Enhancement of erythrocyte superoxide dismutase activity: effects on cellular oxidant defense.
To delineate further the role of superoxide dismutase (SOD) in red blood cell (RBC) oxidant defense, normal human erythrocytes were osmotically lysed and resealed in the presence of varying concentrations of exogenous SOD. This resulted in a dose-dependent increase in SOD activity in the resealed erythrocytes while maintaining nearly normal RBC hemoglobin concentration (less than 10% decrease f...
متن کاملHuman Erythrocyte Superoxide Dismutase Encapsulated in Positively Charged Liposomes
Superoxide dismutase (SOD) is an important antioxidant that protects many types of cells from the free radical damage. One of the possible ways for the use of SOD is its incorporation in liposomes. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of cationic phospholipids on the entrapment of human erythrocyte superoxide dismutase (Cu/Zn SOD) in liposomes. Also, in the present study, w...
متن کاملLevels of erythrocyte superoxide dismutase activity in Japanese people.
Levels of erythrocyte superoxide dismutase (SOD) activitiy in a sample of Japanese people were determined. Blood samples were taken from new-born infants, preschool children, young and old people who had no apparent diseases and also from three anemic patients. Erythrocyte SOD activities in different age groups had a nearly normal distribution. Females had slightly lower activities than males, ...
متن کاملGlycation of erythrocyte superoxide dismutase reduces its activity.
purified. Purified SOD was incubated with 1 M glucose at 37 •Ž for 14d under sterile conditions. Nonezymatic addition of glucose to SOD molecules increased linearly until 7 d, and then increased only slightly. The enzyme activity decreased to 88% after 7d and 60% after 14d. The glycated amino acid residue is not the N-terminal a-amino group but the s-amino group of lysine. It seems that lysine ...
متن کاملFurther characterization of human erythrocyte superoxide dismutase.
1. A simplified procedure for the preparation of highly purified human superoxide dismutase from erythrocytes was developed which avoided extremes of pH and ionic strength and the use of organic solvents; the properties of human and bovine proteins, prepared by the method, were compared. 2. Using the two dimensional electrophoretic procedure of O'Farrell, the human superoxide dismutase was foun...
