This study confirms the fact that in different respiratory disorders, the status of plasma oxidants and antioxidants shifts
from normal. The status of oxidants in plasma as represented by malondialdehyde (MDA) levels increased significantly in the
conditions of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), emphysema, bronchiectasis and bronchial asthma. The two vitamin
antioxidants vitamin C and vitamin E showed decreased levels than in controls. In patients with COPD the endogenous antioxidant
viz. reduced glutathione (GSH) estimated from whole blood was comparable to that of control group, whereas in patients with
emphysema, bronchiectasis and bronchial asthma, GSH concentration was increased to that of control group. The activity of
enzyme superoxide dismutase (SOD) was significantly decreased in all study groups. Pulmonary function tests were found to
have no correlation with MDA and antioxidants 相似文献

The changes in the erythrocyte lipid peroxidation products (MDA), levels of glutathione (GSH), ascorbic acid and plasma vitamin
E (non enzymatic antioxidant parameters) and activities of antioxidant enzymes superoxide dismutase (SOD), glutathione peroxidase
(GPX), catalase in erythrocytes and plasma glutathione - S - transferase (GST) activity were estimated in patients with rheumatoid
arthritis. This work was undertaken to assess oxidative stress and anti oxidant status in patients with rheumatoid arthritis.
It was observed that there was a significant increase in erythrocyte MDA levels, activities of SOD, GPX, plasma GST and a significant decrease in erythrocyte GSH, ascorbic acid, plasma vitamin E levels and catalse activity in
patients with rheumatoid arthritis when compared to controls. The results of our study suggests higher oxygen free radical
production, evidenced by increased MDA and decreased GSH, ascorbic acid, vitamin E and Catalase activity, support to the oxidative
stress in rheumatoid arthritis. The increased activities of antioxidant enzymes may be a compensatory regulation in response
to increased oxidative stress. 相似文献

Serum Adenosine deaminase (ADA) activity in normal healthy control subjects increases upto 30 years, remains steady between
31–60 years of age and shows a steep increase in the age group of 61–70 years. This was compared with serum aspartate transaminase
(AST) and alanine transaminase (ALT) activity which also showed a gradual increase upto 40 years of age and decreased thereafter.
The activities of serum ADA, AST and ALT increased in patients with hepatitis of all age groups compared to their respective
controls. The degree of increase in the activities of the above enzymes in hepatitis, decreased with age. The present study
also shows that while studying serum ADA activity in hepatitis for diagnostic purposes, the value obtained in a particular
age group should be compared with normal range of values for the respective age group only. 相似文献

In this communication, we show the modulatory potential of papaverine, an opium alkaloid and a well known vasodilator agent
on the ethanol-induced hepatic oxidative stress in male Wistar rats. Ethanol treatment (50% v/v) enhanced lipid peroxidation
significantly accompanied by a decline in the activities of glutathione peroxidase (G-Px), glutathione reductase (GR) and
depletion in levels of hepatic glutathione (GSH). Ethanol administration increased hepatic glutathione-s-transferases (GST).
Enhanced lipid peroxidation induced by ethanol was significantly reduced when papverine was coadministered (P<0.05). In addition,
the depleted levels of glutathione and inhibited activities of G-Px and GR recovered significantly (P<0.05) levelling off
to control values on co-exposure. Papaverine (200 mg/kg bw) effectively antagonised the ethanol-induced lipid peroxidation
and impaired glutathione levels and glutathione dependent enzyme systems. Our results suggest that papaverine is an effective
chemopreventive agent in the liver and may suppress the ethanol-induced hepatotoxicity. 相似文献

Reactive oxygen species and other free radicals are known to be the mediators of phenotypic and genotypic changes that lead
from mutation to neoplasia. There are some primary antioxidants such as glutathione peroxidase (GPx), glutathione S-transferases
(GSTs) and reduced glutathione, which protect against callular and molecular damage caused by the reactive oxygen metabolites
(ROMs). The present study was conducted to determine the level of malondialdehyde (MDA), as an index of lipid peroxidation,
along with the GPx, GSTs activities and level of reduced glutathione in 45 prostate cancer (PC) patients, 55 benign prostate
hyperplasia (BPH) patients as compared to the controls. Significant higher levels of MDA and GSTs activities in the serum,
(P<0.005) and significant lower levels of reduced GSH concentration and GPx activity in blood haemolysates (P<0.05) of PC and BPH patients were observed as compared to the controls. The relatively higher GSTs activity and low level
of reduced GSH may be due to the response of increased reactive oxygen metabolites production in the blood. The higher MDA
and lower GPx activities may be inadequate to detoxify high levels of H2O2 into H2O leading to the formation of the*OH radical followed by MDA. This result hypothesizes that oxidant-antioxidant imbalance may be one of the major factor responsible
for the development of prostate cancer and benign prostate hyperplasia. 相似文献

Proteins and glutathione (GSH) levels were estimated in the experimental groups. Levels of both proteins and glutathione in
the control and the treated groups were found to be significantly decreased compared to the normal group. The results show
that supplementation of riboflavin has beneficial effect by alleviating the oxidant injuries to GSH and proteins, which are
involved in the maintenance of transparency and protection of thiol groups of the lens. Thus, riboflavin has an active role
in the lens metabolism and has a potential to improve the metabolic activity of the cataractous lenses. 相似文献

Blood glutathione was estimated in fifty patients of head and neck cancer in the age group of 18–76 years and the results
were compared with a group of normal healthy controls. Mean blood glutathione level was found to be significantly lowered
in patients than the controls. Irrespective of the site, TNM classification, histopathology, and character of lesion, fall
in blood glutathione was nearly same in all the patients. The mean level was significantly increased after radiotherapy when
compared with the levels before radiotherapy. The decreased levels of GSH in-patients with head and neck cancer, observed
in the present study, may be due to its increased utilization by the cells. The results suggest that patients with head and
neck cancer have increased oxidative stress. 相似文献

Oxidants (NADPH oxidase and myeloperoxidase) and antioxidants (GSH,GSH peroxidase, SOD and glucose 6 phosphate dehydrogenase,
that provides NADPH for antioxidants) were assayed in the neutrophils from oral cancer patients, in three stages viz, baseline
samples,15 days after radiation and 30 days following radiation. These samples were obtained from 2 groups of patients. Group
A that received radiation alone and Group B that received radiation and ocimum flavonoids,a radioprotector. The results showed
a significant fall in the SOD levels in the second follow up of group B.Glucose 6 phosphate dehydrogenase showed significant
increase only in the first follow up of patients who received Ocimum flavonoids. Except for these findings all other parameters
remained statistically nonsignificant. 相似文献

Reactive oxygen species (ROS) cause damage to the DNA producing mutations and formation of tumours such as carcinoma of breast. Tumour cells are known to produce ROS at a greater pace than the non-transformed cells. The increased production of reactive oxygen species causes oxidative stress leading to cell proliferation and hence increased inflammatory conditions. The present study was aimed to investigate the role of oxidative stress in the pathogenesis of breast cancer. Females suffering from breast cancer had significantly decreased Superoxide dismutase (SOD) and reduced glutathione (GSH) levels in comparison to normal females. The compromised antioxidant defence system produces the oxidative stress which in turn creates the inflammatory response shown by concomitant increased adenosine deaminase (ADA) activity in female patients. ADA diminishes the protective molecule adenosine. There were significant variations (p < 0.01) in ADA activity with different clinical stages (stage 1–4) of breast cancer suggesting thereby that estimation of ADA activity can be used as a diagnostic tool to detect the stage of cancer along with cytological studies. Mastectomy was performed and post-operatively serum SOD and ADA activity and plasma GSH levels were estimated. There was a statistically significant increase in activity of SOD and levels of GSH while serum ADA activity decreased significantly, suggesting thereby that oxidative stress is responsible for increased cell proliferation and hence the inflammatory conditions in CA breast that got ameliorated post-operatively. 相似文献

Anabasis articulata (Forssk) Moq. (Chenopodiaceae) is an herb, grows in Egypt, and used in folk medicine to treat diabetes, fever, and kidney infections. The protective and therapeutic effects of the ethanol extract of A. articulata aerial parts were evaluated against dimethylnitrosamine (DMN)-induced liver fibrosis, compared with the standard drug, silymarin. Hepatic hydroxyproline content, serum transforming growth factor-β1 (TGF-β1), interleukin 10 (IL-10) and fructosamine were measured as liver fibrosis markers. Hepatic malondialdehyde (MDA), nitric oxide (NO), catalase (CAT), glutathione reductase (GR) and glutathione content (GSH) were measured as oxidant/antioxidant markers. Parallel histopathological investigations were also performed. Protective and therapeutic administration of A. articulata (100 mg/kg daily for 4 weeks), markedly prevented DMN-induced loss in body and liver weights. The extract significantly inhibited the elevation of hepatic hydroxyproline, NO and MDA (P < 0.05), as well as serum fructosamine, and TGF-β1 (P < 0.05) induced by DMN while it restored IL-10 to normal level in both protective and therapeutic groups. Furthermore, A. articulata prevented the depletion in CAT, GR, and GSH levels (P ≤ 0.05). In addition, oral administration of A. articulata extract and silymarin to both protective and therapeutic groups reduced the increase in liver function enzyme activities; alanine and aspartate amintransferases, gamma-glutamyl transferase in addition to alkaline phosphatase, and caused significant increase in serum albumin concentration as compared to DMN group. These data corresponded closely with those obtained for the drug silymarin. Histopathological studies confirmed the biochemical data and revealed remarkable improvement in liver architecture. Thus, it could be concluded that, A. articulata extract exhibited in vivo hepatoprotective and therapeutic effects against DMN-induced liver injury and may act as a useful agent in controlling the progression of hepatic fibrosis through reduction of oxidative stress and improving liver function. 相似文献

The effect of the oral administration ofVitex negundo leaf extract on the levels of enzymic and non-enzymic antioxidants were studied in the adjuvant induced arthritic (AIA) rats
The levels of antioxidant enzymes such as SOD, CAT, GPx, G6PD, GSH and Vit-C were estimated in various groups of the experimental
rats. It was observed that the antioxidant enzyme levels in the AIA were significantly low when compared to normal rats. A
significant decrease in enzymic antioxidant—SOD, CAT, GPx, G6PD and non-enzymic antioxidant—GSH, Vit-C were observed in the
liver of AIA rats compared to the normal rats. These results suggest that the leaf extract ofVitex negundo possesses antioxidant activity. 相似文献

The circadian periodicity of plasma lipid peroxide levels and activities of superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase (CAT) and
glutathione peroxidase (GPx) were studied in 50 clinically, bacteriologically and radiologically proven fresh cases of pulmonary
tuberculosis (age: 21–45 years) and 60 age-matched healthy volunteers with diurnal activity from 06∶00 to about 22∶00 and
nocturnal rest. A marked circadian variation in plasma lipid peroxide level was recorded in healthy subjects and pulmonary
tuberculosis patients with significant amplitude and acrophase around 16∶21 and 17∶12 respectively. The acrophase tended to
be delayed in tuberculosis patients. Furthermore, a statistically significant circadian rhythm was found in SOD, CAT and GPx
activities in normal volunteers and pulmonary tuberculopsis patients. SOD and CAT enzyme activity was noted to be maximum
at 06∶00 and minimum at 00∶00 in tuberculosis patients. The circadian acrophase for GPx activity was recorded at 16∶15 in
normals and around 22∶45 in patients. Moreover, the activity was found to be decreased at all sampling hours during 24-hours
sleep-awake period in patients in comparison to healthy counterparts. The MESOR and circadian amplitude also decreased markedly.
The decreased activity of measured antioxidant enzymes in pulmonary tuberculosis patients could probably be associated with
oxidative stress and/or decreased anti-oxidant defensive mechanism in such 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 present study was conducted to evaluate some of the components of antioxidant defense system and oxidative damage in 20
male patients of alcoholic liver disease (ALD). The results were compared with 20 healthy male smokers and 20 healthy male
non-smokers volunteers. Patients were subjected to detailed clinical examination and laboratory investigations. Blood samples
were collected for estimating reduced glutathione (GSH), total thiols (T-SH) malondialdehyde (MDA), transaminases (AST, ALT),
glutathione-S-transferease (GST) and gammaglutamyl transferase (GGT). Serum aspartate amino transferase (AST)/alanine amino
transferase (ALT) ratio was significantly (p<0.01) reduced in ALD patients as compared to the controls. However, the core
of utility of MDA and GST was found to be significantly (p<0.01) increased in ALD patients compared to controls. There was
a significant negative correlation of MDA with both GSH and TSH. Plasma GGT levels were significantly (p<0.01) increased in
alcoholics and the enzyme showed a significant positive correlation with MDA. These results give enough evidence of increased
oxidative stress and compromised antioxidant defense system in patients with ALD. 相似文献

Reactive oxygen species (ROS) are believed to be responsible for pathogenesis of various diseases affecting tissues and systems.
ROS generated by mitochondrial electron transport chain as well as extra-mitochondrially are eliminated by the respective
defense mechanisms. We checked the activity of ROS generating system such as xanthine oxidase and also the parameter of ROS
defense mechanism e.g. superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase, glutathione peroxidase (GPox), reduced glutathione content (GSH)
and glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PDH) in mitochondrial and post-mitochondrial fractions from various tissues (liver,
kidney, brain and heart) of normal rats. Extent of lipid peroxidation (LPO) which is immediate consequence of ROS generation
was also examined. Our results shows that significant tissue-specific differences exist in mitochondrial and cytosolic ROS
generating systems and ROS defense mechanisms. 相似文献

Ethanol-induced liver injury may be linked, at least partly, to an oxidative stress resulting from increased free radical
production and/or decreased antioxidant defence. Distinguishing alcoholic and non-alcoholic liver disease has important implications.
This study looked at the possible changes between alcoholic and non-alcoholic liver diseases by examining the presence of
oxidative damage, as monitored by several parameters relating to oxidative stress. Lipid peroxides concentration, superoxide
dismutase activity and glutathione S-transferase activity increased, where as glutathione content, glutathione peroxidase
activity and glutathione reductase activity decreased among the tested subjects in comparison to normal healthy group. Determination
of these parameters may be valuable in the evaluation of liver disease. However, oxidative stress related enzymes and non-enzymes
can not be utilized as a marker for alcoholic liver diseases, as these parameters responded in the same way after liver is
damaged irrespective of their cause. Their level may help in determining the degree of liver damage. Degree of oxidative injury
was similar in patients with non-alcoholic liver disease and in moderate drinkers; while significantly higher in heavy drinkers.
The differences between the groups might be based on the type of liver pathological condition rather than its etiology (i.e.
alcohol and non alcohol related causes). 相似文献

Effects of thyroidectomy (Tx) and subsequent treatment with 3,5,3’-triiodothyronine (T3), and combined treatment (TR) with T3 + thyroxine (T4) on substrate kinetics properties of cytochrome oxidase of rat liver mitochondria were examined. Tx resulted in lowering of cytochromes content with decrease in the enzyme activity, and Km and Vmax. T3 and TR regimens restored the cytochromes contents and the Vmax values to normal. In control, T3 and TR groups the enzyme activity resolved in two kinetic components; in Tx group three kinetic components were evident. The Km values for all components decreased significantly in the experimental groups with concomitant increase in catalytic efficiency,
Kcat/Km. Significant alterations in the contents of total phospholipid and of cholesterol were noted while the changes in the phospholipids
composition were only of restricted nature. Regression analysis revealed that total phospholipid, cholesterol and phosphatidylcholine,
phosphatidylethanolamine play significant role in fine tuning the enzyme activity. 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

The response of liver lipid peroxidative and antioxidant defense system of protein undernourished rats to liver regeneration
induced by partial hepatectomy was examined in rats. Animals were divided into four groups; A,B,C and D of four animals each.
Animals in group A were maintained on 16% casein diet while those in groups B, C and D were placed on low-protein diet (5%
casein) for fourteen weeks and fed ad libitum. 72 hours before sacrifice, partial hepatectomy was carried out on animals in
group D while animals in group C were sham-operated. The results show that protein undernutrition induced an increase in lipid
peroxidation but reduced catalase activity, glutathione level and superoxide dismutase activity when compared with well-nourished
rats. Liver regeneration however, resulted in significant increases in lipid peroxidation and catalase activity but significant
reductions in glutathione level and superoxide dismutase activity in protein undernutrition rats when compared with their
sham-operated counterparts. These results suggest that liver regeneration induced by partial hepatectomy exacerbates lipid
peroxidation in protein undernutrition rats and that Catalase plays a major role in the mopping up of reactive oxygen species
generated following liver regeneration in partially hepatectomised protein undernutrition rats. 相似文献

Studies were carried out to examine and compare the effects of alloxan-diabetes on reactive oxygen species (ROS) related parameters
in the heart from male and female rats. Effects of insulin treatment were also evaluated. The diabetic state severely compromised
the ROS defense mechanism in the cardiac tissue and the effects were more pronounced in the female than in the male rats.
There was several fold increase in the xanthine oxidase (XO) activity in general and the magnitude of increase was higher
in the females; insulin treatment resulted in further increase in the XO activity. The glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PDH)
and catalase activities decreased and the reduced glutathione (GSH) content in mitochondria was completely depleted in diabetic
state with significant decrease in the GSH levels in the post-mitochondrial fraction; the effect was more pronounced in the
females. The superoxide dismutase (SOD) and glutathione peroxidase (GPox) activities increased in the diabetic state to a
greater extent in male rats. Insulin treatment had restorative action only on some parameters. In conclusion, our results
suggest that diabetic state may further compromise the weak ROS defense systems in the heart thus initiating a lesion at the
level of mitochondria which ultimately leads to cardiomyopathy and the effects are especially more pronounced in the females.
Our results also pointed out that insulin treatment was ineffective in restoring ROS related parameters. 相似文献
