Antioxidant Effects of Vitamins C and E on the Low-Density Lipoprotein Oxidation Mediated by Myeloperoxidase
Background: Oxidative modification of low-density lipoprotein (LDL) appears to be an early step in the pathogenesis of atherosclerosis. Meanwhile, myeloperoxidase (MPO)-catalyzed reaction is one of the potent pathway for LDL oxidation in vivo. The aim of this study was to evaluate in vitro antioxidant effects of vitamins C and E on LDL oxidation mediated by MPO. Methods: MPO was isolated from f...
متن کاملRole of Vitamins C and E in Regulating Antioxidant and Pro-Oxidant Markers in Preeclampsia
WE COMPARED THREE GROUPS OF PREGNANT WOMEN: placebo with normotensive women, group A which included preeclamptics, and group B which comprised preeclamptics who were supplemented their diets with vitamins C and E. MDA increased from 6.22 +/- 2.8 (placebo) to 8.48 +/- 1.2 (A) and 8.02 +/- 1.8 nmol/gHb (B). NO concentrations were enhanced from 19.3 +/- 4.2 (P) to 23.8 +/- 6.4 (A) and 24.1 +/- 5.4...
متن کاملDepleted Antioxidant Vitamins and Enhanced Oxidative Stress in Urolithiasis
Background: Urolithiasis is the third most common urological disease with prevalence of 11% and recurrence rate of 50% and has a great impact on the economsically active population, representing significant health care cost burden. Crystal aggregation and retention are critical events for the formation of kidney stones. There is a close association between crystal development and free radical a...
متن کاملDietary Antioxidant and Oxidative Stress: Interaction between Vitamins and Genetics
Dietary antioxidants such as vitamin C, vitamin E and carotenoids play an important role in prevention and reduction of oxidative stress. Epidemiologic studies have shown a negative correlation between regular consumption of fruits and vegetables and the prevalence of some degenerative diseases [3]. The protective effect exerted by these foods has been attributed to the presence of antioxidant ...
متن کاملAntioxidant Enzymes and Oxidative Stress in the Erythrocytes of Iron Deficiency Anemic Patients Supplemented with Vitamins
Background: Iron deficiency anemia is one of the major causes of morbidity and mortality worldwide. Evidences from epidemiological and clinical studies suggest a possible correlation between antioxidant levels and the anemic disease risk. The present work is to investigate antioxidant levels and lipid peroxidation in anemic patients. Methods: A number of 30 patients (15 males and 15 females) we...
