BACKGROUND
Diethylnitrosamine (DEN) and carbon tetrachloride (CCl4) have been used as initiator and promoter respectively to establish an animal model for investigating molecular events appear to be… (More)
BACKGROUND
Chronic lead (Pb(2+)) exposure leads to the reduced lifespan of erythrocytes. Oxidative stress and K(+) loss accelerate Fas translocation into lipid raft microdomains inducing Fas mediated… (More)
Arsenic is an environmental toxicant that reduces the lifespan of circulating erythrocytes during chronic exposure. Our previous studies had indicated involvement of hypercholesterolemia and reactive… (More)
BACKGROUND
Evidence in the literature suggests that down-regulation of nitric oxide (NO) is associated with the pathophysiological conditions during visceral leishmaniasis (VL). Here we have… (More)
Oxidative stress is proposed to play a pivotal role in the development of hepatocellular carcinoma. With an accelerated metabolism cancer cells demand high reactive species accumulation to maintain… (More)
Genomic instability resulting from oxidative stress responses may be traced to chromosomal aberration. Oxidative stress suggests an imbalance between the systemic manifestation of reactive free… (More)
Cancer cells often have faulty apoptotic pathways resulting in sustenance of survivability, tumour metastasis and resistance to anticancer drugs. Alternate strategies are sought to improve… (More)
Sequelae of chronic lead (Pb(2+) ) toxicity includes anemia that is partially due to early death of erythrocytes characterized by excess accumulation of ROS and downregulation of antioxidant system… (More)
