Antioxidant status in asthma

Pediatric Pulmonology, 1994
AbstractReduced levels of glutathione peroxidase (GSH‐Px) have been observed in adults with asthma. This study examines the antioxidant status in children with asthma compared with a control group in a cross‐sectional analysis. Red blood cell GSH‐Px, superoxide dismutase (SOD), and plasma concentrations of retinol, vitamin C, alpha tocopherol, and ...

Antioxidant status in hyperphenylalaninemia

Clinica Chimica Acta, 1998
Abnormal oxidative stress was observed in some inborn errors of metabolism owing to the accumulation of toxic metabolites leading to excessive free radical production and to the influence of restricted diets on the antioxidant status. Erythrocyte antioxidant enzymes activities and tocopherol concentrations were measured in a group of phenylketonuric (n

Resistance Training, Antioxidant Status, and Antioxidant Supplementation

International Journal of Sport Nutrition and Exercise Metabolism, 2019
Resistance training is known to promote the generation of reactive oxygen species. Although this can likely upregulate the natural, endogenous antioxidant defense systems, high amounts of reactive oxygen species can cause skeletal muscle damage, fatigue, and impair recovery.

Antioxidant status in anorexia nervosa

International Journal of Eating Disorders, 1999
The study of the antioxidant status in female adolescents (N = 82) with anorexia nervosa, by the measurement of erythrocyte tocopherol concentration, and the determination of activities of the main antioxidant enzymes: superoxide dismutase, catalase, glutathione peroxidase, and glutathione reductase.Tocopherol was measured by high-performance liquid ...

Antioxidant status in patients with psoriasis

Cell Biochemistry and Function, 2013
Psoriasis is a chronic inflammatory skin disease with an unknown aetiology that has been associated with abnormal plasma lipid metabolism and oxidative stress. There are controversial results in the previous studies investigating oxidant/antioxidant systems in psoriasis.The aim of this work was to evaluate the plasma levels of malondialdehyde (MDA ...

Serum antioxidant status in hypobetalipoproteinaemia

Atherosclerosis, 1997
Hypobetalipoproteinaemia is a rare autosomal dominant condition, characterised by low serum cholesterol concentrations. The exact biochemical defect is not known although truncated forms of apolipoprotein B have been described [1]. Some of the complications seen in hypobetalipoproteinaemia are thought to be due to fat soluble vitamin deficiency and ...

Current status of antioxidant therapy

Free Radical Biology and Medicine, 1993
There is evidence that free radical damage contributes to the aetiology of many chronic health problems such as emphysema, cardiovascular and inflammatory diseases, cataracts, and cancer. In this review we are not concerned with tissue damage in vivo induced directly by radicals from exogenous sources, such as air pollutants and tobacco smoke, high ...

Antioxidant Status in Thyroid Dysfunction

Clinical Chemistry and Laboratory Medicine, 2002
Our study was designed to test and compare the levels of enzymatic antioxidants (ARS), endogenous peroxides (POX), non-enzymatic antioxidants (Antiox-cap) and anti-oxidized low-density lipoprotein (LDL) antibody titers (oLAb) in hyperthyroid and hypothyroid patients.
