The oxidative modification of lipoprotein especially low density lipoprotein (LDL) plays a key role in the initiation and
progression of atherosclerosis. Serum apolipoproteinB (apoB) level is found to be an important marker for atherosclerosis.
The present paper focuses on the measurement of serum apoB levels and the effect of Vitamin E, Vitamin C and reduced glutathione
on the copper ion induced oxidation of LDL + VLDL (VLDL-Very Low Density Lipoprotein) lipoprotein fraction isolated from the
serum of chronic renal failure (CRF) and renal transplanted patients. The level of apoB is significantly higher in the serum
of transplanted patients when compared to CRF patients and normal subjects. The level of TBARS formed in oxidized LDL + VLDL
lipoprotein fraction of CRF and renal transplanted patients are significantly increased than normal even in the presence of
antioxidants but the level of TBARS produced, with antioxidants is comparatively lesser than that produced by oxidized lipoprotein
fraction without antioxidants. It may be concluded than that produced by oxidized lipoprotein fraction without antioxidants.
It may be concluded that oxidation of LDL can be prevented at an earlier stage by Vitamin E supplementation. The supplementation
with Glutathione serves as the best method of preventing the lipoprotein oxidation among the renal diseased patients. 相似文献

Evidence of increased oxidative stress in patients of osteoarthritis in comparison with healthy control subjects was investigated
by measuring the thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS), vitamin C, reduced glutathione (GSH) and the activities
of superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase and glutathione peroxidase (GPx) in erythrocytes. It was observed that osteoarthritis
patients were more susceptible to oxidative damage than controls as evident from increased TBARS and decreased ascorbic acid,
GSH, catalase and GPx in erythrocytes. Significant increase in SOD activity found in patients might be an adaptive response.
With the understanding of the role of antioxidants in arthritis, it is becoming increasingly clear that these agents seem
to be beneficial in osteoarthritis. 相似文献

The objective of the study was to observe the correlation between oxidative stress and antioxidants in myocardial infarct
patients with normal lipid profile. In the present study investigation of lipid peroxidation and antioxidants were done in
patients. This study was carried out on 165 AMI patients, (123 males and 42 females). The control group consisted on 165 normal
healthy age-sex matched subjects (123 males and 42 females). Levels of Superoxide dismutase, Glutathione Peroxidase, Catalase,
Malondialdehyde and Conjugated dienes were measured. The study found Superoxide dismutase, Glutathione Peroxidase, Catalase
were significantly lower in activities (p<0.001) in AMI patients compared to controls. The markers of lipid peroxidation namely
Malondialdehyde and Conjugated dienes were higher in AMI patients as compared to controls (p<0.001). The present study is
clearly suggestive of increased oxidative stress in AMI patients. Oxidative stress appears as an etiological factor for myocardial
infraction as a consequence the free radical scavengers levels are lowered in AMI patient. 相似文献

The main objective of the study was to assess the oxidative stress in plasma and erythrocytes of rheumatoid arthritis patients
by measuring the levels of thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS), non-enzymatic antioxidants (vitamin E, C and reduced
glutathione) and enzymatic antioxidants [superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase (CAT) and glutathione peroxidase (GSHPx)]. This
study has been conducted on twenty-two adult female rheumatoid arthritis patients and an equal number of healthy subjects.
Elevated lipid peroxidation and multidirectional changes in the antioxidant defence system were noticed in patients with rheumatoid
arthritis. The enhanced lipid peroxidation accompanied by disturbance in antioxidant status indicates that rheumatoid arthritis
patients are more prone to free radical mediated oxidative damage. 相似文献

Reactive oxygen species are thought to be involved in the pathogenesis of Malaria. To assess the extent of oxidative stress,
a study was conducted in patients withPlasmodium falciparum malaria andPlasmodium Vivax malaria. Plasma Thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS) were measured to assess the degree of lipid peroxidation.
Antioxidant status was measured by estimating the levels of Vitamins E and C. Results were compared with age and sex matched
control subjects. This study suggests that plasma TBARS levels were significantly increased in malaria patients. The patients
withP. falciparum infection showed significantly increased levels of lipid peroxides when compared toP. vivax malaria. The antioxidant Vitamins E and C were decreased significantly in malaria patients in both the groups. Maximum decline
in Vitamin C was observed inP. vivax malaria. Therefore it is been hypothesized that antioxidant Vitamins E and C could provide protection against the oxidative
stress induced by malaria. 相似文献

Oxidative stress was assesed by estimating lipid peroxidation product (LPO) in the form of thiobarbituric acid reactive substances
(TBARS), enzymatic antioxidants in the form of superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase and nonenzymatic antioxidant vitamins
e.g. vitamin C, β carotene and vitamin E in either serum or plasma or erythrocytes in 190 cases of age related cataract in
the age group of 50–80 years. 190 cases were grouped into three morphological types namely, 73 cases of cortical, 77 cases
of posterior subcapsular and 40 cases of nuclear cataract and values of LPO and antioxidants were compared with 78 cases of
age matched healthy control groups. Plasma TBARS levels were cataract cases when compared with control groups. There were
no significant differences in the erythrocyte levels of catalase and plasma levels of Vit E between cataract cases and control
groups. No significant changes of parameters were seen among three different morphological types of age related cataract.
The present study shows that the oxidative stress may play an important role in the age related cataract. 相似文献

Extensive research has demonstrated the protective properties of antioxidants, which scavenge reactive oxygen species and their precursors, as well as up-regulate enzymes involved in the repair of cellular damage. Several case–control studies have showed higher blood levels of antioxidants and decreased oxidative stress in younger individuals when compared with older ones. Cell damage caused by free radicals appears to be a major contributor in aging and degenerative diseases of aging such as cancer, cardiovascular disease, cataracts, compromised immune system, rheumatoid arthritis and brain dysfunction. The objective of this study was to determine the variation of Circulating levels of selected antioxidants (enzymic and non enzymic) and oxidative stress marker in younger and older humans. The results showed that a majority of the younger age group participants showed a significant increase in enzymic and nonenzymic antioxidant status and a decrease in oxidative stress when compared with the older age group. 相似文献

Lipid peroxidation by measurement of Thiobarbituric Acid Reactive Substances (TBARS) and antioxidant status by determining
the activities of the enzymes, Catalase (Cat), Glutathione Peroxidase (GPx) and Superoxide Dismutase (SOD) and the level of
Reduced Glutathione (GSH) in the erythrocytes of patients with type 2 Diabetes Mellitus were investigated. It was observed
that the level of TBARS in the erythrocytes was increased by 50% showing a significant generation of free radicals in the
erythrocytes of these patients. The activities of both Cat and SOD were enhanced while that of GPx was not altered. The level
of GSH was also not changed. 相似文献

The study was conducted to find out the extent of lipid peroxidation and antioxidant status in ischemic stroke patients (ISPs)
with and without diabetes. Malondialdehyde (MDA) was studied as a marker of lipid peroxidation. Glutathione (GSH), uric acid
and ceruloplasmin were estimated to study the antioxidant potential of ISPs. Significantly higher levels of MDA were found
in both the groups of ISPs and the increase in MDA was more in ISPs without diabetes. GSH levels were decreased significantly
in both the groups of ISPs and maximum decline was found in ISPs with diabetes. Uric acid levels were significantly increased
in both the groups of ISPs. Ceruloplasmin levels were increased significantly in ISPs without diabetes, whereas its levels
were slightly decreased in ISPs with diabetes. A negative correlation was found between MDA and the antioxidants GSH, uric
acid and ceruloplasmin in ISPs with diabetes. This study suggests that there is an association between ischemic stroke and
increased oxidative stress and the antioxidant potential is impaired in both the groups of ISPs with and without diabetes. 相似文献

Advanced age is associated with an accumulation of free radical damage, which leads to physiological and clinical modifications.
Age related changes resulting from free radical reactions include increasing levels of lipid peroxides, alterations in enzyme
activities and greater osmotic fragility. The present study was conducted to estimate the level of lipid peroxidation product-Malondialdehyde
and antioxidants Catalase and Glutathione in elderly people. An increase in lipid peroxidation and decrease in antioxidants
was observed in normal elderly people. Highly significant increase in MDA and decrease in antioxidants was observed in elderly
people when complicated with diabetes and hypertension. Supplementation of antioxidants may prevent further oxidative injury
in elderly people. 相似文献

Several chemicals which induce cytotoxicity are broadly classified into three types and they are organophosphate, organochlorine
and carbomate compounds. Perchloroethylene has been clearly identified as a carcinogen in experimental animals and it’s a
very common carcinogen used for dry clean purpose. Hence, in the present study, blood samples from dry cleaners were taken,
Superoxide dismutase, Catalase and Glutathione peroxidase activity was estimated in blood samples of dry cleaners. There was
a significant increase in the activity of Catalase, Glutathione Peroxidase, Superoxide Dismutase in dry cleaners of chronically
exposed to perchloroethylene as compared to controls. The increased activities of antioxidant enzymes may be a compensatory
regulation in response to increased oxidative stress induced by perchloroethylene. 相似文献

Chronic myeloid leukemia is a myeloproliferative disorder with a unique rearrangement, the Philadelphia chromosome. Oxidative
stress, a pervasive condition of an increased number of reactive oxygen species, is now recognized to be prominent feature
of various diseases and their progression. Thus antioxidants, which control the oxidative stress state, represent a major
line of defense regulating overall true state of health. The relationship between antioxidants status and levels of well-known
markers of oxidative stress that are measured as lipid peroxides and oxidized proteins reflect better health indices and postures.
The aim of this study was to evaluate the role of oxidative stress in pathophysiology of Chronic myeloid leukemia by measuring
the circulating plasma lipid peroxide levels in terms of malonyldialdehyde, total lipid hydroperoxide and oxidized proteins
as protein carbonyl whereas antioxidant status were estimated in terms of reduced glutathione and total thiol in plasma of
Chronic myeloid leukemia patients. The present study included 47 Chronic myeloid leukemia patients and 20 age-and sex-matched
healthy subjects. Out of 47 Chronic myeloid leukemia patients, 31 were in chronic phase (CML-CP) and 16 in accelerated phase
(CML-AP). The median age of Chronic myeloid leukemia patients was 33 years and that of controls was 32 years. Oxidative stress
and antioxidant status in plasma were evaluated by spectrophotometric procedures. There was a significant increase (p<0.05)
in plasma malonyldialdehyde, total lipid hydroperoxide and protein carbonyl levels in Chronic myeloid leukemia patients as
compared to healthy subjects. Our results also showed that plasma malonyldialdehyde and protein carbonyl levels were markedly
elevated (p<0.05) in both chronic phase (CML-CP) and accelerated phase (CML-AP) as compared to healthy volunteers. Antioxidant
status was found to be significantly decreased (p<0.05) in Chronic myeloid leukemia patients and its phases as compared to
healthy participants. It could be concluded that oxidative stress may be associated with the pathophysiology of Chronic myeloid
leukemia. 相似文献

As antioxidants play a protective role in the pathophysiology of diabetes and cardiovascular diseases, understanding the physiological
status of antioxidant concentration among people at high risk for developing these conditions, such as Metabolic Syndrome,
is of interest. In present study out of 187 first degree non-diabetic relatives and 192 non-diabetic spouses, 33.1% and 19.7%
were found to have metabolic syndrome respectively. Subjects with metabolic syndrome (≥3 risk factors) had poor antioxidants
status as reflected by significantly low levels of vitamin A, C & E and significantly increased (p<0.01) oxidative stress
as compared to those without metabolic syndrome. At the same time serum insulin levels and insulin resistance were found to
be significantly high (p<0.001) in metabolic syndrome. A strong positive correlation (r=0.946; p<0.001) between oxidative
stress and insulin resistance was observed in metabolic syndrome. Low levels of antioxidants and increased oxidative stress
with insulin resistance in metabolic syndrome suggests that besides therapeutic life style changes (TLC) as suggested in ATP
III guidelines inclusion of antioxidant vitamins, fruits and vegetable could be beneficial to ward off the consequences of
metabolic syndrome. 相似文献

An imbalance in the systemic redox status leading to oxidative stress has been an important factor in development of senile
cataracts, which is reflected by an increase in serum TBARS and a decrease in plasma SOD activity. Zinc has been an important
cofactor required for structural stability of SOD. In the present study the role of serum zinc level and plasma SOD activity
was analyzed in senile cataract patients showing significant oxidative stress. Serum TBARS, plasma SOD and serum zinc level
was measured in thirty randomly selected senile cataract patients against properly matched controls. Although, the analysis
of means showed a significant increase in serum TBARS and decrease in plasma SOD and serum zinc level in cases, but plasma
SOD was found to be just significantly correlated (p=0.05) with the serum zinc only in the cases. The results of partial correlation
studies and multiple regression analysis, also, showed only a significant correlation and predictable dependence between serum
TBARS and plasma SOD, excluding any role of serum zinc level. The present study concludes that it is chiefly the plasma SOD
activity, but not the serum zinc level, that determines the proneness of the patients for development of senile cataract. 相似文献

Glutathione, the dominant intracellular thiol, plays an important protective role against oxidative stress. The accidental
findings of increased reduced glutathione level postprandially as compared to post absorptive level prompted the design of
present study. Reduced Glutathione levels were estimated in 50 healthy individuals in post absorptive and postprandial phase
by taking whole blood in ACD bulb. Mean postprandial reduced Glutathione (9.60±3.39 μmole/gm of Hb) is significantly increased
than mean postabsorptive level (5.53±0.88 μmole/gm of Hb; p<0.001). It also shows positive correlation (r=0.65) between these
two GSH levels. So present study suggests that post absorptive specimen collection is preferable over random or postprandial
as the former reflects the true basal level of reduced glutathione. 相似文献

Reactive oxygen species (ROS) formed in various metabolic reactions cause unlimited damage by attacking and oxidizing the macromolecules. An arsenal of antioxidant substances neutralizes these ROS at various sites of their metabolic cascade, and if disequilibrium exists between the pro and antioxidant system, oxidative stress persists. The present study was undertaken in schizophrenia, to highlight the response and role of some endogenous antioxidants viz. reduced glutathione (GSH), bilirubin, total proteins, albumin and uric acid in scavenging the ROS. The effect of severity of disease, age factor, and substance abuse was also studied. In all, 50 schizophrenics and 50 age and sex-matched controls were enrolled in the present study. Fasting blood samples were drawn for estimating malondialdehyde (MDA), GSH, bilirubin, total proteins, albumin and uric acid in both the groups. The results were statistically analyzed by Z-test and correlated using correlation coefficient (r). The study shows reduction in MDA levels and decline in the level of endogenous antioxidants, but within the normal range. Chronic schizophrenics were at a higher risk of oxidative stress and age and substance abuse seems to worsen the situation. 相似文献

Patients with type II Diabetes Mellitus (NIDDM) are more prone to Ischaemic Heart Disease (IHD). Although, oxygen free radicals
are known to contribute to the development of IHD, conflicting reports are available regarding the antioxidant status in patients
of NIDDM complicated with IHD. This study was undertaken to investigate the oxidative status in patients of NIDDM and to assess
their correlation with plasma glucose, glycosylated haemoglobin and duration of diabetes. The levels of malondialdehyde were
significantly increased where as levels of superoxide dismutase, Glutathione peroxidase and vitamin C were significantly decreased
in diabetics without complications and non-diabetics with IHD when compared with the controls. The levels of malondialdehyde
and Glutathione peroxidase were significantly increased where as levels of superoxide dismutase and vitamin C were significantly
decreased in diabetics with IHD when compared with diabetics without complications and non-diabetics with IHD. The implications
of the results are discussed. 相似文献

This study aimed to correlate the oxidative stress marker levels in saliva with the clinical stage based on mouth opening, fibrotic bands and histopathological grades of oral submucous fibrosis (OSF) patients. The study included patients clinically diagnosed with OSF (n = 63) and equal number of age and gender matched controls. Patients with OSF were defined by mouth opening stage, fibrotic bands and histopathological grades. Unstimulated saliva from both control and OSF patients were analysed for oxidative markers like lipid peroxides (LPO), non-enzymic antioxidants [reduced glutathione (GSH), vitamin A, vitamin E, vitamin C] and enzymatic antioxidants [glutathione peroxidase (GPx), superoxide dismutase (SOD)] and correlated with different stages and grades. Total salivary protein and LPO were significantly increased in OSF group with no significant change in the levels of GSH compared to controls. In OSF patients, a significant decrease in the levels of vitamins A, C and E was observed. The activities of salivary SOD and GPx were significantly decreased in OSF patients compared to controls. These changes significantly correlated with the increasing and differing grades of OSF that reflects increased oxidative stress with the progress of OSF. 相似文献

Hemodialysis represents a chronic stress status for its recipients. Many hypotheses state that this may be associated with
oxidative stress. Thus, there may be deficiency of antioxidants like erythrocytic superoxide dismutase, catalase, vitamin
E or increased generation of free radicals like superoxide anions. A study was carried out to investigate oxidant and antioxidant
status in chronic renal failure patients undergoing hemodialysis and effect of vitamin E supplementation on these two status.
Blood samples were collected from patients before and after hemodialysis and from controls. The samples were analyzed for
quantitation of MDA as index of lipid peroxide, nitric oxide, vitamin E, vitamin C and enzymatic antioxidants namely erythrocyte
SOD and catalase. As compared to controls, the levels of serum MDA were significantly increased and activities of erythrocyte
SOD and catalase, levels of serum nitric oxide, serum vitamin E and plasma vitamin C were significantly decreased both before
and after hemodialysis. The efficiency of vitamin E therapy in hemodialysis patients was assessed by re-evaluating oxidant
and antioxidant status of same patients after supplementation of vitamin E. Vitamin E supplementation caused decrease in serum
MDA and increase in levels of serum nitric oxide, vitamin E, vitamin C and activities of erythrocytic SOD and catalase. Our
results suggest the presence of oxidative stress and the possible preventive role of vitamin E therapy in hemodialysis patients. 相似文献
