The Role of Manganese Superoxide Dismutase in Inflammation Defense

Abstract: Antioxidant enzymes maintain cellular redox homeostasis. Manganese superoxide dismutase (MnSOD), an enzyme located in mitochondria, is the key enzyme that protects the energy-generating mitochondria from oxidative damage. Levels of MnSOD are reduced in many diseases, including cancer, neurodegenerative diseases, and psoriasis. Overexpression of MnSOD in tumor cells can significantly attenuate the malignant phenotype. Past studies have reported that this enzyme has the potential to be used as an anti-inflammato… Show more

“…It means that SOD content in FFS operators were used to avoid free radical as a result of FFS oxidant exposure. This result was still in line with the theory that oxidant exposure could cause the decrease of endogen antioxidant [5,6,15,16].…”

“…Mn-SOD can scavenge O2 *-and therefore mimics anti-inflammatory agent. Altered Mn-SOD levels and chronic inflammation have been associated with neurodegenerative diseases (Li and Zhou, 2011), metabolic diseases, and liver diseases (Kitada et al, 2011). Additionally, Mn-SOD participates in the mitochondrial repair processes and has a role along with p53 in preventing mitochondrial DNA damage (Bakthavatchalu et al, 2012).…”
