Cerulein pancreatitis: oxidative stress, inflammation, and apoptosis.
Cerulein pancreatitis is similar to human edematous pancreatitis, manifesting with dysregulation of digestive enzyme production and cytoplasmic vacuolization, the death of acinar cells, edema formation, and infiltration of inflammatory cells into the pancreas. Reactive oxygen species are involved in nuclear factor-kappaB activation, cytokine expression, apoptosis and pathogenesis of pancreatiti...
متن کاملOxidative stress is enhanced by hypothermia imposed on cerulein-induced pancreatitis in rats.
BACKGROUND Hypothermia is a frequent event in severe acute pancreatitis (AP) and its real effects on the normal pancreas have not been well demonstrated. Moreover, neither have its effects on the outcome of acute pancreatitis been fully investigated. One hypothesis is that oxidative stress may be implicated in lesions caused or treated by hypothermia. AIM OF THE STUDY To investigate the effec...
متن کاملInflammation, Oxidative Stress, and Obesity
Obesity is a chronic disease of multifactorial origin and can be defined as an increase in the accumulation of body fat. Adipose tissue is not only a triglyceride storage organ, but studies have shown the role of white adipose tissue as a producer of certain bioactive substances called adipokines. Among adipokines, we find some inflammatory functions, such as Interleukin-6 (IL-6); other adipoki...
متن کاملAtherosclerosis, Inflammation and Oxidative Stress
Atherosclerosis is a focal disease of the arterial wall that leads to cardiovascular disease (CVD), the biggest cause of morbidity and mortality in Western societies. CVD, a group of disorders of the heart and the vasculature, includes atherosclerosis, high blood pressure, coronary heart disease, congestive heart failure, stroke and congenital heart defects. The World Health Organization report...
متن کاملOxidative Stress, Inflammation
In the Sabra rat, oxidative stress (OS) and inflammation precede the development of hypertension. Inhibition of the phagocytic NADPH oxidase attenuates the rise in blood pressure. The present study was set to identify possible priming agents for this enzyme and to test the hypothesis that the phagocytic NADPH oxidase contributes to OS and inflammation. Sabra salt-sensitive and Sabra salt-resist...
