Dityrosine is a dimer of tyrosine, formed by oxidative coupling of two tyrosine residues. It is a naturally occurring compound found in various organisms, including humans, where it is formed in response to oxidative stress. Dityrosine is synthesized through the action of enzymes such as tyrosinase, laccases, and peroxidases, which catalyze the oxidation of tyrosine to tyrosyl radical. These radicals then combine to form dityrosine. Dityrosine plays a role in various biological processes, including protein cross-linking, pigmentation, and defense against oxidative stress. In proteins, dityrosine cross-links contribute to the structural integrity and stability of collagen, elastin, and other proteins. Dityrosine is also a biomarker of oxidative stress, and its presence in biological samples can indicate the level of oxidative damage. Its formation is also associated with several diseases, including Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, and cancer. Due to its relevance in various biological processes and its potential as a biomarker, dityrosine has been extensively studied in research. Researchers are investigating the mechanisms of dityrosine formation, its biological functions, and its potential as a therapeutic target for various diseases.'

Dityrosine (DT) is a protein oxidation marker present in many high-protein foods, such as dairy and meat products. Dityrosin is a fluorescent molecule formed as a result of normal posttranslational processing.
Dityrosine cross-linking has been shown in Aβ plaques in AD and α-synuclein aggregates in Lewy bodies in ex vivo tissue sections. This modification may increase the insolubility of these aggregates and their resistance to degradation.

Goiter Enlargement of the THYROID GLAND that may increase from about 20 grams to hundreds of grams in human adults. Goiter is observed in individuals with normal thyroid function (euthyroidism), thyroid deficiency (HYPOTHYROIDISM), or hormone overproduction (HYPERTHYROIDISM).

Cystic Fibrosis of Pancreas [description not available] | 0 | 2 | 1 | 0 |
Cystic Fibrosis An autosomal recessive genetic disease of the EXOCRINE GLANDS. It is caused by mutations in the gene encoding the CYSTIC FIBROSIS TRANSMEMBRANE CONDUCTANCE REGULATOR expressed in several organs including the LUNG, the PANCREAS, the BILIARY SYSTEM, and the SWEAT GLANDS. Cystic fibrosis is characterized by epithelial secretory dysfunction associated with ductal obstruction resulting in AIRWAY OBSTRUCTION; chronic RESPIRATORY INFECTIONS; PANCREATIC INSUFFICIENCY; maldigestion; salt depletion; and HEAT PROSTRATION. | 0 | 2 | 1 | 0 |

Kwashiorkor A syndrome produced by severe protein deficiency, characterized by retarded growth, changes in skin and hair pigment, edema, and pathologic changes in the liver, including fatty infiltration, necrosis, and fibrosis. The word is a local name in Gold Coast, Africa, meaning displaced child. Although first reported from Africa, kwashiorkor is now known throughout the world, but mainly in the tropics and subtropics. It is considered to be related to marasmus. (From Dorland, 27th ed) | 0 | 2 | 1 | 0 |

Iron Overload An excessive accumulation of iron in the body due to a greater than normal absorption of iron from the gastrointestinal tract or from parenteral injection. This may arise from idiopathic hemochromatosis, excessive iron intake, chronic alcoholism, certain types of refractory anemia, or transfusional hemosiderosis.
