Serum malondialdehyde, coenzyme Q10 and 8-hydroxydeoxyguanosine levels in calves with foot-and-mouth disease

Electrocardiographic abnormalities and their association with some serum biomarkers in lambs with foot and mouth disease

Little attention has been paid to the aspects of cardiac injury-related foot and mouth disease (FMD) in young animals. So, this research was conducted to evaluate the serum biomarkers and electrocardiographic (ECG) evidence of myocardial injury in the infected lambs with FMD. During an outbreak, 33 lambs with FMD and 11 healthy lambs were randomly enrolled. After blood sampling, ECGs were taken...

Serum troponin I as an indicator of myocarditis in lambs affected with foot and mouth disease

Foot and mouth disease (FMD) is a highly contagious viral disease of cloven-hooved livestock and wildlife results to relatively high mortality in young animals. Despite the numerous reports of FMD-related death in neonates, there is little data available on various aspects of FMD in lambs. This report describes myocarditis associated with FMD in five, one week to three months old lambs. The lam...

Plasma 8-hydroxy-2'-deoxyguanosine Levels in Huntington Disease and Healthy Controls Treated with Coenzyme Q10.

We analyzed plasma 8OHdG concentrations in 20 individuals enrolled in the Pre-2CARE study before and after treatment with CoQ. Treatment resulted in a mean reduction in 8OHdG of 2.9 ± 2.9 pg/ml for the cohort (p = 0.0003) and 3.0 ± 2.6 pg/ml, for the HD group (p = 0.002). Baseline 8OHdG levels were not different between individuals with HD and controls (19.3 ± 3.2 pg/ml vs. 19.5 ± 4.7 pg/ml, p ...
