the aim of this cross-sectional study was to explore the association of crystalline silica aerosols exposure with malondialdehyde in blood serum and urinary neopterin and explore their potential as biomarkers of their external exposure. nonsmoking and healthy male glass sandblasters and control population were randomly selected for this study. all groups were monitored for their personal exposu...

background: diazinon (dzn) is an organophosphate pesticide that widely used for agricultural pest control all over the world. dzn affects target organs including reproductive system by inhibiting the activity of acetylcholinesterase and inducing oxidative stress. vitamin e (α-tocopherol) is a strong antioxidant which inhibits free radicals, and probably can reduce lipid perxidation effectively ...

abstract background: recent studies have suggested that oxidative stress (os) may have a contribution in the pathogenesis of endometriosis. however, the results of previous studies regarding os in endometriosis are controversial. the objective of this study was to compare the serum levels of os markers in endometriosis versus the control group. methods: this case-control study was carried out o...

Background: Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a widespread public health problem, which may have several adverse consequences such as renal failure, cardiovascular disease, and premature death. Kidney-related pathologies increasing prevalence rates, produce considerable financial burden, are characterized by elevated levels of oxidative stress (OS). Several markers emerged well-suited indicators ...

Elevated malondialdehyde (MDA) levels indicate the occurrence of cell membrane oxidation. Calorie restriction is known to extend life expectancy. This study aims investigate effect calorie on MDA in young and old rats. An experimental approach was employed using Rattus norvegicus Wistar strain as animals, with a pre-post-test control group design. A total 28 white rats were included this divide...
