Antioxidant and chemopreventive properties of polyphenolic compounds derived from Greek legume plant extracts

Spanou, C.; Bourou, G.; Dervishi, A.; Aligiannis, N.; Angelis, A.; Komiotis, D.; Skaltsounis, A. L.; Kouretas, D. (2008)

Recently, phytochemical compounds present in legumes have gained a lot of interest because they are considered to be possible chemopreventive agents. In the present study, 14 polyphenolic compounds were extracted and ...

Yfanti, C.; Fischer, C. P.; Nielsen, S.; Akerstrom, T.; Nielsen, A. R.; Veskoukis, A. S.; Kouretas, D.; Lykkesfeldt, J.; Pilegaard, H.; Pedersen, B. K. (2012)

Yfanti C, Fischer CP, Nielsen S, Akerstrom T, Nielsen AR, Veskoukis AS, Kouretas D, Lykkesfeldt J, Pilegaard H, Pedersen BK. Role of vitamin C and E supplementation on IL-6 in response to training. J Appl Physiol 112: ...

Activity of grape extracts from Greek varieties of Vitis vinifera against mutagenicity induced by bleomycin and hydrogen peroxide in Salmonella typhimurium strain TA102

Stagos, D.; Kazantzoglou, G.; Theofanidou, D.; Kakalopoulou, G.; Magiatis, P.; Mitaku, S.; Kouretas, D. (2006)

Several in vivo and in vitro studies have shown that grape extracts could prevent certain steps in carcinogenesis and a few mechanisms have been proposed for this activity. In this study, the potential antimutagenic activity ...

Application of a new oxidation-reduction potential assessment method in strenuous exercise-induced oxidative stress

Stagos, D.; Goutzourelas, N.; Bar-Or, D.; Ntontou, A. M.; Bella, E.; Becker, A. T.; Statiri, A.; Kafantaris, I.; Kouretas, D. (2015)

Objectives: The aim of the study was to test a novel method for assessing oxidative stress, the RedoxSYS (TM) diagnostic system, a holistic, fast, minimally invasive, and requiring small sample volume method, that measures ...

The Antioxidant Effects of a Polyphenol-Rich Grape Pomace Extract In Vitro Do Not Correspond In Vivo Using Exercise as an Oxidant Stimulus

Veskoukis, A. S.; Kyparos, A.; Nikolaidis, M. G.; Stagos, D.; Aligiannis, N.; Halabalaki, M.; Chronis, K.; Goutzourelas, N.; Skaltsounis, L.; Kouretas, D. (2012)

Fruits, such as grapes, are essential food of the Mediterranean diet. Grape extracts have potent antioxidant and chemopreventive properties in vitro. Numerous studies have examined the effects of plant extract administration ...

Exercise-induced oxidative stress in G6PD-deficient individuals

Nikolaidis, M. G.; Jamurtas, A. Z.; Paschalis, V.; Kostaropoulos, I. A.; Kladi-Skandali, A.; Balamitsi, V.; Koutedakis, Y.; Kouretas, D. (2006)

Purpose: This study was designed to investigate whether individuals with glucose-6phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) deficiency can exercise without greater perturbations in their redox status compared with non-G6PD-deficient ...

Comparison of the blood redox status between long-distance and short-distance runners

Kostaropoulos, I. A.; Nikolaidis, M. G.; Jamurtas, A. Z.; Ikonomou, G. V.; Makrygiannis, V.; Papadopoulos, G.; Kouretas, D. (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 ...

The effect of muscle-damaging exercise on blood and skeletal muscle oxidative stress: Magnitude and time-course considerations

Nikolaidis, M. G.; Jamurtas, A. Z.; Paschalis, V.; Fatouros, I. G.; Koutedakis, Y.; Kouretas, D. (2008)
