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 ...
Association of paraoxonase 1 and oxidative stress with acute kidney injury in premature asphyxiated neonates
(Elsevier Ireland Ltd, Clare, 2017)
Objectives: Acute kidney injury (AKI) is defined as a decrease in glomerular filtration rate with an increase in serum creatinine (sCr). Perinatal asphyxia (PNA) may be etiological factor for AKI with oxidative stress also ...
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 ...
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 ...
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 ...
The Association of Serum Iron-Binding Proteins and the Antioxidant Parameter Levels in Age-Related Macular Degeneration
(Taylor & Francis Inc, Philadelphia, 2018)
Purpose: Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is the leading cause of the irreversible central visual loss among the elderly in the developed countries. Iron is considered a potent generator of the oxidative damage whose ...
Long-term effects of chromium on morphological and immunological parameters of Wistar rats
(Elsevier, 2019)
Abstract
Hexavalent 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) ...

Hyperlipidemia, oxidative stress, and intima media thickness in children with chronic kidney disease
(Springer, New York, 2013)
The roles of dyslipidemia and oxidative stress in the early phases of atherosclerosis were tested in children with chronic kidney disease (CKD). Intima media thickness of common carotid arteries (cIMT) is used as a measure ...
