Uric acid and neuroprotection.
Uric Acid and Neuroprotection To the Editor: Having arguably originated both sides and after longequivocation over whether urate is physiologically primarily proor antioxidant, we finally declared in favor of a neuroprotective role in acute ischemic stroke.1 But, as Dawson et al2 note, this leaves unanswered the role of xanthine oxidase and the putative pro-oxidant role of urate in atherosclero...
متن کاملUric acid excretion and surgery.
Surgical operation has long been considered capable of precipitating acute gouty arthritis (Hench, 1935; Linton and Talbott, 1943) but details of uric acid metabolism in this situation are unknown. This paper describes a study of postoperative uric acid levels in plasma and urine in a number of patients undergoing surgical operation.
متن کاملUric acid transport and disease.
Uric acid is the metabolic end product of purine metabolism in humans. It has antioxidant properties that may be protective but can also be pro-oxidant, depending on its chemical microenvironment. Hyperuricemia predisposes to disease through the formation of urate crystals that cause gout, but hyperuricemia, independent of crystal formation, has also been linked with hypertension, atheroscleros...
متن کاملSerum and Urinary Malondialdehyde (MDA), Uric acid, and Protein as markers of perinatal asphyxia
INTRODUCTION Perinatal asphyxia (PA) is among the leading causes of neonatal morbidity and death in neonatal intensive care units (NICUs). The aims of this research were to determine the concentrations of malondialdehyde (MDA), urine MDA, uric acid, and protein in the cord blood of neonates with perinatal asphyxia and to determine their relationship with the severity of perinatal asphyxia. ME...
متن کاملUric Acid and Renal Function
Since the discovery of hyperuricemia as the cause of gout in the early 1800s, hypertension, cardiovascular disease and kidney disease have also been related to increased serum uric acid (UA) levels in subsequent years (Nakagawa et al., 2006); patients with gout had a much higher prevalence of hypertension (25-50%), mild-to-moderate kidney disease (20-60%) (Kutzing & Firestein, 2008) and cardiov...
