Purified human serum PON1 does not protect LDL against oxidation in the in vitro assays initiated with copper or AAPH.
Purified serum paraoxonase (PON1) had been shown to attenuate the oxidation of LDL in vitro. We critically reevaluated the antioxidant properties of serum PON1 in the in vitro assays initiated with copper or the free radical generator 2,2'-azobis-2-amidinopropane hydrochloride (AAPH). The antioxidant activity of different purified PON1 preparations did not correlate with their arylesterase (AE)...
متن کاملAccumulation of zinc in human atherosclerotic lesions correlates with calcium levels but does not protect against protein oxidation.
OBJECTIVE Oxidized lipids and proteins, as well as decreased antioxidant levels, have been detected in human atherosclerotic lesions, with oxidation catalyzed by iron and copper postulated to contribute to lesion development. Zinc has been postulated to displace iron from critical sites and thereby protect against damage. In this study, metal ion and protein oxidation levels were quantified in ...
متن کاملCalcium does not protect against colorectal neoplasia.
Calcium could decrease risk of colorectal neoplasia by binding bowel-irritating compounds and diminishing mucosal proliferation. This study quantitatively summarizes epidemiologic studies addressing this hypothesis and aims to explain heterogeneity between studies. Twenty-four articles reported 43 measures of relative risks (RRs). The weighted mean, according to a random effects model, did not ...
متن کاملKnowledge does not protect against illusory truth.
In daily life, we frequently encounter false claims in the form of consumer advertisements, political propaganda, and rumors. Repetition may be one way that insidious misconceptions, such as the belief that vitamin C prevents the common cold, enter our knowledge base. Research on the illusory truth effect demonstrates that repeated statements are easier to process, and subsequently perceived to...
متن کاملBaclofen does not protect against cerebral ischemia in rats.
Presynaptic release of glutamate into the extracellular compartment and activation of receptor-operated calcium channels may contribute to ischemic neuronal damage. We evaluated the effect of baclofen, a selective inhibitor of presynaptic glutamate release, on mortality, working memory, and light microscopic hippocampal and cortical damage in the four-vessel occlusion model of cerebral ischemia...
