Abstract
The aim of this study is to eveluate levels of advanced oxidation protein products (AOPP) which are thought to increase in the polyp tissue and superoxide dismutase (SOD), an antioxidant enzyme, with using specthrophotometry in polyp tissue and healthy mucosa. 30 nasal polyp patients without inflammatory disease except for nasal polyposis were included in the study. The control group consisted of 18 patients who did not have allergy, asthma, inflammatory and granulomatous disease and planned surgery due to septum deviation and concha hypertrophy. AOPP and SOD tissue levels were measured by spectrophotometry in polyp tissue specimens taken from patients with nasal polyps and concha samples taken from patients in the control group. The mean AOPP tissue level of patients in the nasal polyposis group was statistically significantly higher than the control group. (p < 0.05). The mean SOD activity level was significantly lower in the nasal polyposis group than the control group. (p < 0.05) As a result of this study, high AOPP levels in polyp tissue and low SOD levels in polyp tissue compared to healthy nasal mucosa, oxidative stress plays an important role in nasal polyp development.

Abstract
Endemic fluorosis is a systemic chronic disease caused by excessive intake of fluoride. It is widely accepted that oxidative stress is closely related to fluorosis; however, molecular mechanism of oxidative stress in fluorosis remains unclear. This study investigated the effects of fluoride (F) on oxidative stress markers of lipid, gene, and protein in rats for revealing molecular mechanism of oxidative stress in fluorosis. The results showed concentration and exposure time of fluoride both had a significant effect on MDA and 8-OHdG. Fluoride concentration significantly impacted AGEs level, but exposure time did not. AOPP was not statistically different among the groups. AGEs decreased with the increase of fluoride in the rats with 3 months of fluoride treatment. The correlation analysis showed the degree of dental fluorosis was significantly negatively correlated with 8-OHdG at 1 month and 3 months, and negatively correlated with AGEs at 3 months. In the rats with 100 mg/L of fluoride treatment, MDA was significant positively correlated with 8-OHdG, and negatively correlated with AGEs. 8-OHdG was significantly negatively correlated with AGEs in the control group and 100 mg/L fluoride group. Taken together, fluoride had different effects on oxidative stress markers of lipid, gene, and protein. Excessive fluoride could increase MDA content, and decrease 8-OHdG and AGEs. These findings suggest that oxidative stress involved in molecular pathogenesis of fluorosis is complicated, and needs to furtherly study in the future.

Serum levels of superoxide dismutases in patients with benign paroxysmal positional vertigo. Biosci Rep 2020; 40:224098. [PMID: 32391546 PMCID: PMC7240196 DOI: 10.1042/bsr20193917] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/26/2019] [Revised: 04/21/2020] [Accepted: 04/22/2020] [Indexed: 11/17/2022] Open
Abstract
Objective: To investigate the possible role of superoxide dismutases (SODs) in the development of benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV) and recurrence events in a 1-year follow-up study. Methods: This was a prospective one-center study. A total of 204 patients with BPPV and 120 age-and sex matched healthy subjects were included. The levels of SOD between patients and control cases were compared. The levels of SOD between posterior semicircular canal (PSC) and horizontal semicircular canal (HSC) were also compared. In the 1-year follow-up, recurrence events were confirmed. The influence of SOD levels on BPPV and recurrent BPPV were performed by binary logistic regression analysis. Results: The serum levels of SOD in patients with BPPV were lower than in those control cases (P<0.001). Levels of SOD did not differ in patients with PSC and HSC (P=0.42). As a categorical variable, for per interquartile range (IQR) increment of serum level of SOD, the unadjusted and adjusted risks of BPPV would be decreased by 72% (with the odds ratio [OR] of 0.28 [95% confidence interval (CI): 0.21–0.37], P<0.001) and 43% (0.57 [0.42–0.69], P<0.001), respectively. Recurrent attacks of BPPV were reported in 50 patients (24.5%). Patients with recurrent BPPV had lower levels of SOD than in patients without (P<0.001). For per IQR increment of serum level of SOD, the unadjusted and adjusted risks of BPPV would be decreased by 51% (with the OR of 0.49 [95% CI: 0.36–0.68], P<0.001) and 24% (0.76 [0.60–0.83], P<0.001), respectively. Conclusion: Reduced serum levels of SOD were associated with higher risk of BPPV and BPPV recurrence events.

Avocado seeds (Persea americana Mill.) prevents indomethacin-induced gastric ulcer in mice. Food Res Int 2018; 119:751-760. [PMID: 30884712 DOI: 10.1016/j.foodres.2018.10.057] [Citation(s) in RCA: 27] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/03/2018] [Revised: 10/13/2018] [Accepted: 10/21/2018] [Indexed: 01/02/2023]
Abstract
The long-term use of anti-inflammatory drugs is the most common cause of gastric ulcer disease, one of the major gastrointestinal disorders affecting people worldwide. Persea americana Mill. (avocado) seed is a by-product generally discarded as waste, but can be used to treat gastric disorder due to its anti-inflammatory, antioxidant and antimicrobial activities. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the potential protective effects of the ethyl acetate fraction of avocado seeds (SEAP) extracts against indomethacin-induced gastric ulcer in mice. It was found that SEAP were effective in mitigating oxidative stress through a decrease on the oxidized products levels (reduction of 90% in lipid peroxidation in plasma) and increasing superoxide dismutase enzyme (SOD) activity (4.25-fold increase compared to the indomethacin group), also preventing the rise in ulcer and lesions areas (92% of protection) and histological changes induced by indomethacin. Chemical analysis using mass spectrometry by (-)-ESI-FT-ICR MS revealed the presence of (-)-epicatechin and (+)-catechin, confirmed by HPLC-DAD, and other important phenolic compounds in avocado seeds, such as caffeoylquinic acid, flavonoids, phenylpropanoids and tannins, substances that promote inhibition of pathways involved in gastric ulcer formation. Thus, avocado seeds extract may be a suitable natural source for the prevention and treatment of gastric ulcer.

Measurement and Clinical Significance of Biomarkers of Oxidative Stress in Humans. OXIDATIVE MEDICINE AND CELLULAR LONGEVITY 2017; 2017:6501046. [PMID: 28698768 PMCID: PMC5494111 DOI: 10.1155/2017/6501046] [Citation(s) in RCA: 432] [Impact Index Per Article: 61.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/14/2017] [Revised: 04/26/2017] [Accepted: 05/21/2017] [Indexed: 12/11/2022]
Abstract
Oxidative stress is the result of the imbalance between reactive oxygen species (ROS) formation and enzymatic and nonenzymatic antioxidants. Biomarkers of oxidative stress are relevant in the evaluation of the disease status and of the health-enhancing effects of antioxidants. We aim to discuss the major methodological bias of methods used for the evaluation of oxidative stress in humans. There is a lack of consensus concerning the validation, standardization, and reproducibility of methods for the measurement of the following: (1) ROS in leukocytes and platelets by flow cytometry, (2) markers based on ROS-induced modifications of lipids, DNA, and proteins, (3) enzymatic players of redox status, and (4) total antioxidant capacity of human body fluids. It has been suggested that the bias of each method could be overcome by using indexes of oxidative stress that include more than one marker. However, the choice of the markers considered in the global index should be dictated by the aim of the study and its design, as well as by the clinical relevance in the selected subjects. In conclusion, the clinical significance of biomarkers of oxidative stress in humans must come from a critical analysis of the markers that should give an overall index of redox status in particular conditions.
