Red Blood Cells as a "Central Hub" for Sulfide Bioactivity: Scavenging, Metabolism, Transport, and Cross-Talk with Nitric Oxide
During the Paris Redox 2021 Congress which will be held on October 13-15, 2021 as Virtual Congress, Prof. Miriam Margherita Cortese-Krott from Heinrich Heine University Düsseldorf, Germany will present a major talk entitled "Red Blood Cells as a "Central Hub" for Sulfide Bioactivity: Scavenging, Metabolism, Transport, and Cross-Talk with Nitric Oxide".
Summary of presentation: Besides their role as oxygen carriers, red blood cells have been recently demonstrated to participate in systemic NO and sulfide metabolism and to be a potent circulating antioxidant cell. This talk will summarize recent evidence analysing the reactive species interactome in RBCs and how this may affect the cardiovascular system.
