Myeloperoxidase (MPO) is an enzyme stored in azurophilic granules of polymorphonuclear neutrophils and macrophages and released into extracellular fluid in the setting of inflammatory process. The observation that myeloperoxidase is involved in oxidative stress and inflammation has been a leading factor to study myeloperoxidase as a possible marker of plaque instability and a useful clinical to...
The current study evaluated the effects of a methanol extract from Chaetomorpha aerea (a green alga) on non-specific immune responses and resistance against Edwardsiella tarda infection in Labeo rohita. Different doses (5, 50 500 mg/kg body weight) were injected into fish intraperitoneally while control group was with 0.2 mL sterile physiological salt solution. Variations several immunostimulat...
Despite intense interest in pathways that generate reactive nitrogen species, the physiologically relevant mechanisms for inflammatory tissue injury remain poorly understood. One possible mediator is myeloperoxidase, a major constituent of neutrophils, monocytes, and some populations of macrophages. The enzyme uses hydrogen peroxide and nitrite to generate 3-nitrotyrosine in vitro. To determine...
OBJECTIVES To determine the usefulness of myeloperoxidase in discriminating between patients with acute coronary syndrome and patients with chest pain by other causes. METHODS The study included all patients over 18 years of age who come consecutively to the emergency department from September 2015 to December 2015 with chest pain of non-traumatic origin. The initial patient evaluation was pe...
Myeloperoxidase was purified from human polymorphonuclear leukocytes and the effect of chloride upon the EPR and potentiometric properties was studied. The redox titration between the ferrous and ferric states of the enzyme yielded n = 1 Nernst plots between pH 9 and 4, with clear isosbestic points in the optical spectra during the redox change. The midpoint potential (Em) between the ferric an...
Mucosal biopsy specimens from patients with Helicobacter pylori infection in gastric antrum contain an increased amount of myeloperoxidase. This study was performed to elucidate the interaction of H pylori sonicate protein(s) and neutrophils concerning myeloperoxidase release. Neutrophil degranulation with myeloperoxidase release was examined in a direct stimulating assay. Priming activity of H...
BACKGROUND The present study assessed the significance of troponin and myeloperoxidase levels in the prediction of major adverse cardiac events (MACE) during the 1st month after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). METHODS This prospective, longitudinal study included 100 patients with acute coronary syndrome who underwent PCI. The participants' characteristics were recorded in a questio...
Two methods were utilized to demonstrate the peroxidation of chloride ion to a free species (HOCl or Cl2) by myeloperoxidase. The peroxidase caused the volatilization of radioactivity from soultions containing hydrogen peroxide and [36Cl]NaCl, and catalyzed the formation of HOCl when solutions contianing these components were passed through a Millipore filter to which the peroxidase was adsorbe...
A B S T R A C T Human neutrophils stimulated with phorbol myristate acetate were able to destroy suspensions or monolayers of cultured human endothelial cells. Neutrophil-mediated cytotoxicity was related to phorbol myristate acetate concentration, time of incubation and neutrophil number. Cytolysis was prevented by the addition of catalase, while superoxide dismutase had no effect on cytotoxic...
Cystic fibrosis (CF) is characterized by considerable oxidative stress. However, it is not known whether oxidative stress is an important feature early in this disease. We have investigated a group of infants and young children with CF to establish whether oxidants are produced in their airways. Bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) was assayed for myeloperoxidase as a measure of neutrophilic inf...
