α-Lipoic acid (αLA), as an inductor of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) and nitrogen oxide (NO) generation and modulator of thiol redox status, plays an important role in cell signalling pathways. The study was designed to observe the effect of αLA on inflammatory response through changes in H2O2 and NO levels as well as thiol redox status. Sixteen physically active males were randomly assigned to one of...
Sporotrichosis is often manifested as a chronic granulomatous infection and the monocytes/macrophages play a central role in the host defense system. Surface components of Sporothrix schenckii have been characterized and suggestions have been made as to their possible role in pathogenicity. Ergosterol peroxide, cell-wall compounds (alkali-insoluble fraction-F1 and lipid extract-LEY), and exoantigen...
Bothrops jararaca venom (BjV) causes severe systemic and local reactions, characterized by an acute inflammatory reaction with accumulation of leukocytes and release of endogenous mediators. The systemic and local effects of BjV were compared in lines of mice genetically selected for maximal (AIR max ) or minimal (AIR min ) acute inflammatory reactivity (AIR). The...
