Key major or recent publications

BOOK:

1) Davies, MJ, & Dean, RT (1997) Radical-mediated protein oxidation: from chemistry to medicine, Oxford University Press, Oxford, pp. 1-443.

The only monograph published on this subject area, and a major research resource in the field.

PAPERS:

2) Dean, RT, Fu, S, Stocker, R, & Davies, MJ (1997) The biochemistry and pathology of radical-mediated protein oxidation, Biochem. J., 324, 1-18. Citations: 2353

A highly cited review on the biological and pathological effects of protein oxidation, that is still attracting significant numbers of citations.

3) Davies, M.J.; Hawkins, C.L.; Pattison, D.I.; Rees, M.D. (2008) Mammalian heme peroxidases: from molecular mechanisms to health implications, Antioxid. Redox Signalling, 10, 1199-1234. Citations: 589

A major review on the role of the mammalian heme proteins, and particularly myeloperoxidase, in the human innate immune system and disease.

4) Davies, M.J. (2016) Protein oxidation and peroxidation, Biochem. J., 473, 805-825. Citations: 734

A review article that established that examined the role of oxidation reactions in protein damage and its consequences.

5) Polonchuk, L.; Chabria, M.; Badi, L.; Hoflack, J.-C.; Figtree, G.; Davies, M.J.; Gentile, C. (2017) Cardiac spheroids as promising in vitro models to study the human heart microenvironment, Sci. Rep., 7:7005. Citations: 147

A ground-breaking study that demonstrated that it was possible to generate 3-dimensional models of the heart that spontaneously beat from human cell types.

6) Hawkins, C.L.; Davies, M.J. (2019) Detection, identification and quantification of oxidative modifications on proteins, J. Biol. Chem., 294, 19683-19708. Citations: 203

A heavily cited recent article that discusses methods to examine protein modifications.

7) Davies, M.J.; Hawkins, C.L. (2020) The role of myeloperoxidase (MPO) in biomolecule modification, chronic inflammation and disease, Antioxid. Redox Signal., 32, 957-981. Citations: 121

A recent heavily cited article that demonstrates that myeloperoxidase plays a major role in damage associated with chronic inflammation and the many diseases associated with this.

8) Hawkins, C.L.; Davies, M.J. (2021) Role of myeloperoxidase and oxidant formation in the extracellular environment in inflammation-induced tissue damage, Free Radic. Biol. Med., 172, 633-651. Citations: 33

A very recent heavily cited article that demonstrates that myeloperoxidase plays a major role of modifying the extracellular matrix that surrounds cells with this determining cell behaviour.

9) Sies, H.; Belousov, V.V.; Chandel, N.S.; Davies, M.J.; Jones, D.P.; Mann, G.E.; Murphy, M.P.; Yamamoto, M.; Winterbourn, C.C. (2022) Defining roles of specific reactive oxygen species (ROS) in cell biology and physiology, Nature Reviews Molecular Cell Biology, 23, 499-515. Citations: 98

A very recent (2022) consensus document from a group of world experts on the role of hydrogen peroxide and other oxidants in cell signalling within and between cells and the role of these species in physiology. Published in one of the highest ranking journals (impact factor 113).

10) Murphy, M.P.; Bayir, H.; Belousov, V.; Chang, C.J.; Davies, K.J.A.; Davies, M.J.; Dick, T.P.; Finkel, T.; Forman, H.J.; Janssen-Heininger, Y.; Gems, D.; Kagan, V.E.; Kalyanaraman, B.; Larsson, N.-G.; Milne, G.L.; Nyström, T.; Poulsen, H.E.; Radi, R.; Van Remmen, H.; Schumacker, P.T.; Thornalley, P.J.; Toyokuni, S.; Winterbourn, C.C.; Yin, H.; Halliwell, B.
