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

An increase of the mineralocorticoid aldosterone is induced by a stimulated renin-angiotensin system in a subgroup of hypertensive patients. Epidemiological studies find higher cancer mortality in hypertensive patients and an increased risk to develop kidney cancer. This work investigated the involv
To characterize the role of oxidative stress in cultured rat sinusoidal endothelial cells, we studied the production of superoxide after reoxygenation, the relationship of reduced glutathione (GSH) levels to cell injury, and the protective efficacy of antioxidants. Hypoxia (pO 2 1-2 mm Hg) was achie
## Abstract **Scope:** We examined whether dietary supplementation with fish oil modulates inflammation, fibrosis and oxidative stress following obstructive renal injury. **Methods and results:** Three groups of SpragueβDawley rats (__n__=16 __per__ group) were fed for 4 wk on normal rat chow (ole
