Involvement of the Superoxide Anion Radical in the Autoxidation of Pyrogallol and a Convenient Assay for Superoxide Dismutase

TL;DR: The autoxidation of pyrogallol was investigated in the presence of EDTA in the pH range 7.9–10.6, indicating an almost total dependence on the participation of the superoxide anion radical, O2·−, in the reaction.
Journal ArticleDOI

Levels of glutathione, glutathione reductase and glutathione S-transferase activities in rat lung and liver.

TL;DR: The activities of some glutathione-metabolizing enzymes were observed to be 5-to 60-fold lower in lung tissue than in the liver, and that phenobarbital nor methylcholanthrene had a significant effect on the levels of reduced glutATHione in lung and liver.

Lipid peroxidation: production, metabolism, and signaling mechanisms of malondialdehyde and 4-hydroxy-2-nonenal.

TL;DR: This review focuses on biochemical concepts of lipidPeroxidation, production, metabolism, and signaling mechanisms of two main omega-6 fatty acids lipid peroxidation products: malondialdehyde (MDA) and, in particular, 4-hydroxy-2-nonenal (4-HNE), summarizing not only its physiological and protective function as signaling molecule stimulating gene expression and cell survival, but also its cytotoxic role inhibiting geneexpression and promoting cell death.
