Regulation of antioxidant enzyme activities in male and female rat macrophages by sex steroids.
Human and animal immune functions present sex dimorphism that seems to be mainly regulated by sex hormones. In the present study, the activities of the antioxidant enzymes total superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase (CAT), and glutathione peroxidase (GSH-Px) were measured in intraperitoneal resident macrophages from adult male and female rats. In addition to comparing males and females, we also ...
متن کاملUrinary steroids in fifteen cases of congenital virilizing adrenal hyperplasia.
Since it was shown by Wilkins et al. (1950) that high output of urinary 17-ketosteroids in cases of congenital virilizing adrenal hyperplasia was suppressed by administration of glucocorticoids, the syndrome has been considered to be due to a deficiency in the enzymatic processes necessary for biosynthesis of cortisol. The most common type of the cases shows disturbances in changing 17ƒ¿hydroxy...
متن کاملThe Effects of Female Sex Steroids on Gastric Secretory Responses of Rat Following Traumatic Brain Injury
Objective(s) Gastric ulceration is induced by various forms of stress like surgery, ischemia and trauma. The female sex has more resistance to stress and the gastrointestinal lesions happen fewer than male sex. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the role of estradiol and progesterone on the gastric acid and pepsin levels following traumatic brain injury (TBI) induction. Materials and M...
متن کاملQuantitative evaluation of virilizing activity of steroids by measuring morphological changes in uro-genital region of rats.
A new technique to measure the uro-genital parameters such as the lengths of urovaginal septum, corpora cavernosa and anogenital distance on the sagittal sections of the pelvic region of female fetus of rat under microscope equipped with a micrometer was developed. In the examination of 180 normal female fetuses on the 21st day of gestation, relationships were observed between the fetal body we...
