[Active oxygen species and asbestos toxicity].
It has been demonstrated that active oxygen species is involved in inflammation, immunologic disorders, cancer, etc. Along this line, biological effects of asbestos have been investigated. The results of these studies can be classified into two groups. The first is based on researches on hydroxy radical, the most active oxygen species which originates through the catalytic reaction of asbestos ...
متن کاملEvidence supporting a role for active oxygen species in asbestos-induced toxicity and lung disease.
Asbestos is an important occupational and environmental toxicant that affects several cell types in the respiratory tract. In an effort to understand how asbestos causes cell injury and/or altered proliferation and differentiation of cells, this laboratory has focused on reactive oxygen species as mediators of asbestos-induced biological effects. A compendium of experimental results reported by...
متن کاملRole of Caspases and Reactive Oxygen Species in Rose Bengal-Induced Toxicity in Melanoma Cells
Objective We have previously shown that Rose Bengal (RB) alone, not as a photosensitiser, could induce apoptotic- and non-apoptotic cell death in different melanoma cell lines. To clarify RB-induced toxicity mechanisms, role of caspases and reactive oxygen specious (ROS) were studied in melanoma cells. Material and Methods Human melanoma cell lines, Me 4405 and Sk-Mel-28 were cultured in DM...
متن کاملOxygen radicals and asbestos carcinogenesis.
Asbestos fibers have been shown to generate reactive oxygen species using a variety of in vitro assays. It is hypothesized that these highly reactive metabolites mediate the development of malignant mesothelioma induced by asbestos fibers. DNA is a potential target of oxidant attack. Adaptive responses to oxidant injury have been described during exposure of mesothelial cells to asbestos fibers...
متن کاملO 22: Reactive Oxygen Species and Epilepsy
Seizure activity has been proposed to result in the generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS), which then contribute to seizure-induced neuronal damage and eventually cell death. Although the mechanisms of seizure-induced ROS generation are unclear, mitochondria and cellular calcium overload have been proposed to have a crucial role. We aim to determine the sources of seizure-induced ROS and ...
