The Effects of White Tea (Camellia Sinensis) and Infliximab Against Cisplatin- Induced Testicular Damage via Oxidative Stress and Apoptosis

Int. j. morphol; 41 (5), 2023
SUMMARY: Cisplatin (Cis) is an important chemotherapeutic agent used in cancer treatment. Males exposed to Cis were reported to exhibit testicular toxicity. Cis-induced testicular toxicity is mediated by oxidative stress, inflammation, testosterone inhibition and apoptosis. Accordingly, this study was co...

Niveles glutatión reducido y estado redox celular en pacientes pediátricos con inmunodeficiencias
Reduced glutathione levels and cellular redox status in pediatric patients with immunodeficiencies

Introducción: Las alteraciones en el estado redox celular se han descrito como factores causales en diversas enfermedades. La depleción del glutatión reducido se ha asociado fundamentalmente a enfermedades neurodegenerativas, pulmonares, hepáticas, cardiovasculares e inmunológicas. Objetivo: Dete...

The beneficial effects of virgin olive oil against oxidative stress induced by hypercholesterolemia in rats

Acta sci., Health sci; 44 (), 2022
Cardiovascular disease(CVD) remains the major cause of mortality in the world, typically claiming a third of all deaths. The primary cause of CVD is atherosclerosis. Therefore, timely prevention and therapy of atherosclerosis are able to reduce the risk of the development of its clinical manif...

The effects of silymarin plus glutathione on the prevention of liver ischemia-reperfusion injury

Abstract Liver ischemia-reperfusion (IR) injury is a major clinical trouble encountered in clinical practice. This study aimed to examine the therapeutic effects of silymarin (SM) plus glutathione (GSH) on hepatic IR injury using a rat model of liver IR. Fifty male rats were randomly divided into five gr...

Investigation of the protective and therapeutic effects of β-aminoisobutyric acid (BAIBA) and Thymoquinone in the diabetic nephropathy

In this study, against streptozotocin (STZ) induced diapetic nephropathy (DN); it is aimed to investigate the use of thymoquinone (TQ) and β-aminoisobutyric acid (BAIBA) and to compare the effects of these agents. With random selection of 35 male rats, five groups (seven rats in each group) were consti...

Glutathione and IGF-1 in bovine seminal cryopreservation: oxidative stress response and pregnancy rate

The objective of this study was to evaluate the rate of conception, metabolic, and structural conditions of cryopreserved bovine sperm cells, plus extender with IGF-1 and glutathione (GSH). 12 ejaculations of Nelore bulls were used, submitted to treatments: control, gSH (2mM/mL), IGF-1 (100ng/mL) and gSH...

Cardioprotective effect of eicosapentaenoic acid during ischemia and reperfusion

Objective: In this work, rats isolated hearts were infused EPA before the ischemia period and during reperfusion for available get well in parameter relatives to redox reactions. Methods: The effect of EPA was tested on isolated hearts induced to ischemia and reperfusion, treatment occurred at different ...

The effect of reduced glutathione on the toxicity of silver diamine fluoride in rat pulpal cells

J. appl. oral sci; 29 (), 2021
Abstract Introduction Due to its ability to arrest untreated dental caries, silver diamine fluoride (SDF) has been advocated for indirect pulp capping procedures. However, the high concentrations of silver and fluoride in SDF raise concerns about its biocompatibility to pulpal tissues. Objectives Thi...

Antioxidant effect on viability of boar semen cooled to 15°C

This study aimed to evaluate the addition of Vitamin C, reduced Glutathione and trolox on sperm characteristics of pork refrigerated semen. Six pigs were collected through the technique of gloved hand (10 ejaculates/animals). The semen was diluted in MR-A®. After the previous evaluations, the treatments...

Does supplementation of vitamin C, reduced glutathione or their association in semen extender reduce oxidative stress in bovine frozen semen?

The aim of this study was to evaluate the addition of vitamin C, reduced glutathione and the association thereof to the bovine semen cryopreservation extender. The ejaculate from nine bulls were divided into four fractions, each corresponding to a treatment, namely: control group-semen diluted with Tris-...
