Role of Superoxide Anion Radicals
The discovery that macrophages metabolize ethanol to acetate in vitro may be of importance in understanding the pathogenesis of ethanol-induced tissue damage (1) . When expressed per unit wet weight, the rate of metabolism ofethanol by these cells is comparable to that by hepatocytes (2) . Studies of human and murine macrophages derived from various tissues have revealed that ethanol oxidation ...
متن کاملRole of superoxide anion radicals in ethanol metabolism by blood monocyte-derived human macrophages
The effects of a number of additives on the rate of conversion of ethanol (1 mg/ml; 21.7 mM) to acetate by monolayers of blood monocyte-derived human macrophages were investigated. The additives studied were superoxide dismutase (SOD; 1,500 U/ml), catalase (1,500 U/ml), tetrahydrofurane (20 mM), and PMA (20 nM), either singly or in various combinations. SOD, catalase, SOD plus catalase, tetrahy...
متن کاملOxidative DNA damage induced by hair dye components ortho-phenylenediamines and the enhancement by superoxide dismutase.
There is an association between occupational exposure to hair dyes and incidence of cancers. Permanent oxidant hair dyes are consisted of many chemical components including ortho-phenylenediamines. To clarify the mechanism of carcinogenesis by hair dyes, we examined DNA damage induced by mutagenic ortho-phenylenediamine (o-PD) and its derivatives, 4-chloro-ortho-phenylenediamine (Cl-PD) and 4-n...
متن کاملDNA Damage by Histone Radicals in Nucleosome Core Particles
Although DNA binding proteins shield the genetic material from diffusible reactive oxygen species by reacting with them, the resulting protein (peroxyl) radicals can oxidize the bound DNA. To explore this possible DNA damage by protein radicals, histone H4 proteins containing an azoalkane radical precursor at defined sites were prepared. Photolysis of a nucleosome core particle containing the m...
متن کاملAssessment of DNA damage induced by butachlor on Cyprinuscarpio(L. 1758) using Single Cell Gel Electrophoresis
Butachlor (N-(butoxymethyl)-2-chloro-N-2, 6-diethylacetanillide) is widely used chloroacetanilide herbicide in Asian region, especially in the north of Iran. Several studies have been reported on toxicity of butachlor, but little information is accessible on DNA damaging potential. Thus, the present study was undertaken to investigate of DNA damage by butachlor in Cyprinuscarpio(Pisces: Cyprini...
