Functionally, the antioxidants effect of NG is primarily attributed by reducing the free radical like reactive oxygen species (ROS) and enhancing the antioxidants activity such as superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase, glutathione (GSH) in chronic diseases such as cardiovascular, neurodegenerative, diabetes, pulmonary, cancer and nephropathy.
Decrease in Sirtuin1 (SIRT1) and nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor (Nrf2) and increase in nuclear factor kappa B (NFκB) gene expression in diabetes were associated with a decrease in CAT and GPx mRNA expression.
In the course of diabetes and insulin resistance, an intensified defensive activity of cells against the oxidative stress was observed in the undamaged skin, expressed by an increase in the relative content of superoxide dismutase 2 and 3, catalase and the activity of N-acetyl-β-d-hexosaminidase and β-d-glucuronidase.
The observed residue-specific modifications of catalase, peroxiredoxin, carbonic anhydrase, lactate dehydrogenase B and delta-aminolevulinic acid dehydratase were correlated with the literature report on their functional disorder in DM.
The effect of CE extract administration on the redox status of RBCs was evaluated by assessing lipid peroxidation, the ratio of reduced/oxidized glutathione (GSH/GSSG), the level of S-glutathionylated proteins (GSSP) and the enzymatic activities of superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase (CAT), glutathione peroxidase (GPx) and glutathione reductase (GR) in RBCs four weeks after diabetes onset.
Serum activity of antioxidant enzymes glutathione peroxidase, superoxide dismutase (SOD), and catalase was lower in DM than CTL; apocynin restored catalase and SOD levels in DM + APO.
Serum catalase and insulin levels, body weight and blood glucose levels (BGL), alpha-glucosidase inhibition, lipid peroxidation and glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) were measured to evaluate both alloxan-induced diabetes mellitus and diabetic painful neuropathy (DPN).
Induction of diabetes was associated with a marked reduction in glutathione (GSH) levels; decreased activities of GSH peroxidase (GSH Px), manganese superoxide dismutase (MnSOD) and catalase; increased reactive oxygen species (ROS) levels and iNOS activity in plasma and lymphoid organs.
The aim of this study is to examine association of decreased blood catalase activity and catalase exon mutations in patients (n=617) with diabetes (n=380), microcytic anemia (n=58), beta-thalassemia (n=43) and presbycusis (n=136) and in controls (n=295).
ASE reduced oxidative damage markers (TBARS, carbonyl levels and 8-isoprostane) in D and DH associated with a decrease in Nox 4 and p47 subunit expression and increase in antioxidant enzyme activity in both groups (SOD, catalase and GPx).
Plasma and cardiac levels of total nitrite, endothelin -1 (ET-1), and myeloperoxidase (MPO) increased in the DM group, whereas cardiac activities of catalase and superoxide dismutase (SOD) decreased.
Liver TBARS and GST increased, while AST, ALT, LDH, ALP, ACP, catalase activity (CAT) and SOD decreased in the CIH, DM and CIH‑DM groups, compared with the control group.
The aim of the present study was to analyze the alterations in the, antioxidant enzyme activities (such as superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase (CAT), glutathione peroxidase (GSH-Px) and level of glutathione (GSH) and lipid peroxidation (LPO) of wheat acutely treated with CP and DM treatments at low, high doses and their combination.
Catalase (CAT) is a major antioxidant enzyme and a number of polymorphisms in CAT have been shown to be associated with several diseases, including hypertension, diabetes mellitus, Alzheimer's disease, and vitiligo.
The levels of superoxide dismutase and catalase were higher in the FJG than in the DM group (<i>p</i> < 0.01); the malondialdehyde content and TNF-α were significantly decreased in the FJG group (<i>p</i> < 0.01).
