Investigation of the protective effect of nesfatin-1 on testicular ischaemia-reperfusion damage: An experimental study
(Wiley, 2020)
This study aimed to determine oxidative stress in the tissue after testicular torsion biochemically and histopathologically and to examine the effects of Nesfatin-1 treatment on this injury. Thirty-two rats were randomly ...
Could the Fucus Spiralis Algal Extract Prevent the Oxidative Stress in Tetrahymena Pyriformis Model?
(Biointerface Research Applied Chemistry, 2021)
Algae are well-known to be exceptionally rich sources for biologically active metabolites and have recently gained recognition for their therapeutic applications. This study is designed to assess the phenolic composition ...
Selenium potentiates the anticancer effect of cisplatin against oxidative stress and calcium ion signaling-induced intracellular toxicity in MCF-7 breast cancer cells: involvement of the TRPV1 channel
(Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2017)
Background: In breast cancers, calcium signaling is a main cause of proliferation and apoptosis of breast cancer cells. Although previous studies have implicated the transient receptor potential vanilloid 1 (TRPV1) cation ...
Comparison of the Anti-inflammatory Effects of Proanthocyanidin, Quercetin, and Damnacanthal on Benzo(a)pyrene Exposed A549 Alveolar Cell Line
(Springer/Plenum Publishers, 2016)
Phytochemical compounds are emerging as a new group of anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and anti-cancer agents that help minimize toxicity in patients with pulmonary diseases. The goal of this study was to investigate the ...
Ascorbic acid and beta-carotene reduce stress-induced oxidative organ damage in rats
(Taylor & Francis Inc, 2016)
Antioxidants are potential therapeutic agents for reducing stress-induced organ damage. We investigated the effects of ascorbic acid and -carotene on oxidative stress-induced cerebral, cerebellar, cardiac and hepatic damage ...
Dexpanthenol reduces diabetic nephropathy and renal oxidative stress in rats
(Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2019)
Hyperglycemia increases reactive oxygen species (ROS) and the resulting oxidative stress contributes to the development of diabetic complications. Dexpanthenol (Dxp) is the biological active form of pantothenic acid. We ...
The association of low levels of nesfatin-1 and glucagon-like peptide-1 with oxidative stress in Parkinson's disease
(Springer-Verlag Italia Srl, 2019)
AimIn Parkinson's disease (PD), oxidative stress plays a substantial role in degeneration of dopaminergic neurons at the substantia nigra. Recent reports describe nesfatin-1 and glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) as molecules ...
Assessment of malondialdehyde levels, superoxide dismutase, and catalase activity in children with autism spectrum disorders
(Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2018)
OBJECTIVE: Blood biomarkers for diseases have recently become a topic of great interest. Many studies of Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) have been made to date looking for biomarkers in peripheral tissues, but no specific ...
Methotrexate-Induced Nephrotoxicity in Rats: Protective Effect of Mistletoe (Viscum album L.) Extract
(Karger, 2017)
Background: The protective effect of mistletoe extract (Helixor((R)), HLX) against methotrexate (MTX)-induced acute oxidative stress and nephrotoxicity in rats was evaluated by histological and biochemical methods as well ...
Effect of Boron Toxicity on Oxidative Stress and Genotoxicity in Wheat (Triticum aestivum L.)
(Springer, 2018)
Boron (B) toxicity, which occurs in semi-arid and arid environments, can adversely affect the growth and yield of many plants. The aim of this study was to determine the effects of different concentrations of boric acid ...
