Oxidative stress, vitamin E and progestin breakthrough bleeding.
Endometrial bleeding problems can be the major reason for discontinuing progestin-only contraception. In this study the endometrial angiogenic response in Norplant users was found to be lower than in women with normal menstrual cycles. These disturbances in angiogenic response may be caused by oxidant-antioxidant imbalance in the endometrium. The aims of this study were to investigate the effec...
متن کاملVitamin E and neurodegenerative disorders associated with oxidative stress.
Several neurodegenerative disorders are associated with oxidative stress that is manifested by lipid peroxidation, protein oxidation and other markers. Included in these disorders in which oxidative stress is thought to play an important role in their pathogenesis are Alzheimer's disease (AD), Parkinson's disease (PD), amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), tardive dyskinesia, Huntington's diseas...
متن کاملOxidative stress in colon tissue induced by vitamin E depletion.
Inflammatory disorders of the bowel and colon cancer are associated with elevated indices of oxidative stress. Analogous elevations in markers of oxidative stress and loss of cell-membrane integrity are also observed in the colons of rats deficient in vitamin E (D-alpha-tocopherol), the major lipid-soluble antioxidant in biological systems. The causal relationship between colon pathologies asso...
متن کاملRole of vitamin e on oxidative stress in smokers.
Cigarette smoke contains numerous oxygen free radicals that when inhaled, overwhelm antioxidant defenses and produce a condition of oxidative stress. This study investigated whether or not supplementation with vitamin E can affect the state of oxidative stress in healthy smokers. In this randomised double blind trial, 32 smokers received 200 mg of vitamin E or placebo daily for 8 weeks. All smo...
متن کاملVitamin E supplementation reduces oxidative stress in beta thalassaemia intermedia.
OBJECTIVE The aim of this investigation was to study the effect of vitamin E treatment in oxidative stress of red and white cells of beta-thalassaemia intermedia patients. METHODS Nine patients undergoing occasional transfusions (5 females/4 males), median age 39 years (range 15-74), were recruited for oral daily administration of 400 IU vitamin E for 3 months. Twenty-seven milliliters of per...
