The sensitive assay method was developed for a parallel, rapid and precise determination of the most prominent oxidative stress biomarkers: 8-iso-prostaglandin F(2α) a lipid oxidation biomarker, o-tyrosine an amino acid oxidation biomarker and 8-hydroxy-2'-deoxy-guanosine a nucleic acid oxidation biomarker. The

Oxidative stress is implicated in the death of dopaminergic neurons in Parkinson's disease and in the 1-methyl-4-phenyl-1,2,3, 6-tetrahydropyridine (MPTP) model of Parkinson's disease. Oxidative species that might mediate this damage include hydroxyl radical, tyrosyl radical, or reactive nitrogen species such

Phenylalanine is converted to para- and ortho-tyrosine by hydroxyl free radical, or to para-tyrosine by the phenylalanine hydroxylase enzyme. The aim of this study was to measure para- and ortho-tyrosine in the urine and plasma of patients with chronic renal

We have examined the effect of short-term triiodothyronine (T3) administration on reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation by leukocytes in 9 euthyroid subjects. At a dose of 60 microg/d orally for 7 days, T3 induced a significant increase in ROS generation
