As we grow older, it’s normal to experience some level of forgetfulness or slower thinking. But what exactly causes this ...

The brain runs on energy. Every thought, memory, or emotion sparks countless signals between nerve cells. That communication ...

The research team focused on a chemical process known as S-nitrosylation. This process occurs when a molecule related to nitric oxide attaches to sulfur atoms within proteins, changing how those ...

Researchers from Scripps Research (CA, USA) led by Stuart Lipton have discovered that a chemical reaction – S-nitrosylation – is increased in response to toxins and alters a key protein involved in ...

The study observed how exposure to toxins and inflammation can lead to S-nitrosylation that can disrupt healthy brain function, leading to brain disorders. S-nitrosylation, usually triggered by ...

The study also adds to growing research that links oxidative stress—when harmful molecules like nitric oxide build up in the ...

The abbreviation for the reaction is SNO – and there is a ‘SNO-storm in your brain’ due to air pollution. S-Nitrosylation of ...

NO SIGNALING:© 2003 Annual ReviewsAll images redrawn from D. Boehning, S.H. Snyder, Ann Rev Neurosci, 26:105–31, 2003.Neuronal nitric oxide synthase (nNOS) is localized to NMDA receptors by the ...

Prof. Amal’s research indicates that disruptions in nitric oxide (NO)-related pathways, especially S-nitrosylation, may play a crucial role in the disease’s onset. The study found consistent ...

Nitric oxide (NO) is a gaseous signalling molecule that is involved in the regulation of the cardiovascular, immune and nervous systems. In the CNS, NO is involved in many processes, including the ...

Mortierella alpina is an oleaginous filamentous fungus with a strong ability to accumulate polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) and has been used in industrial production of arachidonic acids (ARA) ...
