    Effect of expression of manganese superoxide dismutase in baculovirus-infected insect cells

    It has previously been demonstrated that baculovirus infection of the Spodoptera frugiperda Sf-9 (Sf-9) and Trichoplusia ni BTI-Tn-5B1-4 (Tn-5B1-4) insect cell lines leads to oxidative stress as measured by prote...

    Eicosapentaenoic Acid Alters Manganese Superoxide Dismutase Immunoreactive Protein Levels in Normal But not Maligant Central Nervous System Derived Cells

    The dose of radiation that safely can be administered to patients with malignant gliomas is limited by the potential for severe CNS morbidity. Manipulations that might increase the radiation sensitivity of gli...

    Overexpression of Glia Maturation Factor in C6 Cells Promotes Differentiation and Activates Superoxide Dismutase

    In order to evaluate the intracellular function of glia maturation factor (GMF), we overexpressed GMF in C6 rat glioma cells using two methods: stable transfection using the pcDNA3 plasmid, and transient trans...

    Role of antioxidant enzymes in cell immortalization and transformation

    The role of antioxidant enzymes, particularly superoxide dismutase (SOD), in immortalization and malignant transformation is discussed. SOD (generally MnSOD) has been found to be lowered in a wide variety of t...
