Redox-Enabled Bio-Electronics for Information Acquisition and Transmission
TL;DR: A review of recent efforts to develop redox-based bioelectronics for the acquisition of information and actuation of responses can be found in this article , where electrodes enable comparatively simple modulation/demodulation because electrodes readily transduce electrical inputs into redox signals.

Multiple enzymes can make hydrogen sulfide from cysteine in Treponema denticola.
TL;DR: It is concluded that the HlyA and HlyB enzymes perform redundant functions in vivo and are the major contributors to H2S production in T. denticola.

Peroxynitrite oxidation of sulfhydryls. The cytotoxic potential of superoxide and nitric oxide.
TL;DR: Peroxynitrite anion was a less effective thiol-oxidizing agent than its anion, with oxidation presumably mediated by the decomposition products, hydroxyl radical and nitrogen dioxide.

Homocysteine and Cardiovascular Disease
TL;DR: In this article, an elevated level of total homocysteine (tHcy) in blood, denoted hyperhomocysteinemia, is emerging as a prevalent and strong risk factor for atherosclerotic vascular disease in the coronary, cerebral, and peripheral vessels, and for arterial and venous thromboembolism.

Albumin as a drug carrier: design of prodrugs, drug conjugates and nanoparticles.
TL;DR: This review gives an account of the different drug delivery systems which make use of albumin as a drug carrier with a focus on those systems that have reached an advanced stage of preclinical evaluation or that have entered clinical trials.
