Inverse correlation between glutathione peroxidase activity in psoriatic cutaneous lesions and the severity of the disease
Background: Psoriasis is a chronic-relapsing inflammatory skin disorder, in whose pathogenesis oxidative stress is suggested to be involved. Among different enzymes that play a role in maintaining the cellular redox balance, we aimed to assess the alteration of glutathione peroxidase (GPX) activity in cutaneous lesions and its correlation with the disease severity, firstly, to support the possi...
متن کاملShort term effects of ginger on quality of life, disease activity index, inflammatory and oxidative stress factors in ulcerative colitis
Background: Chronic inflammation and oxidative stress are the two essential factors determining ulcerative colitis (UC) onset and severity status. In present study, we aimed to investigate short-term effects of ginger (Zingiber officinale) as a well-known antioxidant and anti-inflammatory agent on the quality of life, disease activity index and some of inflammatory and oxidative stress factors ...
متن کاملIncreased activity and expression of matrix metalloproteinase-9 in a rat model of distal colitis.
Matrix metalloproteinases may play a role in tissue remodelling and destruction associated with inflammation. We investigated activity and expression of matrix metalloproteinases in a rat model of colitis and tested the therapeutic potential of a synthetic inhibitor (CGS-27023-A). Colitis was induced by dextran sulphate sodium (at 5% in drinking water for 5 days) in a group of eight rats, where...
