relationship between proteolytic enzyme activity and oxidative stress in subjects with diabetes

Serum paraoxonase enzyme activity and oxidative stress in obese subjects.

INTRODUCTION Obesity is an important risk factor for atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease. Paraoxonase-1 (PON1) may play a significant role in the prevention of obesity-related accelerated atherosclerosis by hydrolyzing lipid peroxides in oxidized low-density lipoproteins. OBJECTIVES The aim of this study was to evaluate PON1 and arylesterase enzyme activities and lipid hydroperoxide (LOOH)...

oxidative stress and proteolytic activity in erythrocytes of diabetic patients

Relationship between physical activity and oxidative stress biomarkers in women.

PURPOSE To examine the relationship between physical activity and levels of plasma lipid peroxides, superoxide dismutase in erythrocytes (SOD), and glutathione peroxidase (GSH-Px) in whole blood activities.

Relationship between acrosin activity of human spermatozoa and oxidative stress.

AIM To study the association between seminal oxidative stress and human sperm acrosin activity. METHODS It is a prospective study consisting of 30 infertile men and 12 fertile normozoospermic volunteers. A full history, clinical examination and scrotal ultrasound were done to exclude other related factors such as smoking and varicocele. Presence of white blood cells (WBCs) in semen samples wa...

The Relationship between Vitamin D Deficiency and Increased Oxidative Stress in Patients with Colon Cancer

Background and Objective: Colorectal cancer (CRC) is one of the most prevalent cancers worldwide. Oxidative stress is one of the involved factors in CRC onset and progression. Recent examinations have revealed antioxidant characteristics of vitamin D. Given the vital role of this vitamin in balancing free radicals and antioxidant capacity, in this study we intended to review the association bet...
