Supraphysiological reactive oxygen species (ROS) has been linked to a variety of diseases, including cancer, inflammation, and neurodegeneration. One the diseases pathophysiologically associated with ROS accumulation is canine distemper (CD). The purpose this study was compare lipid peroxidation antioxidant biomarkers in dogs infected virus (CDV) healthy dogs. animals consisted total 20 dogs, 1...

 ABSTRACT Background: Dietary antioxidant intake has been reported to be inversely associated with coronary miery disease. To clarify the possible role oflipophilic antioxidants in the prevention of atherosclerosis, we investigated the effects ofubiquinol-1 0 and ~-carotene on the susceptibility oflow-density lipoprotein(LD L) to oxidative modification. Methods: In this study, first "u...

N-Phthaloyl GABA was administrated daily (50 mg/Kg body weight-i.p) to Wistar rats for 21 days and circadian rhythms of thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS) and antioxidants such as reduced glutathione (GSH), catalase (CAT) and superoxide dismutase (SOD) were studied under constant light (LL) conditions. Delayed acrophase of TBARS and advanced acrophase of antioxidants (GSH, CAT and ...

Docosahexaenoic acid (DHA, 22:6 n-3), a polyunsaturated fatty acid found in fish oil, exerts cytotoxic effects on cancer cells. Although DHA was toxic toward five human cancer cell lines (MCF-7, MDA-MB-231, SiHa, Raji, and DHL-4), the lines were not uniformly sensitive. DHL-4, a bcl-2 overexpressing lymphoid line, was the most sensitive (IC50, 5.2 micromol/L) and the cervical cancer cell line, ...

INTRODUCTION Accruing evidence suggests that vitamin E-coated membranes (ViE-m) might improve the clinical management of chronic hemodialysis (HD) patients. METHODS We conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis of RCTs comparing ViE-m to conventional HD. Endpoints of interest were a series of biomarkers pertaining to anemia status, inflammation, oxidative stress and dialysis efficacy/sta...

The purpose of the present work was to evaluate the influence of polyphenols supplementation of diet during the last period of fattening (30 days) on oxidative process and chemical composition of pork and dry sausage. Material and methods. At slaughtering 36 samples of Biceps femoris (BF) muscle from heavy pigs fed control diet or supplemented diet with a natural extract of Verbenaceae (Ajute) ...

Irradiated red ginseng powder (2.4 kg) in commercial bottles was transported from Korea to Iowa State University (USA) via air(10 days) and sea-cargos (50 days) to prove its qualities and identity. The microbial loads of transported samples by both methods after 5 kGy irradiation were reduced from 10 to 10CFU/g in total aerobic bacteria and from 20CFU/g (minimum detection level) to negative in ...

The commonly-accepted “oxidized LDL hypothesis of atherogenesis” is based on a large number of indirect evidence that shows that oxidatively-modified LDL plays a role in atherogenesis. Yet, the exact role is not clear. Some researchers think that oxidatively modified biomolecules initiate atherogenesis; others believe that they “only” promote this multifactorial process. Regardless of the exact...

Effect of processing conditions like time and temperature of processing and methods of cooking on physico-chemical and textural attributes of shami kebab were studied. Shami kebab was deep fat fried at 120°C for 5 min and 170°C for 2 min and grilled at 140 and 180°C for 5 and 3 min respectively. Variation in cooking yield do not differ significantly (p < 0.05) at 120°C deep fat frying and 180°C...
