Although the general mechanisms of lipid oxidation are known, chemical steps through which photosensitizers and light permeabilize membranes still poorly understood. Herein we characterized products photooxidation their effects on bilayers, also giving insight into formation pathways. Our experimental system was designed to allow two phenothiazinium-based (methylene blue, MB, DO15) deliver same amount singlet oxygen molecules per second 1-palmitoyl-2-oleoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine...
N1-acetyl-N2-formyl-5-methoxykynuramine (AMFK) is a major metabolite of melatonin in mammals. To investigate whether AFMK exists plants, an aquatic plant, water hyacinth, was used. achieve this, LC/MS/MS with deuterated standard employed. identified any plant for the first time. Both it and its precursor, melatonin, were rhythmic peaks during late light phase. These novel rhythms indicate that these molecules do not serve as chemical signal darkness animals but may relate to processes...
The decomposition of lipid hydroperoxides into peroxyl radicals is a potential source singlet oxygen (1O2) in biological systems. We report herein on evidence the generation 1O2 from involving cyclic mechanism linear tetraoxide intermediate proposed by Russell. Using 18O-labeled linoleic acid hydroperoxide (LA18O18OH) presence Ce4+ or Fe2+, we observed formation (18[1O2]) chemical trapping with 9,10-diphenylanthracene (DPA) and detected corresponding DPA endoperoxide (DPA18O18O)...

Protecting human skin from sun exposure is a complex issue that involves unclear aspects of the interaction between light and tissue. A persistent misconception visible safe for skin, although several lines evidence suggest otherwise. Here, we show can damage melanocytes through melanin photosensitization singlet oxygen (1O2) generation, thus decreasing cell viability, increasing membrane permeability, causing both DNA photo-oxidation necro-apoptotic death. UVA (355 nm) (532 photosensitize...
Abstract Glucose modulates plant metabolism, growth, and development. In Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana), Hexokinase1 (HXK1) is a glucose sensor that may trigger abscisic acid (ABA) synthesis sensitivity to mediate glucose-induced inhibition of seedling Here, we show the intensity short-term responses can vary with ABA activity. We report transient (2 h/4 h) repression by 2% AtbZIP63, gene encoding basic-leucine zipper (bZIP) transcription factor partially involved in Snf1-related kinase...
