Poultry waste is an abundant renewable source for the recovery of several value-added metabolites with potential industrial applications. This study describes the production of protease on poultry waste, with the subsequent use of the same poultry waste for the extraction of antioxidants. An extracellular protease-producing strain was isolated from Cuddalore coast, India, and identified as Stre...

background: cancer has the highest disease-related mortality rate in iran. reduced activity of paraoxonase reported in patients with cancer may be due to a reduction in its antioxidant properties and a subsequent increased risk of developing cancer. we aimed to assess antioxidant and oxidative status in patients with cancer through measuring the activity of pon1 as an antioxidant enzyme and det...

Type2 diabetes formerly known as non insulin dependent diabetes is the most common form of hyperglycemia, insulin resistance and relative insulin deficiency. The type 2 diabetes is caused due to metabolical disorder. Oxidative stress, through production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) to develop insulin resistance, beta cell dysfunction, impaired glucose tolerance there by impairing antioxidan...

Chronic pancreatitis, K-ras oncogene mutations, and the subsequent generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) appear to be linked to pancreatic cancer. ROS have also been suggested to be mitogenic and capable of stimulating cell proliferation. Cells contain antioxidant enzymes to regulate steady state levels of ROS produced by products of metabolism. The aims of our study were to determine ant...

background: oxidation of lipids causes reduction of different properties of products that contains lipids. nowadays, there is a growing demand for the natural antioxidants due to the harmful effects of synthetic antioxidants such as bha, bht and tbhq. objective: in this study, extract of aerial parts of echinacea purpurea l. was used instead of synthetic antioxidants in cake then, antioxidant a...

Background: The mechanism of cadmium induced osteoporosis is not well understood, so in this study, we examined the toxicity of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cell (MSCs) following treatment of rats with CdCl2 in drinking water, to revile the effect of this chemical on differentiation potential of MSCs. Methods: At the end of third passage, MSCs were grown in the osteogenic medium for 21 days....

Apolipoprotein E (APOE) and oxidative damage were correlated with the risk of Alzheimer's disease (AD). Glutathione S-transferase (GST) polymorphism was proved to be associated with body antioxidant capacity and involved in the oxidative damage related chronic diseases. To explore the combined effects of APOE rs429358, rs7412 and GSTM1/T1 polymorphism on antioxidant parameters and cognition in ...
