• Acute exercise markedly increases blood oxidative stress in boys and girls 

      Nikolaidis, M. G.; Kyparos, A.; Hadziioannou, M.; Panou, N.; Samaras, L.; Jamurtas, A. Z.; Kouretas, D. (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% ...
    • 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 ...

    • 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 ...
    • Sampling time is crucial for measurement of aerobic exercise-induced oxidative stress 

      Michailidis, Y.; Jamurtas, A. Z.; Nikolaidis, M. G.; Fatouros, I. G.; Koutedakis, Y.; Papassotiriou, I.; Kouretas, D. (2007)
      Purpose: To thoroughly investigate the time-course changes of several commonly used markers of oxidative stress by performing serial measurements during a 24-h period after an acute bout of strenuous cardiovascular exercise. ...
