The study was conducted to find out the extent of lipid peroxidation and antioxidant status in ischemic stroke patients (ISPs)
with and without diabetes. Malondialdehyde (MDA) was studied as a marker of lipid peroxidation. Glutathione (GSH), uric acid
and ceruloplasmin were estimated to study the antioxidant potential of ISPs. Significantly higher levels of MDA were found
in both the groups of ISPs and the increase in MDA was more in ISPs without diabetes. GSH levels were decreased significantly
in both the groups of ISPs and maximum decline was found in ISPs with diabetes. Uric acid levels were significantly increased
in both the groups of ISPs. Ceruloplasmin levels were increased significantly in ISPs without diabetes, whereas its levels
were slightly decreased in ISPs with diabetes. A negative correlation was found between MDA and the antioxidants GSH, uric
acid and ceruloplasmin in ISPs with diabetes. This study suggests that there is an association between ischemic stroke and
increased oxidative stress and the antioxidant potential is impaired in both the groups of ISPs with and without diabetes. 相似文献

Habitual consumption of moderate amounts of fish is associated with reduced mortality from coronary heart disease. However
the beneficial effects of fish enriched diet seem contradictory, due to the susceptibility of the PUFAs in them to oxidation.
It is also acclaimed that vegetarians in general, have a lower serum total cholesterol and LDL-cholesterol and a better antioxidant
status. This contradiction was the basis for the study, where the validity of the above finding was tested in a general population
consuming a vegetarian or predominantly fish diet as a regular dietary habit. The oxidant status and the lipid profile of
23 vegetarians and 22 fish eaters was studied by estimating the plasma lipid peroxides measured as malondialdehyde (MDA) and
the lipid parameters viz. Total Cholesterol (TC), HDL-Cholesterol (HDL-C) and triglycerides (TG). Statistical analysis was
carried out to compare the MDA values and the lipemic status between the two groups. MDA was also correlated with the various
lipid indices among the study groups. None of the compared and correlated values was statistically significant, although certain
altered trends were seen. From this study, it may be concluded that oxidant status and lipid profile does not vary significantly
in the two groups, suggesting that neither a vegetarian diet nor a fish diet has a definite benefit over the other. 相似文献

The changes in the erythrocyte lipid peroxidation products (MDA), levels of glutathione (GSH), ascorbic acid and plasma vitamin
E (non enzymatic antioxidant parameters) and activities of antioxidant enzymes superoxide dismutase (SOD), glutathione peroxidase
(GPX), catalase in erythrocytes and plasma glutathione - S - transferase (GST) activity were estimated in patients with rheumatoid
arthritis. This work was undertaken to assess oxidative stress and anti oxidant status in patients with rheumatoid arthritis.
It was observed that there was a significant increase in erythrocyte MDA levels, activities of SOD, GPX, plasma GST and a significant decrease in erythrocyte GSH, ascorbic acid, plasma vitamin E levels and catalse activity in
patients with rheumatoid arthritis when compared to controls. The results of our study suggests higher oxygen free radical
production, evidenced by increased MDA and decreased GSH, ascorbic acid, vitamin E and Catalase activity, support to the oxidative
stress in rheumatoid arthritis. The increased activities of antioxidant enzymes may be a compensatory regulation in response
to increased oxidative stress. 相似文献

A disturbance in the antioxidant defense system including α-tocopherol, ascorbic acid and reduced glutahtione metabolism due
to free radical induced oxidative injury has been implicated in various neuro-psychiatric disorders. The roles of these antioxidants,
changes in their blood levels and correlation with oxidative stress were studied in a common psychiatric illness Schizophrenia.
Fifty-eight subjects of either sex ranging in age from 18–60 years divided into two age groups (≤40 and >40 years) diagnosed
for schizophrenia, and forty age and sex-matched normal subjects as controls were included in the study. Blood samples were
analyzed for malondialdehyde (MDA), α-tocopherol, total ascorbic acid (TAA), dehydro ascorbic acid (DHAA), reduced ascorbic
acid (RAA), leucocyte ascorbic acid (LAA) and reduced glutathione (GSH). A decrease in the levels of α-tocopherol, total ascorbic
acid and reduced glutathione was found in schizophrenics compared to normal controls. Further a significant rise in oxidative
stress and decreased antioxidant status was observed in the chronic stage of schizophrenia as compared to those in acute condition.
A significant rise in dehydroascorbic acid with concomitant fall in reduced ascorbic acid suggests scavenging action of ascorbic
acid and its utilization with increased oxidative stress as indicated by high blood malondialdehyde levels. Leucocyte ascorbic
acid, a better index of ascorbic acid status was also found to be reduced in schizophrenics, suggesting depletion of body
stores of ascorbic acid and the condition worsened with advancing age. 相似文献

Reactive oxygen species (ROS) formed in various metabolic reactions cause unlimited damage by attacking and oxidizing the macromolecules. An arsenal of antioxidant substances neutralizes these ROS at various sites of their metabolic cascade, and if disequilibrium exists between the pro and antioxidant system, oxidative stress persists. The present study was undertaken in schizophrenia, to highlight the response and role of some endogenous antioxidants viz. reduced glutathione (GSH), bilirubin, total proteins, albumin and uric acid in scavenging the ROS. The effect of severity of disease, age factor, and substance abuse was also studied. In all, 50 schizophrenics and 50 age and sex-matched controls were enrolled in the present study. Fasting blood samples were drawn for estimating malondialdehyde (MDA), GSH, bilirubin, total proteins, albumin and uric acid in both the groups. The results were statistically analyzed by Z-test and correlated using correlation coefficient (r). The study shows reduction in MDA levels and decline in the level of endogenous antioxidants, but within the normal range. Chronic schizophrenics were at a higher risk of oxidative stress and age and substance abuse seems to worsen the situation. 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

Evidence of increased oxidative stress in patients of osteoarthritis in comparison with healthy control subjects was investigated
by measuring the thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS), vitamin C, reduced glutathione (GSH) and the activities
of superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase and glutathione peroxidase (GPx) in erythrocytes. It was observed that osteoarthritis
patients were more susceptible to oxidative damage than controls as evident from increased TBARS and decreased ascorbic acid,
GSH, catalase and GPx in erythrocytes. Significant increase in SOD activity found in patients might be an adaptive response.
With the understanding of the role of antioxidants in arthritis, it is becoming increasingly clear that these agents seem
to be beneficial in osteoarthritis. 相似文献

Circadian periodicity of plasma lipid peroxides and serum ascorbic acid and uric acid levels were studied in one hundred renal stone formers (55 women and 45 men; age 20–60 years) and 50 clinically healthy volunteers (21 women and 29 men; age 21–45 years) with diurnal activity from 06:00 to 22:00 and nocturnal rest. A marked circadian variation was demonstrated by population-mean-cosinor for all studied variables in stone formers and healthy subjects. By comparison to the healthy controls, parameter tests indicate that the stone formers had a higher MESOR (±SE) of MDA (2.90 ± 0.03 vs. 2.28 ± 0.06; F = 94.929, p < 0.001), a lower MESOR of serum ascorbic acid (0.722 ± 0.010 vs. 0.839 ± 0.10; F = 32.083, p < 0.001), and a similar MESOR of serum uric acid. Furthermore, the patients also differed from the healthy subjects in terms of their circadian amplitude and acrophase (tested jointly) of all three variables (p < 0.001). The demonstration herein of a circadian rhythm in MDA, serum ascorbic and uric acid suggests that these variables could also serve as markers to optimize the timing of treatment and to assess the patient’s response to treatment for further management. 相似文献

Elevated free radical generation in inflamed joints and impaired antioxidant system has been implicated in rheumatoid arthritis
(RA). Green tea extracts (GTE) have been shown to reduce inflammation in inflammatory arthritis murine model. This study investigates
possible mechanisms by which vitamin C and GTE protect joints in RA rat model. This study included forty adult male rats that
were divided into four groups (10 rats each); control group, collagen II induced RA group (CII), CII treated with vitamin
C (CII + Vit C) and CII treated with GTE (CII + GTE) in physiology laboratory, Assiut University, Egypt. After 45 days of
treatment, plasma levels of lipid peroxides (LPO), nitric oxide (NO), ceruloplasmin (CP), superoxide dismutase (SOD), uric
acid (UA) and glutathione (GSH) were detected using colorimetric methods, PGE2 using ELISA and copper (Cu) and zinc (Zn) using spectrometer. In CII group, levels of LPO, NO, PGE2, UA, CP, Cu were higher while SOD, GSH, Zn were lower than controls. In groups treated with vitamin C and GTE, levels of
SOD, GSH were increased while levels of LPO, NO, PGE2, Cu, CP were decreased compared with CII group. Levels of UA were decreased and Zn increased in GTE treated group compared
with CII group. GTE treated group showed higher Zn and low Cu levels compared with vitamin C treated group. This study suggests
proper GTE and vitamin C intake may effectively normalize the impaired oxidant/antioxidant system and delaying complication
of RA. 相似文献

A glutathione redox cycle is a major antioxidant defense system for the detoxification of reactive oxygen species within erythrocytes.
Reactive oxygen species such as superoxide anions, hydrogen peroxide and hydroxyl radicals are generated as a host defense
mechanism for killing of engulfed Leishmania donovani, a causative agent of visceral leishmaniasis, are capable of damaging
lipids and other biomolecules when produced in excess. Erythrocytes are most vulnerable to Reactive oxygen species. In present
study we aimed to evaluate erythrocyte reduced glutathione (GSH) levels as an antioxidant and erythrocyte malondialdehyde
(MDA) as a marker of lipid peroxidation. The study included twenty-five Visceral leishmaniasis patients and they were followed
up after their complete chemotherapy with antileishmanial drugs (sodium stibogluconate) for 30 days. Forty six age and sex
matched healthy individuals were taken as controls. GSH levels in erythrocytes of visceral leishmaniasis patients were increased
in spite of significant increased erythrocyte MDA as compared to controls. Whereas erythrocyte GSH and MDA levels of follow
up patients were decreased as compared to patients before treatment groups. We concluded that visceral leishmaniasis patients
are in oxidative stress which most likely induces the endogenous antioxidant such as GSH or its poor utilization by cells. 相似文献

This study confirms the fact that in different respiratory disorders, the status of plasma oxidants and antioxidants shifts
from normal. The status of oxidants in plasma as represented by malondialdehyde (MDA) levels increased significantly in the
conditions of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), emphysema, bronchiectasis and bronchial asthma. The two vitamin
antioxidants vitamin C and vitamin E showed decreased levels than in controls. In patients with COPD the endogenous antioxidant
viz. reduced glutathione (GSH) estimated from whole blood was comparable to that of control group, whereas in patients with
emphysema, bronchiectasis and bronchial asthma, GSH concentration was increased to that of control group. The activity of
enzyme superoxide dismutase (SOD) was significantly decreased in all study groups. Pulmonary function tests were found to
have no correlation with MDA and antioxidants 相似文献

Reactive oxygen species and other free radicals are known to be the mediators of phenotypic and genotypic changes that lead
from mutation to neoplasia. There are some primary antioxidants such as glutathione peroxidase (GPx), glutathione S-transferases
(GSTs) and reduced glutathione, which protect against callular and molecular damage caused by the reactive oxygen metabolites
(ROMs). The present study was conducted to determine the level of malondialdehyde (MDA), as an index of lipid peroxidation,
along with the GPx, GSTs activities and level of reduced glutathione in 45 prostate cancer (PC) patients, 55 benign prostate
hyperplasia (BPH) patients as compared to the controls. Significant higher levels of MDA and GSTs activities in the serum,
(P<0.005) and significant lower levels of reduced GSH concentration and GPx activity in blood haemolysates (P<0.05) of PC and BPH patients were observed as compared to the controls. The relatively higher GSTs activity and low level
of reduced GSH may be due to the response of increased reactive oxygen metabolites production in the blood. The higher MDA
and lower GPx activities may be inadequate to detoxify high levels of H2O2 into H2O leading to the formation of the*OH radical followed by MDA. This result hypothesizes that oxidant-antioxidant imbalance may be one of the major factor responsible
for the development of prostate cancer and benign prostate hyperplasia. 相似文献

Uric acid an endogenous aqueous antioxidant in normal humans is present in much higher concentrations than vitamin C and has
been known to cover 2/3rd of the free radical scavenging capacity in plasma. In the present study average uric acid levels of patients of rheumatoid
arthritis were found to be close to the normal individuals. A unique feature was observed after classifying the patients on
the basis of the duration of suffering, the patients having longer duration of disease had least uric acid levels as compared
to those suffering from relatively lesser period, similar trend was observed in the ascorbic acid estimations. The decline
in uric acid values with progression of the disease was much more than what was observed in case of ascorbic acid suggesting
the significant role of uric acid in scavenging of free radicals. Too much lowering of Uric Acid should be checked and vitamin
C should be supplemented in diet for maintaining the balance between pro oxidant and antioxidant forces to check pro oxidant
insult in rheumatoid arthritis. 相似文献

Oxidative stress is implicated in the etiopathogenesis of a variety of human diseases. Therefore, in the present study, erythrocyte
lipid peroxidation, percentage hemolysis, antioxidant enzymes viz., glutathione reductase, glutathione peroxidase, superoxide
dismutase and plasma antioxidants viz., ceruloplasmin, vitamins A,E and C have been determined in 19 patients with tubercular
meningitis (TBM) and 50 normals. Six patients who were treated with antibiotics were considered for the follow up. The statistical
analysis was carried out by Mann Whitney U test and Wilcoxon rank sum test. Lipid peroxidation (P<0.02), percentage hemolysis
(P<0.001) and plasma ceruloplasmin (P<0.0001) of TBM patients were significantly higher, whereas erythrocyte glutathione reductase
(P<0.05) and plasma antioxidant vitamins A, E and C (P<0.01, P<0.05 respectively) were significantly lower than those of the
controls. In the follow up patients the glutathione reductase and catalase levels were significantly high (P<0.05) compared
to their pre-treated condition. Vitamin C and E levels have attained normal range. This study indicated that the blood antioxidant
status of TBM patients which was low compared to controls improved after treatment, suggesting the role of free radicals in
TBM. 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

Thiamine or vitamin B1 is a well known coenzyme and nutrient necessary for the assembly and right functioning of several enzymes involved in the energy metabolism. The present study evaluates oxidative stress and prevalence of neurodegenerative conditions in the brain following TD. The study was carried out on mice (Musmusculus) in three groups, namely control and thiamine-deficient group for 8 (TD 8) and 10 (TD 10) days. Lipid peroxidation was determined in terms of reduced glutathione (GSH) and thiobarbituric acid reactive substance (TBARS). The level of antioxidant enzymes such as catalase (CAT), glutathione reductase, glutathione peroxidase (GPx), superoxide dismutase (SOD) and glutathione transferase (GST) were measured along with histopathological studies in all the groups. There was significant increase in the TBARS levels in group II (TD 8) and group III (TD 10) animals in comparison to controls (Group I). The GSH levels were found to be lower in both the treated groups. The level of antioxidant enzymes CAT (p < 0.001), glutathione reductase (p < 0.001), GPx (p < 0.001), SOD (p < 0.0001) were found to be significantly reduced in group III (TD 10) in comparison to controls. Histopathological studies showed moderated to extensive neuronal loss in group II and group III in comparison to control group. The increase in LPO and reduction in enzymes CAT, glutathione reductase, GPx, SOD, and GST following TD suggests mitochondrial dysfunction, neuronal loss acute oxidative stress that may impair the functioning of the brain along with the rise of neurodegenerative conditions in the affected animals. 相似文献

Oxidative stress contributes to the cascade, leading to dopamine cell degeneration in Parkinson’s disease. However, oxidative
stress is intimately linked to other components of the degenerative process, such as mitochondrial dysfunction, excitotoxicity,
nitric oxide toxicity and inflammation. It is therefore difficult to determine whether oxidative stress leads to or is a consequence
of, these events. Oxidative stress was assessed by estimating lipid peroxidation product in the form of thiobarbituric acid
reactive substances, nitric oxide in the form of nitrite & nitrate. Enzymatic antioxidants in the form of superoxide dismutase,
glutathione peroxidase, catalase, ceruloplasmin and non enzymatic antioxidant vitamins e.g. vitamin E and C in either serum
or plasma or erythrocyte in 40 patients of Parkinson’s disease in the age group 40–80 years. Trace elements e.g. copper, zinc
and selenium were also estimated. Plasma thiobarbituric acid reactive substances and nitric oxide levels were Significantly
high but superoxide dismutase, glutathione peroxidase, catalase, ceruloplasmin, vitamin-E, vitamin-C, copper, zinc and selenium
levels were significantly low in Parkinson’s disease when compared with control subjects. Present study showed that elevated
oxidative stress may be playing a role in dopaminergic neuronal loss in substentia nigra pars compacta and involved in pathogenesis
of the Parkinson’s disease. 相似文献

This study evaluated the extent of oxidative stress by measuring malondialdehyde and ascorbic acid in the seminal plasma of
human subjects with different fertility potential. Semen samples from 148 subjects were evaluated (48 normozoospermics, 34
oligoasthenoteratozoospermics, 34 asthenoteratozoospermics and 32 azoospermics). malondialdehyde level was found to be significantly
higher in the abnormal groups (oligoasthenoterato and asthenoterato-zoospermics) than normozoospermics (P < 0.01). Negative
correlation was also found between malondialdehyde level, sperm concentration, sperm motility and sperm morphology. Level
of ascorbic acid was found to be significantly higher in normozoospermics than other abnormal groups (P < 0.01). It was found
to be correlated positively with all seminogram parameters and negatively with malondialdehyde level. The study revealed that,
excess lipid peroxidation reflected by high malondialdehyde level with reduced ascorbic acid in human seminal plasma is associated
with poor semen quality where as ascorbic acid content has positive correlation with fertility potential. 相似文献

Urine is a proven source of metabolite biomarkers and has the potential to be a rapid, noninvasive, inexpensive, and efficient diagnostic tool for various human diseases. Despite these advantages, urine is an under-investigated source of biomarkers for multiple sclerosis (MS). The objective was to investigate the level of some urinary metabolites (urea, uric acid and hippuric acid) in patients with MS and correlate their levels to the severity of the disease, MS subtypes and MS treatment. The urine samples were collected from 73 MS patients-48 with RRMS and 25 with SPMS- and age matched 75 healthy controls. The values of urinary urea, uric acid and hippuric acid in MS patients were significantly decreased, and these metabolites in SPMS pattern showed significantly decrease than RRMS pattern. Also showed significant inverse correlation with expanded disability status scale and number of relapses. Accordingly, they may act as a potential urinary biomarkers for MS, and correlate to disease progression. 相似文献
