background heat shock protein 72 (hsp72) is responsible for maintaining critical cellular function during heat stress. hsp72 confers thermotolerance and may play a role in heat acclimation. animal research suggests a difference between sexes in hsp72 expression in response to exercise, however, human data is lacking. conclusion our findings suggest that men and women differ in their cellular st...

Acute kidney injury (AKI) is the common clinical syndrome which is associated with increased morbidity and mortality. The severity extends from less to more advanced spectrums which link to biological, physical and chemical agents. Oxidative stress (OS)-related AKI has demonstrated the increasing of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and reactive nitrogen species (RNS) and the decreasing of endogeno...

Biological tissues are commonly subjected to free radical attack and subsequent oxidative damage due to imperfections in oxygen metabolism (Halliwell et al., 1995). Skeletal muscle is particularly susceptible to oxidative reactions since it contains high concentrations of lipid membrane systems (e.g. mitochondria and sarcoplasmic reticulum), prooxidants (e.g. transition metals and heme-containi...

Muscular exercise promotes the production of radicals and other reactive oxygen species in the working muscle. Growing evidence indicates that reactive oxygen species are responsible for exercise-induced protein oxidation and contribute to muscle fatigue. To protect against exercise-induced oxidative injury, muscle cells contain complex endogenous cellular defence mechanisms (enzymatic and non-...

Natural antioxidants compounds are present in leaf, rhizome, stem, fruits, vegetables, tea etc. They are recognized as important compounds in conferring stability against oxidation in vitro. Natural antioxidant compounds can be classified into Exogenous antioxidants and Endogenous antioxidants, Enzymatic and NonEnzymatic antioxidants. Naturally occurring antioxidants compounds are carotenoids, ...
