Association Among Microalbuminuria and Oxidative Stress Biomarkers in Patients With Type 2 Diabetes
(LIPPINCOTT WILLIAMS & WILKINS, 2011)
Aim: Hyperglycemia in diabetes mellitus (DM) may be one of the most important factors responsible for the development of oxidative stress, which promotes the main complications in DM patients. Therefore, this study evaluated ...
Antioxidant and antiapoptotic properties of melatonin restore intestinal calcium absorption altered by menadione
(Springer, 2014-02)
The intestinal Ca2+ absorption is inhibited by menadione (MEN) through oxidative stress and apoptosis. The aim of this study was to elucidate whether the antioxidant and antiapoptotic properties of melatonin (MEL) could ...

Effects of Lecithin and Vitamin E Supplementation on Liver Steatosis and Oxidative Stress Induced by Chronic Ethanol Consumption in Rats
(SCANDINAVIAN FEDERATION LABORATORY ANIMAL SCIENCE, 2010)
Oxidative stress and lipid peroxidation, associated with ethanol, are considered important pathogenic mechanisms in the formation of hepatic steatosis. The objective of the present study was to assess the effects of ...
Role of the Endoplasmic Reticulum and Mitochondria on Quantal Catecholamine Release from Chromaffin Cells of Control and Hypertensive Rats
(Amer Soc Pharmacology Experimental Therapeutics, 2009-04-01)
Here, we present the first study on the effects of compounds that interfere with calcium (Ca(2+)) handling by the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and mitochondria on amperometrically measured quantal catecholamine release from ...
