## Abstract Copper toxicity is associated with formation of reactive oxygen species, which are capable to oxidize proteins. The selective removal of the latter by the 20S proteasome is considered an essential part of the cell antioxidant defense system. The aim of the present study was to investiga

We previously reported that ethanol elicits an increased protein oxidation in the liver of rats receiving chronic ethanol by continuous intragastric infusion (Tsukamoto-French method). This accumulation of oxidized proteins could result from a decrease in the cytosolic proteolysis, related specifica
Addition of the synthetic glucocorticoid, dexamethasone (Dex) to serum-deprived C 2 C 12 myotubes elicited time-and concentration-dependent changes in Nmethylhistidine (3-MH), a marker of myofibrillar protein degradation. Within 24 h, 100 nM Dex significantly decreased the cell content of 3-MH and i
