Project description:The yeast Snt2 protein helps coordinate the transcriptional response to hydrogen-peroxide mediated oxidative stress (rapamycin or DMSO)
Project description:To investigate the effects of oxidative stress induced by hydrogen peroxide(H2O2) on miRNA expression in porcine granulosa cells,we examined the impact of H2O2-mediated oxidative stress in procine GC through miRNA-Seq. We identified 33 (19 upregulated, 14downregulated) and 22 (14 upregulated, 8 downregulated miRNAs) differentially expressed miRNAs (DEmiRNAs) at 300μM and 100μM H2O2, respectively, compared with the control group.
Project description:Oxidative stress caused by Menadione or Hydrogen peroxide in synchronized Saccharomyces cerevisiae cultures. Alpha factor synchronized cultures (0.2-0.4 OD), treated at the beginning of S phase (25 min after release from G1 arrest) with either 2 mM Menadione (MD) or 0.24 mM Hydrogen peroxide (HP), show cell cycle effects. Cells treated with MD arrested at G1. Cells treated with HP delayed at S and then, after removal of HP at 135 minutes , continued the cell cycle, only to arrest at G2/M. Growth was carried out in 30C with shaking (295 rpm). Two time course experiments were performed with each oxidative stress agent, designated as H2O2 and H2O2_II, MD and MD_II. Keywords = oxidative stress Keywords = menadione Keywords = hydrogen peroxide Keywords = time course Keywords = cell cycle Keywords = yeast

Project description:Cells counteract oxidative stress by altering metabolism, cell cycle and gene expression. However, the mechanisms that coordinate these adaptations are only marginally understood. Here we provide evidence that timing of these responses in yeast requires export of the polyamines spermidine and spermine. We show that during hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) exposure, the polyamine transporter Tpo1 controls spermidine and spermine concentrations and mediates induction of antioxidant proteins, including Hsp70, Hsp90, Hsp104 and Sod1. Moreover, Tpo1 determines a cell cycle delay during adaptation to increased oxidant levels, and affects H2O2 tolerance. Thus, central components of the stress response are timed through Tpo1‐controlled polyamine export.
Project description:Hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) can act as a signaling molecule that influences various aspects of plant growth and development, including stress signaling and cell death. Catalase deficient plants are pioneering systems which accumulate hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) from peroxisomal origin during photorespiratory challenges. Respiratory burst oxidase homologues D and F are known to participate in intracellular oxidative stress response launched in cat2 mutants (Chaouch et al., 2012). We studied the compared the transcriptional response of cat2 rbohD and cat2 rbohF double mutants versus the cat2 background to further adress their role during photorespiratory stress.

Project description:Green plants are more robust to hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) stress and contain high endogeneous H2O2 levels which is generated during photorespiration and photosynthesis. Therefore, exgeneous H2O2 application mostly impose oxidative stress. To reduce endogenous H2O2 background, we adopted a strategy which is to grow Arabidopsis seedlings in the dark to eliminate light-induced H2O2 production, thus to reduce the endogenous H2O2 level. Exogenous H2O2 was then applied to induce transcriptome changes. Global gene expression is studied and compared between samples collected under 7d dark, 7d H2O2 treatment under dark and 7d light conditions.
