Iron regulatory factor (IRF) is a cytoplasmic mRNA-binding protein that coordinates post-transcriptionally the expression of several important proteins in iron metabolism. Binding of IRF to iron-responsive elements (IRE) in the 5' untranslated region (UTR) ...
A biomimetic four-helix bundle with a binuclear active site (DF1), bearing Zn, Mn or Fe as transition metals, has been synthesized and characterized. The carboxylate bridged binuclear motif of DF1 resembles the active site of numerous binuclear enzymes, su ...
The aim of this series of two publications is to characterise radical reactions of organic molecules, occurring in atmospheric water phases. In this second study, the reactions occurring in a mixed peroxyl radical system generated from the OH radical attac ...
Meta(tetrahydroxyphenyl)chlorin (m-THPC) is a new photosensitizer currently undergoing clin. trials at Lausanne's CHUV hospital for photodynamic therapy (PDT) of early cancer in the upper aerodigestive tract. The illumination of m-THPC with light at 650 nm ...
A subpopulation of familial cases of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis has been linked to mutations in the gene encoding Cu/Zn superoxide dismutase (SOD1). There is in vitro evidence that certain SOD1 mutants, in addition to their normal dismutation function, ...
Zinc(II) phthalocyanine (ZnPC) is a new photosensitizer currently undergoing phase I and II clinical trials at Lausanne's CHUV hospital for the photodynamic therapy (PDT) of early cancer in the upper aerodigestive tract. Activated oxygen species other than ...
Benzoporphyrin deriv. monoacid ring A [BPD-MA (I)], a chlorin-type mol., is a new photosensitizer currently in phase II clin. trials for the treatment by photodynamic therapy of cancerous lesions, psoriasis and pathol. neovascularization. The photochem. (t ...
Changes in the production of reactive oxygen species and total superoxide dismutase activity have been observed during differentiation of some hematopoietic cells. We therefore investigated whether the steady-state level and rate of transcription of supero ...

Stimulation of the macrophage-like cell line THP-1 with the phorbol ester phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA) resulted in differentiation into cells with many features of macrophages. This differentiation was accompanied by transcriptional activation of ...
