Abstract:
:CuZnSOD is produced in overdose in cells with trisomy 21. This has been considered to be a cause of increased oxidative stress. In the present work we have studied the catalase and glutathione peroxidase activity in fibroblasts from 6, and blood cells from 30, subjects affected by Down syndrome. In the fibroblasts, catalase and glutathione peroxidase activities did not differ significantly from control cells. In platelets, lymphocytes, polymorphs and erythrocytes, no significant increase of catalase activity was found while glutathione peroxidase activity appeared significantly increased in platelets, polymorphs and erythrocytes but not in lymphocytes. These data seem to indicate that the increase of CuZnSOD in trisomy 21 cells does not affect the production of catalase. An increase, instead, of glutathione peroxidase has been detected in all blood cells, except in lymphocytes; this is a sign of a greater need for protection against the risk of lipoperoxidation. The fact that the enhancement of glutathione peroxidase activity could be assessed only in some types of cells examined suggests that the observed increase in those cells is probably a result of an additive effect of the overproduction of CuZnSOD due to gene dosage and the ordinarily higher content of oxygen radicals and peroxides.
