[HTML][HTML] Resistance training to improve type 2 diabetes: working toward a prescription for the future

DH Pesta, RLS Goncalves, AK Madiraju, B Strasser… - Nutrition & …, 2017 - Springer
The prevalence of type 2 diabetes (T2D) is rapidly increasing, and effective strategies to
manage and prevent this disease are urgently needed. Resistance training (RT) promotes …

[HTML][HTML] Sites of superoxide and hydrogen peroxide production by muscle mitochondria assessed ex vivo under conditions mimicking rest and exercise

RLS Goncalves, CL Quinlan… - Journal of Biological …, 2015 - ASBMB
The sites and rates of mitochondrial production of superoxide and H 2 O 2 in vivo are not yet
defined. At least 10 different mitochondrial sites can generate these species. Each site has …

[HTML][HTML] The 2-oxoacid dehydrogenase complexes in mitochondria can produce superoxide/hydrogen peroxide at much higher rates than complex I

CL Quinlan, RLS Goncalves, M Hey-Mogensen… - Journal of Biological …, 2014 - ASBMB
Several flavin-dependent enzymes of the mitochondrial matrix utilize NAD + or NADH at
about the same operating redox potential as the NADH/NAD + pool and comprise the NADH/…

[HTML][HTML] The contributions of respiration and glycolysis to extracellular acid production

SA Mookerjee, RLS Goncalves, AA Gerencser… - … et Biophysica Acta (BBA …, 2015 - Elsevier
Background The rate at which cells acidify the extracellular medium is frequently used to
report glycolytic rate, with the implicit assumption that conversion of uncharged glucose or …

[HTML][HTML] Blood Meal-Derived Heme Decreases ROS Levels in the Midgut of Aedes aegypti and Allows Proliferation of Intestinal Microbiota

JHM Oliveira, RLS Gonçalves, FA Lara, FA Dias… - PLoS …, 2011 - journals.plos.org
The presence of bacteria in the midgut of mosquitoes antagonizes infectious agents, such
as Dengue and Plasmodium, acting as a negative factor in the vectorial competence of the …

Suppressors of superoxide production from mitochondrial complex III

…, J Li, DC Quackenbush, RLS Goncalves… - Nature chemical …, 2015 - nature.com
Mitochondrial electron transport drives ATP synthesis but also generates reactive oxygen
species, which are both cellular signals and damaging oxidants. Superoxide production by …

[PDF][PDF] Suppressors of superoxide-H2O2 production at site IQ of mitochondrial complex I protect against stem cell hyperplasia and ischemia-reperfusion injury

MD Brand, RLS Goncalves, AL Orr, L Vargas… - Cell metabolism, 2016 - cell.com
Using high-throughput screening we identified small molecules that suppress superoxide
and/or H 2 O 2 production during reverse electron transport through mitochondrial respiratory …

Brown adipose tissue thermogenic adaptation requires Nrf1-mediated proteasomal activity

…, C Schlein, K Johann, RLS Goncalves… - Nature medicine, 2018 - nature.com
Adipocytes possess remarkable adaptive capacity to respond to nutrient excess, fasting or
cold exposure, and they are thus an important cell type for the maintenance of proper …

[HTML][HTML] The effects on Trypanosoma cruzi of novel synthetic naphthoquinones are mediated by mitochondrial dysfunction

RFS Menna-Barreto, RLS Goncalves, EM Costa… - Free Radical Biology …, 2009 - Elsevier
Despite ongoing efforts, the current treatment for Chagas disease is still unsatisfactory, mainly
because of the severe side effects and variable efficacy of the available nitroheterocycles. …

The determination and analysis of site-specific rates of mitochondrial reactive oxygen species production

CL Quinlan, IV Perevoschikova, RLS Goncalves… - Methods in …, 2013 - Elsevier
Mitochondrial reactive oxygen species (ROS) are widely implicated in physiological and
pathological pathways. We propose that it is critical to understand the specific sites of …
