lycopene/hemorrhage

Early brain injury (EBI), following subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH), includes blood-brain barrier (BBB) disruption and consequent edema formation. This study aims to evaluate the effect of lycopene on early brain injury and inflammation in SAH. Neurological deficits, brain water content and Evans blue

The aim of this study was to examine the influence of lycopene and beta-carotene on the inflammatory status in a rat model of induced-colitis. Using the 2,4,6-trinitrobenzenesulfonic acid (TNBS) model, colitis was induced in thirty-two male Wistar rats divided into four groups. Each group received a

OBJECTIVE To evaluate the efficacy of systemic lycopene along with routine scaling and root planing in terms of changes in clinical parameters and levels of circulating tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α), salivary interleukin 1beta (IL-1ß), and uric acid in chronic periodontitis. METHODS Forty-two

The present study was carried out to evaluate the protective role of lycopene on cytotoxicity induced by mercury in albino mice. The animals were randomly divided into seven groups. Group I (control) were treated with tap water Group II (positive control) were treated with 20 mg kg(-1) d(-1)

BACKGROUND Obstructive jaundice, a frequently observed condition caused by obstruction of the common bile duct or its flow and seen in many clinical situations, may end up with serious complications like sepsis, immune depression, coagulopathy, wound breakdown, gastrointestinal hemorrhage, and

Lycopene is a naturally occurring carotenoid found abundantly in red fruits and vegetables. Myriads of literature documented potential health benefits of lycopene, owing to its sublime capacity of suppressing oxidative stress, inflammation, and modulation of various cell survival pathways. Due to

OBJECTIVE Several epidemiologic studies have suggested a role of tomato products in decreasing the risk of the development of diseases related to oxidative stress (cancer and other chronic diseases). Oxidative stress may result in periodontal tissue damage either directly or indirectly. Lycopene, a

BACKGROUND This study, we aimed to investigate the protective effect of lycopene in lung injury rat model. METHODS Twenty eight Wistar rats were enrolled into the study. Control group (n= 7) were applied PBS + ethanol (9/1). A single dose of 100 mg/kg oleic acid (OA) intravenously was administrated

In the current study, African catfish, Clarias gariepinus, was exposed to a sublethal concentration of carbofuran (CF) to investigate its negative effects on biochemical and oxidative stress biomarkers. Also, the putative role of lycopene (LYC) administration in alleviating these negative effects

BACKGROUND Supplementation of 5-aminosalicylic acid (5-ASA) and of iron are among the principal therapies in patients with inflammatory bowel disease. Therapeutic iron, as well as heme iron from chronic mucosal bleeding, can increase iron-mediated oxidative stress in colitis. This study was designed

OBJECTIVE Tomatoes are rich in lycopene. This study explored the efficacy of a lycopene-rich tomato product in androgen-independent prostate cancer and the reasons patients participated in an "alternative medicine" study. METHODS This Phase II study evaluated 46 patients with androgen-independent

OBJECTIVE The aim of the present study was to compare the effect of systemically administered lycopene (LycoRed) as a monotherapy and as an adjunct to scaling and root planing in gingivitis patients. METHODS Twenty systemically healthy patients showing clinical signs of gingivitis were involved in a

The mechanisms underlying poor outcome following subarachnoid haemorrhage (SAH) are complex and multifactorial. They include early brain injury, spreading depolarisation, inflammation, oxidative stress, macroscopic cerebral vasospasm, and microcirculatory disturbances. Nrf2 is a global promoter of
