Manganese Superoxide Dismutase Overexpression Attenuates MPTP Toxicity

open access: yesNeurobiology of Disease, 1998
There is substantial evidence implicating mitochondrial dysfunction and free radical generation in the neurotoxicity of MPTP. Manganese superoxide dismutase (MnSOD) is the primary antioxidant enzyme protecting against superoxide radicals produced within ...

Catalase, glutathione peroxidase, metabolic syndrome, superoxide dismutase

open access: yesMajalah Kedokteran Bandung, 2012
Labor pain is part of a normal process, which often causes physiological and psychological stress to mother. These stress have impact to both mother and fetus. Largely (90%) labor comes with pain and in some cases severe pain.

Influence of hyperhomocysteinemia on the cellular redox state - Impact on homocysteine-induced endothelial dysfunction [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
Hyperhomocysteinemia is an independent risk factor for the development of atherosclerosis. An increasing body of evidence has implicated oxidative stress as being contributory to homocysteines deleterious effects on the vasculature.

Polymeric membranes with selective permeability : shielding of an antioxidant enzyme [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
In this work we designed an antioxidant nanoreactor based on the encapsulation of CuZnSOD in amphiphilic copolymer nanovesicles. The nanovesicles are formed by self-assembly of amphiphilic copolymer poly-(2-methyloxazoline)-poly- (dimethylsiloxane ...

Superoxide dismutase 2 as a marker to differentiate tuberculous pleural effusions from malignant pleural effusions

open access: yesClinics, 2014
OBJECTIVES: Our previous study demonstrated that superoxide dismutase levels were higher in tuberculous pleural effusions than in malignant pleural effusions, but that this difference ...

Changes in expression of manganese superoxide dismutase, copper and zinc superoxide dismutase and catalase in Brachionus calyciflorus during the aging process. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
Rotifers are useful model organisms for aging research, owing to their small body size (0.1-1 mm), short lifespan (6-14 days) and the relative easy in which aging and senescence phenotypes can be measured.

Superoxide dismutase and neurological disorders

open access: yesIBRO Neuroscience Reports
Superoxide dismutase (SOD) is a common antioxidant enzyme found majorly in living cells. The main physiological role of SOD is detoxification and maintain the redox balance, acts as a first line of defence against Reactive nitrogen species (RNS ...

Superoxide dismutase participation in plant adaptation to herbicides

open access: yesVìsnik Dnìpropetrovsʹkogo Unìversitetu: Serìâ Bìologìâ, Ekologìâ, 2005
Antioxidative enzyme superoxide dismutase (SOD) role in maize grain was investigated under herbicide action. Combinations of Dialen C with Harness, Primextra Gold and Frontier were used. Increasing in SOD activity proved to be a highly sensitive reaction.

A mutation in dynein rescues axonal transport defects and extends the life span of ALS mice [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a fatal neurodegenerative condition characterized by motoneuron degeneration and muscle paralysis. Although the precise pathogenesis of ALS remains unclear, mutations in Cu/Zn superoxide dismutase (SOD1) account for

Activity of lactate dehydrogenase and superoxide dismutase in the circulation of patients with breast carcinoma [PDF]

open access: yesArchive of Oncology, 2008
Background: A rapid increase in the turnover of malignant cells modulates the enzymes level in circulation and may be a prognostic sign of disease progression.
