We recently found that long-term exposure to nitric oxide (NO) triggers mitochondrial
biogenesis in mammalian cells and tissues by activation of guanylate cyclase and generation of …

Quercetin uptake in Jurkat cells is extremely rapid and associated with a remarkable
accumulation of the flavonoid, dependent on its binding to intracellular components. Cell-…

Quercetin is rapidly and avidly taken up by human red blood cells (RBC) via a passive
diffusion mechanism, driven by flavonoid binding to haemoglobin and resulting in an almost …

In this study we investigated some biological properties of flavonoids recovered in the aqueous
(AqE) and ether (EtE) extracts from four Italian multifloral honeys. In particular, a cell-free …

Long-term ingestion of arsenicals, a heterogeneous group of toxic compounds, has been
associated with a wide spectrum of human pathologies, which include various malignancies. …

Exposure of rabbit red blood cells to dehydroascorbic acid (DHA) caused a significant
decline in glutathione content which was largely prevented by quercetin, whereas it was …

Reduction of extracellular ferricyanide [Fe(CN) 6 ] −3 to ferrocyanide by intact cells reflects
the activity of a trans-plasma membrane oxidoreductase that, in human red blood cells, …

The plasma membrane oxidoreductase (PMOR) activity, which mainly utilises ascorbate as
intracellular electron donor, represents a major mechanism for cell-dependent reduction of …

Hydrogen peroxide and fetal bovine serum stimulate DNA synthesis in growth-arrested
smooth muscle cells with remarkably similar kinetics and cell density dependence. However, …

Exposure of cultuerd K562 cells to 50 Hz electric (0.2–2.0 kV/m), magnetic (0.002–2 G), or
combined electric and magnetic fields for up to 24 h did not result in the production of …
