13. Estresse oxidativo e bioluminescência nos fungos Gerronema viridilucens e Mycena lucentipes / Oxidative stress and bioluminescence in the fungi Gerronema viridilucens and Mycena lucentipes
Espécies reativas de oxigênio (EROs) são produzidas normalmente durante o metabolismo de organismos aeróbios. Fungos degradadores de lignina geram estas espécies também no processo de degradação da lignina. As espécies de fungos bioluminescentes Gerronema viridilucens e Mycena lucentipes foram utilizadas para se estabelecer possível dependência en

14. Acute effects of resistance exercise and intermittent intense aerobic exercise on blood cell count and oxidative stress in trained middle-aged women
The aim of this study was to compare the effect of an intermittent intense aerobic exercise session and a resistance exercise session on blood cell counts and oxidative stress parameters in middle-aged women. Thirty-four women were selected and divided into three groups: RE group (performing 60 min of resistance exercises, N = 12), spinning group (performing

15. Plant responses to stresses: role of ascorbate peroxidase in the antioxidant protection
When plants are exposed to stressful environmental conditions, the production of Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS) increases and can cause significant damage to the cells. Antioxidant defenses, which can detoxify ROS, are present in plants. A major hydrogen peroxide detoxifying system in plant cells is the ascorbate-glutathione cycle, in which, ascorbate peroxid

16. The influence of hydroxyurea on oxidative stress in sickle cell anemia
OBJECTIVE: The oxidative stress in 20 sickle cell anemia patients taking hydroxyurea and 13 sickle cell anemia patients who did not take hydroxyurea was compared with a control group of 96 individuals without any hemoglobinopathy. METHODS: Oxidative stress was assessed by thiobarbituric acid reactive species production, the Trolox-equivalent antioxidant capa

17. Efeito do tratamento com estradiol sobre o controle da pressão arterial e o estresse oxidativo
In this thesis was studied the sympathovagal and the nitric oxide (NO)/reactive oxygen species (ROS) balances in ovariectomized female rats. It was verified the effectiveness of 17b-estradiol in the blood pressure (BP) control and cardiovascular oxidative stress using low doses of estrogen. Then, we developed three protocols to evaluate morphometric, hemodyn

18. Investigação de parâmetros de estresse oxidativo e inflamação em pacientes com doença de Fabry submetidos à terapia de reposição enzimática : correlações com globotriaosilceramida
Fabry disease (FD) is an X-linked inborn error of glycosphingolipid catabolism due to deficient activity of C-galactosidase A. Patients present as main findings angiokeratomas in skin and acroparesthesias and usually die in adult age of renal failure and stroke. As a consequence of the enzyme deficiency, the substrates (mainly globotriaosylceramide - Gb3) ac

19. Long-term melatonin treatment reduces ovarian mass and enhances tissue antioxidant defenses during ovulation in the rat
Melatonin regulates the reproductive cycle, energy metabolism and may also act as a potential antioxidant indoleamine. The present study was undertaken to investigate whether long-term melatonin treatment can induce reproductive alterations and if it can protect ovarian tissue against lipid peroxidation during ovulation. Twenty-four adult female Wistar rats,

20. Efeito da creatina e do piruvato sobre alguns parâmetros comportamentais e bioquímicos em ratos submetidos à administração intra-hipocampal de fenilalanina
The objective of this work was to investigate the possible preventive effect of pyruvate and creatine (substances with energetic and antioxidant properties) on the behavioral and biochemical alterations caused by intrahippocampal administration of phenylalanine (Phe) in Wistar rats. It was developed a experimental chemical model of phenylketonuria(PKU) by in

21. The combined effect of cooper and low pH on antioxidant defenses and biochemical parameters in neotropical fish pacu, Piaractus mesopotamicus (Holmberg, 1887).
Copper sulfate is widely used in aquaculture. Exposure to this compound can be harmful to fish, resulting in oxidative metabolism alterations and gill tissue damage. Pacu, Piaractus mesopotamicus, (wt = 43.4 ± 3.35 g) were distributed in experimental tanks (n = 10; 180 l) and exposed for 48 h to control (without copper addition), 0.4Cu (0.4 mg l?1), 0CupH (

22. Avaliação de parâmetros bioquímicos e comportamentais em peixe-zebra (Danio rerio) : uma abordagem sobre o sistema purinérgico, colinérgico e efeitos promovidos pela taurina no modelo de exposição aguda ao etanol
The zebrafish (Danio rerio) is a small teleost fish that belongs to the Cyprinidae family, which has been studied in different scientific areas. This species has evolutively conserved genes, several neurotransmitter systems characterized, and a wide behavioral repertoire, which may be modulated by distinct drugs. Thus, this thesis aims to study biochemical p

23. Avaliação do estado oxidante / antioxidante sistêmico e das defesas antioxidantes eritrocitárias em cães com linfoma multicêntrico com e sem anemia / Evaluation of the systemic oxidant / antioxidant status and erythrocyte antioxidant defenses in dogs with multicentric lymphoma with and without anemia
Anemia é a anormalidade hematológica mais comum em pacientes com câncer. Aproximadamente 30% dos cães com linfoma são anêmicos. A anemia pode ocorrer devido substituição da medula óssea por células tumorais, sangramentos ou hemólise, porém mais frequentemente é associada à doença crônica. Estudos realizados em seres humanos com neoplasias hem

24. Effect of (-)-∆9-tetrahydrocannabinoid on the hepatic redox state of mice
(-)-∆9-Tetrahydrocannabinol (∆9-THC), a psychoactive component of marijuana, has been reported to induce oxidative damage in vivo and in vitro. In this study, we administered ∆9-THC to healthy C57BL/6J mice aged 15 weeks in order to determine its effect on hepatic redox state. Mice were divided into 3 groups: ∆9-THC (N = 10), treated with 10 mg/kg bo
