Exhaustive physical exercise causes oxidation of glutathione status in blood: prevention by antioxidant administration.
Juan Sastre,Miguel Asensi,Esperanza Gasco,Federico V. Pallardó,Ferrero Ja,Tadayasu Furukawa,Jose Viña +6 more
TL;DR: In rats, physical exercise caused an increase in blood GSSG levels that were 200% higher after physical exercise than at rest, and antioxidant administration, i.e., oral vitamin C, N-acetyl-L-cysteine, or glutathione is effective in preventing oxidation of the blood glutATHione pool after physical Exercise in rats.
Journal ArticleDOI
L-cysteine and glutathione metabolism are impaired in premature infants due to cystathionase deficiency.
Jose Viña,Máximo Vento,Fernando Garcia-Sala,Inmaculada R. Puertes,Esperanza Gasco,Juan Sastre,Miguel Asensi,Federico V. Pallardó +7 more
TL;DR: The metabolic flow through the transsulfuration pathway may be insufficient to meet the glutathione and cysteine requirements of very premature infants.
Journal ArticleDOI
Impairment of cysteine synthesis from methionine in rats exposed to surgical stress.
TL;DR: The activity of liver cystathionase was decreased after 3 d of stress induced by surgery, and l-cysteine synthesis from l-methionine was significantly higher in isolated hepatocyte from controls than in hepatocytes from rats suffering from surgical stress.
Journal ArticleDOI
Age-related changes in glutathione synthesis in the eye lens.
TL;DR: GSH monoethyl ester, but not free GSH, increases GSH content and protects the lens against experimental oxidative stress and the importance of these results in the prevention of cataractogenesis is discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effect of aging on metabolic zonation in rat liver: acinar distribution of GSH metabolism.
Juan Sastre,Joaquín V. Rodríguez,Federico V. Pallardó,Esperanza Gasco,Miguel Asensi,Jose V. Ferrer,Jaime Miquel,Jose Viña +7 more
TL;DR: The effect of age on the glutathione antioxidant system and its acinar distribution in rat liver was studied and no change with age was found in hepatic zonation of glutATHione reductase and glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase.
