Influence of Potent Antioxidant Leguminosae Family Plant Extracts on Growth and Antioxidant Defense System of Hep2 Cancer Cell Line
(2010)
Legumes are considered to be a very good source of polyphenolic compounds that may act as chemopreventive agents, especially by their antioxidant properties. However, many of the chemopreventive properties may depend on ...
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 ...
Pomegranate juice consumption increases GSH levels and reduces lipid and protein oxidation in human blood
(2014)
The aim of the present study was the assessment of the antioxidant effects of pomegranate juice (PJ) consumption in humans. Thus, 14 healthy volunteers consumed PJ daily for a period of 15 days and the changes of oxidative ...
Assessment of polyphenolic content, antioxidant activity, protection against ROS-induced DNA damage and anticancer activity of Vitis vinifera stem extracts
(2013)
Grape extracts and wine have been studied widely due to their beneficial effects on human health. However, there are only few studies from grape stems extracts. Therefore, the main objective of the present study was the ...
Biochemical and biological assessment of the inhibitory potency of extracts from vinification byproducts of Vitis vinifera extracts against glycogen phosphorylase
(2014)
The inhibitory potency of thirteen polyphenolic extracts obtained from vinification byproducts of Greek varieties of Vitis vinifera against glycogen phosphorylase (GP) has been studied by kinetic experiments. GP is an ...
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 ...
Feed supplemented with byproducts from olive oil mill wastewater processing increases antioxidant capacity in broiler chickens
(2015)
In the present study, a ceramic membrane microfiltration method was used for the separation of two liquid products, the downstream permeate and the upstream retentate, from olive mill wastewater (OMWW). These liquid products ...
Intramuscular responses with muscle damaging exercise and the interplay between multiple intracellular networks: A human perspective
(2013)
Damaging exercise invokes a series of widespread changes that impact many aspects of skeletal muscle physiology. When examining candidate intramuscular mechanisms, those associated with oxidative stress, inflammation, ...
Antioxidant effects of whey protein on muscle C2C12 cells
(2014)
In the present study, the in vitro scavenging activity of sheep whey protein against free radicals, as well as its reducing power were determined and compared with that of beef protein, soy protein and cow whey protein. ...
