In individuals with Down syndrome, neutrophil apoptosis increases and Cu, Zn-SOD is overexpressed.[38] Exogenous H 2 O 2 together with SOD, increase the number of apoptotic neutrophils.[39] SOD may serve as an inhibitory agent of neutrophil-mediated inflammation and may stand for a novel therapeutic approach for the ROS-dependent tissue damage induced by neutrophils through several mechanisms.[2] Preclinical studies with bovine Cu, Zn-SOD showed encouraging results for its use as a human therapeutic agent in acute and chronic inflammatory conditions, including dermatosis due to burn and wound injury.[40,41] Extracellular SOD, Mn-SOD and Cu, Zn-SOD have been described as potential inhibitor of inflammation by various reporters.[42-44] SOD and CF CF is characterized by the chronic inflammation and the recruitment of activated neutrophils.[45] In the plasma of patients with CF, SOD activity was significantly lower as compared with the healthy individuals.[46] Furthermore, in mononuclear, polymorphonuclear, and red cells of CF patients, reduced Cu, Zn-SOD activity was observed.[47] It has been found that the antifibrotic action of Cu, Zn-SOD is mediated by TGF-1 repression followed by phenotypic reversion of myofibroblasts.[48] Radiation-induced fibrosis of breast was significantly reduced by Cu, Zn-SOD.[49] Proapoptotic agents induced apoptosis in CF but not in control cells that were reduced by treatment with SOD mimetic.[50] These findings indicate new therapeutic possibilities targeting antioxidant pathways including SOD, so that oxidative stress and apoptosis can be reduced in CF cells, and proinflammatory response can be limited
