    Tyrosine Nitration is a Novel Post-translational Modification Occurring on the Neural Intermediate Filament Protein Peripherin

    The biological implication of protein tyrosine nitration in signaling pathways triggered by nitric oxide is recently emerging. Here we report for the first time that nitrotyrosination occurs in the neural inte...

    Tau is Endogenously Nitrated in Mouse Brain: Identification of a Tyrosine Residue Modified In vivo by NO

    Nitration of tau protein is normally linked to neurodegeneration but, until now, no comprehensive information is available regarding tau nitration in healthy subjects. It has been previously reported that in d...

    Lipid accumulation in human breast cancer cells injured by iron depletors

    Current insights into the effects of iron deficiency in tumour cells are not commensurate with the importance of iron in cell metabolism. Studies have predominantly focused on the effects of oxygen or glucose ...

    The Neuroprotective Role of the GM1 Oligosaccharide, II3Neu5Ac-Gg4, in Neuroblastoma Cells

    Recently, we demonstrated that the GM1 oligosaccharide, II3Neu5Ac-Gg4 (OligoGM1), administered to cultured murine Neuro2a neuroblastoma cells interacts with the NGF receptor TrkA, leading to the activation of the...
