Background: Several studies have demonstrated that elevated Aluminium (Al) levels contribute to Alzheimer or ALS Multiple sclerosis pathophysiology. Aim: we have described three cases of patients who had extremely elevated Aluminium levels (Al) (before any treatment) by unknown causes. Results: These patients reduces 48 % their Aluminium levels and rise (67 %) GSH (Glutathione: reduced form) le...

Asthma is an inflammatory condition characterized by the involvement of several mediators, including reactive oxygen species. The aim of the present study was to investigate the superoxide release and cellular glutathione peroxidase (cGPx) activity in peripheral blood granulocytes and monocytes from children and adolescents with atopic asthma. Forty-four patients were selected and classified as...

Background: Times New Roman 9, single space, contains the brief description of research. Stroke is greatest cause disability and mortality worldwide. Several biological mechanisms underlying this disease such as failure glutamate reuptake ATP synthesis, resulting in high levels reactive oxygen species (ROS), neuroinflammatory responses, apoptosis, resulted cell death brain tissue damage. Neurot...

Electromagnetic waves affect living organisms and it is of great interest for wide interaction of new sources with a diversity of frequencies and powers to life of people. In the last few years, many authors have proposed that the biological effect of electromagnetic fields in both the high-frequency and low-frequency ranges are connected with oxidative processes in tissues. Studying the change...

Objective(s):Gentamicin sulphate (GS) nephrotoxicity seems to be related to the generation of reactive oxygen species. There is evidence that oxygen preconditioning increases the activity of antioxidant enzymes. Materials and Methods: Forty eight female rats were divided into 6 groups (n=8) as follows: group 1 was the control, group 2 received daily GS, groups 3,4 and 5 received oxygen 2 hr/day...

The single calmodulin (CaM) gene and the corresponding cDNA of the chytridiomycete Blastocladiella emersonii were isolated and characterized. The CaM gene is interrupted by three introns and transcribed in a single 0.7-kb mRNA species encoding a predicted protein 91% identical to human CaM. B. emersonii CaM has been expressed in Escherichia coli as a fusion protein with gluthatione S-transferas...
