Oxidative Stress and Anti-oxidative Defense in Schoolchildren Residing in a Petrochemical Industry Environment
(Indian Acad Pediatrics, New Delhi, 2010)
Objective: To evaluate the possible relationship between industrial air pollution and oxidative stress in schoolchildren by comparing parameters from children residing in two nearby localities with contrasting environmental ...
Unexpected effect of dry olive leaf extract on the level of DNA damage in lymphocytes of lead intoxicated workers, before and after CaNa(2)EDTA chelation therapy
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, Oxford, 2017)
The CaNa(2)EDTA chelation therapy is often practiced with antioxidant supplementation. Dry olive leaf extract (DOLE) is natural product with antioxidant and DNA protective properties. The effects of DOLE on the levels of ...
Polychlorinated biphenyls as oxidative stress inducers in liver of subacutely exposed rats: Implication for dose-dependence toxicity and benchmark dose concept
(Academic Press Inc Elsevier Science, San Diego, 2015)
Hepatotoxicity is one of the well-documented adverse health effects of polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs)persistent organic pollutants widely present in the environment. Although previous studies suggest possible role of ...
Increased oxidative stress and cytokinesis-block micronucleus cytome assay parameters in pregnant women with gestational diabetes mellitus and gestational arterial hypertension
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, Oxford, 2017)
We investigated whether gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) and gestational arterial hypertension (GH) are associated with increased oxidative stress and DNA damage. Study included 3 groups of pregnant women (GDM, GH and ...
Subacute alcohol and/or disulfiram intake affects bioelements and redox status in rat testes
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, Oxford, 2017)
The aim of the study was to investigate if alcohol and disulfiram (DSF) individually and in combination affect bioelements' and red-ox homeostasis in testes of the exposed rats. The animals were divided into groups according ...
Insight into the oxidative stress induced by lead and/or cadmium in blood, liver and kidneys
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, Oxford, 2015)
Besides being important occupational hazards, lead and cadmium are nowadays metals of great environmental concern. Both metals, without any physiological functions, can induce serious adverse health effects in various ...
Oxidative stress and paraoxonase 1 status in acute ischemic stroke patients
(Elsevier Ireland Ltd, Clare, 2015)
Objective: The connection of oxidative stress with dyslipidemia creates a newly-emerging atherosclerosis risk factor involved in acute ischemic stroke development. This study analyzed the influence of oxidative stress on ...
Evaluation of cytogenetic and DNA damage in human lymphocytes treated with adrenaline in vitro
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, Oxford, 2015)
Catechol groups can be involved in redox cycling accompanied by generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) which may lead to oxidative damage of cellular macromolecules including DNA. The objective of this investigation ...
Older age and HDL-cholesterol as independent predictors of liver fibrosis assessed by BARD score
(Edizioni Minerva Medica, Turin, 2019)
BACKGROUND: It is known that non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), and in particular non-alcoholic steatohepatitis, can progress to advanced fibrosis. However, pathophysiological mechanisms implicated in this evolution ...
Long-term effects of chromium on morphological and immunological parameters of Wistar rats
(Elsevier, 2019)
AbstractHexavalent chromium raises high concern because of its wide industrial applications and reported toxicity. Long-term (135 days) oral exposure of Wistar rats to chromium in the form of K2Cr2O7 (exposed group~20 mg/kg/day) ...
