Mutations in SEPN1 result in a spectrum of early-onset muscle disorders referred to as SEPN1-related myopathy. The SEPN1 gene encodes selenoprotein N (SelN), which contains the amino acid selenocysteine (Sec). Incorporation of Sec occurs due to redefinition of a UGA codon during translation. Efficie

To determine new polymorphisms in the antioxidant enzymes superoxide dismutase, glutathione peroxidases, catalase, and microsomal glutathione transferase 1, a search of the human expressed sequence tags (EST) database was performed (with BLAST 2.0). When any mutation, indicated by the BLAST search,
## Abstract In the present study, a toxic mechanism of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) was investigated in the nematode, __Caenorhabditis elegans__, focusing on the involvement of oxidative stress in reproduction toxicity. Initially, AgNPs were tested as potential oxidative stress inducers, and increa
## Abstract Tetrahydropapaveroline (THP) is a compound derived from dopamine monoamine oxidase–mediated metabolism, particularly present in the brain of parkinsonian patients receiving L‐dopa therapy, and is capable of causing dopaminergic neurodegeneration. The aim of this work was to evaluate the
