The relationship of body condition, superoxide dismutase, and superoxide with sperm performance

Superoxide dismutase Superoxide dismutase

Relationship between superoxide dismutase 1 and patients with Alzheimer’s disease

Aims: The purpose of this study was to investigate the association between superoxide dismutase 1 (SOD1) rs2070424, rs4998557 polymorphisms and the susceptibility of Alzheimer’s Disease (AD) in Chinese Han population. Methods: Polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) was used to determine genotypes of SOD1 polymorphisms in 98 patients with AD and 105 healthy...

Effect of Superoxide Dismutase

This study assesses the effect of the superoxide anion scavenger superoxide dismutase on myocardial capillary permeability-surface area (PS) products for small hydrophilic molecules after ischemia and reperfusion. Open-chest dogs underwent a 20-minute occlusion of the left anterior descending coronary artery followed by 1 hour of reperfusion. Myocardial plasma flow rate and capillary extraction...

P-78: Supplementation of Sperm Cryopreservation Media with Cell Permeable Superoxide Dismutase Mimetic Agent (MnTE) Improves Goat Blastocyst Formation

Background: ROS production is a well-established phenomenon during sperm cryopreservation. Therefore, supplementation of freezing media with antioxidant is an inevitable event. The aim of this study was to assess whether a cell permeable superoxide dismutase agent such as MnTE, can further improve the quality of frozen/ thawed semen sample using a commercially optimized sperm cryopreservation m...

Spectroscopic comparisons of the pH dependencies of Fe-substituted (Mn)superoxide dismutase and Fe-superoxide dismutase.

We have compared the active sites of Escherichia coli Fe-substituted (Mn)superoxide dismutase [Fe-sub-(Mn)SOD] and Fe-SOD to elucidate the basis for the inactivity of Fe-sub-(Mn)SOD, despite its apparent similarity to Fe-SOD. The active site of (reduced) Fe2+-sub-(Mn)SOD is qualitatively similar to that of native Fe2+-SOD, indicating similar active site structures and coordination environments ...
