recent research highlights the importance of gsts in the establishment of chronic helminth infections. gsts have the potential to protect the parasite against the host immune response. in this present study, gst enzyme assay has been investigated on whole extract of f. hepatica and sheep liver tissue. to the 1-ml plastic cuvette, added 200 mm potassium phosphate buffer. then added 50 mm gsh red...

Sum mary Aim: The aim of this study was to establish serum sistatine C, urine β2 microglobulin, gluthatione-S -transferase π and N-acetyle β-D glucosaminidase levels in order to evaluate the effect of total parenteral nutrition on renal function in premature infants. In addition, we aimed to compare the renal functions between premature infants receiving total parenteral nutrition and control g...

Imbalance between reactive oxygen species generation and antioxidant capacity induces a condition known as oxidative stress which is implicated in numerous pathological processes. In this study we evaluated whether natural zeolites chabazite/phillipsite/analcime may affect the levels of different antioxidant enzymes (gluthatione peroxidase, superoxide dismutase, gluthatione reductase), total an...

TOPIC: Sleep Disorders TYPE: Original Investigations PURPOSE: To assess possible relationships between Obstructive Apnea (OSA) syndrome and Gluthatione (GSH) redox system: Glutathione Peroxidase1 (GPx1) Reductase (GSSG-Red). OSA is characterized by sleep fragmentation, repetitive episodes of hypoxia/reoxygenation, systemic glymphatic activity lipid dysregulation, increasing oxidative stress wit...

Non-enzymatic glycation is implicated in the development of various diseases such as Alzheimer's and diabetes mellitus. However, it is also observed during the physiologic process of aging. There is considerable interest in the contribution of oxidative stress to diabetes mellitus. An increase in the generation of reactive oxygen species can occur by non-enzymatic glycation and glucose autoxida...
