Biomarkers of oxidative stress in babies at high risk for retinopathy of prematurity.
Oxygen-induced oxidative stress (OS) has damaging effects in the perinatal period. For now there is a lake of evidence that OS occurs in babies with retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) We tests the hypothesis that a strict oxygen policy may minimize postnatal OS reducing severity of ROP. Multicenter prospective cohort study (72 newborns), using a common clinical management protocol with a strict c...
متن کاملProrenin and the (pro)renin receptor: do they have a pathogenic role in the retina?
Prorenin, the inactive precursor of renin has been suggested to be an indicator of diabetic complications including retinopathy. This concept was originally based on findings that prorenin is elevated in the plasma and vitreous of patients with diabetic retinopathy. Experimental studies in animal models of diabetic retinopathy and retinopathy of prematurity, have confirmed these reports and loc...
متن کاملRole of nitric oxide in shock: the large animal perspective.
Excessive nitric oxide (NO) formation plays important roles in the pathogenesis of shock and multiple organ failure in sepsis and acute lung injury (ALI). Evidence from studies in large animal models of shock provide further insight into the role of NO and the varying nitric oxide synthase (NOS) isoforms. Nonselective NOS inhibition in sepsis models reversed sepsis-induced derangements in hemod...
متن کاملUse of genetically engineered mice as models for exploring the role of oxidative stress in neurodegenerative diseases.
A growing body of evidence has suggested that oxidative stress may play a major role in the degeneration of neurons associated with several neurological diseases of aging including ALS, Parkinson's, and Alzheimer's disease; this has been the topic of numerous previous reviews and opinion papers (e.g. 1-10). The ability to construct genetically engineered mouse lines containing targeted mutation...
متن کاملDevelopmental differences in the role of interleukins in hyperoxic lung injury in animal models.
Interleukins (IL) are part of the group of immune mediators known as cytokines. IL are produced by many different cells and possess a wide spectrum of biological activities. This review will be focused on the role of IL-1 to 6, 8, 10-13 as it pertains to the effects of hyperoxia on the adult and newborn lung in animal models. Hyperoxic exposure to the adult and newborn lung had variable effects...
