Allergic asthma has a global prevalence, morbidity, and mortality. Many environmental
factors, such as pollutants and allergens, are highly relevant to allergic asthma. The most …

Drought is considered one of the most acute environmental stresses presently affecting
agriculture. We studied the role of exogenous glutathione (GSH) in conferring drought stress …

Hydrogen sulfide (H 2 S) is well known to cause irritation and damage to airway following
inhalation, but the mechanism by which H 2 S contributes to airway toxicity is unclear. In …

Objective To investigate the molecular redox mechanisms in allergic asthma and to examine
current studies of the disease to provide a basis for further investigation of oxidative stress in …

The lung is a unique organ, as it is constantly exposed to air and airborne pollutants
including oxidant gases such as highly reactive nitrogen dioxide and ozone, particulates …

Glutathione is a major redox buffer, reaching millimolar concentrations within cells and high
micromolar concentrations in airways. While glutathione has been traditionally known as an …

Background Chemotherapy is frequently used in cancer treatment; however, it may cause
adverse events, which must be managed. Reactive oxygen species (ROS) have been …

Asthma oxidative stress disturbances seem to enable supplementary proinflammatory
pathways, thus contributing to disease development and severity. The current study …

Obesity and insulin resistance have been associated with deterioration in asthma outcomes.
High oxidative stress and deficient activation of AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) have …
