Serum LDH and exercise capacity in COPD.
Lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) is the enzyme that catalyses the final step in the glycolytic metabolism, regenerating NAD from reduced NADH, by conversion of pyruvate to lactate. Recently, increased muscle LDH activity has been found in elderly male patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) who were susceptible to contractile fatigue of the quadriceps femoris muscle following cons...
متن کاملDoes oxidative stress modulate limb muscle atrophy in severe COPD patients?
Oxidative stress may differentially regulate protein loss within peripheral muscles of severe chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) patients exhibiting different body composition. Oxidation levels of proteins, myosin heavy chain (MyHC) and myonuclei, superoxide anion, antioxidants, actin, creatine kinase, carbonic anhydrase-3, ubiquitin-proteasome system, redox-signalling pathways, infla...
متن کاملOxidative stress and airway inflammation in severe exacerbations of COPD.
BACKGROUND A study was undertaken to assess both oxidative stress and inflammation in the lungs of patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) during severe and very severe exacerbations compared with those with stable COPD, healthy smokers, and non-smokers. Two sites within the lungs were compared: the large airways (in sputum) and the peripheral airways (by bronchoalveolar lava...
متن کاملSerum 25-hydroxy vitamin D and exercise capacity in COPD.
Serum 25-hydroxy vitamin D and exercise capacity in COPD Janssens and colleagues have recently reported that vitamin D deficiency is very common in patients affected by chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and that vitamin D status correlates with lung function. In the same issue of Thorax, Quint and Wedzicha discuss potential effects of vitamin D deficiency and supplementation in COPD ...
متن کاملInspiratory fraction correlates with exercise capacity in patients with stable moderate to severe COPD.
BACKGROUND Exercise intolerance is the hallmark of COPD. Static lung hyperinflation and increased dynamic hyperinflation during exercise are associated with reduced functional capacity in COPD patients. Inspiratory capacity correction for the total lung capacity, defined as inspiratory fraction (IF), may be functionally more representative than other traditional indices in these patients. OBJ...
