extremely low frequency (elf) electromagnetic field (elf-emfs) are widely employed in electrical appliances and different equipment such as television sets, elf-emfs can  affect biological systems by increasing production  ros. the altered balance between ros generation and elimination plays a critical role in a variety of pathologic conditions. ros levels have been observed in several hematopo...

Seizure activity has been proposed to result in the generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS), which then contribute to seizure-induced neuronal damage and eventually cell death. Although the mechanisms of seizure-induced ROS generation are unclear, mitochondria and cellular calcium overload have been proposed to have a crucial role. We aim to determine the sources of seizure-induced ROS and ...

background , despite numerous studies over a decade, it still remains controversial about the biological effects of rf emf emitted by mobile phone telephony. objective , here we investigated the effect of 900 mhz gsm on the induction of oxidative stress and the level of intracellular reactive oxygen species (ros) in human mononuclear cells, monocytes and lymphocytes as defence system cells. met...

objective(s):many studies have reported that tea consumption decreases cardiovascular risk, but the mechanisms remain unclear. green tea is known to have potent antioxidant and free radical scavengingactivities. this study aimed to investigate whether green tea extract (gte) can protect endothelial progenitors cells (epcs) against oxidative stress through antioxidant mechanisms. materials and m...

objective(s): exposing to stress may be associated with increased production of reactive oxygen species (ros). therefore, high level of oxidative stress may eventually give rise to accumulation of oxidative damage and development of numerous neurodegenerative diseases. it has been presented that brain-derived neurotrophic factor (bdnf) supports neurons against various neurodegenerative conditio...

background: this case-control study was designed with the aim of evaluating the role of sperm, oxidative stress and dna damage in idiopathic recurrent pregnancy loss (irpl). this pilot study is the first study done on the indian population which reports the association between dfi, tac and ros in couples experiencing irsa. methods: twenty infertile men with a history of irpl and 20 fertile cont...

introduction: the impact of chromium exposure was studied on liver, kidney, testis, spleen, cerebrum and cerebellum of male wistar rats (80-100 g body weight). material & method: it was observed that treatments of rats with chromium (i.p. at a dose of 0.8 mg / 100 g body weight per day) for a period of 28 days caused significant increase in chromium content while declining the body weight along...
