- چکیده انگلیسی: Objective(s): Paraplegia is deterioration in motor or sensory function of the lower limbs that can occur after modification of a thoracoabdominal aortic aneurysm. The purpose of this survey was to determine the protective action of lutein on spinal cord ischemia-reperfusion (I-R) damage.
Materials and Methods: Thirty-five male rats were distributed into five groups: intact, sham, dimethyl sulfoxide (I-R+DMSO), low dose lutein (I-R+0.2 mg/kg lutein), and high dose lutein (I-R + 0.4 mg/kg lutein). Thirty minutes before surgery, a single dose lutein or DMSO was administered to rats of experimental groups. Next, the abdominal aorta was clamped exactly under the left renal artery and proximal to the abdominal aortic bifurcation for 60 min. All animals were evaluated by neurological function and histological and biochemical examinations at 72 hr after I-R.
Results: The mean motor deficit index (MDI) scores in lutein groups were lower compared with the DMSO group (P<0.001). Plasma level of malondialdehyde in lutein groups decreased compared with the DMSO group (P<0.05). Plasma level of total antioxidative capacity was increased in the high lutein group compared with low dose lutein and sham groups (P<0.05). Mean number of normal motor neurons in lutein groups was greater compared with the DMSO group (P<0.001). There was a significant negative correlation between MDI scores and the number of normal neurons (r= -0.764, P<0.001).
Conclusion: Findings of the present study demonstrate that lutein may support spinal cord neurons from I-R damage.- انتشار مقاله: 02-12-1396

- چکیده:
- چکیده انگلیسی: Objective: The etiology of multiple myeloma (MM) is not known. Enzymes such as xanthine oxidase (XO) and NADPH oxidase 1 (NOX1) as relevant sources of reactive oxygen species (ROS) production may play a crucial role in the incidence and progress of MM. Uric acid generated by XO has a controversial dual role in both the prevention and promotion of cancer. We conducted a case-control study and selected patients with stage I MM to investigate the status of XO, NOX1, and uric acid in the patients and controls. Methods: We used a sample of 33 patients with stage I MM and 30 healthy controls. The enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) measured the enzyme concentration of XO and NOX1, and the colorimetric method measured the serum level of uric acid. Results: Mean serum levels for XO in patients and controls were 6.17±0.83 ng/ml and 4.12±0.57 ng/ml (P<0.001). serum levels of NOX1 were 4.35±1.03 ng/ml in patients and 3.54±0.91 ng/ml in controls (P<0.001). Evaluating the levels of XO and NOX1 in male and female populations showed a significant difference in the male population (NOX1 P=0.002; XO P<0.001) and female population (NOX1 P=0.002; XO P<0.001). Also, a significant correlation was observed between the two enzymes only in the female population (Pearson correlation=0.5; P=0.006). A significant inverse correlation found between albumin and XO (Pearson correlation=-0.7, P<0.001) and NOX1 (Pearson correlation=-0.5, P<0.001). XO was correlated with B2-m (Pearson correlation=0.37, P=0.003). There was no significant difference in uric acid between patients (6.2±1.2 mg/dl) and controls (5.7±1 mg/dl) (P=0.2), and no correlation was found with XO. Conclusion: The present study indicates the possible role of XO and NOX 1 in the etiology of MM. Although we found no correlation between uric acid and XO, further studies will help clarify the function of uric acid in the pathogenesis of MM.
