Abstract:Background: Studies have shown that vitamin E as an antioxidant protects omega-3 fatty acids (FAs) from oxidation. Several studies have evaluated the effect of omega-3 FAs and vitamin E co-supplementation on obesity indices; however, the ...
Abstract. Resveratrol (RES) in combination with antioxidant vitamins is reported to be more effective in protecting the cells from oxidative stress rather than any of these antioxidants alone. In continuation to our previous work using ...
Abstract.Background: Several studies have investigated the effect of omega-3 fatty acids and vitamin E on oxidative stress and inflammation, but their findings are inconsistent. The aim of this meta-analysis is to elucidate the overall effects of co-...
Abstract. Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a globally growing health problem and one of the most prevalent endocrine disorders worldwide. Chronic hyperglycemia status favors the manifestation of oxidative stress by ...
Abstract.Background: Contrast–induced nephropathy (CIN) is a relevant cause of acute renal dysfunction and is associated with an increased morbidity and mortality. Purpose: Verify the effect of α-tocopherol pre-treatment on CIN prevention in subjects ...
Abstract. Aim of this work was to determine the effects of dietary intake vitamin E and Se on lipid peroxidation (LPO) as Thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS) and on the antioxidative defense mechanisms in heart tissues of rats treated with ...
Abstract.Background: Polycystic ovary syndrome is one of the most important factors in female infertility. Oxidative stress is likely to contribute to increased insulin and androgen production in the ovaries, as well as probably impairing follicle ...
Abstract. Protective action by annatto-derived delta-tocotrienol (δ-TCT) and soy-derived alpha-tocopherol (α-TOC) through the regulation of PI3K/Akt-Cyclin D1 pathway against the nicotine-induced DNA ...
Abstract. The present review explored the anti-inflammatory and immunomodulatory properties of vitamin E, which has protective action against osteoporosis. A systematic review of the literature was conducted to identify the published bone studies on ...
Abstract.Background: Disturbed oxidant/antioxidant status is involved in pathogenesis of anemia in end stage renal disease. There is evidence that vitamin E supplementation can increase blood hemoglobin in ...
Abstract. Background: Vitamin E has anti-cancer properties, which was demonstrated mainly due to its antioxidant effect. Several epidemiological studies have investigated the association between vitamin E consumption and the risk of bladder cancer. ...
Abstract. Vitamin E can reduce the level of lipid peroxidation and the related markers such as urine and plasma levels of isoprostanes. However, effects of vitamin E supplementation on plasma and urine level of ...
Abstract.Ageing is associated with a loss of balance and mobility. This study was conducted to determine if the use of heat, vitamins alone or heat with vitamins could increase mobility and balance in adults with mobility impairments. ...
Abstract. The purpose of this study is to systematically review the published literature reporting vitamin E intake levels and serum concentrations in order to obtain a global overview of α-tocopherol status. Articles published between 2000 and 2012 were ...
Background/Objectives: Various studies have linked vitamin deficiencies in early pregnancy with birth defects. The objective of this study was to identify the relationship between micronutrient deficiency and congenital malformations (CM). Subjects and ...
In this study the effect of increasing dietary alpha tocopherol on vitamin E tissue concentrations, lipid peroxidation (malondialdehyde), antioxidant enzymes, and fatty acid composition has been investigated in farmed Atlantic salmon. To this end fish (...
Background: The main objective of the study was to analyze the potential ability of vitamins E, C, and D, used as nutritional supplements, in averting inflammation and oxidative stress in the course of diabetes mellitus. Methods: Male mice were divided ...
This study was designed to assess oxidative damage and cell apoptosis in the uterus of rats with streptozotocin (STZ)-induced diabetes. The role of vitamin E (VE) and/or folic acid (FA) in the protection from such damage was also evaluated. The treatments ...
Purpose: This study aimed to investigate the neuroprotective effects of vitamin E for preventing chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN). Methods: A comprehensive search from 1973 through July 2011 identified randomized controlled trials (RCTs) ...
The main function of vitamin E is to protect against scavenging of reactive oxygen species; it is the primary protective agent against lipid peroxidation. Overt vitamin E deficiency is present only in patients with severe malnutrition and certain chronic ...
