Relationship between the Trace Element Metabolism and the AntioxidantDefence System in Chronic Nephropathies
VZŤAH MEDZI METABOLIZMOM STOPOVÝCH PRVKOVA OBRANNÝM ANTIOXIDAČNÝM SYSTÉMOMPRI CHRONICKÝCH NEFROPATIÁCH
Východisko.
Stopové prvky - zinok, meď a selén - sú súčasťou antioxidačných enzýmov superoxiddizmutázy(SOD) a glutationperoxidázy (GHPx). Pri obličkových chorobách môžu zmeny metabolizmu stopových prvkovovplyvniť rovnováhu v antioxidačnom obrannom systéme a prispievať k uplatneniu toxického účinku reaktívnychkyslíkových molekúl.Metódy a výsledky.

Overview
Background.
Trace elements - zinc, copper and selenium are part of antioxidant enzymes, superoxide dismutase(SOD) and glutathione peroxidase (GHPx). In renal diseases changes in the trace element metabolism may influencethe equilibrium in the antioxidant defence system and enhance the toxic effect of reactive oxygen molecules.Methods and Results. The authors examined in 53 children with chronic neprophathies (34 with chronicglomerulonephritis, 11 with chronic renal failure and 8 children included in a chronic dialyzation programme) zincand selenium in blood and urine and antioxidant enzymes SOD and GHPx in red blood cells. The lowest SOD activity(737 ± 219 U/g Hb, p
Key words:
SOD, GHPx, zinc, selenium, kidneys, chronic renal failure.
