Permanganate Reduction by Hydrogen Peroxide: Formation of Reactive Manganese Species and Superoxide and Enhanced Micropollutant Abatement

Urs von Gunten, Ke Xu

Permanganate (MnO4-, Mn(VII)) is widely applied at the initial stage of water treatment to, e.g., abate taste and odor compounds, Mn(II) and Fe(II). However, its selectivity limits its application for micropollutant abatement. Hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), whi ...

Mechanism of Oxygen Evolution Catalyzed by Cobalt Oxyhydroxide: Cobalt Superoxide Species as a Key Intermediate and Dioxygen Release as a Rate-Determining Step

Xile Hu, Seunghwa Lee, Aliki Moysiadou

The oxygen evolution reaction (OER) is the performance-limiting half reaction of water splitting, which can be used to produce hydrogen fuel using renewable energies. Whereas a number of transition metal oxides and oxyhydroxides have been developed as prom ...

Highly stable enzyme-mimicking nanocomposite of antioxidant activity

Bálint Náfrádi, Marko Pavlovic

A highly stable nanocomposite of antioxidant activity was developed by immobilization of a superoxide dismutase-mimicking metal complex on copolymer-functionalized nanoclay. The layered double hydroxide (LDH) nanoclays were synthesized and surface modifica ...

Pathogenic commonalities between spinal muscular atrophy and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis: Converging roads to therapeutic development

Bernard Schneider

Spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) are the two most common motoneuron disorders, which share typical pathological hallmarks while remaining genetically distinct. Indeed, SMA is caused by deletions or mutations in the surv ...

AAV based gene therapy for rare diseases : targeting astrocytes for functional recovery in Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis

Cylia Cloé Rochat

Of the seven thousand diseases that are described as rare, 80% of them have an identified genetic cause. With this in the mind, the development of technologies, such as gene therapy, to address the genetic factors involved in these pathologies, might be a ...

Mild endothelial dysfunction in Sirt3 knockout mice fed a high-cholesterol diet: protective role of a novel C/EBP-β-dependent feedback regulation of SOD2

Johan Auwerx, Julien Weber

Sirtuin 3 (Sirt3) is an NAD(+)-dependent mitochondrial deacetylase associated with superoxide dismutase 2 (SOD2)-mediated protection from oxidative stress. We have reported accelerated weight gain and impaired metabolic flexibility in atherosclerotic Sirt3 ...

SOD1 silencing in motoneurons or glia rescues neuromuscular function in ALS mice

Patrick Aebischer, Bernard Schneider, Christopher Towne, Elisabeth Anne Dirren, Julianne Bobela, Cylia Cloé Rochat

Objective: Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis is an incurable disorder mainly characterized by motoneuron degeneration. Mutations in the superoxide dismutase 1 (SOD1) gene account for 20% of familial forms of the disease. Mutant SOD1 exerts multiple pathogenic ...

Type 5 adenylyl cyclase disruption leads to enhanced exercise performance

Johan Auwerx, Laurent Mouchiroud, Richardus Houtkooper, Jie Zhang

The most important physiological mechanism mediating enhanced exercise performance is increased sympathetic, beta adrenergic receptor (beta-AR), and adenylyl cyclase (AC) activity. This is the first report of decreased AC activity mediating increased exerc ...

Transcriptomic characterization of the enzymatic antioxidants FeSOD, MnSOD, APX and KatG in the dinoflagellate genus Symbiodinium

Thomas Krüger

Background The diversity of the symbiotic dinoflagellate Symbiodinium sp., as assessed by genetic markers, is well established. To what extent this diversity is reflected on the amino acid level of functional genes such as enzymatic antioxidants that play ...

Astrocyte–neuron co-culture on microchips based on the model of SOD mutation to mimic ALS

Philippe Renaud, Pierre Magistretti, Patrick Aebischer, Sylvain Eric Lengacher, Anja Kunze, Elisabeth Anne Dirren

Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is the most common motor neuron disease. ALS is believed to be a non-cell autonomous condition, as other cell types, including astrocytes, have been implicated in disease pathogenesis. Hence, to facilitate the developmen ...

Manganese Oxidation Induced by Water Table Fluctuations in a Sand Column

Janet Gordon Hering

On off cycles of production wells, especially in bank filtration settings, cause oscillations in the local water table, which can deliver significant amounts of dissolved oxygen (DO) to the shallow groundwater. The potential for DO introduced in this manne ...

Interaction of inflammation and hyperoxia in a rat model of neonatal white matter damage

Yohan Van de Looij

Intrauterine infection and inflammation are major reasons for preterm birth. The switch from placenta-mediated to lung-mediated oxygen supply during birth is associated with a sudden rise of tissue oxygen tension that amounts to relative hyperoxia in prete ...

Transition from Mn4+ to Mn3+ induced by surface reconstruction at lambda-MnO2(001)

Alfonso Baldereschi, Zeljko Sljivancanin

Structural and electronic properties of the lambda-MnO2(001) surface are investigated applying density functional theory approach. The calculations show that all Mn ions at unreconstructed smooth surface preserve the +4 oxidation state observed in the bulk ...
