Oxidation of proximal protein sulfhydryls by phenanthraquinone, a component of diesel exhaust particles.
Diesel exhaust particles (DEP) contain quinones that are capable of catalyzing the generation of reactive oxygen species in biological systems, resulting in induction of oxidative stress. In the… Expand

Muscle-enriched microRNA miR-486 decreases in circulation in response to exercise in young men
Background: MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small non-coding RNAs involved in post-transcriptional gene regulation. miRNAs are taken in by intracellular exosomes, secreted into circulation, and taken up by… Expand

Oxidative stress and delayed-onset muscle damage after exercise.
Reactive oxygen species (ROS) produced during exercise may be involved in delayed-onset muscle damage related to inflammation. To investigate this hypothesis, we studied whether oxidative stress… Expand

Analysis of hepatic genes involved in the metabolism of fatty acids and iron in nonalcoholic fatty liver disease
Aims:  Hepatic steatosis and iron cause oxidative stress, thereby progressing steatosis to steatohepatitis. We quantified the expression of genes involved in the metabolism of fatty acids and iron in… Expand

SOX2 identified as a target gene for the amplification at 3q26 that is frequently detected in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma.
SOX2 is a transcription factor with a high-mobility group DNA-binding domain that functions as a master regulator during embryogenesis and organogenesis. We investigated DNA copy number aberrations… Expand
