Essential fatty acids: biochemistry, physiology and pathology.
Essential fatty acids (EFAs), linoleic acid (LA), and alpha-linolenic acid (ALA) are essential for humans, and are freely available in the diet. Hence, EFA deficiency is extremely rare in humans. To derive the full benefits of EFAs, they need to be metabolized to their respective long-chain metabolites, i.e., dihomo-gamma-linolenic acid (DGLA), and arachidonic acid (AA) from LA; and eicosapenta...
متن کاملTissue responses to hyperoxia. Biochemistry and pathology.
An animal model was established to study the toxic effects of hyperoxia and the consequent changes in intracellular antioxidant status. Superoxide dismutase, catalase and glutathione peroxidase activities were measured in erythrocytes, liver and lung, in addition to cellular glutathione concentrations and its associated metabolism. Overt cellular damage was assessed biochemically by measurement...
متن کاملMultiple system degeneration with glutamate dehydrogenase deficiency: pathology and biochemistry.
The neuropathological findings in a patient with antemortem diagnosis of olivopontocerebellar atrophy (OPCA) and reduced leucocytic glutamate dehydrogenase (GDH) activity included cerebellar cortical degeneration, most marked in the superior vermis, mild atrophy of the pons and the inferior olivary nucleus, marked reduction of anterior horn cells at all levels and gliosis in both lateral column...
متن کاملBiochemistry and pathology of radical-mediated protein oxidation.
Radical-mediated damage to proteins may be initiated by electron leakage, metal-ion-dependent reactions and autoxidation of lipids and sugars. The consequent protein oxidation is O2-dependent, and involves several propagating radicals, notably alkoxyl radicals. Its products include several categories of reactive species, and a range of stable products whose chemistry is currently being elucidat...
متن کاملIts Role on B and T Cell Interleukin 6 ( IL - 6 ) : The Biochemistry and Development
The inductiott of innuute response requires the interadiort atnong ittttttutroco,ilpetent cells, accessory tnolecules and cytokines. Of these cytokines, IL-6, a 26 kD potypeptide, plays a najor role on the innune re.\ponse. The roles of this cytokine on the B and T cell developntent are reviewed brieJly. In the presence of other cytokines, IL-6 act.s on antige,t dependent-tertninal dffirentiati...
