Oxidant-antioxidant balance in acute lung injury.
ARDS is a disease process that is characterized by diffuse inflammation in the lung parenchyma. The involvement of inflammatory mediators in ARDS has been the subject of intense investigation, and oxidant-mediated tissue injury is likely to be important in the pathogenesis of ARDS. In response to various inflammatory stimuli, lung endothelial cells, alveolar cells, and airway epithelial cells, ...
متن کاملNeuroglobin expression and oxidant/antioxidant balance after graded traumatic brain injury in the rat.
Neuroglobin is a neuron-specific hexacoordinated globin capable of binding various ligands, including O2, NO, and CO, the biological function of which is still uncertain. Various studies seem to indicate that neuroglobin is a neuroprotective agent when overexpressed, acting as a potent inhibitor of oxidative and nitrosative stress. In this study, we evaluated the pathophysiological response of ...
متن کاملOxidant/antioxidant balance in patients with thyroid cancer.
PURPOSE To compare the antioxidant enzyme activities of superoxide dismutase (SOD), glutathione peroxidase (GSH-Px) and the levels of lipid peroxidation product malondialdehyde (MDA) in blood samples of thyroid cancer patients compared to healthy controls. METHODS 43 control subjects (mean age 44+/-13 years) and 43 patients (43+/-13 years) presented with multinodular goiter whose fine needle ...
متن کاملOxidant-antioxidant balance in alveolar macrophages from newborn rats.
An oxidant-antioxidant imbalance in neonatal alveolar macrophages (AMs) may contribute to the increased susceptibility to lung injury described in the neonatal period. We therefore evaluated oxygen radical production by rat AMs at various postnatal ages, and measured in parallel cellular antioxidant enzyme activities. AMs were obtained by bronchoalveolar lavage from rats aged < 24 h, 21 days an...
