PMID: 28454225
Oncol Lett. 2017 Mar;13(3):1137-1142. doi: 10.3892/ol.2016.5535. Epub 2016 Dec 27.

Reactive oxygen species (ROS) are chemical species that alter redox status, and are responsible for inducing carcinogenesis. The purpose of the present study was to assess the effects of the glutathione S transferase-activated nitric oxide donor prodrug, JS-K, on...

Cell Signaling in Mesothelial Cells by Asbestos: Evidence for the Involvement of Oxidative Stress in the Regulation of the Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor.

Inhalation toxicology

Faux SP, Houghton CE.
PMID: 26368632
Inhal Toxicol. 2000 Jan;12:327-36. doi: 10.1080/08958378.2000.11463242.

Asbestos has been shown to stimulate the mitogen-activated protein kinase signaling cascade after autophosphoryiation of the epidermal growth factor recptor (EGF-R), an event important in regulating the response of cells to extracellular signals. In studies reported here, we have...

Effects of N-acetylcysteine (NAC) supplementation in resuscitation fluids on renal microcirculatory oxygenation, inflammation, and function in a rat model of endotoxemia.

Intensive care medicine experimental

Ergin B, Guerci P, Zafrani L, Nocken F, Kandil A, Gurel-Gurevin E, Demirci-Tansel C, Ince C.
PMID: 27671340
Intensive Care Med Exp. 2016 Dec;4(1):29. doi: 10.1186/s40635-016-0106-1. Epub 2016 Sep 26.

BACKGROUND: Modulation of inflammation and oxidative stress appears to limit sepsis-induced damage in experimental models. The kidney is one of the most sensitive organs to injury during septic shock. In this study, we evaluated the effect of N-acetylcysteine (NAC)...

Nintedanib: evidence for its therapeutic potential in idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis.

Core evidence

Inomata M, Nishioka Y, Azuma A.
PMID: 26346347
Core Evid. 2015 Aug 27;10:89-98. doi: 10.2147/CE.S82905. eCollection 2015.

Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is a progressive disease with poor prognosis. The molecular mechanisms involved in the progression of IPF are not fully understood; however, the platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF)/PDGF receptor pathway is thought to play a critical role...

Vitamin D deficiency causes insulin resistance by provoking oxidative stress in hepatocytes.

Oncotarget

Tao S, Yuan Q, Mao L, Chen FL, Ji F, Cui ZH.
PMID: 28978056
Oncotarget. 2017 Jun 28;8(40):67605-67613. doi: 10.18632/oncotarget.18754. eCollection 2017 Sep 15.

Vitamin D deficiency could cause insulin resistance. However, the underlying mechanisms are unclear. The 1α-Hydroxylase ["1α(OH)ase"] is a key enzyme for activate vitamin D3 synthesis. Here, we show that 1α(OH)ase stable knockdown by targeted shRNA led to vitamin D3...

Data Brief. 2016 Jun 23;8:618-27. doi: 10.1016/j.dib.2016.06.018. eCollection 2016 Sep.

This article contains data on the variation in several physiological parameters of red blood cells (RBCs) donated by eligible glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) deficient donors during storage in standard blood bank conditions compared to control, G6PD sufficient (G6PD(+)) cells. Intracellular...

Evaluation of the protective effect of N-acetylcysteine on contrast media nephropathy.

Journal of renal injury prevention

Pezeshgi A, Parsamanesh N, Farhood G, Mahmoodi K.
PMID: 26693496
J Renal Inj Prev. 2015 Sep 01;4(4):109-12. doi: 10.12861/jrip.2015.23. eCollection 2015.

INTRODUCTION: Intravenous contrast agents can cause acute decline in kidney function, especially in patients with risk factors.OBJECTIVES: In this study, we aimed to examine the ameliorative effect N-acetylcysteine (NAC) to reduce the incidence of contrast nephropathy.PATIENTS AND METHODS: This...

Effect of Thiol-reducing Agents and Antioxidants on Sulfasalazine-induced Hepatic Injury in Normotermic Recirculating Isolated Perfused Rat Liver.

Toxicological research

Heidari R, Esmailie N, Azarpira N, Najibi A, Niknahad H.
PMID: 27123164
Toxicol Res. 2016 Apr;32(2):133-40. doi: 10.5487/TR.2016.32.2.133. Epub 2016 Apr 30.

Sulfasalzine is a widely administered drug against inflammatory-based disorders in human. However several cases of liver injury are associated with its administration. There is no stabilized safe protective agent against sulfasalazine-induced liver injury. Current investigation was designed to evaluate...

Clinical Trial of 24 Hours' Treatment with Glutathione Precursors in Acute Pancreatitis.

Clinical drug investigation

Sharer NM, Scott PD, Deardon DJ, Lee SH, Taylor PM, Braganza JM.
PMID: 27519198
Clin Drug Investig. 1995 Sep;10(3):147-57. doi: 10.2165/00044011-199510030-00003.

The depletion of thiols in pancreatic acinar cells, as a consequence of oxidative stress, seems to underlie acute pancreatitis. Therefore, immediate parenteral treatment with agents to refurbish tissue thiols should accelerate recovery. We tested this hypothesis in a randomised...

An adolescent case of sulfhemoglobinemia associated with high-dose metoclopramide and N-Acetylcysteine.

Annals of emergency medicine

Langferd JS, Sheikh S.
PMID: 28140071
Ann Emerg Med. 1999 Oct;34(4):538-541.

We describe the case of an adolescent girl who received high-dose metoclopramide in combination with oral N-acetylcysteine therapy for acute acetaminophen toxicity. Whole blood-sample analysis for abnormal hemoglobin pigments established the diagnosis of sulfhemoglobinemia. Metoclopramide has been shown to...
