Natural Substances vs. Approved Drugs in the Treatment of Main Cardiovascular Disorders—Is There a Breakthrough?
(MDPI (Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute), 2023)
Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) are a group of diseases with a very high rate of morbidity and mortality. The clinical presentation of CVDs can vary from asymptomatic to classic symptoms such as chest pain in patients with ...
Optimization of extraction and characterization of Urtica dioica L. leaf extract for the evaluation of dose-dependent response in experimental hypertension
(Institut za proučavanje lekovitog bilja Dr Josif Pančić, Beograd, 2018)
This doctoral dissertation was focused on the optimization of the extraction parameters to achieve the maximum yield of phenolic compounds in the Urtica dioica L. leaf extracts. The extract with the highest content of ...
Inflammation Promotes Oxidative and Nitrosative Stress in Chronic Myelogenous Leukemia
(MDPI, 2022)
Chronic inflammation is characterized by the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS), reactive nitrogen species, and inflammatory cytokines in myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPNs). In addition to these parameters, the ...
Interplay between Comprehensive Inflammation Indices and Redox Biomarkers in Testicular Germ-Cell Tumors
(Journal of Personalized Medicine, 2022)
Sustained and dysregulated inflammation, concurrent tumor-induced immune suppression, and oxidative stress are profoundly involved in cancer initiation, presentation, and perpetuation. Within this prospective study, we ...
Hyperbaric oxygenation protects the kidney against ischemia-reperfusion injury
(Undersea & Hyperbaric Medical Soc Inc, Durham, 2020)
Background: Acute kidney injury (AKI) as a consequence of ischemia is a common clinical event that can lead to unacceptably high morbidity and mortality. Hyperbaric oxygen (HBO2) preconditioning has been shown to prevent ...
Bioactive-rich Sideritis scardica tea (mountain tea) is as potent as Camellia sinensis tea at inducing cellular antioxidant defences and preventing oxidative stress
(Wiley, Hoboken, 2013)
BACKGROUNDIn several countries, tea (hot-water infusions of dried Camellia sinensis (CS) leaves) is a major source of antioxidant flavonoids, and its consumption has been associated with several favourable outcomes. Other ...
Hypolipidemic and antioxidant effects of buckwheat leaf and flower mixture in hyperlipidemic rats
(Assoc Basic Medical Sci Federation Bosnia & Herzegovina Sarajevo, Cekalusa, 2013)
As a source of biologically active compounds, buckwheat has beneficial effects in nutrition due to its high content of flavonoids, particularly rutin. Aim of our study was to examine effects of buckwheat on plasma lipid ...
Fish oil supplementation improved liver phospholipids fatty acid composition and parameters of oxidative stress in male wistar rats
(Wiley, Hoboken, 2012)
In the present study, we examined the effects of fish oil supplementation in 3 months old male Wistar rats on changes in plasma and liver lipid metabolism and oxidative stress parameters. Twenty Wistar rats were randomly ...
Highly potent antioxidant olea europaea l. Leaf extract affects carotid and renal haemodynamics in experimental hypertension: the role of oleuropein
(Excli Journal Managing Office, Dortmund, 2018)
Haemodynamic alterations in carotid and renal arteries are associated with the severity of target organ damage in patients with hypertension. Dietary habits, such as the Mediterranean diet, regulate blood pressure and ...
Oxidative and nitrosative stress in myeloproliferative neoplasms: the impact on the AKT/mTOR signaling pathway
(Balkan Union of Oncology (B.U.ON.), 2018)
Purpose: A common feature of malignancies is increased reactive oxygen species (ROS) and reactive nitrogen species (RNS). We analyzed the influence of oxidative and nitrosative stress on the activation of AKT/mTOR signaling ...
