BCL-2: pro-or anti-oxidant?
Bcl-2 is recognized as an oncoprotein via its ability to impede death signaling by sequestrating pro-apoptotic proteins such as Bax and Bak as well as preserving mitochondrial outer membrane integrity. Recently, a growing body of evidence has evaluated the role of Bcl-2 in intracellular redox regulation and its downstream effects on life and death decisions in cancer cells. On the backdrop of t...
متن کاملAntioxidant and Pro-oxidant Effects of Aminoguanidine on HepG-2 Hepatocellular Carcinoma Cell Line
Background and purpose: Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is one of the most fatal cancers, so, proposing new anticancer agents is highly valuable. Production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) is increased in majority of cancers. Increase in ROS leads to cell damage and death. Aminoguanidine (AG) (pimagedine) is one of the compounds that can produce ROS at high concentrations. The present study was...
متن کاملPro oxidant and antioxidant status in patients with coronary artery disease proven angiographic ally
Introduction: Coronary artery disease (CAD) is the major cause of death in both industrial and developing countries. Evidences suggest that increase in free radical generation and/or attenuated antioxidant defenses may be involved in the pathogenesis of CAD. The aim of this investigation was to evaluate the plasma measures of oxidative stress in patients with coronary artery disease documente...

15 صفحه اولRole of Vitamins C and E in Regulating Antioxidant and Pro-Oxidant Markers in Preeclampsia
WE COMPARED THREE GROUPS OF PREGNANT WOMEN: placebo with normotensive women, group A which included preeclamptics, and group B which comprised preeclamptics who were supplemented their diets with vitamins C and E. MDA increased from 6.22 +/- 2.8 (placebo) to 8.48 +/- 1.2 (A) and 8.02 +/- 1.8 nmol/gHb (B). NO concentrations were enhanced from 19.3 +/- 4.2 (P) to 23.8 +/- 6.4 (A) and 24.1 +/- 5.4...
