Experience of Using the Recombinant Human Superoxide Dismutase Drug in Neurological and Ophthalmological Practice
نویسندگان
چکیده
Recsod® has been used for treating epilepsy and ophthalmological disease. Oxidative stress has been demonstrated to be a pathogenic chain of these diseases. Parameters of proand antioxidant systems were studied in all the patients treated. Recsod® drug was shown to produce positive effect in all the patients. Improvement of patients’ clinical condition correlated with an increase in antioxidant activities. Antioxidants, in particular, the recombinant human SOD drug, proved to be effective in treatment of some neurological and ophthalmological diseases.

Enhancement of Solubility and Specific Activity of a Cu/Zn Superoxide Dismutase by Co-expression with a Copper Chaperone in Escherichia coli
Background: Human Cu/Zn superoxide dismutase (hSOD1) is an antioxidant enzyme with potential as a therapeutic agent. However, heterologous expression of hSOD1 has remained an issue due to Cu2+ insufficiency at protein active site, leading to low solubility and enzymatic activity.Objectives:The effect of co-expressed human copper chaperone (hCCS) to enhance the solubility and enzymatic act...

Background. We report a case of bilateral posterior subcapsular cataracts (PSCs) in a 24-year-old man with an allergic conjunctivitis history caused by a long-term therapy with glucocorticoids. Case Presentation. The patient showed a visual acuity of 9/10 for both eyes. He followed a therapy with ketotifen and bilastine for four years. During the last six months before our evaluation, he was tr...
متن کاملProtective effects of human recombinant superoxide dismutase on transient ischemic injury of CA1 neurons in gerbils.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE It has been postulated that oxygen-derived free radicals are produced in significant quantities upon reperfusion of ischemic brain and that the free radicals play a pivotal role in triggering the ischemic neuronal damage causing delayed neuronal death. This study was undertaken to examine the effects of human recombinant superoxide dismutase on the delayed neuronal death ...
متن کاملHuman Erythrocyte Superoxide Dismutase Encapsulated in Positively Charged Liposomes
Superoxide dismutase (SOD) is an important antioxidant that protects many types of cells from the free radical damage. One of the possible ways for the use of SOD is its incorporation in liposomes. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of cationic phospholipids on the entrapment of human erythrocyte superoxide dismutase (Cu/Zn SOD) in liposomes. Also, in the present study, w...
متن کاملProtective effect of human recombinant copper-zinc superoxide dismutase (hr-cuznsod) on intermediate burn survival in rats.
Objectives. Superoxide dismutase, acting as a scavenger of oxygen free radicals, has shown mixed results in increasing survival from burn wounds. We previously demonstrated that human recombinant copper-zinc superoxide dismutase could increase the survival of failing ischaemic flaps in a rat model. Because of the similar pathophysiology of tissue ischaemia in flaps and intermediate zone burns, ...
