Antioxidant enzymes activities in obese Tunisian children
BACKGROUND The oxidant stress, expected to increase in obese adults, has an important role in the pathogenesis of many diseases. It results when free radical formation is greatly increased or protective antioxidant mechanisms are compromised. The main objective of this study is to evaluate the antioxidant response to obesity-related stress in healthy children. METHODS A hundred and six health...

متن کاملAltered Activities of Antioxidant Enzymes in Patients with Metabolic Syndrome
OBJECTIVE In the pathogenesis of the metabolic syndrome (MetS), an increase of oxidative stress could play an important role which is closely linked with insulin resistance, endothelial dysfunction, and chronic inflammation. The aim of our study was to assess several parameters of the antioxidant status in MetS. METHODS 40 subjects with MetS and 40 age- and sex-matched volunteers without MetS...
متن کاملAntioxidant, antimutagenic, tanning and calpain induction activities of methanolic extract of Tunisian plant (Moricandia arvensis)
In this study, we investigate the potential of Moricandia arvensis methanol leaf extract (MeOHL) on calpain activity, melanin biosynthesis and DNA mutagenicity. Cytotoxic effect and measurement of reactive oxygen species (ROS) induced by lucigenin in colorectal cells (BE) were also determined. In addition the chemical analysis of the extract was also studied and the chemical profile illustrates...
متن کاملA Comparative Study between Different Tunisian Propolis Essential Oils and Their Antioxidant Activities
Propolis is a resinous substance collected by bees from plants with a complex and variable chemical composition. Propolis and its fractions possess multiple biological activities. This study focused on a chemical and statistical comparison between four Tunisian Propolis Essential Oils (PEO) and its antioxidant activities. Volatile oils were extracted by hydrodistillation a...
