Micronutrients: oxidant/antioxidant status.
Potentially damaging species (reactive oxygen, nitrogen and chlorine species) arise as by-products of metabolism and as physiological mediators and signalling molecules. Levels of these species are controlled by the antioxidant defence system. Several components of this system are micronutrients (e.g. vitamins C and E) or are dependent upon dietary micronutrients (e.g. CuZn and Mn superoxide di...
متن کاملOxidant and antioxidant status of police officer
This study was designed to investigate the biochemical alteration in human caused by free radical accumulation due to air pollution. The policemen recruited were 60 country policemen consisting of 30 non smokers (group I) and 30 smokers (group II); 30 smoking policemen with administrative work in Jakarta (group III) and 30 smoking traffic policemen from Jakarta (group IV). Our results show that...
متن کاملInvestigation of the Plasma Nitrite Levels and Oxidant-Antioxidant Status in Obstructive Sleep Apnea Syndrome.
INTRODUCTION Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is one of the most prevalent sleep disorders. In the present study, we assessed the nitrite level, which is an indirect indicator of nitric oxide (NO), total oxidant status (TOS), total antioxidant status (TAS) and oxidative stress index (OSI), which may be associated with endotel dysfunction. We investigated the difference between the groups and the r...
متن کاملEvaluation of total oxidant and antioxidant status in dogs under different CO2 pneumoperitoneum conditions
BACKGROUND The induction of the pneumoperitoneum increases intraabdominal pressure (IAP), causing splanchnic ischemia, whereas its deflation normalizes IAP and splanchnic blood flow. We investigated the oxidant-antioxidant status of dogs who underwent low pressure (7 mm Hg), standard pressure (12 mm Hg), and high pressure (15 mm Hg) pneumoperitoneum. RESULTS Twenty-four beagle dogs (12 males ...
متن کاملTotal Oxidant and Antioxidant Status in Prepubertal Children with Obesity
AIMS Obesity is accompanied by the formation of oxygen free radicals, whose intensified activity without effective defense mechanisms can lead to oxidative stress and related complications. We evaluated the presence of oxidative stress in obese prepubertal children. METHODS The study included 83 healthy children aged 2-10 years (62 with obesity and 21 nonobese controls). Total oxidant capacit...
