Vaginal smears for phase of estrous cycle determination, serum levels of sex androgens, lipid profile, oxidative stress parameters and histopathology of ovarian tissues were investigated.Results: Diestrous cycle days treated with CRE (group III) or PGE (group IV) decreased significantly (p < 0.05) compared to PCOS control animals (group II).

Sources of ROS imbalance are variable but include dysregulation of redox mediators leading to either insufficient ROS removal or increased ROS production. Therapeutic exploitation of redox mediators is being explored in other cardiovascular conditions, with potential application to TAA warranting further investigation.Conclusion: Oxidative stress occurs in genetically triggered TAA, but the precise contribution of ROS to pathogenesis remains incompletely understood.

We investigated the role of redox-imbalance in neuronal damage by a relative low dose of Docetaxel (DTX).Methods: The neuroblastoma cells (SH-SY5Y cells) were exposed to DTX at a dose of 1.25 nM for 6 h. Antioxidant defenses (i.e. ascorbic acid, glutathione, and catalase) and lipid oxidation products (i.e. F2-isoprostanes) were evaluated. To investigate cell ultrastructure and tubulin localisation, transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and immunofluorescence techniques were applied.Results: In the SH-SY5Y cells, DTX induced a significant reduction of total glutathione (P < 0.001) and ascorbic acid (P < 0.05), and an increase in both total F2-Isoprostanes (P < 0.05) and catalase activity (P < 0.05), as compared to untreated cells. Additionally, TEM showed a significant increase in cells with apoptotic characteristics. Immunolocalisation of tubulin showed a compromised cytoskeletal organisation.Discussion: The investigated sublethal dose of DTX, to which non-targeted cells may be exposed throughout the duration of chemotherapy treatment, induces a redox imbalance resulting in a specific modulation of the antioxidant response. This study provides new insights into DTX-induced cellular mechanisms useful for evaluating whether the concomitant use of antioxidants associated with chemotherapy mitigates chemotherapy side effects in cancer survivors.","PeriodicalId":21096,"journal":{"name":"Redox Report","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":3.8,"publicationDate":"2021-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/13510002.2021.1884802","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"25350361","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
