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 ...

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 ...

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 patients with psoriasis
Cell Biochemistry and Function, 2013Psoriasis 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 ...

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

Food and Chemical Toxicology, 1999
The diet is one of the leading factors under our control affecting the antioxidant status. The effect of the diet must be considered in its totality and should include the digestive system. This chapter discusses the major dietary factors affecting antioxidant status.

Tumor progression and oxidant-antioxidant status
Cancer Letters, 1997We 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 vegetarians versus omnivores
Nutrition, 2000Every day, vegetarians consume many carbohydrate-rich plant foods such as fruits and vegetables, cereals, pulses, and nuts. As a consequence, their diet contains more antioxidant vitamins (vitamin C, vitamin E, and beta-carotene) and copper than that of omnivores. Intake of zinc is generally comparable to that by omnivores. However, the bioavailability

Antioxidant status of Fanconi anemia fibroblasts
Human Genetics, 1987Several 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 ...
