Free radical metabolite of uric acid.
Uric acid has previously been shown to act as a water-soluble antioxidant. Although the antioxidant activity of uric acid has been attributed to its ability to scavenge free radicals, the one-electron uric acid oxidation product of such a scavenging reaction has not been detected. It order to determine whether a free radical metabolite of uric acid could be formed via one-electron redox process...
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 کاملTuna extract reduces serum uric acid in gout-free subjects with insignificantly high serum uric acid: A randomized controlled trial.
Long-term reduction of serum urate levels is vital in the treatment of gout. However, it is difficult to convince gout-free individuals of the necessity of treatment as few appropriate over-the-counter remedies and dietary supplements are available. Therefore, the present study aimed to investigate the antihyperuricemic efficacy and safety of a tuna extract containing the imidazole compounds to...
متن کاملCompression, supramolecular organization and free radical polymerization of ethylene gas
At low pressure, ethylene gas consists of single translating and rotating molecules and behaves as an ideal gas. With decrease of free volume by compression, various rotating supramolecular particles are formed, which require less space for the movement: molecular pairs, bimolecules and oligomolecules. The appearance of a new kind of particles is manifested as a phase transition of the second o...
متن کاملFree Radical Scavenging Principles of Salvia reuterana Boiss. Aerial Parts
Salvia reuterana Bioss. is an aromatic perennial plant traditionally used for its anxiolytic and sedative properties. In the present study, various fractions and essential oil of S. reuterana aerial parts were investigated to find its free radical scavenging principles. Hydroalcoholic fraction with IC50 value of 112.6 ±3.2 μg ml-1 in DPPH assay demonstrated the highest free radical scavenging a...
