Abstract excerpt
A model of rabbit tracheal epithelial (RTE) cells in primary culture was used to characterize specific and repair responses of airway epithelial cells to oxidative stress. Two well-known reactive oxygen species (ROS) generating systems were used: H(2)O(2) alone or in combination with Fe(2+) to produce the hydroxyl radical. RTE cells exhibited lipid peroxidation when exposed to H(2)O(2) + Fe(2+). Moreover,...
