Oxidative stress is thought to be involved in the pathophysiology of malaria, especially in pregnancy where natural resistance
is markedly reduced. In the present study we investigated oxidative stress in 315 pregnant women out of which 159 had Plasmodium
falciparum malaria and 154 controls. We evaluated the level of lipid peroxidation products (MDA level) in the plasma, the
activity of erythrocyte antioxidant defense enzymes, superoxide dismutase (SOD, EC: 1.15.1.1) and catalase (Cat, EC: 1.11.1.6)
as well as the ability to resist oxidative stress by the FRAP (Ferric Reducing Ability of Plasma) assay. Total erythrocyte
protein levels were also examined. For the two groups of patients, several differences between the biochemical parameters
tested were found. Median parasitaemia in women with malaria was 25,392 parasites/μl of blood (Range1200–82000), while in
controls we had no parasites found in thin and thick smears. Levels of lipid peroxidation products (MDA) were significantly
higher in patients with parasitemia than in healthy asymptomatic volunteers (mean: 0.844 ± 0.290 and 0.384 ± 0.129 respectively,
p<0.001). This MDA level was higher in primigravidea and also correlates well with parasite density (p<0.001). Catalase activity
in erythrocytes of women with malaria did not differ statistically from that of controls. In contrast, SOD activity of patients
with malaria was found to be significantly higher than that of controls (mean: 0.7899 ± 0.2777 and 0.4263 ± 0.2629 respectively,
p<0.05). FRAP values declined, from parasitemic patients (1.4619 ± 0.6565) compare to controls (2.4396 ± 0.8883, p<0.05),
particularly in the first and third trimester of gestation (p<0.05 and p<0.01 respectively). Finally, total erythrocyte protein
concentrations of women with malaria did not differ from that of the controls. Our results suggest an imbalance between oxidants
and antioxidants in pregnant women suffering from malaria, a situation which could lead to severe damage for either the mother
or the fetus. Therefore, further research should be done to assess the potential benefits of antioxidant supplementation for
the pregnant women suffering from malaria. 相似文献

The present, study was conducted to determine the level of malondialdehyde (MDA) as an index of free radial induced lipid
peroxidation and antioxidant vitamins-vitamins A, vitamin C and vitamin E in 75 confirmed cases of urolithiasis. Significantly
high level of MDA (p<0.001) with significantly low levels of vitamin E (p<0.001) and vitamin A (p<0.001) with no significant
decrease in vitamin C (p>0.05) were observed in the plasma of urolithiasis cases as compared to normal controls. In conclusion,
it appears that a role of lipid peroxidation and oxidative function exists in the pathogenesis of urolithiasis. But, the exact
mechanism how this occurs remains to be elucidated. 相似文献

Serum lipid profile, apolipoprotein-B (apo-B), malondialdehyde levels(MDA) and superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity were assessed
in 12 cases of xanthelasma with and without coronary artery disease (CAD)/hypertension (HTN) and results are compared with
healthy controls. Dyslipidemia was found in 65% cases of xanthelasma as compared to 20% healthy controls. Xanthelasma patients
had significantly high malondialdehyde (MDA) levels (p<0.01) and significantly decreased (p<0.05) SOD activity as compared
to controls. Among xanthelasma patients, xanthelasma with CAD/HTN showed higher total cholesterol (236±32.7 vs 188±24.7 mg/dl),
low density lipoprotein cholesterol (157±35.5 vs 113±16 mg/dl) and Apo-B (120.5±9.4 vs 114±19.2 mg/dl) levels as compared
to xanthelasma without CAD/HTN. Results of our study indicate that xanthelasma patients with increased apo-B, MDA and decreased
SOD need cardiovascular monitoring. 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

Premature coronary artery disease (CAD) is common in India. We, therefore, studied oxidative stress, dyslipidemia, and high
sensitivity-C reactive protein (hs-CRP) levels in young CAD patients. Present study consisted of male CAD patients below 40
years and age and sex matched healthy controls (n=30 each). Fasting blood samples were analyzed for serum lipid profile, malondialdehyde,
antioxidant enzymes and hs-CRP levels. Dyslipidemia was observed in 90% of the young CAD patients, of which 72.2% showed increased
serum triglycerides and decreased HDL-cholesterol. LDL-cholesterol levels were high in 77.8%. Serum malondialdehyde and hs-CRP
levels were increased significantly (p<0.0001) as compared to controls. hs-CRP levels were in high risk range in all the young
patients. However, glutathione peroxidase activity was reduced significantly (p<0.05). Our data suggests that elevated hs-CRP
levels along with dyslipidemia and oxidative stress adds to the predictive value of premature CAD in young Indians. 相似文献

Tubular damage is a complication associated with nephrotic syndrome and increased levels of urinary enzymes are of significant
value in detection of the same. The aim of our study was to evaluate the use of urinary lysozyme and trehalase as markers
of tubular dysfunction in nephrotic syndrome. This study assessed 35 nephrotic syndrome patients and 30 healthy controls matched
for age and sex. Urine samples were examined at pretreatment and post treatment (8 weeks) stages for proteinuria, lysozyme
and trehalase. At pretreatmant stage there was significant increase in urinary lysozyme and trehalase as compared to controls
(p<0.001). A good correlation was observed between degree of proteinuria and urinary lysozyme (p<0.001;r=0.80) and trehalase
(p<0.001; r=0.74). At the end of 8 weeks of treatment, the patients showed significant decrease in their urinary lysozyme
and trehalase activity (p<0.001) but no correlation with degree of proteinuria was observed. Our results indicate that enzymes
like lysozyme and trehalase can be used as markers of tubular dysfunction. 相似文献

Repeated blood transfusion in beta thalassemia major patients may lead to peroxidative tissue injury by secondary iron overload.
In the present study, 72 children with beta thalassemia major were included. Serum levels of total lipid peroxides, Iron,
Total Iron Binding Capacity, Copper, Zinc, Vitamin E, plasma Total Antioxidant Capacity, activity of Erythrocyte Superoxide
Dismutase, were measured. The findings were compared with 72 age matched healthy controls irrespective of sex. A significant
increase in the levels of lipid peroxide and Iron (p<0.001), whereas, significant decrease in the levels of vitamin-E, Total
Antioxidant Capacity and Total Iron Binding Capacity (p<0.001) was observed. Serum Zinc was significantly increased (p<0.001)
with significant decrease in the levels of copper (p<0.001). Non Significant increase in the activity of Erythrocyte Superoxide
Dismutase (p>0.05) was found in the patients when compared with controls. This suggest that oxidative stress and reduced antioxidant
defense mechanism play an important role in pathogenesis of beta thalassemia major. 相似文献

Serum cardiac troponin T (cTnT) and CKMB (mass) were analysed in three groups of patients. The first group (n=32) were patients
with acute coronary syndromes including myocardial infarction. The second group (n=35)were patients with hypertension. The
third group (n=24) were patients who had succumbed to non cardiac diseases. In all 3 groups, cardiac troponin T was elevated
when compared with controls (p<0.001). However, CKMB elevation was not significant in all groups. CKMB levels correlated well
with troponin T levels only when CKMB was greater than 50 ng/ml (r=1.00). Small elevations of troponin T identifies minimal
cardiac necrosis and patients can benefit from early invasive therapy. 相似文献

Serum ferroxidase and albumin levels were determined in 98 patients of tubercuiosis, of whom 49 were freshly diagnosed, sputum
positive (group-I) & 49 were completely treated patients (group-II). Forty nine age and sex matched healthy individuals were
taken as controls. Mean±SD of serum ferroxidase and albumin levels in controls, group-I and group-II was found to be 864.35±106.35
IU/L & 3.91±0.234 g/dL, 1603.76±222.65 IU/L & 3.24±0.518 g/dL and 1001.78±201.63 IU/L & 3.82±0.43 g/dL, respectively. Serum
ferroxidase in group I was significantly higher as compared to controls and group-II (p<0.01). The decreased levels of serum
albumin in group I, as compared to control and group-II was statistically significant (p<0.01). Serum ferroxidase: albumin
ratio (Ferroxidase in International Unit per gram of albumin) in group I (50.47±10.36 IU/g) was significantly higher than
controls (22.22±3.3 IU/g), (p<0.001) while in group II it was significantly lower (26.72±7.18 IU/g, p<0.001) than group-I
and close to control values. Serum ferroxidase: albumin ratio (IU/g) can therefore be incorporated as a surrogate marker to
assist in diagnosis and prognosis of pulmonary tuberculosis. 相似文献

Generation of reactive oxygen species is an important factor in the development and maintenance of rheumatoid arthritis (RA)
in humans. This study was undertaken to investigate interplay among oxidants, antioxidants and pathogenesis of Rheumatoid
arthritis. Serum levels of lipid peroxides, nitric oxide, vitamin E and ratio of calcium/phosphorus in RA patients were determined
and compared with normal healthy controls. Significant increases in lipid peroxides (p<0.001) and nitric oxide (p<0.001) levels
were found in patients presenting with RA as compared to controls. Whereas significant decrease in vitamin E (P<0.001) and
calcium/phosphorus ratio (p<0.001) were found in Rheumatoid arthritis patients as compared to controls. Positive correlation
was found between lipid peroxides and nitric oxide as well as between vitamin E and calcium. While lipid peroxides and nitric
oxide were correlated negatively with vitamin E. whereas negative correlation was observed between MDA and Calcium/Phosphorus
ratio in patients with rheumatoid arthritis. Our findings suggest that there is a close association between bone loss and
oxidative threat in patients presenting with Rheumatoid arthritis. 相似文献

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

The present study demonstrates the incidence of increased lipid peroxidation and protein oxidation in both maternal and fetal
erythrocytes as markers of oxygen radical activity in different complications of pregnancy. In fetuses born after premature
rupture of membranes, lipid peroxidation was significantly elevated as indicated by increased malondialdehyde levels (p<0.05)
as compared to controls. Proteolytic activity in the erythrocytes of mothers in this group was also significantly high (p<0.01).
In patients delivered by lower segment cesarian section, lipid peroxidation and proteolytic activity in maternal erythrocytes
were significantly high (p<0.05 and p<0.001 respectively). In patients with prolonged second stage of labour, lipid peroxidation
and proteolytic activity in maternal erythrocytes was significantly higher than in controls (p<0.001 and p<0.05 respectively).
In this group, endogenous protein damage due to oxidative stress was significantly high both in the mother and the fetus (p<0.001
and p<0.05 respectively). 相似文献

In the present study, 58 diabetic patients (type II) comprising uncomplicated (27) and complicated (31) cases along with 38 healthy matched controls were investigated for glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1), glycosylated serum proteins (GSP) and serum lipid profile viz. triacylglycerol, total cholesterol, HDL-cholesterol (HDL-C), VLDL-C, LDL-C and their ratios. HbA1 and GSP were significantly elevated in diabetic group as a whole when compared with controls (p<0.01), but comparison of mean values of complicated and uncomplicated group revealed (though higher in complicated) that the difference between two groups was not statistically significant (p>0.05). Follow-up studies showed that while GSP levels reflect variations in blood glucose over a shorter period of 15 days, those of HbA1 do so for about 3 months. HbA1 correlated with fasting blood glucose (p<0.01), whereas GSP showed correlation with both fasting (p<0.01) and postprandial (p<0.05) blood glucose. Hypercholesterolemia and hypertriacylglycerolemia were observed (p<0.01) in both the groups. However no significant change was seen in HDL-C (p>0.05) even after accounting for sex in both the groups. Interestingly TC:HDL-C was elevated significantly (p<0.01) in the above groups. These findings seem to suggest that at the levels of hyperglycemia, hypercholesterolemia and hypertriacylglycerolemia observed, some patients are prone to develop complications earlier. 相似文献

Total thiol status of plasma, especially thiol groups over protein contributes maximum to the plasma antioxidant status of
the body. Serum protein thiols were found to be decreased in various disease conditions including chronic renal failure patients.
Only few studies determined the levels of urinary protein thiols in disease conditions. The current study was designed to
know the levels of urinary protein thiols in patients with different grades of proteinuria. The study was conducted on urine
of 40 healthy controls and 61 cases with proteinuria. Based on proteinuria cases were further divided into two groups; group
I - microproteinuria (150–300 mg protein/d), 32 cases, group II - frank proteinuria (>300 mg protein/d), 29 cases. Urinary
thiol levels were determined by spectrophotometric method using dithionitrobenzoic acid. A significant decrease (p<0.01) in
urinary thiol in group I and group II cases was observed in present study and this decrease was associated with proteinuria. 相似文献

Presence of oxidative stress in type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM) is well proved. Current study was undertaken to know the relation
between fasting plasma glucose (FPG) and copper along with antioxidants like total thiols and ceruloplasmin, and antioxidant
enzyme glutathione S transferase (GST). The study group consisted of a total of 201 subjects which included nondiabetic healthy
control subjects (n = 78) and diabetic patients (n = 123). Plasma total thiols, GST, copper and ceruloplasmin levels were
measured all the subjects using spectrophotometric methods and FPG levels were determined in clinical chemistry analyzer Hitachi
912. There was significant increase in FPG (P<0.001) and copper (P<0.001) and decrease in ceruloplasmin (P<0.001) and protein
thiols (P<0.001) in type 2 DM cases compared to healthy controls. There was no significant change in GST between type 2 DM
cases and controls. There was significant negative correlation of FPG with antioxidants like ceruloplasmin (r = −0.420, P<0.001)
and total thiols (r = −0.565, P<0.001). Protein thiols correlated positively with ceruloplasmin (r = 0.364, P<0.001). Our
study indicates possible increase in copper mediated generation of ROS leading to increased consumption of available antioxidants
in the body. 相似文献

Lipid peroxidation products and antioxidants were estimated in either blood, serum or erythrocytes of 25 cases of early and 25 of advanced senile (50–60 years) cataract and 30 persons of age matched healthy controls. Serum lipid peroxidation products (as malondialdehyde) were significantly higher in patients with early senile (0.25±0.05 μm/dl, P<0.05) and advanced senile cataract (0.29±0.05 μm/dl, P<0.001) as compared to healthy controls (0.22±0.07 μm/dl). Erythrocyte superoxide dismutase levels were lower in patients with early senile (730±60.5 units/gm Hb) and significantly lower in advanced senile (712±50.2 units/gm Hb, P<0.05) cataract than those in healthy controls (767±59.5 units/gm Hb). Serum α-tocopherol was significantly lower (P<0.05) in only advanced senile cataract (0.69±0.08 mg/dl) but not in early senile cataract (0.75±0.08 mg/dl) when compared with healthy controls (0.75±0.09 mg/dl). There was no significant difference in the erythrocyte concentration of reduced glutathione and serum levels of total proteins, β-carotene, vitamin A, ascorbic acid, calcium, magnesium and zinc. 相似文献

Hyperglycemia and dyslipidemia in diabetes mellitus induce increased lipid peroxidation and peroxyl radical formation, an
important mechanism in genesis of microangiopathy. We took up a study on oxidative stress, measured by plasma MDA and antioxidant
vitamin status in type − 2 DM patients with and without retinopathy and compared them with a control non-diabetic group. Lipid
peroxidation marker MDA was significantly elevated (p < 0.001) in both the diabetic groups whereas, serum vitamin E and vitamin
C registered a significant fall (p<0.001) as compared to controls. Our correlation study revealed a significant positive association
between plasma MDA with both fasting and 2hr post prandial plasma glucose (r=0.81, p < 0.001, r=0.92, p <0.001) suggesting
the role of hyperglycemia in free radical production. Plasma MDA also depicted significant positive relation (p< 0.001) with
all lipid parameters except serum HDLc pointing the role of dyslipidemia towards lipid peroxidation. Plasma MDA level was
also found to be negatively correlated with both the vitamins (p<0.001, p<0.001) in the study group explaining their protective
consumption in the oxidative process prevailing in diabetic retinopathy. 相似文献

Coronary artery disease is a major cause of morbidity and has various risk factors. Lipid profile i.e. low HDL-cholesterol,
high LDL cholesterol, high total cholesterol, high triglycerides playing important role in its causation. Recently interest
has been shown in the oxidized fraction of LDL as one of the risk factors. In the present study 60 age and sex matched normal
healthy individuals were taken as controls and 60 patients of CAD were taken. Cholesterol was measured by enzymatic method,
HDL cholesterol by phosphotungstate precipitation method. Serum levels of LDL fraction of cholesterol was measured by a new
and simpler method of precipitation. Result was expressed as mol/L of diene conjugates. It was observed that LDL cholesterol,
VLDL cholesterol, total cholesterol, total cholesterol: HDL cholesterol, LDL cholesterol: HDL cholesterol were significantly
raised and HDL cholesterol was significantly low in patients. (p<0.001). Though HDL cholesterol was significantly raised in
females as compared to males in both the groups (p<0.001). Serum level of total cholesterol, oxidized LDL:HDL cholesterol
were also raised significantly (p<0.05). The level of oxidized LDL showed an increasing trend in patients. 相似文献

The levels of norepinephrine (NE), dopamine (DA) serotonin (5-HT) and its metabolite 5-hydroxyindole acetic acid (5-HIAA)
have been determined in the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) of normal (n=25) and suicidal attempt cases (n=30). A significant decrease
in the level of NE (p<0.01), 5-HT(p<0.001) and 5-HIAA (p<0.001) in the CSF of suicide attempt cases were observed as compared
to normal controls. It is concluded that CSF 5-HIAA level which is drastically depleted may be used as an early biochemical
indicator of suicidal attempt so that it may be treated by the drugs which can enhance the suppressed neurotransmitter activity. 相似文献

The objective of the study was to estimate the serum concentrations of oxidative stress markers-lipid hydroperoxide (MDA-Malondialdehyde),
lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), nitrite; and ferric reducing antioxidant power (FRAP) — a measure of total antioxidant capacity
in serum. Serum nitrite levels were high in fertile women than in infertile women (p<0.001), whereas MDA was high in infertile
women than in fertile group (p<0.018). On classifying the entire group of women with infertility based on the etiology, serum
MDA and LDH levels were higher in women with infertility due to unexplained factor than in women with other causes contributing
to infertility compared to controls (p<0.001, p<0.02). A positive correlation among serum prolactin and nitrite suggested
that hyperprolactinemia could contribute to infertility by inducing oxidative damage. Serum FRAP levels showed no significant
difference in the groups studied. Lipid peroxidation was high in women with unexplained infertility which may be due to hyperprolactinemia. 相似文献
