Evidence for participation of lipid peroxidation and iron in diquat-induced hepatic necrosis in vivo.

Only registered users can translate articles

The hepatic necrosis produced in Fischer-344 rats by diquat appears to be mediated by redox cycling of diquat with generation of reactive oxygen species. We have now tested the hypothesis that chelates of iron are important in the cytotoxicity of reactive oxygen species, possibly through initiating

A controlled clinical trial of vitamin E supplementation in patients with congestive heart failure.

BACKGROUND Oxidative stress is increased in patients with congestive heart failure and can contribute to the progressive deterioration observed in these patients. Increased oxidative stress is the result of either an increased production of free radicals or a depletion of endogenous antioxidants,

Antieosinophilic activity of orazipone.

Only registered users can translate articles

Orazipone is a novel sulfhydryl-reactive compound that has been previously shown to reduce lung eosinophilia in guinea pigs and rats and to inhibit degranulation in mast cells and cytokine production in monocytes and T-cells. However, the effects of orazipone on granulocyte longevity are unknown.

The induction of autoxidative tissue damage by iron nitrilotriacetate in rats and mice.

Only registered users can translate articles

Iron nitrilotriacetate (FeNTA) is a potent initiator of lipid peroxidation, and, when injected intraperitoneally into mice, it greatly increased ethane and pentane exhalation within 30 min. The time course and dose-response of the exhalation of ethane were studied and compared with the increase in

Effect of acetaminophen on hepatic content and biliary efflux of glutathione disulfide in mice.

Only registered users can translate articles

The increased expiration of ethane and pentane by mice treated with hepatotoxic doses of acetaminophen suggests the possibility of oxidant mechanisms associated with the necrosis. However, studies in rats are not consistent with oxidant stress mechanisms causing the damage, because acetaminophen

Studies of the toxic interactions of disinfection by-products.

A large number and variety of compounds are formed in the process of chlorinating drinking water. The classes of compounds formed include trihalomethanes, haloacetic acids, haloacetonitriles, halophenols, and halopropanones. Many of the compounds have been shown to be toxic and are currently being

Mitochondria-targeted plastoquinone derivatives as tools to interrupt execution of the aging program. 1. Cationic plastoquinone derivatives: synthesis and in vitro studies.

Only registered users can translate articles

Synthesis of cationic plastoquinone derivatives (SkQs) containing positively charged phosphonium or rhodamine moieties connected to plastoquinone by decane or pentane linkers is described. It is shown that SkQs (i) easily penetrate through planar, mitochondrial, and outer cell membranes, (ii) at low

An attempt to prevent senescence: a mitochondrial approach.

Only registered users can translate articles

Antioxidants specifically addressed to mitochondria have been studied to determine if they can decelerate senescence of organisms. For this purpose, a project has been established with participation of several research groups from Russia and some other countries. This paper summarizes the first

A biochemical approach to the problem of aging: "megaproject" on membrane-penetrating ions. The first results and prospects.

Only registered users can translate articles

Antioxidants specifically addressed to mitochondria have been studied for their ability to decelerate aging of organisms. For this purpose, a project has been established with participation of several research groups from Belozersky Institute of Physico-Chemical Biology and some other Russian
