We studied the effects of the CuZn superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase (CAT), and glutathione (GSH) on endothelial permeability to 'L51-albumin after activation of neutrophils (PMN) with phorbol 12-myristate-13-acetate (PMA; 1 O-8M). PMN were either in direct contact with the endothelial cell monol

The late onset of necrosis and fibrosis in normal tissues can be a serious consequence of radiotherapy in cancer patients. Because radiation-induced vascular injury precedes the tissue damage, vascular injury is regarded as crucial in the pathogenesis of tissue damage. An understanding of the proces
## Abstract Naphthalene is metabolized in the lung and liver to reactive intermediates by cytochrome P450 enzymes. These reactive species deplete glutathione, covalently bind to proteins, and cause necrosis in Clara cells of the lung. The importance of glutathione loss in naphthalene toxicity was i
