Fluoride and oxidative stress in postmenopausal women
–Fluorosis is a serious public health problem in many parts of the world where drinking water contains more than 1 ppm of fluoride. Higher intake of fluoride will result in dental and skeletal fluorosis and affect collagen synthesis and bone mineralization. Approximately 99% of the body burden of fluoride is associated with calcified tissues. The fluoride concentration in bone is not uniform. F...

متن کاملAge related changes in indices of bone metabolism and oxidative stress in Postmenopausal women in Southern Nigeria
Background and Objectives: Oxidative stress (OS) associated with estrogen deficiency in menopause has been implicated in various complications of menopause. Some indices of OS, bone metabolism, and uric acid (UA) in postmenopausal women were assessed as possible predictors of gouty osteoarthritis. Materials and Methods: This case-control study enrolled 40 postmenopausal women and 60 premenopau...
متن کاملUCP2, oxidative stress and atherosclerosis
Vascular dysfunction in response to reactive oxygen species (ROS) plays an important role in the development and progression of atherosclerotic lesions. In most cells, mitochondria are the major source of cellular ROS during aerobic respiration. Under most conditions the rates of ROS formation and elimination are balanced through mechanisms that sense relative ROS levels. However, a chronic imb...
