Journal ArticleDOI

Protein disulfide isomerase and glutathione are alternative substrates in the one Cys catalytic cycle of glutathione peroxidase 7

TL;DR: GPx7 is an unusual CysGPx catalyzing the peroxidatic cycle by a one Cys mechanism in which GSH and PDI are alternative substrates, suggesting substrate competition in vivo.
Journal ArticleDOI

Hyperbaric oxygen therapy ameliorates osteonecrosis in patients by modulating inflammation and oxidative stress.

TL;DR: Results showed a significant reduction in TNF-α and IL-6 plasma levels over time, which mirrored observed reductions in bone marrow edema and reductions in patient self-reported pain.
Journal ArticleDOI

Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy Improves the Osteogenic and Vasculogenic Properties of Mesenchymal Stem Cells in the Presence of Inflammation In Vitro.

TL;DR: Exposure of osteogenic-differentiating MSCs to HBO under in vitro simulated inflammatory conditions enhances differentiation towards the osteogenic phenotype, providing evidence of the potential application of HBO in all those processes requiring bone regeneration.
Journal ArticleDOI

Hyperbaric oxygen therapy modulates serum OPG/RANKL in femoral head necrosis patients.

TL;DR: Hyperbaric oxygen therapy has beneficial effects on avascular necrosis of femoral head (ANFH), but its mechanism of action is still unclear, and HBOT increased serum OPG levels but receptor activator of nuclear factor kappa-B ligand (RANKL) levels did not change.
Journal ArticleDOI

Spirometry and oxidative stress after rebreather diving in warm water.

TL;DR: Subjects using CCR showed elevated oxidative stress, but this did not correlate with a reduction in pulmonary function, and the role of oxidative state after hyperoxic diving was assessed.
