Correlation between Superoxide Dismutase Level and Disease Activity of Vitiligo

Superoxide dismutase Superoxide dismutase

Relationship between superoxide dismutase 1 and patients with Alzheimer’s disease

Aims: The purpose of this study was to investigate the association between superoxide dismutase 1 (SOD1) rs2070424, rs4998557 polymorphisms and the susceptibility of Alzheimer’s Disease (AD) in Chinese Han population. Methods: Polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) was used to determine genotypes of SOD1 polymorphisms in 98 patients with AD and 105 healthy...

Superoxide dismutase activity in leukocytes.

Superoxide dismutase activity has been identified in both human neutrophils and rabbit alveolar macrophages by two distinct assay procedures. The enzyme is insensitive to both cyanide and azide and is present in the cytosol of the cell. The identification of this enzyme in phagocytic cells is compatible with the theory that superoxide anion might be involved in the bactericidal activity of the ...

The Effect of Normobaric Hyperoxia on Superoxide Dismutase Activity and Neurologic Deficits in Huntington Animal Model

Introduction: resent studies have been shown that normobaric hyperoxia (HO) can induce excitotoxicity and stress oxidative tolerance (ETT) in variety of organs such as brain. In this study, we examined the intermittent dose of normobaric hyperoxia (HO) on neurologic deficit, and superoxide dismutase activity in brain tissue of Huntington animal model. Method: The rats were divided to three...

the plasma antioxidant activity of superoxide dismutase enzyme in osteoporosis

osteoporosis is a metabolic disease characterized by reduction in bone density and susceptibility to deformity and fracture. some studies show that osteoblasts can create inter-cellular free radicals that lead to cellular death. superoxide dismutase (sod) plays an essential role in cell defense against reactive oxygen metabolites. the purpose of this study was to measure the plasma sod activiti...
