Oxidative stress and amyloidosis.
From recent findings concerning free radical injury in several types of amyloidosis, it appears that free radical injury is involved either amyloid formation or in post-fibrillar modification. As we show in this review, among the more than 20 different types of amyloidosis, only a few types of amyloidosis present direct evidence of free radical ...

Oxidative Stress: A Key Modulator in Neurodegenerative Diseases
Oxidative stress is proposed as a regulatory element in ageing and various neurological disorders. The excess of oxidants causes a reduction of antioxidants, which in turn produce an oxidation–reduction imbalance in organisms.

Intervention to Improve Biosecurity System of Poultry Production Clusters (PPCs) in Thailand
Widespread outbreaks of avian influenza occurred in 2004–2005. The outbreaks resulted in extensive losses for the poultry sector in East and South East Asia. Thailand suffered a tremendous impact from the disease.

Oxidative Stress and Platelets [PDF]
Platelet-dependent thrombus formation may be influenced by alteration of platelet or vascular redox state, the presence of endogenous or exogenous antioxidants, as well as the formation of reactive oxygen and nitrogen species. Specifically, settings and pathways that influence the formation of superoxide and nitric oxide, as well as their metabolism ...

Oxidative stress and apoptosis
Apoptosis or programmed cell death, is essential for the normal functioning and survival of most multi-cellular organisms. The morphological and biochemical characteristics of apoptosis, however, are highly conserved during the evolution. It is currently believed that apoptosis can be divided into at least three functionally distinct phases, i.e ...

Genome-wide localization of the polyphenol quercetin in human monocytes
Background Quercetin is a polyphenol of great interest given its antioxidant activity and involvement in the immune response. Although quercetin has been well studied at the molecular level as a gene regulator and an activator of specific cellular ...

Hyperinsulinemia and oxidative stress
The aim of the study was to compare the effect of short-term hyperglycemia and short-term hyperinsulinemia on parameters of oxidative stress in Wistar rats. Twenty male rats (aged 3 months, average body weight 325 g) were tested by hyperinsulinemic clamp (100 IU/l) at two different glycemia levels (6 and 12 mmol/l).

Oxidative stress, dysfunctional glucose metabolism, and Alzheimer disease
Alzheimer disease (AD) is a major cause of age-related dementia. We do not fully understand AD aetiology and pathogenesis, but oxidative damage is a key component. The brain mostly uses glucose for energy, but in AD and amnestic mild cognitive impairment
