abstract diabetes mellitus is one of the major metabolic disorders. diabetes is recognized for severe complications including diabetic nephropathy, neuropathy and retinopathy. long-lasting effect of hyperglycemia results in increased oxidative stress. oxidative stress results from an imbalance between radical-generating and radical scavenging systems. increased oxidative stress has been shown t...

Variation in lipid peroxidation levels are observed in different diseases. Many studies have shown that increased lipid peroxidation is associated with occurrence of some diseases. The aim of present effort was to review the role of lipid peroxidation in different clinically important diseases like diabetes, renal failure and hypothyroid function. This review showed that there is possible assoc...

introduction: electromagnetic fields (emfs) can influence the biological system by the formation of free radicals in cells. the emfs are able to deteriorate defense system against free radicals that leads to oxidative stress (os). lipid peroxidation process (lpo) is an index of oxidative stress, and the malandialdehyde (mda) is the final product of lpo. vitamin e is the most important antioxida...

conclusions maximal and supra-maximal races induce a significant increase in lipid peroxidation and cause non-negligible inflammation and muscle damage. these effects were relatively related to the physical exercise type and the sportive specialty. results a significant increase in malondialdehyde (mda) concentrations was observed in ss and mdr after the vameval test and in ldr after the limite...

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. to...

strenuous aerobic exercise is associated with oxidative stress and tissue damage. therefore, we have investigated the effects of exercise and eicosapentaenoic acid supplementation, with or without vitamin e, on the plasma levels of vitamin c, e and a, il-6, and glutathione peroxidase activity in basketball players. thirty four male basketball players, enrolled in the study. subjects received 2g...

background: the aim of the present study was to evaluate the radioprotective effect of grewia asiatica fruit pulp extract (gae) on swiss albino mice exposed to gamma radiation. in the present study radioprotective efficacy of grewia asiatica (rich in anthocyanin, carotenes, vitamin c, etc.) was studied against radiation induced biochemical alterations in mice cerebrum. materials and methods: fo...

4-Hydroxy-2-nonenal, an indicator of lipid peroxidation process. was used as model marker to explore ceftriaxone-induced lipid peroxidation in goat liver homogenate. Ceftriaxone was found to induce lipid peroxidation significantly. It was further found that ascorbic acid could significantly arrest ceftriaxone-induced lipid peroxidation. The results corroborate the earlier findings with malondia...

the antioxidant properties of ruta graveolens l. were evaluated by two different methods; free radical scavenging using dpph and inhibition of lipid peroxidation by the ferric thiocyanate method. the ic50 value of the methanol extract in dpph inhibition was 200.5 μg/ml which was acceptable in comparison with bht (41.8 μg/ml). in thiocyanate method, the plant extract demonstrated activity as muc...

Lipid peroxidation can be defined as the oxidative deterioration of lipids containing any number of carbon-carbon double bonds. Lipid peroxidation is a well-established mechanism of cellular injury in both plants and animals, and is used as an indicator of oxidative stress in cells and tissues. Lipid peroxides are unstable and decompose to form a complex series of compounds including reactive c...
