Effects of fraxetin on glutathione redox status.
We have evaluated the effects of an oral treatment of mice with fraxetin (25 mg/kg for 30 days) on the glutathione system (GSH, GSSG, and GSSG/GSH ratio as stress index), glutathione reductase (GR) and glutathione peroxidase (GPx) in liver supernatants from male C57BL/6J mice (18-month old). A significant antioxidant effect in vivo was found under this treatment by a decrease in the GSSG/GSH ra...
متن کاملRed blood cell and whole blood glutathione redox status in endurance-trained men following a ski marathon.
The aim of the present study was to evaluate the changes in glutathione redox ratio (GSSG·GSH(-1)) in red blood cells (RBCs) and whole blood in well-trained men following a ski marathon. 16 male subjects (27.0 ± 4.7 yrs, 1.81 ± 0.06 m, 77.6 ± 9.6 kg, VO2max 66.2 ± 5.7 ml·kg(-1)·min(-1)) were examined before the competition (pre- COMP), after the competition (post-COMP) and during an 18-hour rec...
متن کاملChronic alcoholism alters systemic and pulmonary glutathione redox status.
RATIONALE Previous studies have linked the development and severity of acute respiratory distress syndrome with a history of alcohol abuse. In clinical studies, this association has been centered on depletion of pulmonary glutathione and subsequent chronic oxidant stress. OBJECTIVES The impact on redox potential of the plasma or pulmonary pools, however, has never been reported. METHODS Pla...
متن کاملProgesterone increases blood pressure in spontaneous gestational hypertension in rats.
BACKGROUND Gestational hypertensive disorders are a leading cause of maternal mortality in the US, accounting for up to 10% of these deaths. During pregnancy, a new rat model (SHHF rat) has been shown to develop spontaneous hypertension with increases of more than 40 mm Hg systolic blood pressure (BP), which resolves after delivery, and which lead us to ask whether the hypertension may be trigg...
