Computerisation and microprocessing within urology.

Abstract

Computing and microprocessing have become part of everyday life but medical applications have been patchy. Urologists have recognised that computing can facilitate the handling of data and appointment systems. More recently, urodynamic and patient interviewing programs have been developed. The Urological Computing Society formed in 1987 provides a forum for co-ordinating developments.

Molecular orbital study on the glutathione-dependent detoxication of ozonides.

The present paper describes a theoretical study on the mechanism underlying the reaction of cellular glutathione (GSH) with polyunsaturated fatty acid ozonides. The reaction can be catalyzed by glutathione S-transferases and leads to detoxication of the ozonides. Semi-empirical molecular orbital computer calculations suggest that the reaction of glutathione with ozonides involves a nucleophilic attack at one of the carbon atoms of the ozonide ring, instead of at one of the peroxidic oxygen atoms of the ozonide ring. This implies a mechanism different from that of the glutathione S-transferase-mediated reaction with hydroperoxides, previously proposed for the glutathione-dependent detoxication of fatty acid ozonides.
