Introduction. To date, age and sex differences have been established for many biochemical parameters. Gender differences in indicators for systems such as antioxidant, thiol-disulfide, oxidative stress and inflammation systems are absent or under study.The aim of the study was to identify gender differences in biochemical parameters reflecting the functioning of antioxidant systems of the body and free radical oxidation in workers of metallurgical production, in contact with harmful production factors.Materials and methods. The blood of men and women working at the metallurgical enterprise of the Nizhny Novgorod region (n=80) under the influence of a complex of physical and chemical production factors was studied. Total oxidative stress, total antioxidant capacity of serum, glutathione levels were studied by photometric biochemical methods. Levels of C-reactive protein and 8-hydroxy–2-deoxyguanosine were studied by ELISA.Results. The average amount of peroxides in the serum of women exceeded 1.6 times this figure in men. In the group of men, the content of 8-Ondg was higher by 26% (p=0.012), the level of GS-by 12% (p=0.019), the activity of SOD — by 1.5–2 times (p=0.0001), the level of CRP — by 2 times (p=0.008) compared to similar indicators in women.Conclusions. Studies of gender differences in workers under the influence of harmful production factors will allow more effective approach to the etiology, treatment and prognosis of production-related diseases. Indicators of oxidative stress and antioxidant protection can be indicators of the health of workers under the influence of harmful industrial factors and be important in the prevention of diseases associated with oxidative stress.

Radical Oxidation

Recently, interest in the problem of free radical oxidation in biological membranes, which is directly related to both the normal functioning of cells and the occurrence, course and outcome of many pathological conditions, has increased again in clinical medicine. The aim was to determine the role and impact of antioxidant defense in boys with hypoandrogenism. The study involved 75 adolescents with hypoandrogenism aged 13–18 years, who underwent a complex of clinical and laboratory examinations. All patients were conducted complex of anthropometric research and determination of the degree of delayed puberty, laboratory and instrumental examination. Free radical oxidation was determined by the levels of malondialdehyde, conjugated dienes, carbonated proteins, superoxide dismutase and catalase in the serum, and restored glutathione and glutathione peroxidase in whole blood. Based on their determination, the coefficient of oxidative stress was calculated. Statistical processing of results was performed using parametric and nonparametric methods. The study of indicators of the free radical oxidation process found that adolescents with hypoandrogenism have multidirectional changes in the oxidation of proteins and lipids, namely: the level of conjugated dienes increases, the concentration of malondialdehyde remains at the level of the control group, and the level of carbonated proteins tends to decrease. As for the activity of antioxidant protection enzymes, a significant decrease in the level of glutathione peroxidase was detected, while the level of superoxide dismutase and catalase remained at the level of normative indicators. Oxidative stress accompanies and is one of the pathogenetic links in the formation or maintenance of the state of hypoandrogenism in boys. This requires the use of antioxidants, the complex of which must be selected individually.

Radical Oxidation

In fact, Free radical oxidation is one of the required factors of homeostasis as far as the active forms of oxygen, which have unpaired electron, perform useful functions, they are necessary intermediaries of numerous processes of normal cells’ functioning such as biosynthesis of prostaglandins and leukotriene as well as other biologically active substances. Also, they take part in pathological processes such as: inflammation, fever and others. Free radical oxidation is the process of direct oxygen transferring to the substrate forming peroxide, ketones, aldehydes, etc. Some amino acids, proteins, water and carbohydrates prone to the processes of peroxidation, but crucial place is granted to lipids at the expanse of fatty acids which are included to their composition. The article highlights the information concerning the analysis of the state of antioxidant system of hens in the process of feeding them with subtoxic doses of fungicide of Derosal (BAYER, Germany) (0.1 LD50 for a fowl, 900 mg/kg of the body mass) which active ingredient is benzimidazole carbamate (carbendazim, BMC). It presents the changes of these indicators in the process of using pharmacological and natural antioxidants. The analysis has figured out that giving Derosal to the hens without corrections (II group) has been followed with the activation of the process of lipids’ peroxidation (POL) in the blood plasma, that is followed with the increase of concentration of primary and secondary lipoperoxidation products – diene conjugates (DC) and TBA-active products on the average up to 21.0–25.0 %, catalase activity – up to 38.5 % and decrease of superoxide dismutase activity (SOD) up to 21.8 % and АОА – up to 17.8 %, that shows the adverse effects of pesticides on the system of antioxidant protection of the organism. In the fowls’ groups III, IV and V the adding of antioxidant E-selenium, ascorbic acid and thermally untreated buckwheat seeds as the source of  quercetins and anthocyanins has led to the induction of antioxidant resources that is shown by the decrease in comparison with the control of content of diene conjugates, malonic dialdehyde and catalase (in average up to 13.6–33.6–18.0 % accordingly) and compensatory strengthening of superoxide dismutase activity and general activity of antioxidant (АОА) on the average up to 44.9–72.1–76.5 % and 15.3–13.4–21.7 % accordingly. In comparison with group II the activity of catalase has been lower as well as the activity of superoxide dismutase has been higher in all the groups almost in 1.5–2 times (Р ≤ 0.001).

Relevance. The study of bioradical processes in periodontitis in the dynamics of the disease and the establishment of the role of predictors of periodontal tissue damage will provide a deeper understanding of the links of pathogenesis and, on this basis, introduce new therapeutic and diagnostic technologies into practice. The purpose of the study: Assessment of the level of markers of oxidative stress in experimental periodontitis in the dynamics of the study. Materials and methods. The study was conducted on white non-linear rats, reproducing the model of periodontitis proposed by Shkolnaya K. D., Atrushkevich V. G. (Patent RU No. 2625295 of 12.07.2017). The total activity of free radical oxidation and the body's antioxidant potential were evaluated by biochemiluminescence, the intensity of lipoperoxidation processes, and the enzyme antioxidant potential. Results. A comprehensive analysis of the overall oxidative and antioxidant capacity of the body was carried out, during which it was revealed that progressive experimental periodontitis causes inhibition of the antioxidant potential and is characterized by a violation of the processes of neutralization of reactive oxygen species and the inability to inhibit the launched reactions of free radical oxidation, as evidenced by the dynamics of an increased level of markers of oxidative stress. Conclusion. Thus, in periodontitis, oxidative stress develops, which contributes to the progression of destructive processes of periodontal tissues, which substantiates the feasibility of using markers of the intensity of free radical oxidation as diagnostic and prognostic criteria for the course of the disease and the introduction of antioxidant-type drugs in complex therapy.

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.

Various pathologies, in particular hypertension, accompany violation of the processes of free radical oxidation. The state of the system lipid peroxidation – antioxidant protection can be assessed only by a complex of biochemical methods. The chemiluminescent method is used to obtain a faster result. The method has a number of advantages: measurement of chemiluminescence parameters is carried out in natural conditions and does not require sample preparation, is highly selective, it can be used to identify the presence of free radical pathology, analysis of the intensity of lipid peroxidation processes, the effectiveness of treatment with antioxidant medicament. The aim of the research was to study the lipid peroxidation under hypertension and stress by chemiluminescence. The experiment was conducted on male rats of the ISIAH line. The experiment consisted of 2 stages: stage of alarm and stage of chronic stress. We found that, depending on the type of stress, the state of the system lipid peroxidation-antioxidant protection differed. The role of stress in violation of the processes of lipoperoxidation in hypertension was established. The efficacy of the chemiluminescence method as an alternative to a complex of biochemical methods is shown. Express assessment of pro- and antioxidant status is possible for patients with hypertension.

This article highlights the pharmacological study of new 7,8-disubstituted derivative of theophylline, the substance conditionally named benophylline. Based on the literature data and previous studies of compounds of this class, it has been concluded that studying the effect of benophylline on the pro-antioxidant system under simulated pathologies is of great interest and importance.  The study of antihypoxic action of 7,8-disubstituted theophylline in rats was carried out under modelled normobaric hypoxia with hypercapnia (in an enclosed space). It has been found out the application of 7-n-methylbenzyl-8-substituted polyphosphonates increases the longevity of rats in the conditions described above that evidences the improvement of metabolic processes in mitochondrial respiratory chain. Based on the results of screening studies, we selected 7,8-disubstituted derivative of theophylline (benophylline) as a leading substance for further investigation. The purpose of the study was to evaluate the efficacy of benophylline for the pharmacological correction of free radical processes in experimental renal damage in rats based on the evaluation of the expression of lipid peroxidation and antioxidant protection. Materials and methods: blood serum, homogenate and rat kidney tissues were the study materials. The study of the protective effect of benophylline on the functional state of the kidneys was investigated on experimental model of acute renal injury by introducing 50% water solution of glycerol (myoglobin nephropathy). Pathogenesis of this model was described in the methodological recommendations by C. Yu. Shtrygol, V. M. Lysovoi, I. A. Zupanetz et al. in «Methods of experimental modeling of kidney damage for pharmacological research». The content of TBK-R was determined spectrophotometrically by reaction with thiobarbituric acid. Glutathione recovered activity was determined spectrophotometrically in reaction with Elman's reagent using the method of Beutler E. D. et al. The catalase activity was assessed by the method of M.A. Koroluk et al. The influence of benophylline on the morphological state of the renal parenchyma was assessed on the modeled myoglobin nephropathy. The activity of gamma-glutamyltranspeptidase in serum was evaluated photometrically using a reagent test kit (“Filisit”). Statistical processing of the results was performed using the STATISTICA 8.0 software package, with the mean value, standard error of the mean confidence interval (p≤0.05). The microscopic study of microproducts was performed under the Granum microscope. Micrographs were taken with a Granum DMC 310 digital camera. The images were processed on a Pentium 2.4 GHz computer using Toup View software. Research results: Under the influence of benophylline, the processes of LPO and AOP became normalized, the expressiveness of degradation of the nephrocytes decreased, the microscopic picture of renal excretion in all rats got normalized. At the same time, 62.5% of the rats had the morphological condition of kidneys close to the intact control, and 37.5% of the animals were noticed to demonstrate a significant decrease in the dyscirculatory abnormalities, inflammatory manifestations and signs of nephrocyte regeneration. Conclusions: The ability of benophylline to inhibit the processes of free radical oxidation and to enhance antioxidant protection has been found out. The study has shown benophylline enhances regenerative effect kidney tissues.
