To evaluate the relationship between oxidative stress markers and increased intraocular pressure in experimental glaucoma.In vivo chemiluminescence (CL), total antioxidant capacity (TRAP), nitrite concentration (NC), lipid peroxidation (TBARS) were evaluated. Wistar rats (n=18 for each time point) underwent operation, two episcleral veins cauterized.Decreases of 22%, 35%, 27% at 7, 15, 30 days an increase 22% 60 CL observed glaucomatous eyes. In optic nerve, TBARS values 6.9+/-0.5 nmol/mg...

Purpose: The aim of this study was to evaluate oxidative stress markers in human conjunctival epithelial cells (IOBA-NHC) exposed diesel exhaust particles (DEP). Methods: Reactive oxygen (ROS) and nitrogen (RNS) species production; hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) levels; protein oxidation; antioxidant enzymes activities (superoxide dismutase [SOD], catalase [CAT], glutathione peroxidase [GPx], S-transferase [GST], reductase [GR]); total reactive potential (TRAP); reduced (GSH) oxidized (GSSG) were...

Abstract. Purpose: The goal of the present study is to establish antioxidant status in brain a high pressure–induced rat model. Methods: Ocular hypertension was induced rats ( n = 12) cauterizing two episcleral veins under surgical microscope. A sham procedure performed control group. markers evaluated 7 days after surgery were as follows: spontaneous chemiluminescence, protein carbonylation, nitrite concentration, total reactive potential (TRAP), ascorbic acid, glutathione, vitamin E and...
