Relationship between Dietary Total Antioxidant Capacity and Oxidative Stress Markers in Patients with Knee Osteoarthritis
Background and purpose: Considering the pathologic importance of oxidative stress in osteoarthritis (OA), this study aimed to investigate the association between dietary total antioxidant capacity (DTAC) and oxidative stress markers in patients with knee OA. Materials and methods: In a cross-sectional study, dietary intakes of 152 patients with knee OA attending health centers in Zabol, Iran (...
متن کاملDiet Antioxidant Capacity: Relationships to Oxidative Stress and Health
This review will discuss some of the antioxidant assays and biomarkers/measurements used to assess the effect of dietary components on ameliorating in vivo oxidative stress. Although the development of dietary antioxidants has become a major component of the dietary supplement market, this review will focus on foods (primarily fruits and vegetables) and their impact on biomarkers of oxidative s...
متن کاملOxidative Stress and Antioxidant Defense
Reactive oxygen species (ROS) are produced by living organisms as a result of normal cellular metabolism and environmental factors, such as air pollutants or cigarette smoke. ROS are highly reactive molecules and can damage cell structures such as carbohydrates, nucleic acids, lipids, and proteins and alter their functions. The shift in the balance between oxidants and antioxidants in favor of ...
متن کاملOxidative Stress and Antioxidant System in Periodontitis
Periodontitis is a common inflammatory disease, which is initiated by bacterial infection and subsequently progressed by aberrant host response. It can result in the destruction of teeth supporting tissues and have an influence on systemic health. When periodontitis occurs, reactive oxygen species, which are overproduced mostly by hyperactive neutrophils, could not be balanced by antioxidant de...
متن کاملGender difference in systemic oxidative stress and antioxidant capacity in current and former heavy smokers.
BACKGROUND Several studies suggested that women may be more susceptible to oxidative damage induced by cigarette smoking, but the role of smoking status and antioxidant capacity in gender difference in susceptibility to oxidative damage has not been well studied. METHODS We conducted a cross-sectional analysis of the baseline data from 146 current and former heavy smokers enrolled in a chemop...
