Mechanisms of oxidant-induced changes in erythrocytes

Abstract: There is an increasing body of experimental studies demonstrating the toxic effects of oxygen-derived free radicals. Evidence supports an important role for free radicals in ischemic injuries, inflammation, and chemical-induced tissue injury. Free radicals are involved in normal biochemical processes like oxidative reduction and cellular metabolism; however, they also mediate disease processes. The participation of oxygen free radicals in lysis of red cells is important in some situations of intravascular hemo… Show more

“…Embora as ERMO possam ser mediadoras de doenças, sua formação nem sempre é deletéria, como na defesa contra a infecção, quando a bactéria estimula os neutrófilos a produzirem espécies reativas com a finalidade de destruir o microorganismo 7,8 . Contudo, poderão ocorrer vários eventos nosológi-cos, se houver estímulo exagerado na produção dessas espécies, e a ele estiver associada uma falha da defesa antioxidante (ver quadro na página seguinte).…”

“…, ClO -, H 2 O 2 , and ONOO -, is produced. The damage of erythrocytes, for example by thermal injury-induced hemolysis, can also be accomplished by the activation of neutrophils [6]. On the other hand, in different pathological situations, erythrocytes are a potential source of RONS due to autoxidation of hemoglobin which leads to formation of superoxide anions and hydroperoxides [7][8][9].…”

“…Methemoglobin reductase (MHR) is an erythrocyte cytosolic system responsible for reactivating haemoglobin's ability to transport oxygen after it has been converted into methemoglobin by reactive oxygen species (Board & Pidcock, 1981;Hatherill, Till & Ward, 1991). Transmembrane reductase of ferricyanide (TMR) expresses the existence of an erythrocyte transmembrane redox system responsible for, among others, recycling antioxidants (Hatherill et al, 1991;May, Qu & Morrow, 1996;Orringer & Roer, 1979).…”
