The present study was conducted to evaluate some of the components of antioxidant defense system and oxidative damage in 20
male patients of alcoholic liver disease (ALD). The results were compared with 20 healthy male smokers and 20 healthy male
non-smokers volunteers. Patients were subjected to detailed clinical examination and laboratory investigations. Blood samples
were collected for estimating reduced glutathione (GSH), total thiols (T-SH) malondialdehyde (MDA), transaminases (AST, ALT),
glutathione-S-transferease (GST) and gammaglutamyl transferase (GGT). Serum aspartate amino transferase (AST)/alanine amino
transferase (ALT) ratio was significantly (p<0.01) reduced in ALD patients as compared to the controls. However, the core
of utility of MDA and GST was found to be significantly (p<0.01) increased in ALD patients compared to controls. There was
a significant negative correlation of MDA with both GSH and TSH. Plasma GGT levels were significantly (p<0.01) increased in
alcoholics and the enzyme showed a significant positive correlation with MDA. These results give enough evidence of increased
oxidative stress and compromised antioxidant defense system in patients with ALD. 相似文献

Damaging effects of reactive oxygen species on living systems are well documented. They include oxidative attack on vital
cell constituents. Chronic ethanol administration is able to induce an oxidative stress in the central nervous system. In
the present study, 16–18 week-old male albino rats of Wistar strain were exposed to different concentration of ethanol for
4 weeks. This exposure showed profound effect on body weight. Ascorbic acid level; and activities of alkaline phosphatase
and aspartate transaminase in the brain are dependent on the concentration of ethanol exposure. Chronic ethanol ingestion
elicits statistically significant increase in thiobarbituric acid reactive substances level and decrease in gluatathione level
in the brain. It reduces superoxide dismutase, catalase, glutathione peroxidase, and glutathione reductase activities in a
dose dependent manner. However, histological examination could not reveal any pathophysiological changes. Therefore, we conclude
that biochemical alterations and oxidative stress related parameters respond early in alcoholism than the histopathological
changes in brain. 相似文献

Hemodialysis represents a chronic stress status for its recipients. Many hypotheses state that this may be associated with
oxidative stress. Thus, there may be deficiency of antioxidants like erythrocytic superoxide dismutase, catalase, vitamin
E or increased generation of free radicals like superoxide anions. A study was carried out to investigate oxidant and antioxidant
status in chronic renal failure patients undergoing hemodialysis and effect of vitamin E supplementation on these two status.
Blood samples were collected from patients before and after hemodialysis and from controls. The samples were analyzed for
quantitation of MDA as index of lipid peroxide, nitric oxide, vitamin E, vitamin C and enzymatic antioxidants namely erythrocyte
SOD and catalase. As compared to controls, the levels of serum MDA were significantly increased and activities of erythrocyte
SOD and catalase, levels of serum nitric oxide, serum vitamin E and plasma vitamin C were significantly decreased both before
and after hemodialysis. The efficiency of vitamin E therapy in hemodialysis patients was assessed by re-evaluating oxidant
and antioxidant status of same patients after supplementation of vitamin E. Vitamin E supplementation caused decrease in serum
MDA and increase in levels of serum nitric oxide, vitamin E, vitamin C and activities of erythrocytic SOD and catalase. Our
results suggest the presence of oxidative stress and the possible preventive role of vitamin E therapy in hemodialysis patients. 相似文献

Introduction:
Urinary tract infection (UTI) is one of the most common bacterial infectious diseases in children. The aim of this study was to determine the total prooxidant and antioxidant capacity of children with UTI, as well as changes of oxidative status parameters according to acute inflammation persistence and acute kidney injury (AKI) development.Materials and methods:
The patients enrolled in the study comprised 50 Caucasian children (median age was 6 months) with UTI. Total oxidant status (TOS), total antioxidant status (TAS), oxidative stress index (OSI), inflammation marker C-reactive protein (CRP) and renal function parameters urea and creatinine were analyzed in patient’s serums.Results:
According to duration of inflammation during UTI, TAS values were significantly higher (0.99 vs. 0.58 mmol/L, P = 0.017) and OSI values were significantly lower (0.032 vs. 0.041 AU, P = 0.037) in the subjects with longer duration of inflammation than in the subjects with shorter duration of inflammation. We did not find significant difference in basal values of oxidative status parameters according to AKI development.Conclusions:
OSI values could detect the simultaneous change of TAS and TOS due to change in the oxidative-antioxidant balance during the recovery of children with UTI. TAS and OSI as markers of oxidative stress during UTI are sensitive to accompanying inflammatory condition. Further investigations are needed to evaluate whether TAS, TOS and OSI could be used to monitor disease severity in children with UTI. 相似文献5.
Increased oxidative stress is a widely accepted participant in the development and progression of diabetes and its complications.
The present study has been undertaken to evaluate oxidative stress in type 2 diabetes mellitus and effect of vitamin E supplementation
on oxidative stress. In all 120 subjects were enrolled in the present study, 40 subjects are age and sex matched controls.
Test group comprised of clinically diagnosed (n = 80) type 2 diabetic patients. Biochemical parameters like serum MDA, nitric oxide, superoxide dismutase, erythrocyte reduced
glutathione and platelet aggregation were analyzed in control and diabetic group. Test group is further categorized as Group
I (n = 40) diabetics were treated by only hypoglycemic drugs and Group II (n = 40) diabetics were treated by hypoglycemic drugs with vitamin E supplementation. All above biochemical parameters were
again reassessed after 3 months follow-up in both group and its values were compared with its respective baseline levels.
The study shows, reduction of oxidative stress, improvement in antioxidant enzymes and endothelial dysfunction in group II,
those were on treatment of hypoglycemic drugs along with vitamin E supplementation. Hence the present study may conclude that
vitamin E supplementation along with hypoglycemic drugs may be beneficial to type 2 DM patients to minimize vascular complications. 相似文献

The objective of the study was to observe the correlation between oxidative stress and antioxidants in myocardial infarct
patients with normal lipid profile. In the present study investigation of lipid peroxidation and antioxidants were done in
patients. This study was carried out on 165 AMI patients, (123 males and 42 females). The control group consisted on 165 normal
healthy age-sex matched subjects (123 males and 42 females). Levels of Superoxide dismutase, Glutathione Peroxidase, Catalase,
Malondialdehyde and Conjugated dienes were measured. The study found Superoxide dismutase, Glutathione Peroxidase, Catalase
were significantly lower in activities (p<0.001) in AMI patients compared to controls. The markers of lipid peroxidation namely
Malondialdehyde and Conjugated dienes were higher in AMI patients as compared to controls (p<0.001). The present study is
clearly suggestive of increased oxidative stress in AMI patients. Oxidative stress appears as an etiological factor for myocardial
infraction as a consequence the free radical scavengers levels are lowered in AMI patient. 相似文献

End stage renal disease (ESRD) patients on hemodialysis (HD) have an increased oxidative stress, with a high risk of atherosclerosis and other co-morbid conditions. Recent studies have suggested that myeloperoxidase (MPO)—mediated oxidative stress may play a role in the pathogenesis of cardiovascular complications in dialysis patients. Furthermore, dialysis treatment ‘per se’ can aggravate oxidative stress. Hence this study was designed to determine whether HD leads to an alteration in the plasma levels of MPO and malondialdehyde (MDA), a marker of oxidative stress in ESRD patients on maintenance HD. To study the effect of HD, plasma MPO and MDA were determined before and after HD in forty ESRD patients (24 men and 16 women, age between 8 and 71 years, median being 40.5 years) on maintenance HD. Plasma MPO and MDA were assayed by spectrophotometric methods. Haematological and other biochemical parameters were obtained from patients’ case records. Plasma MPO and MDA levels were significantly higher after HD when compared with pre-dialysis levels (p < 0.05). There was no correlation between MPO and MDA (r = 0.184, p = 0.10) and other biochemical parameters (p > 0.05). However, there was a significant correlation between MPO and MDA with haemodialysis vintage (p < 0.05). In univariate regression analysis duration of HD (β = 1.470, p = 0.045, β = 0.388, p = 0.013), was independently associated with MPO and MDA. Although HD is indispensable for survival of patients with ESRD, it is fraught with undesirable side-effects, such as an increase in the plasma MPO and MDA levels. The elevated levels of MPO contribute to the increased oxidative stress as free radicals are produced by the reaction catalyzed by it. 相似文献

The aim of this study is to evaluate the oxidative stress in predialysis, hemodialysis (HD) and peritoneal dialysis patients and to test the effects of antihypertensive drugs and volume control on oxidative stress parameters. The study was composed of five groups as follows: control group (n = 30), predialysis group (n = 30), peritoneal dialysis group (n = 30), hemodialysis group, (normotensive with strict volume control, n = 30), hemodialysis group (normotensive with medication, n = 30). Plasma malondialdehyde (MDA), erythrocyte superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase (CAT), glutathione peroxidase (GSHPx) and routine biochemical parameters were studied in all patients. Hemodialysis patients with strict volume control (HDvc) had lower levels of MDA than other patient groups (p < 0.001), and CAT, SOD values had highest level other patient groups (p < 0.001). The treatment of hypertension with strict volume control in chronic renal failure patients causes less damage to the antioxidant capacity. 相似文献

It has been suggested that antioxidant systems are impaired in pregnancy induced hypertension and hence patients are exposed
to oxidative stress. In order to investigate the relationship between lipid peroxidation and certain antioxidant parameters
in blood of pregnancy induced hypertension (PIH) cases, 25 normotensive and 23 PIH samples were studied. In the present study,
thiobarbituric acid reactive substances showed a tendency to increase, however the increase remained statistically insignificant.
Plasma ascorbic acid level remained unaltered and Vitamin E showed a tendency to increase in the study group. The findings
implicate oxidative stress in the disease and cite the biochemical rationale for clinical trials of antioxidants to prevent
and treat pregnancy induced hypertension. 相似文献

In view of association of diabetes mellitus and male infertility, present study was designed to investigate the functional
status of hypothalamic pituitary gonadal (HPG) axis in diabetic men. Thirty-five diabetic men (BMI 22.24±0.21) in the age
group 20–40 (30.6±4.7) years were selected. Twenty-five healthy men (BMI 23.85±0.25), in the same age group (29.5±4.8) served
as control. Blood samples were collected for hormonal and biochemical estimations. Diabetic men had significantly low serum
testosterone with low LH and FSH, hypercholesterolemia, hypertriglyceridemia, hypoalbuminemia and increased oxidative stress.
Low serum testosterone in diabetic men was accompanied by low LH and FSH; the inability of the pituitary gland to respond
appropriately to a decline in testosterone implying central effect of high serum glucose on the interaction between the nervous
and endocrine system. Nutritional deficiency, increased oxidative stress and increased aromatase activity due to excessive
body fat might have also contributed to low serum testosterone. 相似文献

Chronic myeloid leukemia is a myeloproliferative disorder with a unique rearrangement, the Philadelphia chromosome. Oxidative
stress, a pervasive condition of an increased number of reactive oxygen species, is now recognized to be prominent feature
of various diseases and their progression. Thus antioxidants, which control the oxidative stress state, represent a major
line of defense regulating overall true state of health. The relationship between antioxidants status and levels of well-known
markers of oxidative stress that are measured as lipid peroxides and oxidized proteins reflect better health indices and postures.
The aim of this study was to evaluate the role of oxidative stress in pathophysiology of Chronic myeloid leukemia by measuring
the circulating plasma lipid peroxide levels in terms of malonyldialdehyde, total lipid hydroperoxide and oxidized proteins
as protein carbonyl whereas antioxidant status were estimated in terms of reduced glutathione and total thiol in plasma of
Chronic myeloid leukemia patients. The present study included 47 Chronic myeloid leukemia patients and 20 age-and sex-matched
healthy subjects. Out of 47 Chronic myeloid leukemia patients, 31 were in chronic phase (CML-CP) and 16 in accelerated phase
(CML-AP). The median age of Chronic myeloid leukemia patients was 33 years and that of controls was 32 years. Oxidative stress
and antioxidant status in plasma were evaluated by spectrophotometric procedures. There was a significant increase (p<0.05)
in plasma malonyldialdehyde, total lipid hydroperoxide and protein carbonyl levels in Chronic myeloid leukemia patients as
compared to healthy subjects. Our results also showed that plasma malonyldialdehyde and protein carbonyl levels were markedly
elevated (p<0.05) in both chronic phase (CML-CP) and accelerated phase (CML-AP) as compared to healthy volunteers. Antioxidant
status was found to be significantly decreased (p<0.05) in Chronic myeloid leukemia patients and its phases as compared to
healthy participants. It could be concluded that oxidative stress may be associated with the pathophysiology of Chronic myeloid
leukemia. 相似文献

Gingival crevicular fluid (GCF) is an inflammatory exudate that can be collected at the gingival margin or within the gingival
crevice. The biochemical analysis of the fluid offers a non invasive means of assessing the host response in periodontal disease.
Active phase of periodontal disease process can be measured or assessed by the constituents of gingival fluid. Bacterial enzymes,
bacterial degradation products, connective tissue degradation products, host mediated enzymes, inflammatory mediators, extracellular
matrix proteins either together or individually can be detected in higher levels in gingival crevicular fluid during active
phase of periodontitis. 相似文献

Oxidative stress has been found to play important role in several neuropsychiatric diseases including Obsessive Compulsive
Disorder. A longitudinal case control study was conducted to evaluate the oxidative stress in 30 newly diagnosed obsessive
compulsive disorder patients and same number of control patients. Serum thiobarbituric acid reacting substances, plasma ascorbate
were assessed to evaluate oxidative stress and Yale Brown obsessive compulsive scale for disease severity before and after
treatment with Fluoxetine at the average dosage of 40 mg/day. Improvement in Yale Brown obsessive compulsive scale score by
about 43% after 12 weeks treatment was associated with significantly decreased thiobarbituric acid reacting substances and
increased plasma ascorbate values (p < 0.05). The newly diagnosed obsessive compulsive disorder patients had higher serum
thiobarbituric acid reacting substances as well as a lower plasma ascorbate levels than the control population. Thus, the
present study suggested a significant role of oxidative stress in obsessive compulsive disorder and showed that a successful
treatment with Fluoxetine not only improves the clinical scenario but also reduces the oxidative stress that may further improve
the prognosis of the disease. 相似文献

Ethanol-induced liver injury may be linked, at least partly, to an oxidative stress resulting from increased free radical
production and/or decreased antioxidant defence. Distinguishing alcoholic and non-alcoholic liver disease has important implications.
This study looked at the possible changes between alcoholic and non-alcoholic liver diseases by examining the presence of
oxidative damage, as monitored by several parameters relating to oxidative stress. Lipid peroxides concentration, superoxide
dismutase activity and glutathione S-transferase activity increased, where as glutathione content, glutathione peroxidase
activity and glutathione reductase activity decreased among the tested subjects in comparison to normal healthy group. Determination
of these parameters may be valuable in the evaluation of liver disease. However, oxidative stress related enzymes and non-enzymes
can not be utilized as a marker for alcoholic liver diseases, as these parameters responded in the same way after liver is
damaged irrespective of their cause. Their level may help in determining the degree of liver damage. Degree of oxidative injury
was similar in patients with non-alcoholic liver disease and in moderate drinkers; while significantly higher in heavy drinkers.
The differences between the groups might be based on the type of liver pathological condition rather than its etiology (i.e.
alcohol and non alcohol related causes). 相似文献

Hypertension is the most common cardiovascular risk factor. Lipoprotein(a) [Lp(a)], inflammation, oxidative stress and chronic kidney disease (CKD) exacerbate the response to tissue injury and acts as markers of the vascular disease, especially in glomerulosclerosis. We compared the clinical characteristics of 138 non-diabetes hypertensive women (ndHT) patients with 417 non-diabetes normotensive subjects and tested the association of hypertension with Lp(a), inflammation, CKD and oxidative stress by using multiple logistic regression. BP, BMI, waist circumference, creatinine, Lp(a), inflammation and malondialdehyde levels were significantly higher and CKD state in the ndHT patients (p < 0.05). Multiple logistic regression showed hypertension associated with increased Lp(a), inflammation, ORs and 95 % CIs were 2.52 (1.33, 4.80), 2.75 (1.44, 5.27) after adjusting for their covariates. Elevated serum Lp(a) and inflammation levels concomitants with increased oxidative stress and CKD were the major risk factors associated with hypertension and implications for the increased risk of HT and vascular disease. 相似文献

Cataract is one of the leading causes of visual disability often leading to blindness in the elderly population. One of the
causes is oxidation of proteins present in lens, by hydrogen peroxide (H2O2). In the present study 100 goat lenses were analyzed to determine the protective efficacy of ketoacids, against the oxidative
insult by H2O2. The ketoacids used were (pyruvate, alpha ketoglutarate and oxaloacetate), that are constantly produced endogenously. The
lenses were incubated as control and experimental groups in TC-199 media for 72 hrs. H2O2 concentration of 10mM was used to induce cataract. The biochemical parameters measured were levels of malondialdehyde (MDA),
a lipid peroxidation product and activity of glutathione peroxidase (G-Px), an enzymatic antioxidant. The results showed a
significant increase in the levels of MDA and significant decrease in the activity of G-Px in the cataractous lenses as compared
to control. After addition of ketoacids (pyruvate (10mM), alpha ketoglutarate (20mM) and oxaloacetate (20mM)) separately,
the levels of MDA decreased significantly and the activity of G-Px increased significantly. The results suggest that the ketoacids
can be very promising antioxidants for the treatment of cataract. They may also be useful in treating other disabilities related
to acute and chronic oxidative stress. 相似文献

Role of oxidative stress while controlling iron deficiency anemia during pregnancy - Indian scenario
Neeta Kumar Nomita Chandhiok Balwan S. Dhillon Pratik Kumar 《Indian journal of clinical biochemistry : IJCB》2009,24(1):5-14
Iron Deficiency anemia ranks 9th among 26 diseases with highest burden. Asia bears 71% of this global burden. Adverse maternal and birth outcome associated
with hemoglobin status renders the issue worth attention. Indian scenario has worsened over the period despite continuous
international and national efforts. This indicates some lacunae in the approach and strategies applied. Various reports state
that even with maximum effort to increase outreach and monitoring for adherence to Iron schedule, consumer’s compliance remains
abysmally low. Recent studies has pointed out biological basis of side effects (gastrointestinal complains and systemic events)
as raised oxidative stress for which iron is the key catalyst. Up till now the only target of research has been to raise hemoglobin
of pregnant women above 11gm/dl. With the reports of pregnancy specific morbidities i.e. hemorrhage and septicemia with low
hemoglobin, eclampsia, small for gestation age, gestational diabetes with higher ranges of hemoglobin, alarm is raised to
define optimum range. Use of oxidative stress as biochemical marker with different doses and schedules has been defined because
India lack information for its own population upon oxidative stress status when iron is supplemented as per current guidelines.
Studies done in India and abroad have defined that too much and too less, both may raise oxidative stress and studies of this
sort may provide biochemical scale for optimization. This review therefore has evaluated currently available Indian research
and reports to understand the need of future research area. Important findings from other countries have been incorporated
for comparison. 相似文献

This study aimed to correlate the oxidative stress marker levels in saliva with the clinical stage based on mouth opening, fibrotic bands and histopathological grades of oral submucous fibrosis (OSF) patients. The study included patients clinically diagnosed with OSF (n = 63) and equal number of age and gender matched controls. Patients with OSF were defined by mouth opening stage, fibrotic bands and histopathological grades. Unstimulated saliva from both control and OSF patients were analysed for oxidative markers like lipid peroxides (LPO), non-enzymic antioxidants [reduced glutathione (GSH), vitamin A, vitamin E, vitamin C] and enzymatic antioxidants [glutathione peroxidase (GPx), superoxide dismutase (SOD)] and correlated with different stages and grades. Total salivary protein and LPO were significantly increased in OSF group with no significant change in the levels of GSH compared to controls. In OSF patients, a significant decrease in the levels of vitamins A, C and E was observed. The activities of salivary SOD and GPx were significantly decreased in OSF patients compared to controls. These changes significantly correlated with the increasing and differing grades of OSF that reflects increased oxidative stress with the progress of OSF. 相似文献

Phototherapy has been related to increased oxidative stress and lipid peroxidation. In the present study, thirty full term
jaundiced neonates with appropriate weight were analyzed before and after completion of phototherapy for malondialdehyde (MDA),
reduced glutathione (GSH), total thiols, vitamin C and superoxide dismutase (SOD) levels in hemolysate and albumin levels
in plasma. These parameters were analyzed in cord blood samples of 20 healthy neonates as control. It was observed that levels
of MDA were elevated significantly (p<0.001) in patients as compared to controls and that the levels increased significantly
after phototherapy (p<0.001). Levels of SOD were also found to be increased significantly as compared to controls and the
levels rose after phototherapy (p<0.001). On the other hand, the levels of non-enzymatic antioxidants such as GSH, total thiols
and vitamin C were significantly low (p<0.001) as compared to controls and the levels decreased significantly after phototherapy
(p<0.001). The plasma albumin levels also were found to be decreased significantly after phototherapy (p<0.01). Therefore,
phototherapy increases oxidative stress and should be used with care. 相似文献

Infertility is well-established harmful effect in chronic alcoholism and so far, there is no effective treatment for this
condition. The study was conducted to determine the effects of alpha tocopherol on ethanol induced testicular injuries in
male albino rats of Wistar strain. Five groups (n=6) of animals were used. Group I served as control. Group II received daily
1.6g ethanol/kg body weight/day for 4 weeks orally. Group III received 1.6g ethanol+80mg alpha tocopherol/kg body weight/day
for four weeks orally. Group IV received 1.6g ethanol/kg body weight for/day 4 weeks and followed by 80mg alpha tocopherol/kg
body weight/day for four weeks orally. Group V received 1.6g ethanol/kg body weight/day orally for 4 weeks, followed by 4
weeks abstinence. Twently-four hours after the last treatment the rats were sacrificed using anesthetic ether. Testes were
removed and used for the estimation of extent of lipid peroxidation and tissue levels of antioxidants and steroidogenic enzymes.
Alpha tocopherol treatment increased the activities of testicularΔ
5, 3β-HSD. Moreover, the treatment was also associated with significant decrease in testicular oxidative stress. Ethanol-induced
oxidative stress and decreased steroidogenesis can be reversed by treatment with alpha tocopherol. 相似文献
