Background: Desaturation and elongation are critical processes in endogenous metabolic fatty acid pathways. Zinc (Zn) is a cofactor for desaturases elongases enzymes. There limited evidence regarding the relationships between biomarkers of Zn status, nutritional intake, plasma phospholipid profile clinical outcomes among patients undergoing hemodialysis (HD). Objective: To examine dietary serum levels Cu/Zn ratio to explore associations these micronutrients with PUFA estimated desaturase...
With the ever-growing concern for human health and wellbeing, prenatal period of development requires special attention since fetuses can be exposed to various metals through mother. Therefore, this study explored status selected toxic (
Abstract The pathogenesis of malignant brain tumors (MBTs) should be better understood due to the evident association between prolonged exposure metals and increased risk MBTs. present research aimed find trace that could contribute Essential elements (Mn, Co, Zn, Cu, Se) relevant toxic (Al, Ni, As, Sr, Cd, Ce, Pt, Pb, U) in serum, cell fraction (CF), cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) cancerous tissue (CT) samples MBT patients were analyzed. results compared with sex- age-matched control groups. For...
Mercury (Hg) is a non-essential trace metal with unique neurochemical properties and harmful effects on the central nervous system. In this study, we present comprehensive review meta-analysis of peer-reviewed research encompassing five crucial clinical matrices: hair, whole blood, plasma, red blood cells (RBCs), urine. We assess disparities in Hg levels between gender- age-matched neurotypical children (controls) diagnosed autism spectrum disorder (ASD) (cases). After applying rigorous...
The chemical element selenium (Se) is a nonmetal that in trace amounts indispensable for normal cellular functioning. During pregnancy, low Se status can increase the risk of oxidative stress. However, elevated concentrations body also cause This study aimed to compare effects BSA-stabilized nanoparticles (SeNPs, Se0) (BSA-bovine serum albumin) and inorganic sodium selenite (NaSe, Se+4) supplementation on histological structure placenta, stress parameters total placental concentration Wistar...
Any substance that induces production of free radicals can be a potential cause brain damage. The aim our study was to investigate the relationship between some metal ions and oxidative stress biomarkers in blood patients with tumor hydrocephalus.Our included 27 control subjects, 24 21 hydrocephalus. activities superoxide dismutase (CuZn SOD), catalase (CAT), glutathione peroxidase (GSH-Px), reductase (GR), S-transferase (GST) acetyl cholinesterase (AChE), as well concentrations reduced...
