Ascorbic acid (AsA) is an important antioxidant in plants and an essential vitamin for humans. Extending the study of AsA-related genes from Arabidopsis thaliana to Brassica rapa could shed light on the evolution of AsA in plants and inform crop breeding. In this study, we conducted whole-genome annotation, molecular-evolution and gene-expression analyses of all known AsA-related genes in B. ra...
Metachromatic leukodystrophy is a metabolic disorder caused by the deficiency of arylsulfatase A. Deficiency of this enzyme is also found in apparently healthy individuals, a condition for which the term pseudodeficiency was introduced. The arylsulfatase A (cerebroside-3-sulfate 3-sulfohydrolase; EC 3.1.6.8) (ASA) encoding gene was isolated from an individual homozygous for the ASA pseudodefici...
Prostaglandins (PGs) protect gastric mucosa against damage produced by acetylsalicylic acid (ASA). Whether this effect of prostaglandins is truly cytoprotective and whether cAMP plays an important role in this effect is uncertain. We studied the effect of: (1) 16,16 dimethyl prostaglandin E2 (dmPGE2), isobutylmethyl xanthine (IMX), and dibutyryl cAMP (DBcAMP) on ASA-induced damage to monolayer ...
The effect of 5-ASA and 4-ASA, drugs used for the treatment of inflammatory bowel disease, on modulation of experimental colitis and on colonic generation of interleukin-1 was evaluated. Three weeks of treatment with 5-ASA or 4-ASA (50 micrograms/kg) and one week of treatment with 5-ASA significantly decreased colonic interleukin-1 generation and the extent and severity of inflammation in a rat...
This study was conducted to examine the utility of the combined use of ascorbic acid (AsA) and radiation in clinical applications. We investigated cell survival, DNA fragmentation, and caspase activation after X-ray irradiation and AsA treatment of human leukemia HL60 cells. The number of living cells decreased after combined X-ray irradiation and AsA treatment (2 Gy + 5 mM) in comparison with ...
Significant efforts are required to enable rice plant to cope with the menace of high night temperature (HNT) stress. As an immediate solution, use of plant growth hormones can be targeted to maximize plant tolerance against HNT stress. Ascorbic acid (AsA) is a small water soluble molecule which acts as an antioxidant and can directly detoxify active oxygen species. In this study, the potential...
Mycoplasma hyorhinis (M. hyorhinis) exerts multiple effects on cell metabolisms including apoptosis mediated by their endonucleases and nitric oxide production in vitro. Although AsA is preferable to health in general because of its reactive oxygen species scavenging activity, we found that in a human carcinoma cell line AZ-521 infected with M. hyorhinis, apoptosis was enhanced by addition of L...
Stroke is the second leading cause of death. Experimental animal models of cerebral ischemia are widely used for researching mechanisms of ischemic damage and developing new drugs for the prevention and treatment of stroke. The present study aimed to comparatively investigate neuroprotective effects of aspirin (ASA), decursinol (DA) and new synthetic aspirin-decursinol adduct (ASA-DA) against t...
Regular use of aspirin (ASA) could reduce the risk of gastric cancer although the precise mechanism remains unclear. Down-regulation of survivin may be one of the cyclooxygenase-independent mechanisms whereby ASA induces apoptosis of gastric cancer cell. In this study, we investigated the effect of ASA on the growth, apoptosis and survivin expression of gastric cancer cell line SGC7901. The sur...
