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.

Effects of curcumin on angiotensin- converting enzyme gene expression, oxidative stress and anti-oxidant status in thioacetamide-induced hepatotoxicity

TL;DR: Curcumin treatment restores hepatocytes, damaged by TAA, and protects liver tissue approaching cirrhosis, as well as reducing the oxidative stress marker lipid peroxidation in animals.

Neuroprotective Effect of Lycopene Against PTZ-induced Kindling Seizures in Mice: Possible Behavioural, Biochemical and Mitochondrial Dysfunction.

TL;DR: The neuroprotective potential of lycopene is demonstrated in PTZ‐induced kindling in mice by demonstrating its attenuated kindling score, reversed oxidative damage and restored mitochondrial enzyme complex activities as compared with control.

Novel Molecular Hybrids of N-Benzylpiperidine and 1,3,4-Oxadiazole as Multitargeted Therapeutics to Treat Alzheimer's Disease.

TL;DR: Multitargeted hybrids of N-benzylpiperidine and substituted 5-phenyl-1,3,4-oxadiazoles were designed, synthesized, and evaluated against Alzheimer's disease and affirmed their consensual binding interactions with PAS-AChE and aspartate dyad of BACE-1.

Modulation of lipid peroxidation and antioxidant defense systems in rat intestine by subchronic fluoride and ethanol administration.

TL;DR: It is suggested that fluoride and ethanol exposure induces considerable changes in lipid peroxidation, antioxidant defense, and morphology of rat intestine, which may affect its functions.

The hepatoprotective potential of Spirulina and vitamin C supplemention in cisplatin toxicity

TL;DR: Light microscopy showed that cisplatin treatment induced liver injury and that histopathological abnormalities were prevented by Spirulina and vitamin C supplementation, and this protective effect was further substantiated by the estimation of antioxidant levels and extent of lipid peroxidation.

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.
