Asthma and
oxidant stress: nutritional, environmental, and genetic risk factors.
* Reduces
oxidant stress and inflammation and slows aging,
Normally, they added, the body would marshal an antioxidant defense to neutralize this
oxidant stress, but CF is characterized by dietary antioxidant deficiencies.
The research team conducted a year-long study first focused on ageing mice who were given a western diet to stimulate
oxidant stress to antagonize the NAKL.
Blood samples were drawn from all cases at presentation to the emergency service and oxidative stress levels (total
oxidant stress [TOS] and total antioxidant stress [TAS]) were measured in the biochemistry laboratory of the Yildirim Beyazit University Faculty of Medicine.
Studies of
oxidant stress and antioxidant status in patients with FMS have also revealed different results; some have demonstrated a decreased total antioxidant status compared with the control groups, [8,9,31,32] whereas other studies did not show a significant difference between the two groups.

oxidant stress," Cardiovascular Research, vol.
The hypothesis that APAP acts as a prooxidant in the airways and enhances the response to ETS was tested in a mouse model by determining whether APAP and/or APAP + ETS a) cause a loss of GSH, and b) activate the
oxidant stress response pathway, as indicated by the activation of two NRF2-dependent genes: Gclc and Nqol.
The first recognized use for isoprostanes was using them as mediators of
oxidant stress [1].
Dietary AGEs are known to contribute to increased
oxidant stress and inflammation, which are linked to diabetes and cardiovascular disease.
These compounds help human body to shield
oxidant stress, diseases, and cancers.
[57] suggest that measuring urinary metabolite of IsoPs is likely to be a more accurate index of systemic
oxidant stress status.
