Previous studies have shown that the enzyme copper/zinc superoxide dismutase (SOD-1) is increased in the urine of rats with carbon tetrachloride (CCl (4))-induced hepatotoxicity.

The n-BuOH fraction reduced CCl (4)-induced liver injury in rats, and transcript levels of genes encoding antioxidant enzymes such as glutathione peroxidase 1 (GPO1), glutathione peroxidase 3 (GPO3) and superoxide dismutase (SOD1) were elevated in the livers of rats treated with this fraction (500 mg/kg).

The protein was identified by in-gel digestion and nano-electrospray (nano-ES)-tandem mass spectrometry as Cu/Zn superoxide dismutase (SOD-1).

Our previous study has found that SN water extract (SNWE) alleviated carbon tetrachloride-induced liver damage in rats.
Further investigation revealed that a SNWE supplement increased the expression of glutathione S-transferase-alpha and -mu, the level of transcription factor for protection from oxidative stress, Nrf2, and the level of downstream targets regulated by Nrf2, including glutathione peroxidase, superoxide dismutase-1, and catalase.

METHODS: In vitro SOD1 efficacy was tested against two ROS-generating systems: hypoxanthine/xanthine oxidase (HX/XO) and hydroxyethyl radicals (HER), whereas in vivo SOD1 efficacy was evaluated in carbon tetrachloride (CCl4)-induced liver injury in C57BL/6 mice.
