Rapidin vivoscreening system for anti-oxidant activity using bacterial redox sensor strains

REDOX and anti - oxidant state

52 Exogenous oocyte secreted factors such as bone morphogenetic protein 15 (BMP15), together 53 with hormones traditionally used during in vitro oocyte maturation, increase the developmental 54 competence of cumulus oocyte complexes (COCs). Separately, FSH and BMP15 induce 55 different metabolic profiles within COCs, namely FSH increases glycolysis while BMP15 56 stimulates FAD and NAD(P)H auto...

Structural requirements for anti-oxidant activity of calix[n]arenes and their associated anti-bacterial activity.

Treatment of neural cells with calix[n]arenes featuring sulphonate moieties and linked to Ag nanoparticles results in reduced reactive species. For Gram+ bacteria there is an inverse correlation between anti-bacterial activity and ROS reduction whereas for Gram- bacteria only calix[6]arenes bearing O-alkyl sulphonate functions act as ROS inhibitors and anti-bacterial agents.

3D-QSAR Modeling of Anti-oxidant Activity of some Flavonoids

The anti-oxidant activities for a diverse set of flavonoids as TEAC (Trolox equivalent anti-oxidant capacity), assay were subjected to 3D-QSAR (3 dimensional quantitative structural-activity relationship) studies using CoMFA (comparative molecular field analysis) and CoMSIA (comparative molecular similarity indices analysis). The obtained results indicated superiority of CoMSIA model over CoMFA...

Relationship between Anti-CCP Antibodies and Oxidant and Anti-Oxidant Activity in Patients with Rheumatoid Arthritis

OBJECTIVE/AIM A new group of autoantibodies in Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA), the anti-cyclic citrullinated peptide (anti-CCP) antibodies directed to citrulline-containing proteins, which are of value for the severity of RA. Up to date, the relationship between anti-CCP antibodies and oxidant, anti-oxidant activity in patients with RA has not been elucidated in the previous studies. In this study w...
