Antioxidant status of Fanconi anemia fibroblasts

Human Genetics, 1987
Several observations in the recent literature have indicated that Fanconi anemia (FA) cells may be primarily deficient in the detoxification of activated oxygen species. To evaluate the antioxidant status of FA fibroblasts, we measured Mn-containing superoxide dismutase (Mn-SOD), CuZn-containing superoxide dismutase (CuZn-SOD), catalase, and ...

Antioxidant status in peri- and postmenopausal women

Maturitas, 2015
Menopause is a risk factor for oxidative stress. The aim of our study is to assess antioxidant system parameters (α-tocopherol, retinol, reduced glutathione, total antioxidant activity) in peri- and postmenopausal women. The antioxidant defense activity by estimation of total antioxidant activity, α-tocopherol, retinol, oxidized and reduced glutathione

Anthocyanin Absorption and Antioxidant Status in Pigs

Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry, 2006
The effect of a simultaneous intake of food or flavonoids on anthocyanins absorption and antioxidant status in pigs was investigated. Twelve male pigs at 27.1 +/- 0.7 kg BW fitted with jugular venous cannulae were maintained in individual metabolic crates. The animals were each given one of three dietary treatments in random order: blackcurrant powder (

Antioxidant status of the rat nasal cavity

Free Radical Biology and Medicine, 2003
Despite extensive interest in the rodent nasal cavity as a target organ for toxicity, there is very limited information regarding nasal defenses against oxidative stress and xenobiotic-derived oxidants. Using immunohistochemistry, we have examined the distribution of Cu,Zn and Mn superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase, glutathione (GSH) peroxidase, and ...

Myocardial Antioxidant Status in Chronic Alcoholism

Alcoholism: Clinical and Experimental Research, 2005
Excessive ethanol intake is one of the most frequent causes of acquired dilated cardiomyopathy in developed countries. The pathogenesis is multifactorial, with the antioxidant imbalance of cardiac muscle being a potential factor. The current study evaluates myocardial antioxidant status in ethanol consumers and its relation to cardiac damage.The ...

Biosensors as a tool for the antioxidant status evaluation

Talanta, 2007
Antioxidants are one of the main ingredients that protect food attributes by preventing oxidation that occurs during processing, distribution and end preparation of food. Physiological antioxidant protection involves a variety of chemical system of endogenous and exogenous origin in a multiplicity of pathways.

Tumor progression and oxidant-antioxidant status

Cancer Letters, 1997
We previously reported on a paradoxical oxidant-antioxidant status in breast cancer patients, more so in pre-menopausal than menopausal women. In this study, measurements were performed on 146 patients with various carcinomas. Vitamin E/total cholesterol increased and plasma malondialdehyde decreased with tumor size and progression.

Antioxidant Status in Patients with Cystic Fibrosis

Annals of Nutrition and Metabolism, 2000
<i>Background:</i> The aim of the study was to assess the antioxidant status in cystic fibrosis (CF) patients compared to healthy controls. In order to determine the influence of nutrition on the level of the antioxidants, nutrient intake was also monitored in both groups at the time of the antioxidant assessment.

Antioxidant status and levels of antioxidant vitamins in coronary artery ectasia

Coronary Artery Disease, 2011
Coronary artery ectasia (CAE) is a rare coronary artery anomaly. In this study, we investigated superoxide dismutase (SOD), glutathione peroxidase (GSH-Px) and γ-glutamyltransferase (GGT) activities, and antioxidant vitamin levels (vitamins A and E) in patients with CAE.Forty-five patients who were diagnosed with CAE using coronary angiography were ...

Copper status and adriamycin treatment: effects on antioxidant status in mice

Toxicology Letters, 1989
The biochemical response of Cu-sufficient and Cu-deficient mice to adriamycin (ADR) treatment was evaluated. Mice were injected intraperitoneally with ADR (17 mg/kg body wt.) or saline (0.9% w/v) and killed 4 d after injection. There was no effect of ADR on cardiac superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity in Cu-sufficient of Cu-deficient mice. ADR injection
