It is a successful means to control rot disease it leads fundamental effects on the physiology of host, as use in agent hostile Fusarium solani causal Broad bean root .The results this study appeared that have make less tot incidence severity plants increase resistance-Link...

BACKGROUND This investigation describes the relationship between glutathione peroxidase activities, an antioxidant enzyme, and the oxidative status in diabetic rat blood. METHODS Malondialdehyde level and glutathione peroxidase activity were measured by spectrophotometric techniques. RESULTS AND CONCLUSIONS Malondialdehyde content in the diabetic rats group was increased compared to that in...

Toshio Kaneko, MD, Third Department of Internal Medicine, Yamaguchi University School of Medicine, Koguchi, Ube Yamaguchi 755 (Japan) Oxidative damage of red cell membrane is known to be accelerated in sickle cell disease. However, the exact mechanism of this acceleration is unclear. We have read with interest the recent article entitled ‘Selenium and Glutathione Peroxidase Levels in Sickle Cel...

The goal of this work was the research chondroitin sulfate prophylactic action on glutathione system state in rat blood serum during acute joint inflammation. performed white non-linear pubertal males weighting 160-240 grams compliance to all general ethical principles animal research. All animals were divided four experimental groups. first group – control: injected with 0,1 ml 0,9 % NaCl solu...

the present study aimed to evaluate the protective effect of crocin on gastric mucosal lesions caused by ischemia-reperfusion (i/r) injury in rats.forty male rats were randomly divided into sham, control (i/r injury) and three crocin-pretreated groups. to induce i/r lesions, the celiac artery was clamped for 30 min and then the clamp was removed to allow reperfusion for 3 h. pretreated-rats rec...

objective: environmental pollution is of major concern today and lead is considered to be one of the most important environmental pollutants. long-term contact with lead causes harmful effects to humans. this study seeks to determine the effects of curcuma longa (turmeric extract) consumption and exercise training on glutathione peroxidase and protein carbonyl in kidney and spleen tissues from ...

background oxidative stress plays a major pathogenic role in liver injury following chronic hepatitis b. glutathione peroxidase (gpx) has a central role in regulating the oxidative state. hepatitis b virus (hbv) results in down-regulation of gpx. on the other hand, iron homeostasis is disrupted in hbv infected patients. therefore, the objective of this study was to assess the interplay of gpx a...

The glucocorticoid receptor (GR) mediates the biological effects of glucocorticoids (GCs) through activation or repression of gene expression, either by DNA binding or via interaction with other transcription factors, such as AP-1. Work in tissue culture cells on the regulation of AP-1-dependent genes, such as collagenase (MMP-13) and stromelysin (MMP-3) has suggested that the antitumor and ant...

BACKGROUND The alterations of the glutathione peroxidase enzyme complex system occur in physiological conditions such as aging and oxidative stress consequent to strenuous exercise. METHODS Authors optimize the spectrophotometric method to measure glutathione peroxidase activity in rat red blood cell membranes. RESULTS The optimization, when applied to age paired rats, both nulligravid and ...

A new method for the determination of glutathione peroxidase activity in erythrocytes was developed. The present method was applied to the measurement of hydrogen peroxide removal rates by glutathione peroxidase in erythrocytes at 70 microM hydrogen peroxide under simulated in vivo conditions. The removal rates by glutathione peroxidase in mouse erythrocytes were twenty-times faster than those ...
