oxidation to a 6-carbon dicarboxylic acid Answer D: The next reaction in the PPP, catalyzed by 6-phosphogluconate dehydrogenase, oxidatively decarboxylates 6-phosphogluconate to the 5-carbon aldose sugar, ribulose 5-phopshate
Excessive oxidative stress has been implicated in placental dysfunction, fetal demise, and increased apoptotic activity in pregnancy disorders [18, 19]
The supplemental group (10 athletes) showed increased SOD activity and reduced levels of C-reactive proteins, a marker of oxidative stress suggesting that SOD-gliadin exerted anti-inflammatory action
