Superoxide is the proximal reactive oxygen species (ROS) produced by mitochondrial respiratory chain and plays a major role in pathological oxidative stress redox signaling. While there are tools to detect or decrease superoxide, none can rapidly specifically increase superoxide production within matrix. This lack impedes progress, making it challenging assess accurately roles of cells vivo. To address this unmet need, we synthesized characterized mitochondria-targeted cycler, MitoParaquat...
Background Measuring factors influencing time to presentation is important in developing and evaluating interventions promote timely cancer diagnosis, yet there a lack of validated, culturally relevant measurement tools. This study aimed develop validate the African Women Awareness CANcer (AWACAN) tool measure awareness breast cervical Sub-Saharan Africa (SSA). Methods Development AWACAN followed 4 steps: 1) Item generation based on existing measures literature. 2) Refinement items via...
Sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P) is a cardioprotective agent. Signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT-3) key mediator many agents. We aimed to explore whether STAT-3 in S1P-induced preconditioning.Langendorff-perfused hearts from Wistar rats wild-type or cardiomyocyte-specific knockout mice were pre-treated with S1P (10 nmol/l), without the pathway inhibitor AG490, before an ischaemia-reperfusion insult. Triphenyltetrazolium chloride Evans blue staining used for determination...
