EUK-8 is a salen manganese complex that exhibit potent antioxidant activities. EUK-8 is a superoxide dismutase (SOD) that inhibits amyloid fibril formation, including islet amyloid polypeptide (IAPP), β-amyloid and lysozyme amyloid aggregation. It appears that EUK-8 disrupts the pre-formed amyloid fibrils. EUK-8 increases the viability of the SK-N-MC cells exposed to preformed IAPP fibrils.

Increased levels of reactive oxygen species (ROS) play a vital role in the pathogenesis of various diseases. Thus, antioxidants would play pivotal roles in the therapy of ROS-induced diseases. Regarding this fact, in the present study, we compared the relative
We are reporting the synthesis, characterization, and calf thymus DNA binding studies of novel chiral macrocyclic Mn(III) salen complexes S-1, R-1, S-2, and R-2. These chiral complexes showed ability to bind with DNA, where complex S-1 exhibits the highest DNA
The aim of this study was to investigate whether superoxide dismutase (SOD) enzymes and ascorbate play a role in the protection of the nitrergic relaxation against superoxide anion inhibition in the mouse duodenum. The effects of exogenous SOD, N,No-bis(salicylidene) ethylenediamine

This article reviews the recent progress made in asymmetric catalysis in the nanopores of mesoporous materials and periodic mesoporous organosilicas (PMOs). Some examples of chiral catalysts within the nanopores show improved catalytic performance compared to homogeneous catalysts. The factors including
Oxidative stress, an imbalance between endogenous levels of oxygen radicals and antioxidative defense, increases with aging. However, it is not clear which of these two factors is the more critical. To clarify the production of oxygen radicals increases with age
