conclusions the results indicated that sod-loaded in sln was delivered into deep burned skin layer and induced high enzyme activity through the skin. low particle size, application of lecithin as surfactant and low crystallinity index (ci) percentage were important factors for increasing sod penetration through the burned rat skin. percentage of activity by sln dispersions through rat skin was ...

superoxide dismutase (sod) is an important antioxidant that protects many types of cells from the free radical damage. one of the possible ways for the use of sod is its incorporation in liposomes. the aim of this study was to investigate the effect of cationic phospholipids on the entrapment of human erythrocyte superoxide dismutase (cu/zn sod) in liposomes. also, in the present study, we exam...

background: superoxide radicals are produced during oxidative metabolic processes, and removed by superoxide dismutase (sod) enzymes. controversial results have been reported regarding the tissue and plasma concentration of sod in patients with breast cancer. methods: venous blood was obtained from study participants and activity of sod enzyme was determined in 100 women. comparison was made be...

objective: ischemic preconditioning (ipc) is an endogenous phenomenon that can induce ischemic tolerance (it) in variety of organs such as brain. in this study, we examined the intermittent and prolonged normobaric hyperoxia (ho) on neurologic deficit scores, infarct volume, and superoxide dismutase activity. materials and methods: the rats were divided to four main groups. first two main grou...

In this study, the synthesis of ceria (CeO2) nanoparticles (NPs) was examined by the biosynthesis method. Then, enzyme-like features of synthesized nanoceria were examined. Peroxidase enzyme from fig (Ficus carica) was used as a synthesis and stabilizer reagent. Furthermore, it was investigated whether the obtained nanoceria has superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase (CAT) and peroxidase (POX) ac...

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...

the human erythrocyte is a rich raw material for the purification of cu-zn superoxide dismutase (sod). we applied a simple and rapid procedure for the purification of sod from human erythrocytes by ion exchange chromatography. the purified sod had a specific activity of 2285.6 u/mg protein and gave a single band on polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis in the presence of sodium dodecyl sulfate (sd...

background: the purpose of this comparative study was to detect superoxide dismutase (sod) activities in fasciola hepatica, f. gigantica parasites, infected and healthy liver tissues in order to determine of species effects and liver infection on sods activity level. methods: fasciola spp. parasites and sheep liver tissues (healthy and infected liver tissues), 10 samples for each, were collecte...
