Acute exercise markedly increases blood oxidative stress in boys and girls
(2007)This study investigated the effect of an acute swimming protocol on selected blood redox status indices in trained children. Eleven boys and 11 girls (aged 9-11 y) swam 12 bouts of 50 m at a pace corresponding to 70%-75% ... -
Acute resistance exercise results in catecholaminergic rather than hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis stimulation during exercise in young men
(2010)Exercise is a paradigm of a stress situation. The adaptive response to stressors comprises the activation of the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis and components of the autonomic sympathetic system. An aseptic ... -
Administration of tomato juice ameliorates lactate dehydrogenase and creatinine kinase responses to anaerobic training
(2013)Creatinine phosphokinase (CPK) and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) are important biological markers of various myocardial disorders and exercise-induced muscle damage. Lycopene, on the other side, is a natural anti-oxidant ... -
Adrenomedullin refines mortality prediction by the BODE index in COPD: the "BODE-A" index
(2014)The BODE (body mass index, airflow obstruction, dyspnoea, exercise capacity) index is well-validated for mortality prediction in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Concentrations of plasma pro-adrenomedullin, a ... -
alpha-Lipoic acid supplementation up-regulates antioxidant capacity in adults with G6PD deficiency
(2013)The purpose of this study was to examine the effect of alpha-lipoic acid (LA) supplementation on blood redox status in individuals with glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) deficiency. Eight adults with G6PD deficiency ... -
Alzheimer's disease treated patients showed different patterns for oxidative stress and inflammation markers
(2013)Alzheimer's disease (AD) is the most common type of dementia accounting for 60-80% of the reported cases. The aim of this study was to evaluate levels of certain parameters of oxidative stress and markers of endothelial ... -
Antioxidant capacity in obstructive sleep apnea patients
(2003)Objectives: Obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSA) results in oxygen desaturation and arousal from sleep. Free oxygen radicals are highly reactive molecules, which can be produced by the OSA phenomenon known as ... -
Association of plaque echostructure and cardiovascular risk factors with symptomatic carotid artery disease
(2010)Aim. Severity of stenosis remains the main factor for assessing risk of stroke in patients with internal carotid artery (ICA) disease. This study was conducted to investigate the association of plaque echostructure and ... -
Blood reflects tissue oxidative stress depending on biomarker and tissue studied
(2009)This study investigated whether selected oxidative stress markers measured in blood adequately reflect redox status in skeletal muscle, heart, and liver. Several markers were determined after implementing two treatments ... -
Comparison of the blood redox status between long-distance and short-distance runners
(2006)Exercise increases the production of reactive oxygen species, which may damage a number of cell constituents. Organisms have developed a sophisticated antioxidant system for protection against reactive oxygen species. Our ... -
Comparison of the phospholipid and triacylglycerol fatty acid profile of rat serum, skeletal muscle and heart
(2006)Although several studies have analyzed the fatty acid profile of phospholipids (PL) and, to a lesser degree, triacylglycerols (TG) in one or more tissues concurrently, a systematic comparison of the fatty acid composition ... -
Consequences of reduced vitamin A administration on mammary health of dairy ewes
(2013)The study was carried out in Mytilene breed dairy ewes, which were allocated into two groups, 2 months before their first mating. All animals were given a diet based on dried alfalfa hay and concentrate compound feed with ... -
Decreased blood oxidative stress after repeated muscle-damaging exercise
(2007)Purpose: To examine the effect of repeated muscle-damaging exercise on the time-course changes in several indices of muscle damage, and to compare them with changes in blood oxidative stress indices. Methods: Twelve females ... -
Determination of the proper time for mating after oestrous synchronisation during anoestrous or oestrous by measuring electrical resistance of cervical mucus in ewes
(2015)The purpose of the present study was to investigate whether the electrical resistance values of the cervical mucus and/or blood estradiol-17 beta and progesterone concentrations at mating, after oestrous synchronisation ... -
Effect of 1-year oral alpha-tocopherol administration on anticardiolipin antibodies in hemodialysis patients
(2005)Background. Anticardiolipin antibodies (ACA) have been related to an increased incidence of thrombotic episodes and atherosclerosis progression. ACA levels are elevated in hemodialysis (HD) patients. Atheroembolic episodes ... -
Effect of a special carbohydrate-protein cake on oxidative stress markers after exhaustive cycling in humans
(2012)Exercise has been associated with oxidative stress that is correlated with muscle fatigue and reduced exercise performance. The aim of this study was to examine the effects of a special cake (consisting of carbohydrate to ... -
Effect of exercise on oxidative stress in individuals with glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase deficiency
(2006)The effect of exercise on oxidative stress in glucosee-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD)-deficient individuals was investigated. Materials and Methods: Nine G6PD-deficient males and nine males with normal G6PD activity were ... -
Effect of prolonged aflatoxin B-1 administration on blood serum oestradiol-17 beta and progesterone concentrations of goats during the anoestrus period
(2015)The effect of prolonged aflatoxin B-1 (AFB(1)) administration on blood serum oestradiol-17 beta and progesterone concentrations in goats during the anoestrus period was investigated. Thirty Greek indigenous goats were used; ... -
Effects of dietary protein supply, weaning age and experimental enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli infection on newly weaned pigs: health
(2008)Weaning is often associated with post-weaning colibacillosis (PWC), caused by enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli (ETEC). The objective was to investigate the effects of manipulating dietary protein supply and increasing ... -
