Ferulic acid as major antioxidant phenolic compound of the Tetragonisca angustula honey collected in Vera Cruz - Itaparica Island, Bahia, Brazil

Braz. j. biol; 84 (), 2024
Abstract The antioxidant activity of Tetragonisca angustula honey (TAH) and its ethanolic extract (TAEE) were investigated. The total levels of phenolic (TPC) and flavonoids (TFC) were also evaluated. The results for TPC were 19.91 ± 0.38 and 29.37 ± 1.82 mg GAE g-1 and for TFC 0.20 ± 0.02 and 0.14 ±...

Foliar application of triacontanol ameliorates heat stress through regulation of the antioxidant defense system and improves yield of eggplant

Braz. j. biol; 84 (), 2024
Abstract Transplanting time and genotype contribute to improving crop yield and quality of eggplant (Solanum melongena L.). A field experiment was conducted to investigate the impact of foliar applied of triacontanol (TRIA) and eggplant genotypes 25919, Nirala, 28389 and Pak-10927,transplanted on 1 March...

Is there a difference in the oxidative stress levels between type 2 diabetic individuals with and without periodontitis? Systematic review

Braz. dent. sci; 27 (2), 2024
Objective: The authors’ aim in this systematic review was to verify the scientific evidence for difference of oxidative stress biomarkers in individuals with type 2 diabetes mellitus with and without periodontitis. Material and Methods: Observational studies, baseline data of prospective and interventi...

Dietary total antioxidant capacity, cardiovascular risk, and anthropometric obesity indices in hemodialysis patients: A case-control study

Rev. Nutr. (Online); 37 (), 2024
ABSTRACT Objective: Oxidative stress is triggered by malnutrition and antioxidant losses due to dialysis in hemodialysis patients and thus, oxidative stress increases the risk of mortality in patients with cardiovascular disease and obesity. The study aims to determine differences in cardiovascular risk...

Aceite de rosa mosqueta (Rosa rubiginosa) disminuye marcadores inflamatorios en células hepáticas humanas HepG2 tratadas con lipopolisacárido

La alteración de la microbiota intestinal es uno de los factores claves que afecta el inicio y la progresión de esteatosis hepática, al aumentar la permeabilidad intestinal e inducir un aumento circulante de la endotoxina lipopolisacárido (LPS). El LPS puede llegar al hígado a través de la vena por...

Alterations in antioxidant capacity, lipid peroxidation, and nitrite levels in type 2 diabetes

Background: this casecontrol study delves into oxidative and antioxidant markers, including Total Antioxidant Capacity (TAC), lipid peroxidation, and nitrites, alongside glucose levels in individuals with hyperglycemia due to type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) in comparison to their healthy counterparts. Fu...

Flavonoides como suplementos para mejorar el rendimiento físico deportivo
Flavonoids as Supplements to Improve Sports Physical Performance

Rev. cuba. med; 62 (4), 2023
Introducción: El ejercicio físico puede generar especies reactivas de oxígeno que dañan componentes celulares esenciales, como la fatiga. Los flavonoides, debido a su baja toxicidad y actividad antioxidante, se han estudiado como potenciales suplementos alimenticios para mejorar el rendimiento deport...

The impact of COVID-19 on vitamin E concentrations and oxidative stress markers in adult subjects: A systematic review

Rev. chil. nutr; 50 (6), 2023
Objective: To determine the impact of COVID-19 on vitamin E concentrations and oxidative stress in patients affected by the disease. Method: We conducted a systematic review using observational studies published between 2020 and 2023, which addressed the impact of COVID-19 on vitamin E concentrations and...

The potential role of apigenin in the enhancement of the antioxidant adaptation to exercise by bioactive dietary compounds

Rev. chil. nutr; 50 (6), 2023
Oxidative stress (OS) occurs when the antioxidant defense system is overwhelmed by the predominance of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and pro-oxidant factors. Several diseases such as hypertension, insulin resistance, type 2 diabetes mellitus and neurodegenerative diseases are characterized by chronic OS....
