TLDR
Hydrogen peroxide stimulated the autoxidation and superoxide dismutase inhibited the hydrogen peroxide-induced oxidation, results which suggest the participation of hydrogenperoxide in autoxidated and in the generation of superoxide radical.

Anthocyanin-Biofortified Colored Wheat Prevents High Fat Diet-Induced Alterations in Mice: Nutrigenomics Studies.

TL;DR: The results suggest that the incorporation of colored wheat (especially black wheat) in the diet can prevent obesity and related metabolic complications.

Astaxanthin attenuates oxidative stress and inflammatory responses in complete Freund-adjuvant-induced arthritis in rats

TL;DR: Oral administration of ATX exhibited significant anti-arthritic activity via enhancing the nociceptive threshold, reducing paw edema and improving arthritis scores, which could be attributed to its anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties.

Montelukast potentiates the protective effect of rofecoxib against kainic acid-induced cognitive dysfunction in rats

TL;DR: The present study emphasizes the positive modulation of cysteinyl leukotriene receptor inhibition on COX (cyclooxygenase) and LOX (lipoxygenases) pathways in the control of the neuroinflammation in kainic acid induced cognitive dysfunction in rats.
Journal ArticleDOI

Bergenin attenuates renal injury by reversing mitochondrial dysfunction in ethylene glycol induced hyperoxaluric rat model.

TL;DR: Evidence is provided that bergenin exerted protective effects in hyperoxaluria through mitochondrial protection that involves attenuation of oxidative stress and presented itself as an effective remedy in combating urolithiasis.

Possible antioxidant and neuroprotective mechanisms of FK506 in attenuating haloperidol-induced orofacial dyskinesia.

TL;DR: FK506 could be a useful drug for the treatment of neuroleptic-induced orofacial dyskinesia after co-administration of FK506 dose dependently significantly reduced the lipid peroxidation and restored the decreased glutathione levels induced by chronic haloperidol treatment.

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.

The Role of Superoxide Anion in the Autoxidation of Epinephrine and a Simple Assay for Superoxide Dismutase

TL;DR: It is proposed that the autoxidation of epinephrine proceeds by at least two distinct pathways, only one of which is a free radical chain reaction involving O2- and hence inhibitable by superoxide dismutase.

The Generation of Superoxide Radical during the Autoxidation of Hemoglobin

TL;DR: Clostridial and spinach ferredoxins, reduced enzymatically by the action of ferredoxin-TPN+ oxidoreductase, have been shown to carry out the univalent reduction of oxygen.
Journal ArticleDOI

The generation of hydrogen peroxide, superoxide radical, and hydroxyl radical by 6-hydroxydopamine, dialuric acid, and related cytotoxic agents.

TL;DR: The results point to a reaction between H2O2 and O2- (Haber-Weiss reaction) as a major source of the ·OH radicals and to a combined action of blocking ·OH formation as well as accelerating its removal.
