Polyphenols represent a group of secondary metabolites plants which have been analyzed as potent regulators multiple biological processes, including cell proliferation, apoptosis, and autophagy, among others. These natural compounds exhibit beneficial effects protection against inflammation, oxidative stress, related injuries metabolic diseases, such cardiovascular damage, obesity diabetes, neu...

Citrullinated synovial antigens and the antibodies produced against them play a important role in the path physiology of RA[1]. Anti-CCP antibody positivity seems to be associated with increased synovial fluid oxidant activity (increased MDA and MPO levels) in patients with RA[2]. Excessive free radical production rather than impaired antioxidant enzymes activity due to autoantibody inhibition ...

OBJECTIVE The oxidative stress in 20 sickle cell anemia patients taking hydroxyurea and 13 sickle cell anemia patients who did not take hydroxyurea was compared with a control group of 96 individuals without any hemoglobinopathy. METHODS Oxidative stress was assessed by thiobarbituric acid reactive species production, the Trolox-equivalent antioxidant capacity and plasma glutathione levels. ...

The biological activities of propolis are varied from plant sources and the prominent antioxidant effects of Chinese propolis (poplar type) have been extensively reported. Oxidative stress is associated with inflammation and induces many diseases. In the study, to evaluate antioxidant capacities and clarify the underlying molecular mechanisms of ethanol extracts of Chinese propolis (EECP) and e...

Immune defense involves inflammatory reactions in which immune cells produce reactive oxygen species (ROS) to fight pathogens. ROS may however cause damage to the host if they are not balanced by antioxidant defenses. Therefore, one should expect individuals undergoing an immune reaction to use antioxidants to prevent oxidative stress. Antioxidants are vital compounds that provide important pro...

The body's immune system is one of the natural defenses in human body, functioning to ward off various diseases, including those that emerged after Covid-19 pandemic. One plant with potential as an antioxidant and easily found environment watermelon. Jam made from watermelon rind secang wood, formulations, namely 100% rind: 0% (F1), 90% 10% (F2), 80% 2% (F3), 70% 3% (F4), expected possess good ...
