Evaluation of lecithinized human recombinant super oxide dismutase as cardioprotectant in anthracycline-treated breast cancer patients.
AIM Anthracycline-induced cardiotoxicity is (partly) mediated by free radical overload. A randomized study was performed in breast cancer patients to investigate whether free radical scavenger super oxide dismutase (SOD) protects against anthracycline-induced cardiotoxicity as measured by changes in echo, electrocardiography and an array of biomarkers. METHOD AND RESULTS Eighty female, chemot...
متن کاملThe Effect of N-Acetylcysteine Administration to Prevent Anthracycline-Induced Cardiotoxicity in Breast Cancer Patients
Introduction: Anthracyclines are one of the classes of chemotherapy drugs that are widely used to treat many types of cancers including breast cancer. Taking this class of medications has a significant relationship with cardiac dysfunction. N-acetylcysteine has antioxidant properties and may be effective in preventing cardiac dysfunctions. In this study, we investigated the effect of N-acetylc...
متن کامل[Development of lecithinized superoxide dismutase as a drug for IPF].
Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) are thought to involve lung injury induced by reactive oxygen species (ROS), in particular superoxide anion. The enzyme, superoxide dismutase (SOD) catalyses the dismutation of superoxide anion to hydrogen peroxide. Lecithinized SOD (PC-SOD) has overcome a number of previous clinical limitations of SOD, includi...
