Hydroxyl radical (•OH) scavenging and the regeneration of Fe2+ may inhibit or enhance peroxidative damage induced by a Fenton system, respectively. Plant polyphenols reveal afore-mentioned activities, their cumulative net effect determine anti- pro-oxidant actions. We investigated influence 17 phenolics on ultra-weak photon emission (UPE) from modified system (92.6 µmol/L Fe2+, 185.2 EGTA (ethylene glycol-bis(β-aminoethyl-ether)-N,N,N',N,-tetraacetic acid) 2.6 mmol/L H2O2 pH = 7.4).

Abstract Background HIV viremia has been considered a cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk factor, but many studies have had insufficient data on potential confounders. We explored the association between and CVD after adjusting for established factors analyzed whether consideration of would improve prediction. Methods Adults from RESPOND were followed first date with available until rigorously defined CVD, loss to follow-up, death, or administrative censoring. associations 6 measures...
Abstract: Undeniably, low sensitivities in the ferric‐reducing ability power (FRAP) is evident detection of augmentation plasma antioxidant activity, relative to rise circulating polyphenols after ingestion fruits and vegetables. We investigated vitro FRAP 17 plant their metabolites at submicromolar concentrations commensurate human plasma. then explored effects purified apple quercetin glycosides on FRAP. found that along with various observed this distinct concentrations. The presence a...
Regular strawberry consumption augmented plasma antioxidant activity and decreased lipid peroxidation suggests preventive potential of these fruits against oxidative stress-dependent disorders. Blood phagocytes are important source oxidants that may contribute to systemic stress. We examined the effect on luminol enhanced whole blood chemiluminescence (LBCL) reflecting generation by circulating in healthy subjects.Thirty-one subjects (being their usual diet) consumed 500 g pulp daily...
Raman spectra of the blood samples obtained directly from hospitalized malaria patients with Plasmodium falciparum (P. falciparum) in ring-stage were analyzed. Changes observed band intensities infected compared to healthy volunteers are result parasite activity inside red cells. The discussed by analyzing differences particular spectral regions evaluating changes intensity ratios as well using PCA analysis. alterations erythrocyte membranes caused penetration visible a reduced I1130/I1075...
The usefulness of Candida utilis, Saccharomyces cerevisiae, and Kluyveromyces lactis to the fermentation high alkaloid lupin seeds was examined. Seeds were mixed with water sterilized at 121 °C for 20 min. After cooling, mixture inoculated yeast fermented 48 or 72 hr 30 °C. enzymes deactivation samples dried. Fermentation increased content crude protein (p < .05) affected amino acid profile .05). There no strain effect on content, but true higher > after K. S. cerevisieae fermentation....
The aim of this study was to compare the effect probiotic bacteria, prebiotics, phytobiotics and their combinations on performance microbial activity in digestive tract growing pigs. experiment conducted over 28 d 48 male pigs about 12 kg body weight (BW), which were allocated following treatments.: (1) Control Group (Con) without additive, (2) I, addition a prebiotic (inulin), (3) Ph, phytobiotic (herbal water extracts), (4) P, composed four strains lactic acid (5) PhP, bacteria (6) PhPI,...
Abstract Plant phenols may accumulate in end‐stage kidney disease. The effect of hemodialysis on their plasma concentration remains poorly determined. Contingent concentration, health‐promoting or noxious effects occur; therefore, we assessed hemodialyzed patients. In total, 21 maintenance patients with diuresis < 500 mL per day (with oliguria), nine ≥ (without oliguria) and 31 healthy volunteers were included. Nine phenolic acids identified high‐performance liquid chromatography total...
Objective: Strawberries can improve oxidants–antioxidants balance and reduce some cardiovascular risk factors in obese subjects. Paraoxonase-1 (PON-1) is a high-density lipoprotein–associated enzyme with antioxidant properties that protect from coronary artery disease humans. We examined the effect of strawberry consumption on plasma PON-1 activity lipid profile healthy nonobese subjects.Methods: Thirty-one subjects (body mass index [BMI] 24.4 ± 4.0 kg/m2) their usual diet consumed 500 g...
Fermented milk beverages have been known for years and are characterized by excellent health-promoting properties. Therefore, consumer attention has drawn to this product type in recent years. In the presented research, technology of production laboratory industrial scale controlled fermentation whey containing sweet sour organic cow's or goat's with addition fruit juices (apple, blackcurrant juice Kamchatka berry), described. Food on a involves small batch processes designed experimentation...
HERV-W is a multi-locus family of human endogenous retroviruses (HERVs) that has been found to play an important role in physiology and pathology. Two particular members are special interests: ERVWE1 (coding syncytin-1, which glycoprotein essential the formation placenta) MSRV (multiple sclerosis-associated retrovirus thought significant pathology as result its increased expression brain tissue blood cells derived from patients with multiple sclerosis (MS)). Both mRNA share high level...
Abstract The aim of the research was to determine affectivity 4 different eubiotic preparations on growth performance pigs, microbial status, integrity intestinal mucosa, and some blood parameters. experiment conducted for 28 days 48 male piglets allocated six dietary treatments. Group 1 offered a diet without eubiotic; 2 – with acids mixture; 3 phytobiotic, medium-chain fatty (MCFA) yeast; probiotic, MCFA, 5 mixture, sodium butyrate; 6 butyrate. average daily weight gains feed intake were...
BACKGROUND:COVID-19 can be complicated by kidney disease, including focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS), interstitial nephritis, and acute injury (AKI). Almost all known cases of COVID-19-associated glomerulonephritis have been in patients African descent, with G1 or G2 apolipoprotein L1 (APOL1) risk alleles, they presented collapsing type FSGS. CASE REPORT:We report a case biopsy-confirmed non-collapsing FSGS secondary nephritis AKI young White man APOL1 low-risk genotype, who had...
Abstract The objective of the study was to determine effect replacing soybean meal with 5% raw seeds on growth, feed consumption and utilization growing pigs, also carcass pork quality. growth experiment conducted 120 pigs approx. 18.5 kg allocated two dietary treatments. animals from control treatment (CON) were offered a diet meal, experimental group (EXP) given (NON-GMO, Augusta var.) instead SBM. lasted 88 days. After experiment, eight each euthanized meat samples collected. No effects...
Polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMNs) produce oxidants, contributing to systemic oxidative stress. Diets rich in plant polyphenols seem decrease the risk of stress-induced disorders including cardiovascular disease.The objective this study was examine vitro effect each 14 on PMNs chemotaxis, intracellular calcium response, oxidants production.Blood samples and suspensions were obtained from 60 healthy non-smoking donors incubated with a selected polyphenol (0.5-10 µM) or control solvent. We...
Reactive oxygen species, which are implicated in the process of carcinogenesis, also responsible for cell death during chemotherapy (CHT). Therefore, aim study was to evaluate exhaled H2O2 levels non-small lung cancer (NSCLC) patients before and after CHT.Thirty (age 61.3 ± 9.3 years) with advanced NSCLC (stage IIIB-IV) 15 age-matched healthy cigarette smokers were enrolled into study. Patients received four cycles cisplatin or carboplatin vinorelbine every three weeks. Before first, second,...
Oxidative reactions can result in the formation of electronically excited species that undergo radiative decay depending on electronic transition from state to ground with subsequent ultra-weak photon emission (UPE). We investigated UPE Fe2+-EGTA (ethylene glycol-bis(β-aminoethyl ether)-N,N,N′,N′-tetraacetic acid)–H2O2 system a multitube luminometer (Peltier-cooled counter, spectral range 380 630 nm). The 92.6 µmol/L Fe2+—185.2 EGTA—2.6 mmol/L H2O2 reached 4319 ± 755 relative light units...
Ascorbic acid (AA) has antioxidant properties. However, in the presence of Fe2+/Fe3+ ions and H2O2, it may behave as a pro-oxidant by accelerating enhancing formation hydroxyl radicals (•OH). Therefore, this study we evaluated effect AA at concentrations 1 to 200 µmol/L on •OH-induced light emission (at pH 7.4 temperature 37 °C) from 92.6 Fe2+—185.2 EGTA (ethylene glycol-bis (β-aminoethyl ether)-N,N,N′,N′-tetraacetic acid)—2.6 mmol/L Fe3+—185.2 EGTA—2.6 H2O2 systems. Dehydroascorbic (DHAA)...
