Oxidative Stress and Antioxidant Supplementation During Endurance Exercise in the Horse
In these studies antioxidant supplementation and oxidative stress measures were the basis for determining the health and welfare of the equine endurance athlete. The first study determined that lipoic acid (LA) orally administered to horses is effective in diminishing the levels of lipid …

Oxidative stress mechanisms within the developing porcine oocyte and the effects of antioxidant supplementation
… stress with the assistance of supplemental antioxidants. A preliminary study was conducted to evaluate the effects of glutathione (GSH), N-acetyl-cysteine (NAC), and N-acetyl-cysteine-amide (NACA) supplemented to the maturation medium on intracellular GSH concentrations, nuclear maturation, …

A study of the beneficial role of thiol antioxidant supplementation in various forms of glutathione deficiency
… are on the constant lookout for new and better antioxidants that have the ability to slow, if not stop the harmful degenerative effects of free radicals in oxidative stress related disorders. Both synthetic and naturally occurring compounds are being constantly screened for their antioxidant …

The Effects of Mitochondria-targeted Antioxidant Supplementation on the Adaptive Response to Exercise, Athletic Performance, and Recovery
… muscle. It is common for athletes to consume antioxidant supplements to attenuate exercise-induced increases in skeletal muscle ROS levels, with the intention of improving performance and recovery. However, ROS play an important role as signalling molecules that mediate exercise adaptations in …

Effects of Antioxidant Supplementation with Vitamin E and Selenium on Cytokine Production in Mice Infected with Trypanosoma Cruzi
Dietary supplementation with the antioxidants vitamin E and selenium (Se) has been shown to be beneficial against the intracellular parasite Trypanosoma cruzi during experimental Chagas' disease. Supplementation of mice with vitamin E and selenium at levels well above the recommended daily …

Exercise and Immunodeficiency Affect Immunoglobulins in Endurance Horses
… were to determine effects of endurance exercise, antioxidant supplementation, and a feed rich in fiber and fat vs. a high fat sweet feed on immunoglobulin A and G concentrations as well as identify selective IgA deficiency in endurance horses of Arabian breeding. There were no effects of distance …

The role of potential antioxidant in medicinal drug-induced oxidative stress
… So it is a reasonable assumption that the antioxidant might alleviate the toxicity induced by these drugs. N-acetylcysteine (NAC), a synthetic thiol, is a free-radical scavenger and a precursor of glutathione (the main endogenous antioxidant). However, the negative charge of NAC at …

Effects of Long-term Strenuous Exercise on Oxidative DNA Damage and Proteinuria in Humans
… 40 km time trial with carbohydrate and potential antioxidant supplementation (fenugreek seed extract) were carried out with trained individuals. In the third project, a wildland firefighting three-day work shift was conducted with active duty military personnel. Assessment of oxidative DNA damage …

A Study to Investigate Factors Involved in the Development of Oesophageal Carcinoma
… with oesophageal adenocarcinoma are deficient in antioxidants. It is unknown whether the same holds true for patients with the precursor lesion, Barrett's oesophagus. The current study considered the hypothesis that patients with Barrett's oesophagus were deficient in antioxidants compared to …

Acute hypoxia-induced diaphragm dysfunction is prevented by antioxidant pre-treatment
… hypoxic stress. Muscle weakness was prevented by antioxidant supplementation, independent of the hypoxia-induced hypometabolic state. These findings highlight a potentially critical role for hypoxia in diaphragm muscle dysfunction observed in patients with acute respiratory diseases, and the …

The effect of isoflavone supplementation on cardiovascular disease parameters in men undergoing 80% VO₂pk exercise
… (LDL). Current research shows that dietary antioxidant supplementation protects against oxidative stress, and therefore may present preventative measures and treatments for patients with diseases influenced by oxidative stress. Isoflavones found in soy, such as genistein and daidzein are …

The effects of eccentric exercise on delayed onset muscle soreness, muscle function and free radical production
… the effects of dietary intervention and antioxidant supplementation on DOMS and ROS were also investigated. Study 1 demonstrated that downhill running, which resulted in DOMS, also induced the production of ROS, detected by ESR spectroscopy as well as an increases in serum malondialdehyde …

Impact of agronomical and technological factors and the oxidative protection of the matrix on polysulfide formation and atypical ageing in wine
… from PSs and ATA. In particular, the effect of antioxidant supplementation of grape must on the development of ATA during wine ageing was verified, demonstrating the most effective adjuvants to slow down AAP accumulation. Moreover, the oxygen radical absorbance capacity (ORAC) in relation to ATA …

The Effects of Carbohydrate and Quercetin on Team Sport Athletic Performance and Exercise-Induced Inflammation and Oxidative Stress
… to nutritional interventions. Carbohydrate and antioxidant supplementation have both shown evidence of producing an ergogenic effect and attenuating inflammation and oxidative stress with prolonged endurance exercise. Less is known about how these interventions may influence intermittent, …

Exploring the sex-specific programming of cardiovascular disease by maternal obesity and assessing potential interventions to the mother
… maternal, placental, and fetal oxidative stress, antioxidant interventions to the mother may be another effective treatment. Human and mouse models of maternal obesity have shown that antioxidant supplementation can prevent an adverse offspring cardiometabolic phenotype. Our lab has previously …
