A huge volume of literature data suggests that a diet rich in fruits and vegetables, mostly due to the contribution natural polyphenols, could reduce incidence specific cancers. Resveratrol, epigallocatechin gallate curcumin are among most extensively studied polyphenols: The majority effects attributed these compounds linked their antioxidant anti‑inflammatory properties. multiple mechanisms involved include modulation molecular events signaling pathways associated with cell survival,...
Stressful life events, are differently handled by women and men. This study evaluates gender differences in perceived stress health status among a sample of subjects going through transition period from unemployment to work. cross-sectional enrolled 395 participants, 245 men (62%) 150 (38%) women, between 19 67 years, that were be hired for 6-month contract. Before being employed, all participants underwent mandatory protocol consisting general medical check. Stress assessment was performed...
The antioxidant activity of extracts from Capparis spinosa L. buds was evaluated using different in vitro tests: ascorbate/Fe(2+)-mediated lipid peroxidation microsomes rat liver; bleaching 1,1-diphenyl-2-picryl-hydrazyl radical; and autoxidation Fe(2+) ion the presence bathophenanthroline disulfonate. methanolic extract showed strong activities all these tests. amount total phenols determined extract. In addition, level rutin calculated as 0.39% (w/w) by HPLC analysis. Our findings indicate...
• Gasoline station attendants have higher urinary t,t,-MA and 8-OHdG levels. There is strong correlation between benzene exposure level. levels are significantly correlated also with job seniority. Low-level chronic to can determine oxidative damage on DNA. The present study aims investigate the relation low-dose occurrence of DNA in gasoline workers, as well possible role interfering or confounding factors. Urine were evaluated by a competitive immunoassay group 80 men, employed stations...
Environmental or occupational exposure to pesticides is considered one of the main risk factors for development various diseases. Behind pesticide-associated pathologies, there are both genetic and epigenetic alterations, where these latter mainly represented by alteration in expression levels microRNAs change methylation status DNA. At present, no studies have comprehensively evaluated alterations induced pesticides; therefore, aim present study was identify modifications gene miRNA DNA...
The sudden burst of the COVID-19 pandemic has changed work environment in favor remote working, affecting perception quality, satisfaction and performance. This crisis also influenced workers' mood, sleep quality general everyday life. Our main purpose this study was to give empirical contributions about home office workers experiencing working during by assessing mood spectrum variations, disturbances impact cross-sectional performed between November December 2020 through an online...
This review summarizes the current knowledge linking cancer and neuro-degenerative diseases to dysregulation of microRNA network following pesticide exposure. Most findings revealed differential miRNA expression targeting biomolecules pathways involved in various neoplastic localizations neurodegenerative diseases. A growing body evidence recent literature indicates that alteration specific miRNAs can represent an early biomarker disease exposure chemical agents, including pesticides....
