چکیده

This is a technical paper describing a variety of preliminary results from in vitro experiments, performed at national research institutions, investigating the bioactivity of a certain redox signaling compound, ASEATM, when placed in direct physical contact with living cells. Specific investigations include in vitro toxicity and antioxidant efficiencies of the master antioxidants glutathione peroxidase (GPx) and Superoxide Dismutase (SOD) inside living cells and the translocation of two well-studied transcription factors (NFkB, NRF2) known to regulate toxic response and antioxidant production in human cells. Some preliminary work on concentration dependence was also done as well as cell proliferation, counts associated with induced oxidative stress in human cells.

Age - related Changes in Glutathione Concentration , Glutathione Peroxidase , Glutathione - S - Transferase , and Superoxide Dismutase Actiyities in Senescence Accelerated Mice

Age-associated changes in several antioxidative factors were studied in blood and liver from mice prone to accelerated senescence aged O.7 to 1.4 years and mice resistant to acce]erated senescence aged 1.0 to 2.1 years. In both strains, actiyities of hepatic glutathione peroxidase (GSH-Px) and glutathione-Stransferase (GST) decrefised significantly with age, and the actiyity of superoxide dismu...

A comparative study of plant and animal mitochondria exposed to paraquat reveals that hydrogen peroxide is not related to the observed toxicity.

Rat liver mitochondria are much more susceptible to protein oxidation induced by paraquat than plant mitochondria. The unsaturated index and the peroxidizability index are higher in rat than in potato tuber. The levels of superoxide dismutase and glutathione reductase are concurrent with the different sensitivities to paraquat, with higher activities in plant mitochondria. However, glutathione ...

Study of antioxidant defense genes expression profile pattern of rice (Oryza sativa L.) cultivars in response to drought stress

Drought stress is one of the important factors that restrict crop production in the world. This study was conducted to investigate defense gene expression in response to drought stress, and also to evaluate the drought tolerance and its mechanism in rice cultivars based on randomized complete block design in two separate environments (drought stress and non-stress). The rice cultivars used incl...

Indole-3-carbinol inhibits nasopharyngeal carcinoma.

This study explored the effects of indole-3-carbinol on the proliferation of human nasopharyngeal carcinoma, both in vitro and in vivo, and the underlying mechanisms in inducing apoptosis of CNE1 cells. Proliferation, apoptosis, malondialdehyde, superoxide dismutase, glutathione peroxidase, expressions of caspase-9, and caspase-3 in human nasopharyngeal carcinoma cells CNE1 were examined. Indol...
