Dl-α-tocopherol enhances the herbicide 1,1'-dimetyl-4,4'-bipyridium dichloride (paraquat, PQ) genotoxicity in cultured anuran leukocytes.
This cytogenetic and pharmacological study attempts to clarify genotoxicity-enhancement-effect of dl-α-tocopherol (one form of vitamin E) in combination with the herbicide 1,1'-dimetyl-4,4'-bipyridium dichloride (paraquat, PQ) on cultured anuran leukocytes using the superoxide dismutase-mimic Mn(III)tetrakis(1-methyl-4-pyridyl)porphyrin (Mn(III)TMpyP), the hydrogen peroxide-scavenger catalase a...
متن کاملDisruption of Vitamin E and Butylated Hydroxytoluene Antioxidant Function in Response to Paraquat-Induced Chromosomal Damage in Cultured Anuran Leukocytes
Researchers have reported that the phenolic antioxidants vitamin E and butylated hydroxyltoluene (BHT) effect on cultured cells and human low-density lipoprotein is disrupted by various synthetic chemical compounds and Cu2+ involved in reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation by redox reaction. In this paper, information involved in prooxidative action of vitamin E and BHT in cultured anuran le...
متن کاملParaquat poisoning: A case report and review of literature
Paraquat (1, r-dimethyl-4,4'-bipyridium dichloride), a brown syrupy liquid is an effective herbicide that has low chronic toxicity because of its rapid deactivation on contact with soil. A high dose of paraquat or severe poisoning has a poor prognosis. At present there is no specific antidote to paraquat poisoning, hence the need to focus on prevention and in case of exposure or ingestion, aggr...

CHEST 65: 4, APRIL, 1974 SUPPLEMENT 16TH ASPEN LUNG CONFERENCE 655 DISCUSSION Dr. Weibel: I have a comment with respect to the covering of dividing cells by type 1 cells. It would be nice to conceive of these cells hiding beneath the type 1 cell lining while they divide, but I don’t think you can really make this point. You will often find type 2 cells partially covered by flaps of type 1 cells...
متن کاملA Comparison of Natural (D-α-tocopherol) and Synthetic (DL-α-tocopherol Acetate) Vitamin E Supplementation on the Growth Performance, Meat Quality and Oxidative Status of Broilers.
The present study was conducted to compare the supplementation of natural (D-α-tocopherol) and synthetic (DL-α-tocopherol acetate) vitamin E on the growth performance, meat quality, muscular antioxidant capacity and genes expression related to oxidative status of broilers. A total of 144 1 day-old Arbor Acres broiler chicks were randomly allocated into 3 groups with 6 replicates of 8 birds each...
