Superoxide dismutase mimetics.

In this review we describe the potential role(s) of superoxide in inflammatory disorders.

Extracellular Superoxide Dismutase

Extracellular-superoxide dismutase is a tetrameric copper-containing glycoprotein that previously has been demonstrated to be the major superoxide dismutase of human extracellular fluids. The occurrence of this enzyme in various human tissues that were removed from two accidental death victims and in 19 different human cultured cell lines was determined. All investigated tissues were found to c...

Molecular immunocytochemistry of the CuZn superoxide dismutase in rat hepatocytes

The distribution of CuZn superoxide dismutase (SOD) molecules in subcellular organelles in rat liver hepatocytes was studied using integrated biochemical, stereological, and quantitative immunocytochemical techniques. A known concentration of purified CuZn SOD in 10% gelatin was embedded alongside the liver tissue for the calculation of CuZn SOD concentrations in hepatocyte organelles and total...

Manganese Superoxide Dismutase (MnSOD)

2 Introduction 3 Phylogenetic distribution and subcellular localization 3 Kinetics and mechanism 3 Molecular and chemical structure 5 Biological significance 8 Summary 9 References 10 Abstract Manganese superoxide dismutase (MnSOD) is the primary antioxidant enzyme that protects cells from oxidative stress by catalyzing dismutation of superoxide (O2 ) to hydrogen peroxide and oxygen in the mito...
