Oxidative stress and coronary plaque stability.
Increased production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in the vascular wall is a characteristic feature of disease states, including atherosclerosis, diabetes and hypertension. ROS, such as superoxide, reduce nitric oxide bioactivity by scavenging and cause oxidation of lipids and target proteins. In addition, recent work has revealed that ROS mediate a wide range of pathological processes in th...

متن کاملCoronary Artery Disease and Oxidative Stress
O2 arose on Earth in about 3.8 x 109 years ago due to the photosynthetic process in cyanobacteria hydrolyzed water. But it was only about 2.5 x 109 years ago that its levels rose to significant amounts. The increase in atmospheric concentrations of O2 led to a great selective event, the first great mass extinction, due to stress on organisms that did not adapt to the new conditions. It also hel...
متن کاملOxidative stress in coronary artery bypass surgery
OBJECTIVE The aim of this prospective study was to assess the dynamics of oxidative stress during coronary artery bypass surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass. METHODS Sixteen patients undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting were enrolled. Blood samples were collected from the systemic circulation during anesthesia induction (radial artery--A1), the systemic venous return (B1 and B2) four mi...
