The World Health Organization (W.H.O). defines oral potentially malignant disorders (OPMDs) as "A histologically proven lesion that is associated with a significantly increased risk of malignant transformation."Oral leukoplakia is the most commonly occurring oral potentially malignant disorder.
The first objective of this project is to verify the feasibility of using the analysis of salivary concentration of BU during individual adjustments of this drug in the period that precedes HSCT. Another question related to this project is with reference to the effects that the Bu concentration in
Athlete's body, by its high oxygen demand and increased aerobic metabolism, is exposed to the formation and oxidizing action of reactive oxygen species (ROS). Imbalance between the mechanisms of ROS generation and antioxidative defense of the body can lead to oxidative stress expressed by elevated
Glutathione (gamma-glutamyl-cysteine-glycine; GSH) is a powerful antioxidant found within every cell. GSH is predominantly known to protect the cells from damage caused by free radicals. The concentration of glutathione declines with age, stress, and in some age-related diseases. When glutathione
OBJECTIVES:
- To determine whether there are any changes in pro-oxidant-antioxidant profiles in patients who are at high risk for developing prostate cancer.
- To compare the profiles of these patients with those of healthy controls.
OUTLINE: Participants undergo blood sample collection. Samples are
Specific Aims:
Critically ill neonates have demonstrated low concentrations of the antioxidant glutathione and a high incidence of disease associated with oxidative injury compared to healthy neonates. Cysteine is considered to be a conditionally essential amino acid for neonates and is the rate
