Free-radical-mediated DNA binding.
Free-radical metabolites can be generated metabolically by a one-electron reductase-catalyzed reaction or a "peroxidase" catalyzed oxidation or by photoactivation of a wide variety of aromatic xenobiotics. Radicals may also be generated during lipid peroxidation. Some radicals can react with DNA or bind covalently or noncovalently as a dismutation product or as a dimer, trimer or polymeric prod...
متن کاملFree radical-mediated activation of hydrazine derivatives.
Hydrazines are known to undergo oxidative activation in several enzymatic systems in vitro. Free radicals or carbonium ions have been proposed as active intermediates during such activation. The toxic effects elicited by hydrazines have also been linked to free radical-mediated activation. In this report, we have reviewed the identification of organic free radicals from hydrazines by direct ESR...
متن کاملFree radical scavenging, DNA protection, and inhibition of lipid peroxidation mediated by uric acid.
Uric acid (UA) has been proposed to be the dominant antioxidant in birds. The objective of this study was to investigate the quenching effect of varying concentrations of UA, including those found in avian plasma, on specific reactive oxygen species (ROS) and to determine the ability of UA to protect DNA and cellular membranes from ROS-mediated damage. Hydroxyl (OH) and superoxide (O2-) radical...
متن کاملEdaravone, a Synthetic Free Radical Scavenger, Enhances Alteplase-Mediated Thrombolysis
The combination of alteplase, a recombinant tissue plasminogen activator, and edaravone, an antioxidant, reportedly enhances recanalization after acute ischemic stroke. We examined the influence of edaravone on the thrombolytic efficacy of alteplase by measuring thrombolysis using a newly developed microchip-based flow-chamber assay. Rat models of embolic cerebral ischemia were treated with eit...
متن کاملInterleukin-10-mediated inhibition of free radical generation in macrophages.
Interleukin-10 (IL-10) is a pleiotropic cytokine that controls inflammatory processes by suppressing the production of proinflammatory cytokines that are known to be transcriptionally regulated by nuclear factor-kappaB (NF-kappaB). Although still controversial, IL-10 has been shown to inhibit NF-kappaB activation through a process that involves proteolytic degradation of inhibitory subunit Ikap...
