Wang et al (1997) reported that low concentrations of homocysteine (10 to 50 mol/L) specifically inhibit the growth of endothelial cells
This theory has been augmented by several studies that demonstrated increased markers of oxidative stress (by-products of non-enzymatic lipid peroxidation) in children suffering from konzo as well as documentation of deficiencies in micronutrients which are required to maintain effective antioxidant response in konzo-prone populations 18,19
Elements crucial for ROS control, cell protection, and known antiviral responses include the glutathione cycle, especially the levels of GSH and GSSG forms, along with glutathione-associated enzymes such as glutathione transferases (GSTs), glutathione reductases (GRs), and glutathione peroxidases (GPXs).The involvement of glutathione or glutathione treatment in resistance reactions to plant viruses has been reported for various virus types, including potato virus Y-PVY ( TMV on tobacco ( - pepper interaction ( Nicotiana edwardsonii var
