Extensive research has been conducted to elucidate and substantiate the crucial role of Renin-Angiotensin System (RAS) in pathogenesis hypertension, cardiovascular disorders, renal diseases. Furthermore, oxidative stress maintaining vascular balance well established. It observed that many cellular effects induced by Angiotensin II (Ang II) are facilitated reactive oxygen species (ROS) produced ...

Glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) is the key enzyme that initiates pentose phosphate cycle in glucose metabolism. Physiologically, this pathway main source of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NADPH) for red blood cells. This study aims to identify glucose-6-phosphate mutations Nung ethnic patients with G6PD deficiency. 18 pediatric group were diagnosed deficiency at Vietnam National Ch...

This study aimed to assess the antioxidant effects of rutin on methotrexate-induced hepatic oxidative stress. Wistar Albino rats (n=24) were separated into 4 groups: control group (C); methotrexate (M, 20 mg/kg, single dose) group; (R, 50 mg/kg/day, for fifteen days) and + [MR, (20 (50 days)] group. Rats sacrificed sixteenth day liver tissues removed. The glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD...
