... that variation in resistance to oxidative stress plays a role in these differences. Functional data are needed to test this hypothesis. Here, we compared three Mytilus congeners to examine whether susceptibility to oxidative stress contributes to acute heat tolerance. We assayed the activity of two antioxidant...

However, two main assumptions of the hypothesis remain in question: whether carotenoids boost the performance of internal processes such as immune and antioxidant defenses, and whether allocating carotenoids to ornaments imposes a trade-off with such benefits. In this study, we tested these two...

...Daniel Munro; Jason R. Treberg ABSTRACT Mitochondria are widely recognized as a source of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in animal cells, where it is assumed that over-production of ROS leads to an overwhelmed antioxidant system and oxidative stress. In this Commentary, we describe a more nuanced...

To test the hypothesis that the antioxidant system of hooded seals develops as they transition from a terrestrial to an aquatic environment, we obtained the complete cDNA sequence that encodes the NF-E2-related factor 2 (Nrf2), a central regulator of the antioxidant response, and compared...
