Myocardial Antioxidant Status in Chronic Alcoholism
Alcoholism: Clinical and Experimental Research, 2005Excessive 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 ...

Oxidant/antioxidant status in premenstrual syndrome
Archives of Gynecology and Obstetrics, 2010To investigate oxidant/antioxidant status in premenstrual syndrome (PMS).Study group (n = 20) consisted of PMS and control group (n = 21) consisted of normal menstruating women. The serum oxidant status was assessed by the lipid hydroperoxide (LHP), malondialdehyde (MDA) and protein carbonyl (PC); the antioxidant status was assessed by the total thiol (

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 ...

Antioxidant Therapy: Current Status and Future Prospects
Current Medicinal Chemistry, 2011Reactive 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, 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 ...

Genetic Determinants of Dietary Antioxidant Status
2012Oxidative 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, 2012In 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, 2001In 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
2015Vascular 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
