Experimental Hyperthyroidism

Investigation of glutathione antioxidant system activity and diene conjugates content in rats liver and blood serum at the influence of melaksen and valdoxan under experimental hyperthyroidism (EG) has been revealed. It has been established that the activities of glutathione reductase (GR), glutathione peroxidase (GP) and glutathione transferase (GT), growing at pathological conditions, change to the side of control value at these substunces introduction. Reduced glutathione content (GSH) at melaxen and valdoxan action increased compared with values under the pathology, that, obviously, could be associated with a reduction of its spending on the detoxication of free radical oxidation (FRO) toxic products. Diene conjugates level in rats liver and blood serum, increasing at experimental hyperthyroidism conditions, under introduction of melatonin level correcting drugs, also approached to the control meaning. Results of the study indicate on positive effect of melaxen and valdoxan on free radical homeostasis, that appears to be accompanied by decrease of load on the glutathione antioxidant system in comparison with the pathology.

Abstract Dairy goat breeding is widespread worldwide. Goat milk and other derivative products are an important part of nutrition. Dairy products are the most important part of goat breeding; therefore, lactation performance is a relevant issue. The purpose of this study was to evaluate antioxidant system characteristics in Saanen goats depending on lactation performance. The experiment was conducted in the north-western region of Russian Federation, in the laboratories of the biochemistry and physiology departments at FSBEI of Higher Education «SPbSAVM». The three experimental groups included 30 Saanen goats each, 2nd–3rd lactations, selected using matched pairs method. 1st group included low milk producing ability goats (< 600 kg of milk yield per year), 2nd group included average milk producing ability goats (600–800 kg of milk yield per year), 3rd group included high milk producing ability goats (>800 kg of milk yield per year). The blood samples were taken once: at peak lactation performance (45 days after parturition). The blood levels of lipid peroxygenation markers (malondialdehyde, dienketone and conjugated dienes) and superoxide dismutase and catalase activity were assessed by standard methods. Results presented as mean±standard error of the mean. Student’s t-test was used after proving normal distribution. Level of significance is labeled as P < 0.05. The results are displayed in table 1 and 2. After analyzing the received data of antioxidant system characteristics, we found a high intensity of free-radical oxidation in high milk producing ability goats. This results in oxidative stress development. Activity of anti-oxidizing enzymes was elevated; therefore, free-radical oxidation is intensive. Consequently, these data allow us to take into consideration exogenous anti-oxidizing agents administration in high milk producing ability goats in order to reduce oxidative stress.

<p><strong>Background.</strong> Nitric oxide (NO) is an important mediator of hepatotoxicity. NO in liver can be derived from two sources: (1) constitutive NO synthase (eNOS) in endothelial cells, and (2) inducible NO synthase (iNOS) in hepatocytes and Kupffer cells.<br /><strong>Objectives.</strong> The present study was aimed to examine the effect of nonselective NOS inhibitor (L-NAME) and selective iNOS inhibitor (1400W) on the development of allyl alcohol (AA) induced hepatitis in rats.<br /><strong>Methods.</strong> Male Wistar rats were treated with intraperitoneal injection of saline or AA and L-NAME or 1400W. NO in liver was measured by electrochemical method after eNOS stimulation by calcium ionophore. Total NOS activity and nitrite/nitrate content were measured in liver and blood serum. The activity of free radical oxidation in liver was measured by chemiluminescent method. Alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and aspartate aminotransferase (AST) activities were assayed in blood serum<br /><strong>Results.</strong> AA increased the activity of free radical processes in liver and markers of cytolysis in serum, as well as decreased eNOS and increased iNOS activities. L-NAME considerably inhibited eNOS and augmented the necrosogenic properties of AA, whereas 1400W partially prevented liver damage.<br /><strong>Conclusion.</strong> It has been concluded that in AA intoxication NO produced from eNOS is beneficial to the liver, but NO derived from the upregulated iNOS has deleterious effect.</p><p><strong>KEY WORDS:</strong> nitric oxide, toxic hepatitis, NOS inhibitors.<br /><br /></p>

Complex research into biochemical aspects of the functioning of the antioxidant system for the protection of sperm of the breeding boars has established that the intensity of the flow of peroxide oxidation of lipids in germ cells is much higher than in the extracellular space. Reactions of free radical peroxide oxidation of proteins and lipids in the semen of healthy breeding boars are characterized by a stable level of activity that is necessary for the normal course of implementation of processes of the reproductive function. All components of the antioxidant system stay in mutual compensatory ratios under physiological conditions. As a rule, reducing the concentration or activity of some antioxidant enzymes leads to corresponding changes in others. The main antioxidants of the germ cell genomes are superoxide dismutase and ceruloplasmin. Catalase is a key enzyme that neutralizes H2O2 in the semen fluid of breeding boars. The content of total proteins in the semen of the synthetic line SS23 animals is greater (p < 0.05) than in the breeding boars of the large white breed. The processes of the oxidative modification of proteins in the animals body of the synthetic line runs more intensely, as it is evidenced by the higher content of the aldehyde and ketodinitrophenyl hydrazones of the main and neutral character in the sperm cytoplasm.

Aim. Determine the most informative indicators of free radical peroxidation in blood plasma for predicting the complications of dental implantation. Methods. The study included 84 patients of both with dental implants, including 31 patients without any complications and 53 patients with peri-implantitis. The levels of lipid peroxidation products and protein carbonylation were measured in peripheral blood. Results. Moderate intensification of lipid peroxidation and protein carbonylation was discovered in blood serum of patients with dental implants. Increased free radical oxidation in the blood was not limited to lipid peroxidation and resulted in increased serum levels of carbonylated proteins. Facilitation of oxidative degradation of proteins in the blood was associated with decreased resistance to «carbonyl stress», manifested as increased level of Fe+2/H2O2-induced carbonylation. Development of peri-implantitis resulted in a greater enhancement of free radical oxidation of blood. Isopropanol-soluble and heptane-soluble Schiff bases level was increased in blood serum as well. Similar to patients with dental implants, increased levels of carbonylated proteins was observed in blood serum at peri-implantitis. However, free radical oxidation was more intense in patients with peri-implantitis compared to patients with dental implants. Indeed, the level of heptane-soluble Schiff bases at the group with peri-implantitis was 2 times higher as compared to dental implants group, and the level of isopropanol-soluble lipid peroxidation products in inflammatory complications after implantation has reached fourfold increase compared with patients who underwent operation without complications. Conclusion. Investigated indicators of free radical oxidation may be used as markers of peri-implantitis. Among them, the most informative indicators are Schiff bases and metal-catalyzed protein oxidation.

The article presents the results of studies on the effect of commercial food on the processes of free radical oxidation of lipids in the body of cats with urinary tract pathology. It has been found that the concentration of diene conjugates in the blood serum of sick animals increases significantly by 15.1 - 36.7% relative to healthy ones. The MDA content in the blood serum of healthy animals was 6.05 ± 0.28 nmol / g. In animals with urolithiasis, this indicator increased by about 2 times. When feeding with commercial food and homemade food, LPO processes normalize, which is most pronounced on the 21st day. The average activity of catalase in the blood serum of sick animals was increased from 30.6% to 40.2% relative to healthy ones (15.15 ± 0.61 ?mol / ml). After feeding with therapeutic and prophylactic fodders, by the 7th day, the catalase activity did not significantly decrease compared to the initial level, but remained higher than in control animals by 19.6% - 37.1%. On the 14th day, the catalase activity did not change significantly compared with the 7th day and was higher than the control values by 21.5% - 27.5%.
