Biomarkers of Oxidative Stress and Genotoxicity in Livers of Field-Collected Brown Bullhead
ثبت نشده
چکیده
PURPOSE: This technical note describes the application of a suite of biomarker assays to samples of brown bullhead liver tissues taken from two locations in Ohio. One was a river reach that had historically been severely impacted by the effluents of a coking plant; the other is regarded as relatively pristine, and is a freshwater estuarine research preserve. The objective of the study was to investigate whether differences in biomarker responses in the fish livers could be detected and related to the pollution histories of the two locations, and to the condition of the fish found in them.

The objective of this investigation was to determine whether differences in a suite of biomarker assays in brown bullhead liver tissues could be detected and related to the pollution histories of two Ohio locations, one a reach of the Black River that had historically been severely impacted by the effluents of a coking plant, the other at Old Woman Creek, a freshwater estuarine research preserv...
متن کاملEffects of chloramine-T exposure on oxidative stress biomarkers and liver biochemistry of rainbow trout, Oncorhynchus mykiss (Walbaum), brown trout, Salmo trutta (L.), and grayling, Thymallus thymallus (L.)
Oxidative stress, biochemical and enzymological biomarkers were compared among rainbow trout, Oncorhynchus mykiss (Walbaum), brown trout, Salmo trutta (L.), and grayling, Thymallus thymallus (L.) to determine the mechanisms of hepatotoxicity caused by chloramine-T bath treatment. The fish were exposed to chloramine-T at a concentration of 9 g m for 20 min three times daily every three days. The...
متن کاملLipocalin2 Protects Human Embryonic Kidney Cells against Cisplatin–Induced Genotoxicity
Cisplatin is one of the most useful chemotherapeutics which performs its cytotoxic effectvia accumulation of platinum resulting in oxidative stress, and destruction of cell DNA. Thiscould probably cause secondary cancers in healthy tissues. Lipocalin2 (Lcn2) is a protein whichits expression is increased in oxidative stresses. Therefore, the present study was performedto evaluate the protective ...
متن کاملAn evaluation of some oxidative and enzymatic biomarkers in different stages of naturally occurring copper poisoning in sheep
BACKGROUND: The early stage of Copper poisoning is difficult to be clinically diagnosed in sheep and has not been documented clearly yet. OBJECTIVES: To assess biomarkers in predicting early Copper poisoning in sheep, blood samples were collected from several groups of animals from a naturally Copper poisoning occurrence in an industrial region. METHODS: Animals were divided into four experimen...
