... by a significant decrease of GSH and CAT. The efficiency of MEL was specially remarkable in restoring GSH, CAT, and proteinuria to the levels of controls. These results confirm the involvement of free radicals in the pathogenesis of nephrotoxicity induced by AD. Likewise, they show the high antioxidative power...

... glutathione metabolism, was done. In this preliminary characterization of a new and original approach to the prevention of free radical damage in HD, the results obtained indicate that lipoperoxidation in plasma and RBC is decreased and therefore oxidative damage can be significantly decreased using CL-E...

...Mustafa Kavutcu; Orhan Canbolat; Serdar Öztürk; Ekmel Olcay; Satilmis Ulutepe; Cemil Ekinci; Ismail Hakki Gökhun; Ilker Durak In this study, the activities of major enzymes participating in free radical metabolism (xanthine oxidase, XO; CuZn and Mn superoxide dismutases, SOD; glutathione peroxidase...

... was increased and there was a concomitant augmented membrane permeability to glucose and resulted in a loss of ultrafiltration. In vitro experiments with mesothelial cells showed that glycosaminoglycan chondroitin sulphate appears to act as a scavenger of free radicals and so protects the mesothelial cells...

Houser Glutathione (GSH) metabolism, a tissue detoxification pathway, was evaluated in rats with adriamycin nephrosis (AN) treated with dimethylthiourea (DMTU), a free radical scavenger. After 7 days of DMTU, a significant...

... concentration of malonaldehyde, indicating an augmentation in oxygen free radical generation. Possibly these may have caused a non-enzymatic breakdown of polyribosomes. However, pretreatment with allopurinol did not prevent polyribosome breakdown during ischaemia-reperfusion injury. 5 9 2001 © 2001...

... the influence of carnitine supplementation on plasma lipids, red blood cell count, and metabolism of free radicals. Methods: Twelve regularly dialyzed patients (average age 55.5 years, average dialysis treatment period 22.5 months) were given 15 mg/kg L -carnitine intravenously three times weekly (after each...

...Ramasamy Selvam; Periandavan Kalaiselvi Objective: Urolithiasis and free radicals have long been associated. In this study, we have isolated calcium oxalate monohydrate (COM) binding proteins from rat kidney before and after lipid peroxidation (LPO) and studied its properties on calcium oxalate...

In summary, under our experimental conditions OVX worsens hyperlipidemic nephropathy induced by AD, whereas the simultaneous administration...
