Antioxidant mechanisms of the nereidid Laeonereis acuta (Anelida: Polychaeta) to cope with environmental hydrogen peroxide
Hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) is a naturally occurring prooxidant molecule, and its effects in the macroinvertebrate infauna were previously observed. The existence of a gradient of antioxidant enzymes activity (catalase [CAT], glutathione peroxidase [GPx], superoxide dismutase [SOD], and glutathione-S-t...
