Studies have shown that various antioxidants are decreased in different age-related degenerative diseases and thus, oxidative stress would a central role the pathogenesis of many disorders involve neuronal degeneration, including Alzheimer's disease (AD). The present study aimed to assess nutritional status Se AD patients compare with control subjects normal cognitive function. case–control was carried out on group elderly ( n 28) compared 29), both aged between 60 89 years. intake evaluated...
The purpose of the study is to determine influence serum thiamine, glutathione peroxidase (GPx) activity, and protein carbonyl concentrations in hospital mortality patients with septic shock.This prospective included all shock on admission or during intensive care unit (ICU) stay, older than 18 years, admitted 1 3 ICUs Botucatu Medical School, from January August 2012. Demographic information, clinical evaluation, blood sample were taken within first 72 hours patient's after diagnosis for...
Alterations in selenium (Se) status may result suboptimal amounts of selenoproteins, which have been associated with increased oxidative stress levels. The Pro198Leu polymorphism at the glutathione peroxidase-1 (GPx1) gene is supposed to be functional. response Se status, GPx activity, and levels DNA damage a supplementation trial between genotypes related that was investigated.A randomized conducted 37 morbidly obese women. Participants consumed one Brazil nut, provided approximately 290 μg...
A importância da determinação biodisponibilidade de minerais em dietas está centralizada no estabelecimento das recomendações ingestão destes elementos função necessidades dos indivíduos. Assim, os estudos nutrientes devem ser específicos para cada país, tendo vista a grande diversidade e Nesta abordagem, procurou-se discutir as metodologias disponíveis avaliação fatores que podem interferir nesta medida, visando motivar jovens pesquisadores se interessarem por esta área pesquisa promete...
The Brazilian Amazon region has selenium (Se)-rich soil, which is associated with higher Se levels in populations fed locally grown produce. Brazil nuts are a major source of dietary and included meals offered to children enrolled public preschool Macapá. aim this study was examine intake status these children.The Macapá group consisted 41 from who received 15 30 g 3 d/wk. control 88 the nearby city Belém did not receive nut-enriched meals. In both groups, school comprised ≥90% children's...
Recentes pesquisas experimentais e clínicas têm reforçado a importância do zinco na saúde humana. O possibilita várias funções bioquímicas, pois é componente de inúmeras enzimas, dentre estas, álcool desidrogenase, superóxido dismutase, anidrase carbônica, fosfatase alcalina enzimas sistema nervoso central. Participa divisão celular, expressão genética, processos fisiológicos como crescimento desenvolvimento, transcrição morte age estabilizador estruturas membranas componentes celulares,...
The present investigation is the first part of an initiative to prepare a regional map natural abundance selenium in various areas Brazil, based on analysis bean and soil samples. Continuous-flow hydride generation electrothermal atomic absorption spectrometry (HG-ET AAS) with situ trapping iridium-coated graphite tube has been chosen because high sensitivity relative simplicity. microwave-assisted acid digestion for samples was tested complete recovery inorganic organic compounds...
