Abstract:

The central thesis of this project is that damage caused by reactive nitrogen species, e.g. 3-nitrotyrosine (Tyr-NO2), constitutes a marker of disease progression/severity. A new sensitive electrochemiluminescence ELISA was optimised and validated for Tyr-NO2 measurement, giving a lower limit of quantification of 0.04 nM BSA-NO2, intra- and inter-assay CVs of 6.5% and 11.3%, an average recovery of 106 ± 3% and average linearity 0.998 ± 0.001. Nitrative stress, carbonyl stress and C-reactive protein (CRP) concentrations were measured before and after major elective surgery. CRP measurements con

Abstract:

ADM is a 52-amino acid peptide which carries out multiple biological functions in cardiovascular system such as vasodilation and hypotension, and is a prognostic marker for cardiovascular diseases.

Recent research has proposed that inflammation and oxidative stress both contribute to the pathogenesis of diabetes. If ADM is a marker in diabetes, it is possible that ADM is regulated by these two mechanisms, and so this project aims to investigate ho

Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a multifactorial and systemic disease driven by inflammation and oxidative stress, predominantly caused by smoking, but exacerbated by infection and pollution.

Vitamin D, more commonly known for its importance in calcium and phosphorus homeostasis, has now been established as an important immunomodulatory agent. Recent studies have shown vitamin D deficiency to be associated with reduced lung function and COPD disease severity. Equal

Abstract:

Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is caused by prolonged cigarette smoke (CS) exposure. Increased oxidative stress produced by elevated oxidants, derived from cells and CS, or reduced anti-oxidant response is reported in COPD patients. Chronic inflammation is another key characteristic of COPD which persists long after smoking cessation. This suggests that oxidative stress may affect the course of inflammatory gene expression through changes in epigenetic modifications such as DNA and histone methylation and histone acetylation.

Rupture of atherosclerotic plaque is one of the primary causes of death due to cardiovascular disease. The factors directing plaque progression to instability are poorly understood.

Studies have shown that both mechanical stress and markers of inflammation are increased in the fibrous cap and shoulder regions of plaque, where rupture most often occurs.

Two thirds of American adults are overweight and almost half of those qualify as obese. Obesity independently increases risk for cardiovascular disease (CVD), type II diabetes (T2D), and hypertension; thus, strategies to reduce risk in this population are desperately needed. Oxidative stress and inflammation are two perpetuators of these chronic diseases that are often elevated in obesity. Interventions that target reductions in oxidative stress and inflammation may help to reduce co-morbidities associated with obesity. Weight loss is shown to reduce oxidative stress and inflammation.

Abstract:

Cigarette smoking is a major risk factor in the development of age-related chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) with chronic airway inflammation as a key feature. Currently, no effective treatment can reduce the protracted inflammation in the lung of COPD. Further research on the inflammatory mechanisms would therefore be important in determining new potential therapeutic targets in COPD. Serotonin (5-hydroxytryptamine, 5-HT) is a neurotransmitter that plays an important role in pulmonary functions and inflammatory responses. The serotoninergic system including serotonin trans

Abstract:

Exhaled breath condensate (EBC) collection, is a non-invasive method of measuring airways inflammation. This thesis records the development of a portable and reusable EBC collection system and its use in health and disease to determine ranges of EBC nitrate and nitrite (NOx) and glutathione (GSH) concentration; additionally the effect of direct and ambient air pollution exposure on NOx and GSH in EBC and nasal lavage NALF) was examined. Preliminary experiments revealed a collection time of 15 minutes with a system employing Teflon® tubes provided mean EBC volumes of 1.94±0.58m1. EBC NOx found

Abstract:

Adrenal gland, as an important effector tissue of the sympathetic nervous system, has critical roles in cardiovascular system under both chronic hypoxia (CH) and intermittent hypoxia (IH) conditions. Nitric oxide (NO), synthesized by nitric oxide synthases (NOS), is the most important intracellular signaling molecule, as well as free radical in response to hypoxia. Yet the regulation and effects of endogenous NO production mediated in the adrenal medulla induced by hypoxia remains largely unknown. We first studied how endogenous NO production were regulated by different NOS in rat adrenal med
