C16:0 ceramide maintains synaptic integrity and plasticity, especially under conditions of metabolic stress or excess fatty acids assuring memory and learning (Furuya et al., 1998)
Im here to make sure that everybody has a hope, a chance to survive, chance to thrive, chance to live the full potential of their life
A recent study demonstrated the ability of a dendrimer-conjugated NAC (D-NAC) to specifically target glial and astrocyte cells, indicating potential to alter GSH levels in specific cell populations without altering levels throughout the CNS ( One of the most well-established properties of GSH is its role in maintaining redox homeostasis, but it is also emerging as a mediator of redox signaling through mechanisms such as protein S-glutathionylation and/or GSNO-mediated protein S-nitrosylation (Zhang and Forman, 2012)
Natural hosts such as pigeons, amoebae, and nematodes have contributed to the development of thermotolerance and resistance to phagocytosis in Cryptococcus ( May et al., 2016 )
