Reactive oxygen species generation and use of antioxidants during in vitro maturation of oocytes: a Review
In vitro maturation (IVM) is emerging as a popular technology at the forefront of fertility treatment and preservation. However, standard in vitro culture conditions usually increase reactive oxygen species (ROS), which have been implicated as one of the major causes for reduced embryonic developmental competence. It is well-known that higher than physiological levels of ROS triggers granulosa ...
متن کاملCuscuta campestris induces apoptosis by increasing reactive oxygen species generation in human leukemic cells
Objective: Cuscuta campestris or common dodder is a holoparasitic plant that has been valorized for treatment of liver injury and cancer prevention in traditional medicine. Recently, extract of C. campestris had shown moderate antimicrobial properties and cytotoxic effects. In this study, we examined the level of cellular oxidants, cytotoxicity, apoptosis and differentiation induced by hydr...
متن کاملReactive Oxygen Species (Ros) Generation in Sepsis
Sepsis and septic shock remain as leading cause of death in adult intensive care units. It is widely accepted that sepsis and septic shock are caused predominantly by gram-negative bacteria and their endotoxins. Endotoxin or Lipopolysaccharide (LPS) have important roles as host responses and trigger the inflammatory processes, caused by gram-negative bacterial infection. Production of oxygen ra...
