Biological importance of reactive oxygen species in relation to difficulties of treating pathologies involving oxidative stress by exogenous antioxidants
(2013)
Findings about involvement of reactive oxygen species (ROS) not only in defense processes, but also in a number of pathologies, stimulated discussion about their role in etiopathogenesis of various diseases. Yet questions ...
A brief exposure to moderate passive smoke increases metabolism and thyroid hormone secretion
(2007)
Context: Active smoking influences normal metabolic status and thyroid function. Objective: The objective was to assess experimentally the effects of 1 h of moderate passive smoking in a controlled simulated bar/ restaurant ...
Dexamethasone has a biphasic effect on the c-Jun mRNA expression in the fetal and adult rat lung, in vivo
(1999)
Glucocorticoids are a very potent therapy for the treatment of asthma as well for lung maturation in the prematurely newborn animals and human. It has been demonstrated that glucocorticoid receptors antagonize the actions ...
Dexamethasone has a biphasic effect on the c-Jun m-RNA expression in the fetal and adult rat lung, in vivo
(1999)
Glucocorticoids are a very potent therapy for the treatment of asthma as well for lung maturation in the prematurely newborn animals and human. It has been demonstrated that glucocorticoid receptors antagonize the actions ...
The effect of muscle-damaging exercise on blood and skeletal muscle oxidative stress: Magnitude and time-course considerations
(2008)
The aim of this article is to present the effects of acute muscle-damaging exercise on oxidative stress/damage of animal and human tissues using a quantitative approach and focusing on the time-course of exercise effects. ...
Histopathological lesions, oxidative stress and genotoxic effects in liver and kidneys following long term exposure of rabbits to diazinon and propoxur
(2013)
Purpose: The aim of the present study was to investigate the effects of diazinon and propoxur on liver and kidneys, following long term exposure of rabbits. Methods: Ten New Zealand white female rabbits were used. The ...
Study of Insulin Resistance, TNF-alpha, Total Antioxidant Capacity and Lipid Profile in Patients with Chronic Heart Failure under Exercise
(2011)
Gluco-metabolic syndrome, oxidative stress and inflammation are common in chronic heart failure (CHF). Exercise training programmes are known to improve oxidative status, insulin sensitivity and endothelial function. In ...
