OBJECTIVES We sought to study the markers of lipid peroxidation and defenses against oxidative stress in patients with varying degrees of heart failure. BACKGROUND Despite advances in other areas of cardiovascular disease, the morbidity and mortality from congestive heart failure (CHF) are increasing. Data mainly from animal models suggest that free radical injury may promote myocardial decom...

Changes in oxidative capacities and phospholipid remodeling accompany temperature acclimation in ectothermic animals. Both responses may alter redox status and membrane susceptibility to lipid peroxidation (LPO). We tested the hypothesis that phospholipid remodeling is sufficient to offset temperature-driven rates of LPO and, thus, membrane susceptibility to LPO is conserved. We also predicted ...

There is a general agreement (belief) that lipids are the pivotal element in inflammatory disease. One of the most studied topics is the connection between lipid oxidation and cardiovascular disease. In a very recent review, the introductory paragraphs states, after resuming the elements of the inflammatory response starting with stimulated endothelium displaying adhesive molecules for circulat...

In the present study, the aqueous extract of Vigna unguiculata (L) Walp seed was evaluated for its hepatoprotective effect on etahnol induced acute liver damage on Wistar albino rats. The degree of protection was measured by using biochemical parameters such as serum glutamate oxalate transaminase (SGOT), serum glutamate pyruvate transaminase (SGPT), alkaline phosphatase (ALP), total bilirubin ...

OBJECTIVE: The goal of this study was to ferment yoghurt from milk using lactic acid bacteria found in pinecones and examine the cell viability lipid peroxidation levels fermented on Vascular Endothelial Cell Line ECV304.
 METHODS: ECV304 cultured vitro. To determine viability, various concentration yogurt extract with pinecone were given cells MTT Assay. At same doses as Assay, Lipid Pero...

Estimation of age dependent changes of the lipid peroxidation (LPO) intensity, content of stable metabolites of nitrogen oxides (NO) and antioxidant enzyme activities in rat blood serum in conditions of experimental postinfarction cardiosclerosis (PICS) is carried out. Initiation of the postinfarction remodeling of animals has been carried out with coronary occlusion, definition of LPO and NO m...

BACKGROUND We examined lipid peroxidation (LPO) in blood mononuclear cells (BMCs) and plasma, as a marker of oxidative damage, and its association to clinical symptoms in Fibromyalgia (FM) patients. METHODS We conducted a case-control and correlational study comparing 65 patients and 45 healthy controls. Clinical parameters were evaluated using the Fibromyalgia Impact Questionnaire (FIQ), vis...

The effects of Ashwagandha root powder (0.7 and 1.4 g/kg body weight/day), administered for 15 and 30 days, was investigated on lipid peroxidation (LPO), superoxide dismutase (SOD) and catalase (CAT) activities in mice. While 15 days treatment with Ashwagandha root powder did not produce any significant change, 30 days treatment produced a significant decrease in LPO, and an increase in both SO...

the present experiment was designed to access the effects of methylmercury chloride ( mehgcl) on antioxidant status, protein concentration, lipid peroxidation and hydroperoxidation in brain parts, spinal cord, lung, heart and pancreas of rats. twenty male wistar rats (3 months old) were divided in saline controls (c) and mehgcl-treated group (mmc). treated rats were intoxicated with mmc at a do...
