(Elsevier, 2016)Astrocytes are exposed to aminochrome via the oxidation of dopamine that is taken up from the synaptic cleft after its release from dopaminergic neurons. Glutathione transferase M2-2 (GSTM2) has been shown to protect ...
-
(Taylor and Francis Inc., 2014)U373MG cells constitutively express glutathione S-transferase mu 2 (GSTM2) and exhibit 3H-dopamine uptake, which is inhibited by 2 μM of nomifensine and 15 μM of estradiol. We generated a stable cell line (U373MGsiGST6) ...
-
(Springer, 2015)U373MG cells are able to take up aminochrome that induces glutathione transferase M2-2 (GSTM2) expression in a concentration-dependent manner where 100 A mu M aminochrome increases GSTM2 expression by 2.1-fold (P < 0.001) ...

Novel Alpha-Synuclein Oligomers Formed with the Aminochrome-Glutathione Conjugate Are Not Neurotoxic (Springer New York LLC, 2019)© 2018, Springer Science+Business Media, LLC, part of Springer Nature.Aminochrome induces neurotoxic alpha-synuclein oligomer formation relevant to the etiology of Parkinson’s disease. Oxidative stress produces aminochrome ...

(American Chemical Society, 2017)Aminochrome, an orthoquinone formed during the dopamine oxidation of neuromelanin, is neurotoxic because it induces mitochondria dysfunction, protein degradation dysfunction (both autophagy and proteasomal systems), ...
