Antioxidant Status of Erythrocytes after Acupuncture Treatment

Bulletin of Experimental Biology and Medicine, 2004
A course of acupuncture therapy in patients with locomotor, peripheral nervous system, gynecological, and bronchopulmonary diseases led to complete or partial normalization of nonspecifically changed MDA content, catalase and glutathione peroxidase activities in erythrocytes.

Antioxidant Therapy: Current Status and Future Prospects

Current Medicinal Chemistry, 2011
Reactive oxygen species (ROS) are widely believed to cause or aggravate several human pathologies such as neurodegenerative diseases, cancer, stroke and many other ailments. Antioxidants are assumed to counteract the harmful effects of ROS and therefore prevent or treat oxidative stress-related diseases.

Antioxidant status in rheumatoid arthritis and role of antioxidant therapy

Clinica Chimica Acta, 2003
Oxygen free radicals have been implicated as mediators of tissue damage in patients of rheumatoid arthritis (RA). This study was designed to elucidate plasma oxidant/antioxidant status in rheumatoid arthritis, with the aim of evaluating the importance of antioxidant therapy in the management of this disease.The study included 40 patients of rheumatoid ...

Genetic Determinants of Dietary Antioxidant Status

2012
Oxidative stress refers to a physiological state in which an imbalance between pro-oxidants and antioxidants results in oxidative damage. Oxidative stress has been associated with the development of numerous chronic diseases such as type 2 diabetes, cardiovascular disease (CVD), osteoporosis, and cancer.

Antioxidant status in MgO nanoparticle-exposed rats

Toxicology and Industrial Health, 2012
In this present study, antioxidant status was evaluated in rat serum following exposure to magnesium oxide (MgO) nanoparticles. The lungs of rats were intratracheally instilled with (single dose) phosphate-buffered saline (PBS) + 1% of Tween 80 (solvent control) or MgO or carbonyl iron (negative control) or quartz particles (positive control) at a ...

Blood oxidant/antioxidant status of atherosclerotic patients

International Journal of Cardiology, 2001
In the present study, it is aimed to investigate oxidant/antioxidant status of plasma and erythrocytes from atherosclerotic patients and to establish the possible role of oxidant stress in the formation and progression of atherosclerosis. Antioxidant potential (AOP) values and malondialdehyde (MDA) levels were studied in erythrocyte and plasma samples ...

Antioxidant Status in Vascular Dementia

2015
Vascular dementia (VaD) is the second most common form of dementia. Different studies have indicated that patients with VaD have increased levels of local and systemic oxidative stress markers. Furthermore, in vivo and clinical experiments have demonstrated that the administration of antioxidants via foods and/or supplementation therapies significantly

[Sex hormones and antioxidant status].

Medizinische Klinik (Munich, Germany : 1983), 1997
Physiologically, an influence of sex steroids on the antioxidative capacity can be seen at least as a short-term effect. First of all the steroid effects are due to the estrogen component rather than the progestin component. The antioxidative potential of natural estrogens is several times higher than that of vitamin E.

[Antioxidant status after surgical stress].

Infusionstherapie (Basel, Switzerland), 1991
Trauma and anaesthetics are responsible for local and general change in the organism. The characteristic changes in metabolism are caused by hormones. In addition, the increased glycogenolysis, gluconeogenesis, proteolysis and lipolysis are characteristic of this catabolic metabolism.
