L-carnosine alters some hemorheologic and lipid peroxidation parameters in nephrectomized rats
BACKGROUND Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a major health problem worldwide. Oxidative stress is one of the mediators of this disease. Systemic complications of oxidative stress are involved in the pathogenesis of hypertension, endothelial dysfunction, shortened erythrocyte lifespan, deformability, and nitric oxide (NO) dysfunction. L-carnosine is known as an antioxidant. In this study, our aim...
متن کاملDehydroepiandrosterone alters vitamin E status and prevents lipid peroxidation in vitamin E-deficient rats
In humans, dehydroepiandrosterone and its sulfate ester metabolite DHEA-S are secreted predominantly from the adrenal cortex, and dehydroepiandrosterone is converted to steroid hormones, including androgens and estrogens, and neurosteroid. Dehydroepiandrosterone exerts protective effects against several pathological conditions. Although there are reports on the association between dehydroepiand...
متن کاملDiaphragmatic lipid peroxidation in chronically loaded rats.
Recent work indicates that free radical-mediated lipid peroxidation takes place within the diaphragm on strenuous contraction. This phenomenon has only been demonstrated using fairly artificial experimental models and has not been studied during the type of sustained respiratory loading typically seen in patients with lung disease. The purpose of the present study was to measure the levels of s...
متن کاملLipid peroxidation in rats chronically fed ethanol.
Chronic alcohol consumption induces cytochrome P450IIE1, enabling habitual abusers to consume far greater quantities of alcohol than normal subjects. This pathway of metabolism leads to the production of free radical species, which cause tissue damage through peroxidation of cell membranes. Groups of Wistar rats of equal male: female ratio (n = 24) were fed alcohol by gavage twice daily to achi...
متن کاملRELATIONSHIP OF SPERM PARAMETERS WITH LIPID PEROXIDATION IN ASTHENOZOOSPERMIC AND NORMOZOOSPERMIC MALES
Background: The lipid peroxides and their degradation products are highly toxic to spermatozoa and may play a major role in sperm dysfunction. The purpose of this study was to determine the level of lipid peroxidation as indicated by malondialdehyde (MDA) in the spermatozoa and seminal plasma of asthenozoospermic and normozoospermic males. In addition, correlation of lipid peroxidation with mot...
