background: ionizing radiation causes deleterious effects on living system mainly due to oxidative damages of macromolecules and protein is the major target due to its abundance. the aim of this study was to investigate the effects of ionizing radiation induced changes in the molecular properties of bovine serum albumin (bsa) its secondary and tertiary structures, degradation, cross linking and...

background stroke is the second cause of death and disability in the world, and oxidative stress which could be considered as a prognostic factor in patients for prevention, follow up and determination of stroke’s severity has a conceivable role in neural damage. objectives the aim of our study was to explain the association between oxidant/antioxidant imbalance as a prognostic factor in patien...

objective: environmental pollution is of major concern today and lead is considered to be one of the most important environmental pollutants. long-term contact with lead causes harmful effects to humans. this study seeks to determine the effects of curcuma longa (turmeric extract) consumption and exercise training on glutathione peroxidase and protein carbonyl in kidney and spleen tissues from ...

cirrhosis is the consequence of chronic liver disease. deleterious effects of oxidative stress on hepatocytes may be reflected in the erythrocyte membrane. naltrexone (ntx) has been shown to attenuate hepatocellular injury in fibrotic animal models. the aim of this study was to investigate the progressive effect of ccl 4 on the liver and whether the improvement of liver cirrhosis can be monitor...

several studies have shown that hepatocyte membrane composition changes in patients with cholestasis and cirrhosis. these alterations that are because of intracellular oxidative stress are supposed to be reflected in erythrocyte membrane. the aim of this study was to investigate the modification of erythrocyte membrane along with hexokinase and antioxidant enzymes during development of cirrhosi...

This study was conducted to evaluate the cytoprotection of various extracts and bioactive compounds found in Pistacia vera againts cytotoxicity, ROS formation, lipid peroxidation, protein carbonylation , mitochondrial and lysosomal membrane damages in cell toxicity models of diabetes related carbonyl (glyoxal) and oxidative stress (hydroperoxide). Methanol, water and ethyl acetate were used to ...

The objective of the present study was to evaluate protein carbonyl concentration as a predictor of AKI development in patients with septic shock and of renal replacement therapy (RRT) and mortality in patients with SAKI. This was a prospective observational study of 175 consecutive patients over the age of 18 years with septic shock upon Intensive Care Unit (ICU) admission. After exclusion of ...

The present study was conducted in patients with cervix and ovarian carcinoma to evaluate the status of oxidative stress biomarkers as protein carbonyl and lipid hydro peroxides. Biomarkers of oxidative stress were measured as protein carbonyl (PC) and total lipid hydro peroxides (LOOH). Newly diagnosed women with carcinoma (n=100; 30-65 years of age) and agematched clinically healthy women (n=...
