  2. 1. Oxidative stress and proteolysis in the lens. Effects of anti-inflammatory drugs

    Author : Anne Kling-Petersen; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; oxidation NSAIDs ASA dexamethasone apoptosis GSH GSSG proteasome lens epithelial cells mouse lens cataract;

    Abstract : Oxidative stress has been implied in formation of age-related cataract. The objectives of this thesis were to study redox regulation of proteolysis and oxidative/antioxidative effects of anti-inflammatory substances in human lens epithelial cells (HLEC) and intact mouse lenses.

  4. 2. Glutathione reductase from erythrocytes : purification, characterization and identification of functional histidine and arginine residues of the enzyme

    Author : Vijayakumar Boggaram; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Abstract : This investigation aims at the development of a rapid, simple purification procedure for glutathione reductase and at an exploration of the chemical groups of the enzyme essential for activity.Glutathione reductase from porcine erythrocytes was purified to homogeneity by the use of affinity chromatography on 2’,5’ ADP-Sepharose 4B.

  5. 3. Endothelium-Dependent Vasodilation and Oxidative Stress in Chronic Renal Failure

    Author : Margus Annuk; Ola Samuelson; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : Medical sciences; endothelium; oxidative stress; chronic renal failure; L-arginine; diclofenac; erythropoietin; MEDICIN OCH VÅRD; MEDICINE; MEDICIN; Internal Medicine; invärtesmedicin;

    Abstract : Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is the major cause of death in patients with chronic renal failure (CRF). Endothelial function and oxidative stress (OS) have previously been shown to be important in the pathogenesis of CVD. In this thesis, the endothelium-dependent vasodilatation (EDV) and OS were investigated in the patients with CRF. READ MORE

  6. 4. Development and biomedical applications of highly sensitive enzyme activity assays of thioredoxin, thioredoxin reductase and glutaredoxin

    Author : Sergio J Montano; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Oxidative stress is implicated in the pathogenesis of many human diseases, thus it is interesting to study the relationship between antioxidants, the development and progression of diseases. The thioredoxin and glutaredoxin systems are ubiquitous redox-active proteins known to be induced in chronic inflammatory related processes, such as cancer and diabetes, to protect against oxidative stress.

  7. 5. The physiological impact of soccer on elite female players and the effects of active recovery training

    Author : Helena M. Andersson; Fawzi Kadi; Carl Johan Sundberg; Örebro universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Football; Training; Recovery; Intermittent exercise; Sports; Idrott; INTERDISCIPLINARY RESEARCH AREAS; TVÄRVETENSKAPLIGA FORSKNINGSOMRÅDEN; Fysiologi; Physiology; Idrottsvetenskap; Sports Science;

    Abstract : Female soccer is becoming more popular and professional in the world. There are, however, limited scientific data available on how elite female players respond to physical stress during soccer games. An effective recovery strategy following a game is important, because there are few recovery days between the games in international tournaments. READ MORE
