Oxygen radical scavengers selectively inhibit interleukin 8 production in human whole blood.
The hydroxyl radical (OH.) scavenger dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) was found to dose-dependently inhibit interleukin 8 (IL-8) production in LPS-stimulated human whole blood. At a concentration of 1% (vol/vol), DMSO blocked IL-8 release by approximately 90% in the presence of 1 microgram/ml LPS at a 24-h time point, but did not affect cell viability or reduce the production of tumor necrosis factor ...
متن کاملHydroxyl radical scavengers inhibit lymphocyte mitogenesis.
Agents that are known to be scavengers of hydroxyl radicals inhibit lymphocyte mitogenesis induced by phorbol myristate acetate (PMA) to a greater extent than they inhibit mitogenesis induced by concanavalin A or phytohemagglutinin. These agents include dimethyl sulfoxide, benzoate, thiourea, dimethylurea, tetramethylurea, L-tryptophan, mannitol, and several other alcohols. Their inhibitory eff...
متن کاملTherapeutic application of oxygen radical scavengers.
M uch of what is considered critical illness may involve oxygen radical pathophysiology.'' Data accumulated from both experimental and clinical investigations have implicated oxyradical injury in the pathogenesis of pulmonary oxygen toxicity, adult respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD), sepsis syndrome , and a variety of ischemia-reperfusion syndromes, including...
متن کاملDetermination of oxygen radical production in spondyloarthropathies by whole blood chemiluminescence.
Oxygen derived free radicals are considered to play an important part in the development of inflammation. A whole blood chemiluminescence assay was used to study N-formyl-methionyl-leucyl-phenylalanine induced oxygen radical production in subjects with ankylosing spondylitis or previous yersinia arthritis. In luminol enhanced chemiluminescence, the subjects with previous yersinia arthritis show...
متن کاملReduced intracellular oxygen radical production in whole blood leukocytes from COPD patients and asymptomatic smokers.
RATIONALE AND OBJECTIVES COPD is characterized by irreversible airflow obstruction. It has, however, become clear that COPD also is a systemic disease. In the present study, we sought to investigate its impact on different peripheral leukocyte subpopulations that are recognized as important effector cells in the lung tissue. METHODS We enrolled 20 patients with stable, moderate COPD (FEV1, 33...
