Transmission electron microscopy has also shown that pregnant women with PCOS have reduced mitochondrial volume, concentrated mitochondrial membrane density, no mitochondrial ridge, and ruptured mitochondrial outer membrane (key characteristics of mitochondrial morphological changes during ferroptosis)
In the context of any estrogen-pathway support that elevates estradiol providing more Phase 1 substrate for CYP1B1 to convert to 4-OHE2 all three Phase 2 pathways are simultaneously at their minimum capacity
The cells were collected 48 h post-transfection, washed twice with PBS and lysed in 1 ml of HEPES buffer (20 mM HEPES-KOH (pH 7.9), 300 mM KCl, 0.2 % NP-40, 15 % glycerol, 1 mM DTT and protease inhibitors, Sigma-Aldrich, P8340) for 20 min
3-PLG-ibu-A-GSH) nanocarriers we performed co-localization imaging with the Golgi apparatus in living brain endothelial cells (Fig S8)
