Immune-Endocrine Alterations During Preeclampsia
Preeclampsia is a pregnancy-related disorder exclusive to human beings, and represents a public health problem worldwide whose etiology is still unknown. As diverse studies have reported, an understanding of the onset and course of this disorder depends on the knowledge about the interaction between the physiological systems of the organism, such as the immune, vascular and endocrine systems. R...
متن کاملAnalyses of antioxidant status and nucleotide alterations in genes encoding antioxidant enzymes in patients with benign and malignant thyroid disorders
BACKGROUND Synthesis of thyroid hormones and regulation of their metabolism involve free radicals that may affect redox balance in the body. Thyroid disorders causing variations in the levels of thyroid hormones may alter cellular oxidative stress. The aim of this study was to measure the antioxidant activities and biomarkers of oxidative stress in serum and red blood cells (RBC) of patients wi...
متن کاملAntioxidant activity and lipid peroxidation in preeclampsia.
BACKGROUND Epidemiologic studies demonstrate a relation between preeclampsia and an increased risk of future maternal coronary heart disease. The pathophysiology of the underlying mechanism is unknown. Disorders of lipoprotein metabolism may contribute to endothelial dysfunction. Oxidative stress and decreased antioxidant defense enhances free radical-mediated membrane lipid peroxidation and po...
متن کاملBioaccumulation, alterations of metallothionein, and antioxidant enzymes in the mullet Mugil cephalus exposed to hexavalent chromium
A laboratory experiment was conducted to determine hexavalent chromium (Cr) accumulation in the mullet and investigate Cr toxicity using a panel of biomarkers including metallothioneins (MTs), glutathione (GSH), glutathione S-transferase (GST), and superoxide dismutases (SODs) for 4 weeks. Cr bioaccumulation in all tissues, except muscle, was consistently timeand dose-dependent. The accumulatio...
متن کاملEffect of tempol, a synthetic antioxidant, on renal complications of L-NAME induced preeclampsia in rat
Introduction: It has been suggested that oxidative stress has a crucial role in the pathophysiology of preeclampsia. In the present study, the effect of tempol, a synthetic antioxidant, on kidney injuries and oxidative stress was investigated in an experimental model of preeclampsia in rats. Methods: Preeclampsia was induced by oral administration of L-NAME to the rats on the day 10 of pregnanc...
