  2. 1. Equine glutathione transferase A3-3 : an efficient steroid isomerase

    Author : Helena Lindström; Bengt Mannervik; Ann-Kristin Östlund Farrants; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Equine; glutatione transferase; steroidogenesis; steroid isomerase; neurokemi med molekylär neurobiologi; Neurochemistry with Molecular Neurobiology;

    Abstract : Glutathione transferases (GSTs) comprise a superfamily of enzymes prominently involved in detoxication by making toxic electrophiles more polar and therefore more easily excretable. However some GSTs have developed alternative functions. READ MORE

    Abstract : Apoptosis is one of the most common types of cell death. Under physiological conditions, it plays an essential role in removal of damaged and potentially harmful cells. Excessive apoptosis has however been linked to a number of diseases including proteinuric kidney disease and DKD, and is believed to enhance the disease progression. READ MORE

    Author : Sean Waters; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Abstract : The present investigations were initiated to study changes in hepatic nucleiduring the 17-ß estradiol induced synthesis of vitellogenin in Atlantic salmon(Salmo salar). As a model system for the naturally maturing fish parr andsmoltified salmon were used and treated with the steroid hormone. READ MORE
