The effect of Omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acid supplementation on lipid composition, oxidative stress, and aldehyde concentrations in rat liver and brain
(2014-01-22)Oxidative stress is caused by an imbalance between the production and removal of reactive oxygen species (ROS). Polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA), due to their multiple carbon-carbon double bonds, react readily with ROS ... -
The effect of secoisolariciresinol diglucoside on oxidative stress and inflammation in cardiac iron overload
(2013-02-01)Chronic cardiac iron overload directly correlates with cardiac dysfunction and may ultimately cause heart failure. Although recent studies have suggested that altered calcium homeostasis and increased reactive oxygen ... -
Lipoic acid and its potential role in the treatment of oxidative-induced injury of A549 lung epithelial cells
(2013-02-01)Oxidative stress is the imbalance between prooxidants and antioxidants within a cell that can cause and/or contribute to the progression of many pathological conditions. Reactive oxygen species (ROS) formed from the ... -
The potential uses of virus-infected symbionts to improve drought and heat stress in trees for improvement, climate change resilience, and restoration
(2023)With the rapid changes occurring to the climate of the boreal forest, many populations of trees are facing increased stresses and seeing lower productivity and survival. Conventional tree improvement programs take decades ...
