Abstract The aim of this study was to assess the influence cisplatin and an extremely low frequency electromagnetic field (ELF‐EMF) on antioxidant enzyme activity lipid peroxidation ratio, as well level DNA damage reactive oxygen species (ROS) production in AT478 carcinoma cells. Cells were cultured for 24 72 h culture medium with cisplatin. Additionally, cells irradiated 50 Hz/1 mT ELF‐EMF 16 min using a solenoid source ELF‐EMF. amount ROS, superoxide dismutase (SOD) isoenzyme activity,...
Obesity is associated with an increased risk of certain types cancer, including colon cancer. Adipose tissue endocrine organ that produces biologically active substances, such as leptin and ghrelin. Recent research has suggested adipose-derived hormones may be mechanisms linked to tumorigenesis cancer progression. Furthermore, previous studies have demonstrated pineal gland-derived melatonin possesses important oncostatic antioxidant properties. The present study aimed determine the effects...
Low grade inflammation is associated with both chronic spontaneous urticaria (CSU) and atherosclerosis. Data regarding an association between urticarial atherosclerosis subsequent cardiovascular events are scarce. It has been demonstrated that matrix GLA protein (MGP), a biomarker of arterial calcification, increased in patients To evaluate circulating levels markers calcification acute phase response (APR) CSU. Concentrations MGP IL-6 were measured venous blood samples long-lasting...
This study examines the effects of vitamin E and an extremey low frequency electromagnetic field (ELF-EMF) their combination in different time intervals exposure (tocopherol) on AT478 murine squamous cell carcinoma line. provides insight into influence correlations between ELF-EMF supplementation antioxidant enzyme activity malignant cells vitro. Following treatment, enzymes is increased exposure-dependent manner compared with untreated group. Application alone or increases both superoxide...
The main aim of this study was to assess the effects social and familial isolation due COVID-19 on mental well-being patients staying in a residential medical care facility evaluation effectiveness therapeutic measures.The conducted among (58 patients). A short form Geriatric Depression Scale (GDS) used severity depressive disorders. number psychological interventions during individual months also compared.In February 2020, when there no isolation, 87.9% group did not suffer from depression...
Background . Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) is a powerful enhancer of vascular permeability and inflammatory response; however its significance in chronic urticaria poorly recognised. Aim To compare free circulating levels VEGF soluble receptors (sVEGFR1 VEGFR2) patients with different forms urticaria. Methods The concentrations plateletpoor plasma (PPP)/plasma were measured using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay urticaria: (1) spontaneous (CSU) positive autologous serum skin...
Background: The development of the COVID-19 pandemic has prompted implementation many procedures to safeguard against further increases in illness. Unfortunately, this drastically reduced residents’ contact with their families, which increased feelings loneliness and isolation. This is particularly difficult long-term care facilities, where risk developing depression higher than general population. Objectives: aim study was assess among residents institutions Poland during determine...
Activation of cell-mediated immunity by soluble interleukin-2 receptor alpha (sIL-2Ralpha) release is well documented. The aim this study was to measure serum concentrations sIL-2Ralpha in patients with autoimmune and non-autoimmune thyroid disorders different stages function, before after administration l-thyroxine (l-T4) its discontinuation as during methimazole administration.The included 80 females: 16 Graves' disease, 15 Hashimoto's thyroiditis subclinical hypothyroidism, 14 fibrosis...
Background: Our aim was to investigate the effect of intra-oesophageal acetaminophen instillation on selected antioxidative enzymes activity: superoxide dismutase isoenzymes (MnSOD, Cu/ZnSOD), glutathione peroxidase (GPX), glutathione-S-transferase (GST), reductase (GR) and lipid peroxidation in rat liver after 4, 8 12 weeks exposure.Material methods: Male Wistar FL strain rats weighing 150-160 g were treated with paracetamol by intraoesophageal at a dose 2.4 g/kg b.w every day up...
