Erythrocyte superoxide dismutase (SOD: EC 1.15.1.1), catalase (EC 1.15.1.6), glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G-6-PD: EC 1.1.1.49), reduced glutathione (GSH) and malonyldialdehyde (MDA) were studied in 27 patients with chronic and 11 patients with acute renal failure. A comparison with 15 age- and sex-matched healthy subjects showed that patients with both acute and chronic renal failure had significantly low G-6-PD (p less than 0.05) values whereas SOD, catalase and MDA showed significantly elevated levels (p less than 0.05). After adequate dialysis or renal transplantation the SOD, G-6-PD, catalase and MDA values returned to normal. The findings suggest that the erythrocyte SOD, catalase, and G-6-PD can undergo an adaptive alteration which however appears reversible.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D007676 Kidney Failure, Chronic The end-stage of CHRONIC RENAL INSUFFICIENCY. It is characterized by the severe irreversible kidney damage (as measured by the level of PROTEINURIA) and the reduction in GLOMERULAR FILTRATION RATE to less than 15 ml per min (Kidney Foundation: Kidney Disease Outcome Quality Initiative, 2002). These patients generally require HEMODIALYSIS or KIDNEY TRANSPLANTATION.

D005978 Glutathione A tripeptide with many roles in cells. It conjugates to drugs to make them more soluble for excretion, is a cofactor for some enzymes, is involved in protein disulfide bond rearrangement and reduces peroxides.
