abstract this experiment was carried out to determine the effects of proline and ascorbic acid on chilling injury, electrolyte leakage, lipid peroxidation, peroxide hydrogen and antioxidant enzymes activity of thompson grape (vitis vinifera l.) fruit. grape fruits were treated by 0 (control), 250 and 500 µm proline and 0 (control), 2 and 4% ascorbic acid and their combinations, then stored at 1...

this study was conducted to investigate the hepatoprotective and antioxidant effects of pentoxifylline (ptx) against aflatoxin b1 (afb1) exposure in perfused rat livers by evaluating damage marker enzymes, antioxidant defense systems (glutathione, gsh) and lipid peroxidation (malondialdehyde, mda). sixteen rats were divided randomly into four experimental groups: control, ptx, afb1 and afb1 + p...

four mature stallions were used to study the effect of enzymatic antioxidant catalase on freezability of turkmen stallion's sperm. collected semen from stallions were processed and pooled before being divided treatments (200×106  sperm/ml) and diluted with extenders supplemented with different levels of catalase [0 (control), 100 u/ml (cat100), 150u/ml (cat150) and 200u/ml (cat200)]. exten...

abstract effect of cr3+ concentrations (1, 2, 4, 6, and 8 mg l-1) on lipid peroxidation / mda production and antioxidative enzyme activity (apox, sod, and ppox) in root and leaf tissues of sweet basil seedlings (ocimum basilicum l.) during 6week treatment in hydroponic culture was studied. increasing cr3+ in the culture medium (≥4 mg l-1) caused significant enhancement of apox, sod, and ppox ac...

paraoxonase-1 (pon1) is a serum hdl-bound enzyme that hydrolyzes a number of aromatic carboxylic acid esters including lipid peroxides, preventing ldl oxidation. systemic lupus erythematosus (sle) patients are at greater risk of oxidative stress, which is associated with abnormal plasma lipid metabolism. in this study, association of pon-55 polymorphism with serum arylesterase (are) activities,...

Background and Aims: Current worldwide situation with the lipid management still demonstrates inadequate control of mentioned CV risk factor, which probably indicates a range difficulties at health system practices. The EAS initiated Lipid Clinics Network project, aiming to provide structure establish uniform EU-wide standards diagnosis, treatment patients disorders, based on ESC/EAS Guidelines...

Background: Exercise training affects the adipose tissue, which may lead to the secretion of adipokines. This study aimed to evaluate the effect of endurance exercise training on vaspin, lipid profiles, and some anthropometric indices among young people. Methods: The participants included 26 young men selected and categorized into the intervention and control groups randomly. The intervention g...

background: diabetes is one of the most common metabolic disorders and is related to oxidative-stress-induced diseases. given the role of dietary antioxidants in the control and prevention of diabetes, this study aimed to examine the effects of sesame butter versus sesame oil on the serum levels of glucose, lipid profile, and oxidative stress biomarkers in diabetic rats. methods: forty male alb...
