Alcoholic proteomics: Ethanol effects on proteins in rat liver and serum

Date: Feb 15, 2013

Author: Steve Down

A dual approach to proteomics changes in the rat following a chronic alcohol diet has examined both serum and rat liver, revealing that only one protein was up-regulated in both matrices.

A menace to mussels: Illicit drugs in waterways induce oxidative stress

Date: Jan 15, 2013

Author: Steve Down

The cocaine metabolite benzoylecgonine causes oxidative stress in freshwater mussels by inducing redox modifications in proteins, some of which are associated with glucose metabolism and cytoskeletal processes.
