Manganese superoxide dismutase (MnSOD) is the most effective antioxidant enzyme in mitochondria and protects cells from reactive oxygen species‐induced oxidative damage. The aim of this study was to investigate the association between MnSOD Ala‐9Val gene polymorphism and prostate cancer (PCa) risk in Turkish men with prostate cancer. 33 patients with PCa and 81 control individuals were included in the study. We observed an association between MnSOD Ala/Ala frequency and a higher PCa risk. In addition, we found that the increased risk of early‐onset PCa (under age of 65) in the men homozygous for Ala allele was higher than the men homozygous for Val allele. However, we determined that MnSOD Ala‐9Val genotype was not associated with the aggressiveness of the disease. The results of our study suggest that MnSOD Ala/Ala genotype may influence on early‐onset of PCa patients, but no effect on subsequent development of the disease in Turkish men. However, our study has a limitation that is small numbers of individuals for cases and controls. Therefore, the presented study limited our statistical power to fully investigate the gene polymorphism on cancer risk. © 2013 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Due to the high heritability of attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), parents of children with ADHD appear to represent a good sample group for investigating the genetics of the disorder. The aim of this study was to investigate the association between ADHD and six polymorphisms in five candidate genes [5-HT2A (rs6311), NET1 (rs2242447), COMT (rs4818), NTF3 (rs6332), SNAP-25 (rs3746544) and (rs1051312)]. We included 228 parents of children diagnosed with ADHD and 109 healthy parents as the control group. The polymorphisms were genotyped using polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) assays and analyzed using the chi-square test and the multinomial logit model. SNAP-25 (rs3746544) polymorphism was associated with loading for ADHD, while 5-HT2A (rs6311) and NET1 (rs2242447) polymorphisms were associated with ADHD. On the other hand, there was no significant association between the SNAP-25 (rs1051312), NTF3 (rs6332), or COMT (rs4818) gene polymorphisms and ADHD. 相似文献

The roles of nitric oxide production and oxidative process were studied in mice infected with Toxocara canis and treated with aminoguanidine which is a specific inhibitor of inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS). Relations of nitric oxide synthase inhibition and tissue pathology were assessed by biochemical, histological and immunohistochemical methods. In experiments, Balb/c albino mice were inoculated with T. canis eggs either with or without aminoguanidine treatment or alone, at 24th, 48th hours and on 7th days. LPx and SOD values in liver tissue and plasma were measured. Liver and lung tissues were evaluated for the pathological lesions. The expression of eNOS and iNOS in both tissues were studied with immunohistochemistry in the same intervals. We observed significant differences between T. canis infected and aminoguanidine treated animals. Larval toxocarosis led to oxidative stress elevation in plasma. Microscopic examination of the liver histological sections revealed pathological lesions in the hepatic parenchyma in infected mice. In the mice received T. canis eggs plus aminoguanidine, the sinusoidal areas were enlarged. Histological lesions were more severe at 48 hours after infection. Numbers of eNOS and iNOS expressing epithelial cells were increased in the T. canis infected mice. The activities of eNOS and iNOS were also observed in the body of the larvae which have migrated to lung and liver. As a result, we have demonstrated that in vivo production of eNO and iNO during T. canis infection cause direct host damages and it is strongly related to the oxidative stress. We propose that larval NO can also be effective in larval migration, but it needs further investigation on distribution of NO in larvae. 相似文献

Physical activity is known to induce oxidative stress in individuals subjected to intense exercise. Contrarily, there are enzymatic and nonenzymatic defence systems against oxygen radicals in aerobic organisms. Sulphydryl groups such as thiol and glutathione (GSH) can be given as an example to non-enzymatic low molecular weight antioxidants. Carnitine may be related to the performance enhancement in high intensity intermittent exercises and might probably improve the aerobic capacity by stimulating lipid oxidation in muscle cells during long term exercise. But, the effects caused by this supplement during physical activity have not been fully described in the literature. The aim of the study was to compare plasma thiols (PSH), malondialdehyde (MDA) and carnitine levels and maximal oxygen uptake (VO2(max)) of the soccers under regular training with the values of the healthy controls. Our results demonstrates that soccers seem to be under less oxidative stress, as their MDA levels were significantly lower (P < 0.001) when compared with the control group while their PSH levels were significantly elevated (P < 0.001), during resting condition. In addition, the plasma carnitine concentrations of the soccer group yields lower values while the VO2(max) yields a higher value when compared with the control group. The differences between the soccer and the control groups are significant (for both, P < 0.001). The present research reveals the fact that regular soccer training shows beneficial effect on decreasing of lipid peroxidation levels. Furthermore; the sportsmen who are under intense training programs have low plasma carnitine values which do not cause negative effect on their sportive performance. 相似文献

The Butterworth lowpass filter is a conventional tool that has been commonly used in gait analysis applications. Its operation mainly depends on the selection of the cut-off frequency, which must be done based on the condition of the raw signal assuming that it is stationary. This tool is unable to deal with nonstationary signals especially if impact is involved. In this paper, a modified version of the Butterworth filter that can handle nonstationary signals is presented. The new filter has a variable cut-off frequency distribution defined for each data point, which is determined by local signal characteristics. Because of its adaptive nature, it is possible for the filter to accommodate changes in the frequency content of the signal. 相似文献
