Protective effect of safranine on the mitochondrial damage induced by Fe(II)citrate: Comparative study with trifluoperazine
(1996-08-07)
In this study, we show that safranine at the concentrations usually employed as a probe of mitochondrial membrane potential significantly protects against the oxidative damage of mitochondria induced by Fe(II)citrate. The ...

Expression of 8-oxoguanine Glycosylase in Human Fetal Membranes
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2014-07-01)
Problem The most common DNA lesion generated by oxidative stress (OS) is 7, 8-dihydro-8-oxoguanine (8-oxoG) whose excision repair is performed by 8-oxoguanine glycosylase (OGG1). We investigated OGG1 expression changes in ...
Permeabilization of E-coli K12 inner and outer membranes by bothropstoxin-I, A LYS49 phospholipase A2 from Bothrops jararacussu
(PERGAMON-ELSEVIER SCIENCE LTD, 2008)
Although lacking catalytic activity, the Lys49-PLA(2)s damage artificial membranes by a Ca2+-independent mechanism, and demonstrate a potent bactericidal effect. The relationship between the membrane-damaging activity and ...
Calcium-Independent Membrane Damage by Venom Phospholipases A(2)
(Bentham Science Publ Ltd, 2009-08-01)
Many snake venom phospholipase A(2)s (vPLA(2)s) present biological effects that are independent of hydrolytic activity. Here we review the evidence for the calcium-independent membrane damaging activity of vPLA(2)s, the ...

Critical Water Activity for the Preservation of Lactobacillus bulgaricus by Vacuum Drying
(Elsevier Science, 2008-12)
Lactobacillus delbrueckkii subsp. bulgaricus was dried under vacuum at different temperatures and its preservation evaluated following three parameters: lag time, percentage of membrane damage and z potential). Microorganisms ...
