Abstract

The MISAR data base system was modified for ophthalmic use. Approximately 1,165 subject records from the Glaucoma Center of Washington University were entered into this computerized registry. The system has provided a compact, accurate, and well-organized storage of medical data. Searches of the registry for specific diagnoses or for subjects who meet specific criteria have aided the performance of clinical research.

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.
