Expression of glutathione, glutathione peroxidase and glutathione S-transferase pi in canine mammary tumors
BACKGROUND Glutathione (GSH) is one of the most important agents of the antioxidant defense system of the cell because, in conjunction with the enzymes glutathione peroxidase (GSH-Px) and glutathione S transferase pi (GSTpi), it plays a central role in the detoxification and biotransformation of chemotherapeutic drugs. This study evaluated the expression of GSH and the GSH-Px and GSTpi enzymes ...
متن کاملA trifunctional enzyme with glutathione S-transferase, glutathione peroxidase and superoxide dismutase activity.
Superoxide dismutase (SOD), glutathione peroxidase (GPX), glutathione S-transferase (GST) and glutathione reductase (GR) play crucial roles in balancing the production and decomposition of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in living organisms. These enzymes act cooperatively and synergistically to scavenge ROS, as not one of them can singlehandedly clear all forms of ROS. In order to imitate the sy...
متن کاملMicrosomal glutathione S-transferase A1-1 with glutathione peroxidase activity from sheep liver: molecular cloning, expression and characterization.
A 25 kDa subunit of glutathione S-transferase (GST) from sheep liver microsomes (microsomal GSTA1-1) with a significant selenium-independent glutathione peroxidase activity has been isolated and characterized. Several analytical criteria, including EDTA stripping, protease protection assay and extraction with alkaline Na(2)CO(3), indicate that the microsomal GSTA1-1 is associated with the inner...
متن کاملRegional distribution of glutathione peroxidase and Glutathione-S-transferase in adult and premature human retinas.
The activities of glutathione peroxidase (GSH-Px) and glutathione-S-transferase (GSH-S-tase) were investigated in adult and premature human retinas. The measurements were done in the vascular and avascular regions of premature retinas at gestational age of 22-33 weeks and in the central, mid-peripheral, and far peripheral regions of mature retinas from the age of 1 month to 73 years. Among the ...
متن کاملErectile Dysfunction Drugs and Protein Expression of Glutathione S- transferase and Glutathione Peroxidase in the Liver of Male Rats
Erectile dysfunction (ED) drugs have been used for treatment of erectile dysfunction which affects the lives of approximately 300 million men worldwide. It is well known that the cytosolic glutathione Stransferase (GST) and glutathione metabolizing enzymes play an important role in the detoxification of many endogenous and exogenous compounds. Therefore, the present study aims at investigating ...
