Cooperative action of antioxidant defense systems in Drosophila
Molecular oxygen is key to aerobic life but is also converted into cytotoxic byproducts referred to as reactive oxygen species (ROS). Intracellular defense systems that protect cells from ROS-induced damage include glutathione reductase (GR), thioredoxin reductase (TrxR), superoxide dismutase (Sod), and catalase (Cat). Sod and Cat constitute an evolutionary conserved ROS defense system against ...
متن کاملPineal proteins upregulate specific antioxidant defense systems in the brain
The neuroendocrine functions of the pineal affect a wide variety of glandular and nervous system processes. Beside melatonin (MEL), the pineal gland secretes and expresses certain proteins essential for various physiological functions. It has been suggested that the pineal gland may also have an antioxidant role due to secretory product other than MEL. Therefore, the present study was designed ...
متن کاملEvaluation of the antioxidant defense status in psoriasis
Background: Psoriasis is a chronic inflammatory disease of theskin. The etiology of psoriasis is not known exactly. Recently, ithas been suggested that an imbalance in the oxidant- antioxidantstatus due to an increased reactive oxygen species production and/or deficient function of the antioxidant system may be involvedin the pathogenesis of psoriasis. The aim of this study was toevaluate the a...
متن کاملtoxic effects of cadmium on antioxidant defense systems and lipid peroxidation in acipenser persicus (borodin, 1897)
cadmium is considered as a common residue in water and sediments which could readily enter aquatic organisms. the aim of this study was to evaluate the time- and concentration-dependent changes in antioxidant enzymes (sod and cat) activities as well as concentration of mda as a bi- product of lipid peroxidation in the liver of persian sturgeon, acipenser persicus , following cdcl 2 exposure at ...
متن کاملCooperative Defense against Network Attacks
Distributed denial of service (DDoS) attacks on the Internet have become an immediate problem. As DDoS streams do not have common characteristics, currently available intrusion detection systems (IDS) can not detect them accurately. As a result, defend DDoS attacks based on current available IDS will dramatically affect legitimate traffic. In this paper, we propose a distributed approach to def...
