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.

The enzyme-like catalytic activity of cerium oxide nanoparticles and its dependency on Ce3+ surface area concentration [PDF]

open access: yesNanoscale 10, 6971 - 6980 (2018), 2018
Cerium oxide nanoparticles are known to catalyze the decomposition of reactive oxygen species such as superoxide radical and hydrogen peroxide. Herein, we examine the superoxide dismutase (SOD) and catalase (CAT) mimetic catalytic activities of nanoceria and demonstrate the existence of generic behaviors.

DFT Investigation of Biocatalytic Mechanisms from pH-Driven, Multi-Enzyme, Biomimetic Behavior in CeO2 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2021
There is considerable interest in the pH-dependent, switchable, biocatalytic properties of cerium oxide (CeO2) nanoparticles (CeNPs) in biomedicine, where these materials exhibit beneficial antioxidant activity against reactive oxygen species (ROS) at basic physiological pH but cytotoxic prooxidant activity in acidic cancer cell pH microenvironment ...

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 ...

Serum antioxidants as predictors of the adult respiratory distress syndrome in septic patients [PDF]

open access: yes, 1993
Adult respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) can develop as a complication of various disorders, including sepsis, but it has not been possible to identify which of the patients at risk will develop this serious disorder.

The trail to superoxide dismutase [PDF]

open access: yesProtein Science, 1998
City College of New York + Cornell Medical School + Duke. While a youngster, I was enthralled by the miracle of insect metamorphosis and followed the transformations of pet caterpillars to pupae and then to gloriously beautiful butterflies and moths. This led naturally to an interest in biology. but mere description was not totally satisfying.

Enterocyte superoxide dismutase 2 deletion drives obesity

open access: yesiScience, 2022
Summary: Compelling evidence support an involvement of oxidative stress and intestinal inflammation as early events in the predisposition and development of obesity and its related comorbidities.

Reaction Cycles of Halogen Species in the Immune Defense: Implications for Human Health and Diseases and the Pathology and Treatment of COVID-19 [PDF]

open access: yesCells 2020, 9(6), 1461, 2020
There is no vaccine or specific antiviral treatment for COVID-19. One current focus is drug repurposing research, but those drugs have limited therapeutic efficacies and known adverse effects. The pathology of COVID-19 is essentially unknown. It is therefore challenging to discover a successful treatment to be approved for clinical use.

Superoxide Dismutase Activities in Plasma of Patients with Breast Cancer

open access: yesArchives of Breast Cancer, 2014
Background: Superoxide radicals are produced during oxidative metabolic processes, and removed by superoxide dismutase (SOD) enzymes. Controversial results have been reported regarding the tissue and plasma concentration of SOD in patients with breast ...
