Folate protects against oxidative modification of human LDL.

Elevated plasma total homocysteine is considered to be a graded risk factor for cardiovascular disease. Folate, through its homocysteine-lowering potential, may therefore be protective. Folate, however, may have protective effects independent of homocysteine-lowering. We have measured the effects of folate on Cu-catalysed oxidative damage to the unsaturated lipids in human LDL. Experiments were...

Atherogenesis, the oxidative LDL modification hypothesis revisited

The commonly-accepted “oxidized LDL hypothesis of atherogenesis” is based on a large number of indirect evidence that shows that oxidatively-modified LDL plays a role in atherogenesis. Yet, the exact role is not clear. Some researchers think that oxidatively modified biomolecules initiate atherogenesis; others believe that they “only” promote this multifactorial process. Regardless of the exact...

Human DNA polymerase iota protects cells against oxidative stress.

Human DNA polymerase iota (poliota) is a unique member of the Y-family of specialised polymerases that displays a 5'deoxyribose phosphate (dRP) lyase activity. Although poliota is well conserved in higher eukaryotes, its role in mammalian cells remains unclear. To investigate the biological importance of poliota in human cells, we generated fibroblasts stably downregulating poliota (MRC5-pol io...

Hydroxytyrosol Protects against Oxidative DNA Damage in Human Breast Cells

Over recent years, several studies have related olive oil ingestion to a low incidence of several diseases, including breast cancer. Hydroxytyrosol and tyrosol are two of the major phenols present in virgin olive oils. Despite the fact that they have been linked to cancer prevention, there is no evidence that clarifies their effect in human breast tumor and non-tumor cells. In the present work,...

Lipocalin2 Protects Human Embryonic Kidney Cells against Cisplatin–Induced Genotoxicity

Cisplatin is one of the most useful chemotherapeutics which performs its cytotoxic effectvia accumulation of platinum resulting in oxidative stress, and destruction of cell DNA. Thiscould probably cause secondary cancers in healthy tissues. Lipocalin2 (Lcn2) is a protein whichits expression is increased in oxidative stresses. Therefore, the present study was performedto evaluate the protective ...
