Serum antioxidant status in hypobetalipoproteinaemia
Atherosclerosis, 1997Hypobetalipoproteinaemia 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, 1993There 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, 2002Our 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.

Antioxidant status in rheumatoid arthritis and role of antioxidant therapy
Clinica Chimica Acta, 2003Oxygen 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 ...

Determinants of antioxidant status in humans
Lipids, 1996AbstractAntioxidant status in humans reflects the dynamic balance between the antioxidant system and prooxidants and has been suggested as a useful tool in estimating the risk of oxidative damage. This paper reviews determinants of antioxidant status such as diet including antioxidant nutrient and nonnutrient intake, absorption and bioavailabilty ...

Muscle Antioxidant Status in Chronic Alcoholism
Alcoholism: Clinical and Experimental Research, 2002Background Chronic myopathy due to excessive ethanol intake is one of the most frequent causes of acquired skeletal myopathy in developed countries. Its pathogenesis is multi‐factorial, only partially clarified, and antioxidant imbalance has been suggested to influence its development, being a type II glucolytic, fast‐twitch fiber subset more sensitive

Antioxidant Status and Cancer Mortality in China
International Journal of Epidemiology, 1992Sex-specific mortality rates for selected cancer sites (including oesophagus, stomach, liver, lung, colorectum, breast and cervix) and a variety of biochemical indicators of antioxidant status, enzyme activity and oxidative stress (including plasma levels of beta-carotene, alpha-tocopherol, ascorbic acid, selenium, glutathione peroxidase, catalase ...

Peculiarities of the antioxidant status of the thyroid gland
Bulletin of Experimental Biology and Medicine, 2007The intensity of lipid peroxidation and activity of the antioxidant system in the thyroid gland were compared with those in the liver, kidney, heart, and frontal lobes of the cerebral hemispheres in euthyroid male Wistar rats. The thyroid gland was characterized by low activity of first-line antioxidant enzymes superoxide dismutase and catalase ...

Pathophysiology and antioxidant status of patients with fibromyalgia
Rheumatology International, 2010Fibromyalgia syndrome (FMS) is characterized by systemic pain of unknown etiology and is often accompanied by various psychological symptoms. Research on different parameters in fibromyalgia (FM) indicates that multifactors are involved in its pathophysiology; such as genetic factors, substance P, serotonin, hypothalamic pituitary adrenal axis (HPA ...
