Calf thymus DNA containing defined levels of 8-hydroxy-2′-deoxyguanosine (8-oxodG) was prepared by treatment with visible light in the presence of photosensitiser Ro 19-8022. The DNA was checked for stability; after freeze-drying, the amount of 8-oxodG did not increase during 6 weeks' storage at room temperature. However, freeze-drying itself can introduce additional oxidative damage. Two enzymic hydrolysis regimes (DNase I, phosphodiesterases I and II, and alkaline phosphatase; or P1 nuclease and alkaline phosphatase) give similar values for 8-oxodG. 相似文献

The objective of this study was to determine the effects of a 10-week dynamic back extension training programme and its effects on back muscle strength, back muscle endurance and spinal range of motion (ROM) for healthy young females. Seventy-three young females (age: 19.32±1.80 years, height: 158.89±4.71 cm, body weight: 55.67±6.30 kg) volunteered for the study. Prior to the training period, all participants completed anthropometric measurements, back muscle strength and endurance test, lateral bending and spinal ROM measurements. After measurements, the participants were divided into two groups. The exercise group (N:35) performed the dynamic back extension exercise 3 days per week for 10 weeks. The control group (N:38) did not participate in any type of exercise. The mixed design ANOVA (group x time) was used to determine the difference in pre- and post-training values. The present findings show that there were significant differences between pre-training and post-training values for back muscle strength and spinal ROM in the exercise group. Following the dynamic strength training programme, back muscle strength and spine ROM values except flexion of the lumbar 5-sacrum 1 (L5-S1) segment of the exercise group showed a significant increase when compared with the pre test values. The control group did not show any significant changes when compared with the pre-training values. The results demonstrate that the 10-week dynamic strength training programme was effective for spinal extension ROM and back muscle strength, but there was no change in back muscle endurance. In this context, this programme could potentially be used to prevent the decrease of spinal ROM as well as provide an increase in the fitness parameters of healthy individuals. 相似文献

AIM: Oxytocin was previously shown to have anti-inflammatory effects in different inflammation models. The major objective of the present study was to evaluate the protective role of oxytocin (OT) in protecting the kidney against ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Male Wistar albino rats (250-300 g) were unilaterally nephrectomized, and subjected to 45 min of renal pedicle occlusion followed by 6 h of reperfusion. OT (1 mg/kg, ip) or vehicle was administered 15 min prior to ischemia and was repeated immediately before the reperfusion period. At the end of the reperfusion period, rats were decapitated and kidney samples were taken for histological examination or determination of malondialdehyde (MDA), an end product of lipid peroxidation; glutathione (GSH), a key antioxidant; and myeloperoxidase (MPO) activity, an index of tissue neutrophil infiltration. Creatinine and urea concentrations in blood were measured for the evaluation of renal function, while TNF-alpha and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) levels were determined to evaluate generalized tissue damage. Formation of reactive oxygen species in renal tissue samples was monitored by chemiluminescence technique using luminol and lucigenin probes. RESULTS: The results revealed that I/R injury increased (p<0.01-0.001) serum urea, creatinine, TNF-alpha and LDH levels, as well as MDA, MPO and reactive oxygen radical levels in the renal tissue, while decreasing renal GSH content. However, alterations in these biochemical and histopathological indices due to I/R injury were attenuated by OT treatment (p<0.05-0.001). CONCLUSIONS: Since OT administration improved renal function and microscopic damage, along with the alleviation of oxidant tissue responses, it appears that oxytocin protects renal tissue against I/R-induced oxidative damage. 相似文献

The present study was aimed to investigate the effect of ACE inhibition on trinitrobenzene sulphonic acid (TNBS)-induced colonic inflammation in rats by using captopril and lisinopril. In treatment groups, the rats were treated with ACE inhibitors, captopril or lisinopril (0.1 and 1 mg/kg/day; intraperitoneally). The drugs were given 5 min after induction of colitis and the treatment was continued for 3 days. Three days after the induction of colitis, all rats were decapitated. The distal colon was weighed and the mucosal lesions were scored at both macroscopical at microscopic levels. Malondialdehyde (MDA) and glutathione (GSH) levels, myeloperoxidase (MPO) activity and collagen content were assessed in tissue samples. Formation of reactive oxygen species in colonic samples was monitored by using chemiluminescence technique. Serum TNF-alphalevel was assessed in trunk blood. Captopril treatment was found to be beneficial in all parameters, except colonic glutathione content. On the other hand, although stimulation of lipid peroxidation and increase in serum TNF-alpha level were successfully prevented by lisinopril, the morphology of the lesions remained unchanged. In conclusion, sulphydryl and non-sulphydryl ACE inhibitors, captopril and lisinopril do not seem to be similarly effective in TNBS-induced colitis model at least at the doses tested in our study. 相似文献

Background: Sepsis is a generalized inflammatory response, which involves organ systems remote from the locus of the initial infectious insult, involves the release of cytokines and the subsequent formation of reactive oxygen and nitrogen species.Objective: The aim of this study was to investigate the possible protective effect of montelukast, a leukotriene receptor blocker, against oxidative damage in the liver and ileum of septic rats.Methods: Sepsis was induced by cecal ligation and puncture method in female Wistar albino rats. Sepsis and sham operated (control) groups received either saline or montelukast (10 mg/kg, ip) immediately after the operation and at 12 h. Twenty-four hours after the surgery, rats were decapitated and malondialdehyde (MDA) content—an index of lipid peroxidation, glutathione (GSH) levels—a key antioxidant, myeloperoxidase (MPO) activity—an index of neutrophil infiltration, and collagen contents were determined in the liver and ileum. Formation of reactive oxygen species in liver and ileal tissue samples was monitored by using chemiluminescence (CL) technique with luminol and lucigenin probes. Both tissues were also analyzed histologically. Serum lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) level were assessed in trunk blood.Results: Sepsis resulted in decreased GSH levels, and increased MDA levels, MPO activity, CL levels and collagen contents in both the liver and the ileum (P<0.05–P<0.001) indicating the presence of the oxidative damage. Similarly, serum TNF-α and LDH were elevated in the sepsis group as compared to control group. On the other hand, montelukast treatment reversed all these biochemical indices, as well as histopathological alterations, which were induced by sepsis.Conclusion: Findings of the present study suggest that montelukast possesses an anti-inflammatory effect on sepsis-induced hepatic and intestinal damage and protects against oxidative injury by a neutrophil-dependent mechanism. 相似文献

Reoxygenation of the ischemic tissue promotes the generation of various reactive oxygen metabolites (ROM) which are known to have deleterious effects on various cellular functions. This study was designed to determine the possible protective effect of mesna (2-Mercaptoethane Sulfonate) on renal ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury. Wistar albino rats were unilaterally nephrectomized, and 15 days later they were subjected to 45 min of renal pedicle occlusion followed by 6 h of reperfusion. Mesna (MESNA, 150 mg/kg, i.p.; an effective dose against I/R injury) or vehicle was administered twice, 15 min prior to ischemia and immediately before the reperfusion period. At the end of the reperfusion period, rats were killed by decapitation. Kidney samples were taken for histological examination or determination of the free radicals, renal malondialdehyde (MDA) and glutathione (GSH) levels, and myeloperoxidase (MPO) activity. Renal tissue collagen content, as a fibrosis marker was also determined. Creatinine and urea concentrations in blood were measured for the evaluation of renal function. The results demonstrated that renal I/R caused nephrotoxicity, as evidenced by increases in blood urea and creatinine levels, which was reversed by MESNA treatment. Increased free radical levels, as assessed by nitroblue-tetrazolium test were reduced with MESNA. Moreover, the decrease in GSH and increases in MDA levels, and MPO activity induced by I/R indicated that renal injury involves free radical formation. Treatment of rats with MESNA restored the reduced GSH levels while it decreased MDA levels as well as MPO activity. Increased collagen contents of the kidney tissues by I/R were reversed back to the control levels by MESNA treatment. Since MESNA administration reversed these oxidant responses, improved renal function and microscopic damage, it seems likely that MESNA protects kidney tissue against I/R induced oxidative damage. 相似文献

The adverse effect of seafood consumption on human health is related to the bioaccessibility in contrast with the total heavy metal level in the tissues. In this study, bioaccessibility of Cd, Cr, Cu, Mn, Ni, Pb, and Zn in Mediterranean mussel (Mytilus galloprovincialis Lamarck, 1819) edible soft tissues collected along the southern Black Sea coast were investigated using in vitro digestion model. Total Pb concentration in the tissues was found to be higher than the maximum permissible limits set by European Commission. The bioaccessibility of metals in the tissues was found to be decreased in the order: Ni (83.11%) > Cu (80.47%) > Zn (76.86%) > Cd (73.32%) > Mn (69.11%) > Pb (61.07%) > Cr (58.44%). While significant positive linear regression was observed between total and bioaccessible concentrations for Mn, Pb, and Ni, significant negative linear regression was found for Cd (p < .05). The hazard quotients (HQ) calculated using bioaccessible amount were detected lower than the limit (HQ <1), which may not pose a potential hazard to humans reported by US Environmental Protection Agency. In sum, mussel consumption from sampling sites may cause a potential risk concerning human health especially for Cd and Pb in case of increased portion sizes. 相似文献

In this study, the possible uses of glassworts as potential food ingredients and their antiproliferative activity against colorectal adenocarcinoma cells together with their antioxidant and phytochemical profiles were investigated for the first time. MeOH extracts of five different taxa collected from different localities were screened for their antioxidant capacities by DPPH (IC50 2.91 – 5.49 mg/ml) and ABTS (24.4 – 38.5 μmol TE/g extract) assays. Salicornia freitagii exhibited the highest DPPH radical scavenging activity. LC/MS/MS analysis displayed that vanillic acid and p‐coumaric acid were two main phenolic compounds in the extract. Salicornia freitagii extracts also exhibited high antiproliferative activity against HT‐29 (IC50 1.67 mg/ml) and Caco‐2 (IC50 3.03 mg/ml) cells for 72 h. Mineral analysis indicated that all the species with different proportions of elemental components contained high amount of cations. These results indicate that investigated glassworts, with their high phenolic and mineral contents and also notable antioxidant and cytotoxic properties, may be utilized as a promising source of therapeutics. 相似文献
