Exploring the efficiency of methemoglobin reductase and glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase in maintaining the hemoglobin auto-oxidation-mediated oxidative imbalance among different grades of cigarette smokers
CONTEXT: The most prevalent cytosolic protein in erythrocytes, hemoglobin (Hb), autoxidizes to its met form on its own and produces superoxide, a powerful source of intracellular reactive oxygen species. The rate of auto-oxidation is directly associated with the physicochemical characteristics of Hb...
