Melatonin Reduces Cataract Formation and Aldose Reductase Activity in Lenses of Streptozotocin-induced Diabetic Rat
Background: The relationship between the high activity of aldose reductase (AR) and diabetic cataract formation has been previously investigated. The purpose of the present study was to determine the preventing effect of melatonin on streptozotocin (STZ)-induced diabetic cataract in rats.Methods: 34 adult healthy male Sprague-Dawely rats were divided into four groups. Diabetic control and diabe...
متن کاملN-acetylcysteine amide protects against dexamethasone-induced cataract related changes in cultured rat lenses
Glucocorticoids (GCs) are one of the most widely used immunosuppressive and anti-inflammatory agents. However, their long term and systemic use is associated with adverse drug reactions including posterior subcapsular cataracts as one of its ocular complications. Balanced redox state is crucial for maintenance of lens transparency, and a high content of glutathione (GSH) in the lens is believed...
متن کاملCurcumin Protects against Ovariectomy-Induced Bone Changes in Rat Model
Osteoporosis is a metabolic disease affecting both men and women especially in postmenopausal women. Curcumin possesses many medicinal properties. In this study, thirty two female Sprague-Dawley rats were used to determine the potential effect of curcumin in prevention of bone loss following ovariectomy. The animals were divided into Sham group, ovariectomised control, ovariectomised treated wi...
متن کاملFormation of cyclic adducts of deoxyguanosine with the aldehydes trans-4-hydroxy-2-hexenal and trans-4-hydroxy-2-nonenal in vitro.
trans-4-Hydroxy-2-hexenal (t-4HH), a reactive metabolite isolated from the pyrrolizidine alkaloid senecionine, and trans-4-hydroxy-2-nonenal (t-4HN), a product of lipid peroxidation, reacted nonenzymatically with deoxyguanosine at pH 7.4 at 37 degrees C in vitro with each compound yielding two pairs of diastereomeric adducts. Adducts were isolated using reverse phase high-performance liquid chr...
