Arsenite (AsIII) is known for inducing severe oxidative stress and skin carcinogenesis. Contrastingly, phytochemical, epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG) combats toxic insults. Our study focused on the effect of EGCG on redox status of AsIII-stressed normal human keratinocytes, HaCaT cells. EGCG (50 μm) increased

Catalases, enzymes that detoxify H2O2, are widely distributed in all phyla, including cyanobacteria. Unlike the heme-containing catalases, the physiological roles of Mn-catalases remain inadequately characterized. In the cyanobacterium Anabaena, pretreatment of cells with NaCl resulted in unusually enhanced tolerance to
