeostasis of intracellular redox status has a crucial role in the
cell survival and different processes such as DNA synthesis, gene
expression, enzymatic activity, etc. This homeostasis is achieved via an
intense ...
Identification and functional characterization of novel thioredoxin systems
(2003-10-03)
Thioredoxins (Trx) are a class of small multifunctional 12-kDa proteins that are characterized by the redox active site Trp-Cys-Gly-Pro-Cys (WCGPC). In the oxidized (inactive) form of Trx (Trx-S2), the two cysteines at the ...
