The possibility that cerebral ischemia may initiate a series of pathological free radical reactions within the membrane components of the CNS was investigated in the cat. The normally occurring electron transport radicals require adequate molecular oxygen for orderly transport of electrons and protons. A decrease in tissue oxygen removes the controls over the electron transport radicals, and al...
A new approach to quantifying myocyte cell death utilizing fluorescence-activated sorting of antimyosin antibody-labeled cells was used to study the effects of oxygen-generated free radicals on cell survival. Uptake of antimyosin, reflecting sarcolemmal damage, increased under conditions which promoted elevated free radical formation and decreased in the presence of increased levels of free rad...
For many years, melatonin has been known to interact with circadian rhythms. New evidence indicates that melatonin acts as a free radical scavenger and antioxidant. Moreover, melatonin prevents apoptosis in different types of cells, because it induces mRNA levels of several antioxidant enzymes. It is evident that melatonin is involved in the cellular bioenergetic system as a mechanism that coun...
Ever since their experimental discovery in 1985, fullerenes have attracted considerable attention in different fields of sciences. Investigations of chemical, physical and biological properties of fullerenes have yielded promising information. Their unique carbon cage structure coupled with immense scope for derivatization makes fullerenes a potential therapeutic agent. Henceforth various poten...
The mitochondrial respiratory activities and energy metabolism in the fetal rat brain were measured at the end of 30 minutes of intrauterine ischemia and after 2 and 4 hours of recirculation. The transient ischemia was associated with a delayed deterioration of cellular bioenergetic state and mitochondrial activities. The deterioration was not prevented by a free radical scavenger, 3-methyl-1-p...
Etoposide is an effective anticancer agent whose antitumor activity is associated with its phenolic E-ring, which can participate in intracellular redox cycling reactions. Myeloperoxidase (MPO)-catalyzed one-electron oxidation of the etoposide phenolic ring and/or interaction of this phenolic moiety with reactive radicals yields its phenoxyl radical, whose reactivity may determine the pro- or a...
Vitamin E (alpha-tocopherol), a well known naturally occurring chain breaking antioxidant and a free radical scavenger was found to exacerbate nickel (Ni) toxicity in mice. Vitamin E (Vit. E) mediated enhancement of nickel toxicity was demonstrated by (i) enhanced mortality in mice treated with Ni and Vit. E (ii) increased hepatic lipid peroxidation, (iii) increased rate of benzoate hydroxylati...
The aim of the present study was to evaluate the circulating antioxidants such as vitamin C, vitamin E and GSH in arsenic induced toxicity in rats and in vitro free radical scavenging assay. In this investigation, arsenic (5 mg/kg body weight (b.w) was administered orally for 30 days to induce toxicity. Sinapic acid was administered orally (40 mg/kg body weight) for 30 days with oral administra...
Melatonin, acting through melatonin receptors, is involved in numerous physiological processes including circadian entrainment, blood pressure regulation, oncogenesis, retinal physiology, seasonal reproduction, ovarian physiology, immune function and most recently in inducing osteoblast differentiation. Moreover, melatonin was proved to be a potent-free radical scavenger and a broad-spectrum an...
Objective: Previous studies showed that grape seed extract (GSE) is an excellent natural substance with potent antioxidant effect and free radical scavenger. This study aimed to evaluate the effect of GSE on motor dysfunctions and thalamic local Electroencephalography (EEG) frequency bands' powers in rats with Parkinson's disease (PD). Materials and Methods: In this study 8 µg 6-hydroxydopamin...
