Glutathione and glutathione reductase: a boon in disguise for plant abiotic stress defense operations

TLDR
An overview of the structure, localization, biosynthesis, and significance of GSH and GR significance in abiotic stress (such as salinity, drought, clilling, heavy metal)-exposed crop plants is presented and also points out unexplored aspects in the current context for future studies.

Regulation of ROS through proficient modulations of antioxidative defense system maintains the structural and functional integrity of photosynthetic apparatus and confers drought tolerance in the facultative halophyte Salvadora persica L.

TL;DR: The results of present study propose that S. persica is a drought tolerant halophyte and it can be a potential candidate for restoration of degraded saline lands of coastal ecosystem.

Green tea polyphenols change the profile of inflammatory cytokine release from lymphocytes of obese and lean rats and protect against oxidative damage.

TL;DR: Cafeteria diet modulated the function of lymphocytes from lymph nodes, increasing ROS production and decreasing anti-inflammatory IL-10, which could contribute to the inflammatory state in obesity.

Exploring drought stress-regulated genes in senna (Cassia angustifolia Vahl.): a transcriptomic approach

TL;DR: The potential drought stress-related transcripts identified in this study provide a good start for further investigation into the drought adaptation in senna and are the valuable resource for accelerated genomics-assisted genetic improvement programs and facilitate manipulation of biochemical pathways for developing drought-tolerant genotypes of crop plants.
Journal ArticleDOI

Phytohormone Interaction Modulating Fruit Responses to Photooxidative and Heat Stress on Apple (Malus domestica Borkh.).

TL;DR: The results suggest that ABA, JA, and SA together with ethylene are modulating some of the abiotic stress defense responses on sun-exposed fruit during photooxidative and heat stress on the tree.
Journal ArticleDOI

In Vivo Imaging with Genetically Encoded Redox Biosensors

TL;DR: The redox sensors that were used in vivo as well as the model systems to which they were applied are described and can serve as a useful guide for biologists and chemists who work in the field of redox processes.

ASCORBATE AND GLUTATHIONE: Keeping Active Oxygen Under Control

TL;DR: A detailed account of current knowledge of the biosynthesis, compartmentation, and transport of these two important antioxidants, with emphasis on the unique insights and advances gained by molecular exploration are provided.

Oxidant and antioxidant signalling in plants: a re-evaluation of the concept of oxidative stress in a physiological context

TL;DR: It is proposed that the oxidative stress syndrome would be more usefully described as 'oxidative signalling', that is, an important and critical function associated with the mechanisms by which plant cells sense the environment and make appropriate adjustments to gene expression, metabolism and physiology.
Journal ArticleDOI

Glutathione in plants: an integrated overview.

TL;DR: How alterations in glutathione status, such as those observed during stress, may participate in signal transduction cascades are discussed and how these alterations are integrated to fine-tune photorespiratory and respiratory metabolism and to modulate phytohormone signalling pathways.
Journal ArticleDOI

Biotechnological approach of improving plant salt tolerance using antioxidants as markers.

TL;DR: The role of different antioxidants as potential selection criteria for improving plant salt tolerance has been critically discussed and the potential of this approach in counteracting stress-induced oxidative stress has been discussed at length in this review.
