## Abstract Arsenic, a notoriously poisonous metalloid, is ubiquitous in the environment, and it affects nearly all organ systems of animals including humans. The present study was designed to investigate the preventive role of a triterpenoid saponin, arjunolic acid against arsenicβinduced oxidativ

Ascorbic acid (AH2) is a potential scavenger of superoxide radical and singlet oxygen. In the guinea pig, marginal AH2 deficiency results in intracellular oxidative damage in the cardiac tissue as evidenced by lipid peroxidation, formation of fluorescent pigment and loss of structural integrity of t
Heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) is a stress protein induced in response to a variety of oxidative challenges. After treatment of the hybrid septal cells SN 56 with β€-amyloid peptide (β€-AP 1-40 ) or hydrogen peroxide (H 2 O 2 ), we detected high levels of reactive oxygen species, accompanied by a significant
High plasma levels of linoleic acid (18:2) may injure endothelial cells, resulting in decreased barrier function of the vascular endothelium. The effects of linoleic acid on endothelial barrier function (transendothelial movement of albumin), membrane-bound enzyme activities, and possible autooxidat
