Abstract excerpt
Mutations in Cu, Zn-superoxide dismutase (Sod1) have been associated with familial amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, an age-related disease. Because several studies suggest that oxidative stress plays a central role in neurodegeneration, we aimed to investigate the role of the antioxidant glutathione (GSH) in the activation of human A4V Sod1 during chronological aging. Transformation of wild-type and A4V hSod1 into...
