Abstract

Human peroxiredoxin (Prx) play important roles in eliminating hydrogen peroxide generated during cellular mechanisms using electrons from thioredoxin (Trx). Oxidative stress induced by reactive oxygen species (ROS) such as hydrogen peroxide has been implicated in the pathogenesis of several neurodegenerative diseases. We applied the proteomic approach to study protein levels of three subtypes of human Prx in brain regions from patients with Alzheimer's disease (AD) and Down Syndrome (DS). Protein levels of Prx-I and Prx-II were significantly increased in AD and DS. Protein levels of Prx-III, a mitochondrial protein, however, were significantly decreased. We conclude that increased protein levels of Prx-I and Prx-II could provide protection against neuronal cell death induced by hydrogen peroxide. Decreased protein levels of Prx-III could be caused by mitochondrial damage shown in AD and DS. Showing upregulated Prx protein levels provides evidence for the involvement of ROS in the pathogenesis of AD and DS.

Attention Score in Context

Attention Score in Context

This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 3. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 26 April 2018.
All research outputs
#7,454,066
of 22,788,370 outputs
Outputs from Journal of neural transmission Supplementum
#21
of 99 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#26,432
of 114,248 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Journal of neural transmission Supplementum
#3
of 10 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 22,788,370 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 44th percentile – i.e., 44% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 99 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 4.1. This one is in the 26th percentile – i.e., 26% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 114,248 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 17th percentile – i.e., 17% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 10 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has scored higher than 7 of them.
