Ποσοτικοποίηση και βιοχημική σημασία των πρωτεϊνικών θειολών στους οργανισμούς

Συντιχάκη, Ευαγγελία 28 September 2010 (has links)
Η συνεισφορά των πρωτεϊνικών θειολών στη διαμόρφωση της θειολικής οξειδοαναγωγικής κατάστασης είναι πολύ σημαντική και αλλαγές της τελευταίας μπορεί να επιφέρουν καθοριστικές μεταβολές στη κυτταρική λειτουργία. Στόχος της παρούσας μελέτης είναι η βελτίωση προηγούμενων μεθόδων ποσοτικοποίησης των πρωτεϊνικών θειολών με τη χρήση νέων αντιδραστηρίων αναγωγής δισουλφιδικών δεσμών και ανίχνευσης -SH ομάδων. Σχεδιάστηκε μια νέα φωτομετρική μέθοδος προς την κατεύθυνση της ακριβούς ποσοτικοποίησης των πρωτεϊνικών θειολών PSH, PSSP και PSSNP. Ο νέος αναγωγικός πάραγοντας που αναδείχθηκε είναι το tributylphosphine (TBP) και το νέο αντιδραστήριο- ανιχνευτής ελεύθερων -SH ομάδων, το DPS ή 4- Aldrithiol. / The protein thiols contribution in the regulation of the thiol redox status is very important and changes in the last can produce serious cell disfunction. The purpose of this study was the improvement of precedent protein thiol quantification methods using new reagents of disulfide bonds reductants and –SH group tracers. A new photometric method has been planned leading to the exact quantification of protein thiol compounds such as PSH, PSSP and PSSNP. The new reductant used is tributylphosphine (TBP) and the new free -SH tracer reagent is DPS or 4- Aldrithiol.

Associação entre metabolismo do ferro e estresse oxidativo em pacientes com doeça de Parkinson

Medeiros, Márcio Schneider January 2014 (has links)
Introdução: A fisiopatologia da doença de Parkinson está associada a lesões por estresse oxidativo/nitrosativo. O ferro encontra-se acumulado na substância negra (SN) de pacientes com DP e está relacionado com esse dano através das espécies reagentes de oxigênio (EROs) e de nitrogênio (ERNs) na reação de Fenton. EROs e ERNs são produzidas normalmente em processos celulares e inflamatórios, e controladas por sistemas antioxidantes. Objetivo: Avaliar níveis periféricos de ferro em pacientes com DP para determinar se acúmulo na SN está relacionado com níveis elevados no sangue. Determinar biomarcadores periféricos confiáveis de estresse oxidativo/nitrosativo Métodos: Selecionados 40 pacientes com DP e 46 indivíduos controles para comparar níveis séricos de ferro, ferritina e transferrina, e de biomarcadores de estresse oxidativo/nitrosativo: superóxido dismutase (SOD), catalase, óxido nítrico (NOx), substâncias reativas ao ácido tiobarbitúrico (TBARS), tióis não-proteicos, “advanced oxidation protein products” (AOPP), “ferric reducing ability of plasma” (FRAP), NTPDases, ecto-5’-nucleotidase, adenosina deaminase (ADA), mieloperoxidase, albumina modificada pela isquemia (IMA) e vitamina C. Resultados: Níveis de ferro estavam diminuídos em pacientes com DP, enquanto ferritina e transferrina não mostraram diferença. Os biomarcadores de estresse oxidativo como TBARS, AOPP, NTPDases, IMA, mieloperoxidase, FRAP, vitamina C e tiois não-proteicos encontraram-se significativamente aumentados na DP. SOD, catalase, ecto-5’-nucleotidase não foram diferentes entre os grupos e os marcadores NOx e ADA foram significativamente aumentados nos controles. Nenhuma correlação foi encontrada entre os biomarcadores e dados sociodemográficos e de características da doença. Conclusão: Níveis plasmáticos de ferro encontram-se diminuídos em pacientes com DP comparados com controles saudáveis. Os biomarcadores TBARS, AOPP, NTPDases, IMA e mieloperoxidase mostraram-se confiáveis para lesão oxidativa, enquanto tióis não-proteicos, FRAP e vitamina C demonstram diminuição da capacidade antioxidante na DP. / Background: Parkinson’s disease (PD) pathophysiology is associated with oxidative/nitrosative stress damage. Iron accumulates in the substantia nigra (SN) of PD patients and is related to this damage along with oxygen and nitrogen reactive species (ROS, RNS) through Fenton reaction. ROS and RNS are normally produced in cell and inflammatory processes, controlled by antioxidant systems. Objective: To determine peripheral levels of iron, ferritin and transferrin in PD patients to evaluate whether iron accumulation in the SN could be related to serum levels. To determine reliable peripheral biomarkers of oxidative/nitrative stress. Methods: Forty PD patients and 46 controls were selected to compared serum levels of iron, ferritin, transferrin and oxidative/nitrative stress biomarkers: superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase, nitric oxide (NOx), thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS), non-protein thiols, advanced oxidation protein products (AOPP), ferric reducing ability of plasma (FRAP), NTPDases, ecto-5’-nucleotidase, adenosine deaminase (ADA), myeloperoxidase, ischemic-modified albumin (IMA) and vitamin C. Results: Iron levels were decreased in patients with PD, while ferritin and transferrin were not different. Oxidative stress biomarkers, TBARS, AOPP, NTPDases, IMA, myeloperoxidase, FRAP, vitamin C and non-proteic thiols were significantly higher in PD. SOD, catalase, ecto-5’-nucleotidase were not different between the groups and biomarkers NOx and ADA were significantly increased in the controls. No correlation was found between biomarkers and sociodemographic and disease data. Conclusion: Plasmatic levels of iron are decreased in patients with PD compared to healthy controls. Biomarkers TBARS, AOPP, NTPDases, IMA and myeloperoxidase presented as reliable to measure oxidative/nitrative damage, while non-proteic thiols, FRAP and vitamin C show a decrease in the antioxidant capacity in PD.
