Effects of compound Salvia Injection on lipid peroxidation antioxidant enzymes activity in patients with chronic cor pulmonale

The effects of Compound Salvia Injection (CSI) on plasma lipid peroxidation (LPO), RBC superoxide dismutase (SOD), glutathione peroxidase (GSH-Px) and catalase (CAT) activity in patients with chronic cor pulmonale were studied. Thirty patients were randomly divided into two groups: the group treated with routine therapy (routine group) and the group treated with routine therapy plus CSI (CSI group). The 4 parameters mentioned above have been measured in patients of the two groups and in 22 healthy subjects for control. The results showed: (1) Before treatment, both the treatment groups had significantly higher LPO and SOD and markedly lower GSH-Px and CAT level than those of the healthy control (P<0.001). (2) After treatment the 4 parameters have been normalized in CSI group. (3) In the routine group, the parameters were still abnormal, that is, the increased levels of GSH-Px and CAT and the decreased LPO were singificantly greater in CSI group than that in routine group. These results indicated that CSI could obviously lower the enhanced lipid peroxidation and adjust the imbalance of antioxidant enzymes.

苯、甲苯对作业女工血中LPO、SOD、GSH-Px含量影响的探讨

本文对接触苯、甲苯的作业女工血清中过氧化脂质(LPO)、红细胞中超氧化物歧化酶(SOD)和谷胱甘肽过氧化物酶(GSH-Px)进行了测定分析。其结果为:(1)接触组女工血中LPO、SOD含量均明显高于对照组。说明苯、甲苯使作业女工体内脂质过氧化反应增强。(2)WBC计数与LPO、SOD和GSHPx含量均呈负相关,提示随着脂质过氧化反应增强WBC计数降低。因此,作者认为脂质过氧化反应增强是苯、甲苯导致WBC计数降低的重要因素,LPO和SOD作为判断苯、甲苯对人体危害的早期监测指标具有一定的意义。     

脂质过氧化与冠状动脉粥样硬化性心脏病

对31名心绞痛或陈旧性心肌梗塞的男性冠心病患者及42名健康男性进行血液检测,冠心病患者的血清过氧化脂质(LPO) 含量较健康者显著增高,而血铜,锌,硒含量及谷胱甘肽过氧化物酶(GSH—Px) 和超氧化物岐化酶(SOD) 活力均较健康者显著降低。多因素分析结果,冠心病患者血LPO与GSH-Px,SOD及硒均呈负相关;血硒含量与GSH-Px活力及血铜含量与SOD活力均呈正相关。脂质过氧化增强在冠心病的发生发展过程中可能起着重要的促进作用。     

Heroin abuse and nitric oxide, oxidation, peroxidation, lipoperoxidation

To further reveal the risks of heroin abuse to human body, and to determine the injuries of oxidation, peroxidation and lipoperoxidation induced by nitric oxide and other free radicals to heroin abusers, we determined and compared plasma values of lipoperoxides (LPO), nitric oxide (NO), vitamin C (VC), vitamin E (VE), β-carotene (β-CAR) and erythrocyte values of LPO, superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase (CAT), and glutathione peroxidase (GSH-Px) in 114 heroin abusers and 100 healthy volunteers. Using linear regression and correlation as well as stepwise regression and correlation, we also analyzed the effect of the abusing duration, and daily abusing quantity on the above-mentioned biochemical parameters in the heroin abusers. The results showed that, compared with the healthy volunteer groups, the average plasma values of LPO, and NO, and the average erythrocyte value of LPO in the heroin abuser group were significantly increased (P＜0.0001), and the average plasma values of VC, VE, and β-CAR and the average erythrocyte values of SOD, CAT, and GSH-Px were significantly decreased (P＜0.0001). Analysis of linear regression and correlation showed that with prolonged heroin abusing and with increased daily quantity in the heroin abusers, the plasma values of LPO, and NO, and the erythrocyte value of LPO were gradually increased (P＜0.001), whereas the plasma values of VC, VE, and β-CAR and the erythrocyte values of SOD, CAT, and GSH-Px were gradually decreased (P＜0.001). Analysis of stepwise regression and correlation indicated that the plasma values of NO, VC and VE were closely correlated with the abusing duration and daily abusing quantity. These results indicate that the balance between oxidation and antioxidation in the heroin abusers was seriously disturbed, and the injuries induced by nitric oxide and other free radicals, through oxidation, peroxidation and lipoperoxidation to the bodies of heroin abusers exacerbated. It is therefore necessary that in abstaining from heroin dependence, the heroin abusers should acquire sufficient quantities of antioxidants such as VC, VE and β-CAR.     

Effects of calcitonin, risedronate, and raloxifene on erythrocyte antioxidant enzyme activity, lipid peroxidation, and nitric oxide in postmenopausal osteoporosis

BACKGROUND: The aims of this study were to compare erythrocyte antioxidant enzyme activities, lipid peroxidation, and nitric oxide levels (NO) in women with postmenopausal osteoporosis (PMO) and non-porotic postmenopausal healthy controls and to assess the relationship between bone mineral density and these oxidant/antioxidant parameters. Additionally, in vivo effects of three different anti-osteoporotic drugs, calcitonin, risedronate and raloxifene, on the erythrocyte oxidant-antioxidant status in women with PMO were also assessed. METHODS: Postmenopausal women aged 40-65 years and without previous diagnosis or treatment for osteoporosis and independent in activities of daily living were included. Bone mineral density was measured at the lumbar spine and proximal femur using DXA. Erythrocyte enzyme activities of superoxide dismutase (SOD), glutathione peroxidase (GSH-Px), catalase (CAT), and lipid peroxidation end-product malondialdehyde (MDA) and nitrite/nitrate levels, by product of NO, were assessed. Fifty-nine women with PMO were included (mean age 56.7 years), 44 completed course of therapy and were analyzed. Twenty-two non-porotic healthy women (mean age 55.8 years) were included as controls. RESULTS: Patients had significantly lower CAT and GSH-Px enzyme activity and higher levels of MDA and NO than non-porotic healthy controls. Proximal femur BMD measurements significantly correlated with NO levels. QUALEFFO scores improved in different levels with these short-term treatments. In all treatment groups, erythrocyte MDA levels significantly decreased; moreover, risedronate reduced NO levels and raloxifene enhanced CAT enzyme activity. CONCLUSIONS: Oxidative stress plays an important role in the pathogenesis of PMO. Studied drugs had ultimate effects on reducing lipid peroxidation. Raloxifene also had potent effects in the enhancement of antioxidant defense system.

Abnormal metabolism of nitric oxide, oxidative stress and lipoperoxidative stress in patients with acute viral myocarditis

Objective To investigate metabolic status of nitric oxide (NO) as well as oxidative and li poperoxidative stress, pathological chain reactions of a series of free radicals , and oxidative and lipoperoxidative damages in patients with acute viral myocar ditis (AVM). Methods Using a random paired control design, plasma levels of NO, lipoperoxides (LPO), vitamin C (VC), vitamin E (VE) and β- carotene (β- CAR), erythrocytic level of LPO as well as activities of erythrocytic superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase (CAT) and glutathione peroxidase (GSH- Px) were investigated by spectrophotometr ic assays in 60 AVM patients and 60 healthy adult volunteers (HAV). Results Compared with the HAV group, plasma NO, and LPO in plasma and in erythrocyte of the AVM group significantly increased (P=0. 0001), while VC, VE, β- CAR, SO D, CAT and GSH- Px of the AVM group significantly decreased (P=0. 0001). Co mpared with the AVM group before treatment, plasma NO, and LPO in plasma and in erythrocyte of the AVM group post treatment significantly decreased (P&lt;0. 05 ), whereas plasma VC, VE and β- CAR as well as erythrocytic SOD, CAT and GSH- P x of the AVM group post treatment significantly increased (P&lt;0. 05). Conclusion The findings in this study suggested that in the AVM patients the metabolism of NO was disturbed, and the pathological chain reactions of a series of free radic als were severely aggravated, thus produced the oxidative damage and lipoperoxid ative damages. Therefore, we recommend that antioxidants at suitable dosage, su ch as VC, VE, β- CAR and others, should be given to AVM patients daily to allev iate potential oxidative and lipoperoxidative damages in their bodies.     

Relationship between Acute Organophosphours Pesticide Poisoning and Damages Induced by Free Radicals

Objective To study the relationship between abnormal reactions of free radicals in bodies of patients with acute organophosphorus pesticide poisoning (AOPP) and damages induced by free radicals. Methods 58 AOPP patients and 58 healthy adult volunteers (HAV) were enrolled in an independent samples control design, in which spectrophotometric methods were used to determine the concentrations of nitric oxide (NO) and lipoperoxides (LPO) in plasma, and LPO in erythrocytes, vitamin C (VC), vitamin E (VE) and b-carotene (b-CAR) in plasma as well as activities of superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase (CAT), glutathione peroxidase (GSH-Px) and acetylcholinesterase (AChE) in erythrocytes. Results Compared with the average values of every biochemical parameter in the HAV group, the average values of LPO in plasma and in erythrocytes, and NO in plasma in the AOPP group were significantly increased (P=0.000001), while the average values of VC, VE, a-CAR in plasma as well as SOD, CAT, GSH-Px and AChE in erythrocytes in the AOPP group were significantly decreased (P=0.000001). The findings of Pearson product-moment correlation analysis between the value of AChE in erythrocytes and the values of above biochemical parameters for 58 AOPP patients showed that there was a significant linear negative correlation between AChE in erythrocytes and LPO, NO in plasma, and LPO in erythrocytes (P=0.000001～0.001319), while there was a significant linear positive correlation between AChE in erythrocytes and VC, VE, a-CAR in plasma as well as SOD, CAT, GSH-Px in erythrocytes (P=0.000013～0.000824). The results of discriminant analysis of above chemical parameters for 58 AOPP patients and 58 HAV suggested that the correct rates of discriminant analysis were increased to 100 % when the values of AChE and LPO in plasma and in erythrocytes, or AChE and others, were jointly used for the discriminant analysis. Conclusion The findings of the present study suggest that a series of free radical reactions in AOPP patients' bodies are pathologically aggravated, and the discriminant analysis used the above biochemical parameters could markedly increase its correct rates for AOPP patients.

Oxidative stress before and after operation in patients with chronic cholecystitis containing gallstone

To study the relationship of oxidative, antioxidative constituents and antioxidases in blood with chronic cholecystitis containing gallstone, levels of lipoperoxides (LPO), nitric oxide (NO), vitamin C(VC), vitamin E (VE) and beta-carotene (beta-CAR) in plasma as well as level of LPO, activities of superoxide dismulase (SOD), catalase (CAT) and glutathione peroxidase (GSH-Px) in erythrocytes were investigated by spectrophotometric assay in 107 patients with this condition (PCg) and 100 healthy volunteers (HVs). Compared with HVs group, the average value of LPO and NO in plasma and that of LPO in erythrocytes of PCg group were significantly increased (P < 0.0001), while that of VC, VE and beta-CAR in plasma and the average activities of SOD, CAT and GSH-Px in erythrocytes were significantly decreased (P < 0.0001). Linear regression and correlation analysis for 107 preoperative PCg showed that the value of LPO and NO in plasma and that of LPO in erythrocytes of PCg gradually increased (P < 0.0001), representing a significant linear positive correlation. The value of VC, VE and beta-CAR in plasma and that of SOD, CAT and GSH-Px in erythrocytes of PCg gradually decreased (P < 0.0001), representing a significant linear negative correlation. Stepwise regression and correlation analysis for 107 preoperative PCg suggested that the closest correlation was observed between the course of disease and the value of NO and VC in plasma and that of SOD, GSH-Px and LPO in erythrocytes, r = 0.7306, F = 32.1408, P < 0.0001. Compared with the preoperative PCg group, the average value of LPO and NO in plasma and that of LPO in erythrocytes of the postoperative PCg group were significantly decreased (P < 0.0001). Furthermore, the average value of VC in plasma and that of SOD, CAT and GSH-Px in erythrocytes of the postoperative PCg group were significantly increased (P < 0.0001), whereas no significant difference was found between their average value of VE and beta-CAR in plasma. These findings suggested that oxidative stress was an aggravating pathological condition in PCg group. Therefore, we recommend that in treating PCg, antioxidants such as VC, VE, beta-CAR should be given in order to alleviate their potential oxidative damages.

The effect of arthroscopic surgery and intraarticular drug injection to the antioxidation system and lipid peroxidation at osteoarthritis of knee

OBJECTIVE: To elucidate the effects of arthroscopy and intraarticular hyaluronan therapies on antioxidant enzyme activity and lipid peroxidation. METHODS: This study was conducted between January and May 2005, at the Department of Orthopedics and Traumatology, Suleyman Demirel University, Isparta, Turkey. A total of 60 patients with knee pain who were diagnosed as knee osteoarthritis according to the American College of Rheumatology (ACR) criteria were included in this study and randomly and equally divided into 4 groups. Intraarticular Hylan G-F 20 treatment was given to group 1 for 3 weeks. Intraarticular Hylan G-F 20 treatment plus oral vitamin E were administered to group 2 for 3 weeks. Only arthroscopy treatment was applied to the control group (group 3). Intraarticular Na-hyaluronate treatment was given to group 4 for 5 weeks. Blood and synovial fluid samples were taken from all the patients for biochemical analysis, and the following parameters were measured: superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase (CAT), glutathione peroxidase (GPx), and malondialdehyde (MDA). RESULTS: There was no significant difference in blood SOD, CAT, GPx levels, and synovial SOD and GPx levels in groups treated with hyaluronan, when compared with the controls. However, there was a significant change in MDA levels in synovial fluid samples of group 1, group 2, and group 4, when compared with the controls. CONCLUSION: In knee osteoarthritis, intraarticular hyaluronan therapy following arthroscopy may diminish lipid peroxidation in synovial fluid.
