متن کاملBiotransformation of the toxic chemical substances
Free radicals and oxygen meatabolites by xenobiotics were studied. Reactive intermediates detoxification may be due to the hydrolysis, glutathione conjugation, or interactions with cellular antioxidants. When DNA is modified in biological systems or when isolated DNA, nucleosides, and nucleotides are reacted with the xenobiotic or its metabolites. Free radicals biotransformation was considered....
متن کاملThe role of oxygen free radicals in occupational and environmental lung diseases.
Oxygen free radicals and their metabolites, collectively described as reactive oxygen species (ROS), have been implicated in the pathogenesis of many diseases. The pulmonary system is particularly vulnerable to ROS-induced injury because of its continuous exposure to toxic pollutants from a wide variety of sources in the ambient air. Additionally, lungs are exposed systemically to ROS generated...
متن کاملLeukocyte depletion as a mechanism for reducing neutrophil-mediated ischemic-reperfusion injury during transplantation.
Patients undergoing transplantation are at high risk for leukocyte-mediated morbidity because of activated neutrophils and oxygen free radicals. This type of injury is most prominent during the reperfusion stage of transplantation. When tissue becomes ischemic, normal oxidation is altered. As oxygen is reintroduced to the system, oxygen free radical formation occurs via the oxidation of hypoxan...
متن کاملGlutathione metabolism and its role in hepatotoxicity.
Glutathione (GSH) fulfills several essential functions: Detoxification of free radicals and toxic oxygen radicals, thiol-disulfide exchange and storage and transfer of cysteine. GSH is present in all mammalian cells, but may be especially important for organs with intense exposure to exogenous toxins such as the liver, kidney, lung and intestine. Within the cell mitochondrial GSH is the main de...
