Pineal proteins upregulate specific antioxidant defense systems in the brain
The neuroendocrine functions of the pineal affect a wide variety of glandular and nervous system processes. Beside melatonin (MEL), the pineal gland secretes and expresses certain proteins essential for various physiological functions. It has been suggested that the pineal gland may also have an antioxidant role due to secretory product other than MEL. Therefore, the present study was designed ...
متن کاملIn vivo effects of CB1 receptor ligands on lipid peroxidation and antioxidant defense systems in the rat brain of healthy and ethanol-treated rats.
In vivo experiments were conducted to study the effects of N-(piperidin-l-yl)-5-(4-chlorophenyl)-1-(2,4-cochlo-rophenyl)-4-methyl-1H-pyrazole-3-carboxamide (SR141716A; a potent and selective CB(1)-receptor antagonist) and ara-chidonyl-2-chloroethylamide (ACEA; a selective CB(1)-receptor agonist) on spontaneous lipid peroxidation, glutathione (GSH) level and activities of antioxidant enzymes in ...
متن کاملEffects of puffer (Sphoeroides rubripes) supplementation on disruption of antioxidant defense systems in ethanol-treated rats.
We investigated the effects of puffer (Sphoeroides rubripes) supplementation on antioxidant metabolism in ethanol-treated rats. Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly assigned into 4 groups of 7 rats each and fed (1) an AIN-93G diet (NC), (2) 25% ethanol (E), (3) 25% ethanol and an AIN-93G diet containing 1% puffer flesh (E+F), or (4) 25% ethanol and an AIN-93G diet containing 1% puffer skin (E+S) f...
متن کاملEthanol potentiates doxorubicin-induced inhibition of cell survival in cultured Chinese hamster ovary cells.
Doxorubicin is an antineoplastic drug which undergoes oxidation-reduction cycling and produces toxicity to some cancer cell lines. Since oxidation-reduction cycling requires reducing equivalents and because ethanol metabolism via alcohol dehydrogenase (ADH) increases NADH, the effect of ethanol on doxorubicin toxicity was examined in cultured cells. Since some cells exhibit resistance to anthra...
متن کاملAntioxidant effects of aqueous fruit extract of Ziziphus jujuba on ethanol-induced oxidative stress in the rat testes
The aim of the present study was to evaluate the antioxidant effects of aqueous fruit extract of Ziziphusjujuba on ethanol-induced oxidative stress and to examine its protective effects on sperm motility and plasma membrane integrity of male Wistar rats. Adult male rats (n = 28) were divided into four equal groups: the first group served as untreated controls, the second group of rats was given...
