Lipid Peroxidation: Production, Metabolism, and Signaling Mechanisms of Malondialdehyde... - 0 views

  • Hydroxyl radicals cause oxidative damage to cells because they unspecifically attack biomolecules [22] located less than a few nanometres from its site of generation and are involved in cellular disorders such as neurodegeneration [23, 24], cardiovascular disease [25], and cancer [26, 27].
  • It is generally assumed that in biological systems is formed through redox cycling by Fenton reaction, where free iron (Fe2+) reacts with hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) and the Haber-Weiss reaction that results in the production of Fe2+ when superoxide reacts with ferric iron (Fe3+)
  • other transition-metal including Cu, Ni, Co, and V can be responsible for formation in living cells
  • ...20 more annotations...
  • The hydroperoxyl radical () plays an important role in the chemistry of lipid peroxidation
  • The is a much stronger oxidant than superoxide anion-radical
  • Lipid peroxidation can be described generally as a process under which oxidants such as free radicals or nonradical species attack lipids containing carbon-carbon double bond(s), especially polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) that involve hydrogen abstraction from a carbon, with oxygen insertion resulting in lipid peroxyl radicals and hydroperoxides as described previously
  • under medium or high lipid peroxidation rates (toxic conditions) the extent of oxidative damage overwhelms repair capacity, and the cells induce apoptosis or necrosis programmed cell death
  • The overall process of lipid peroxidation consists of three steps: initiation, propagation, and termination
  • Once lipid peroxidation is initiated, a propagation of chain reactions will take place until termination products are produced.
  • The main primary products of lipid peroxidation are lipid hydroperoxides (LOOH)
  • Among the many different aldehydes which can be formed as secondary products during lipid peroxidation, malondialdehyde (MDA), propanal, hexanal, and 4-hydroxynonenal (4-HNE) have been extensively studied
  • MDA has been widely used for many years as a convenient biomarker for lipid peroxidation of omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids because of its facile reaction with thiobarbituric acid (TBA)
  • MDA is one of the most popular and reliable markers that determine oxidative stress in clinical situations [53], and due to MDA’s high reactivity and toxicity underlying the fact that this molecule is very relevant to biomedical research community
  • 4-HNE is considered as “second toxic messengers of free radicals,” and also as “one of the most physiologically active lipid peroxides,” “one of major generators of oxidative stress,” “a chemotactic aldehydic end-product of lipid peroxidation,” and a “major lipid peroxidation product”
  • MDA is an end-product generated by decomposition of arachidonic acid and larger PUFAs
  • Identifying in vivo MDA production and its role in biology is important as indicated by the extensive literature on the compound (over 15 800 articles in the PubMed database using the keyword “malondialdehyde lipid peroxidation” in December 2013)
  • MDA reactivity is pH-dependent
  • When pH decreases MDA exists as beta-hydroxyacrolein and its reactivity increases
  • MAA adducts are shown to be highly immunogenic [177–181]. MDA adducts are biologically important because they can participate in secondary deleterious reactions (e.g., crosslinking) by promoting intramolecular or intermolecular protein/DNA crosslinking that may induce profound alteration in the biochemical properties of biomolecules and accumulate during aging and in chronic diseases
  • MDA is an important contributor to DNA damage and mutation
  • This MDA-induced DNA alteration may contribute significantly to cancer and other genetic diseases.
  • Dietary intake of certain antioxidants such as vitamins was associated with reduced levels of markers of DNA oxidation (M1dG and 8-oxodG) measured in peripheral white blood cells of healthy subjects, which could contribute to the protective role of vitamins on cancer risk
  • 4-HNE is an extraordinarily reactive compound

Reclining Commode Wheelchair - 0 views

    wheelchair category (standard, transport, power, etc.) could be classified as a reclining wheelchairs, since the product class is built around one key feature: the capability to adjust the backrest and/or footrest into a reclined position. This feature is especially important to users who find it difficult or impossible to sit in a fully upright position, and users who sleep in their chairs frequently. For those that are looking for a more portable chair, however, products from this category may not be a great fit. When compared with a similar, non-reclining chair, a reclining wheelchair tends to weigh more and - unlike other manual models - manual wheelchairs that recline typically aren't foldable. Some people use special wheelchairs to distribute pressure and thus reduce the risk of skin sores. These chairs also increase comfort and sitting tolerance. One type of chair, called "tilt in space," changes a person's orientation while maintaining fixed hip, knee, and ankle angles. The whole seat, in effect, tilts. The other chair option is called a recline system, which basically changes the seat-to-back angle, flattening out the back of the chair and in some cases raising the legs to form a flat surface.

    Heavy duty wheelchair can either be manually-operated or motorized, each with its own pros and cons. A manual heavy-duty wheelchair gives full control of motion to the user, but the added weight from the reinforcements makes pushing or propelling the wheelchair much harder than normal. A motorized heavy duty wheelchair offers a solution to this dilemma, but is often more expensive and harder to maintain than a manual wheelchair. Some designs offer a combination of both, with a small motor assisting those pushing the wheelchair. The proper choice between types of Heavy Duty wheelchair depends largely on the user's expected level of activity. Heavy duty wheelchairs typically have larger seats than conventional wheelchairs. The frames of these wheelchairs can be made from several different reinforced metals, although a titanium wheelchair is often the most popular choice. The wheels themselves are made of thicker rubber than normal, preventing any possible failure due to the greater amount of weight supported. Most makes of heavy duty wheelchairs fold like regular wheelchairs, making storage relatively easy despite the wheelchair increased size.

Short-term testosterone therapy failed to increase CV risk in women | Endocrinology - 0 views

  •  
    24 week study of 71 women post-hysterectomy finds no increase in cardiovascular biomarkers.  Several problems with this study.  First, there was a large drop out--24%.  Second and most important, the women were pretreated with estrogen prior to Testosterone therapies were initiated.  Other studies have proposed that this protects cardiovascular risk in women on Testosterone.  Previous studies show increasing endogenous Testosterone is associated with increasing cardiovascular disease in women.   This study would be much better if no estradiol was prescribed.  That would give an unbiased view of Testosterone in post-hysterectomy women.  Not much can be taken from this study. If you doctor doesn't know this, find another doctor.  Inherent bias in this study as ties to the manufacturer of the Testosterone was disclosed. This study point to the inherent flaws in so much of the medical literature today.  Most would read the headlines and read no further, but the "further" dispels the headline as flawed.

Effect of resistance exercise on muscle steroidogenesis | Journal of Applied Physiology - 0 views

  • skeletal muscle cell cultures incubated with DHEA produced testosterone in a DHEA dose-dependent manner
  • Muscle joins a growing list of tissues found to be capable of steroidogenesis
  • testosterone appears to have a role in the maintenance of muscle mass in women, although the importance of this role has not yet been fully established.
  • ...7 more annotations...
  • Circulating testosterone concentrations are generally elevated following a bout of resistance exercise in men (24, 31, 46, 52), whereas findings for the effect of resistance exercise on circulating testosterone in women are equivocal, with increases (10, 42) and no changes observed (22, 31)
  • swimming (51) and treadmill running (2) can significantly increase muscle testosterone concentrations in male and female rats
  • This upregulation of muscle testosterone in rats appears, at least in part, to be due to an increase in 3β-HSD and 17β-HSD type 1 expression
  • The primary finding in this study was that muscle steroidogenesis (i.e., testosterone production) in highly resistance-trained humans was not affected by an acute bout of heavy resistance exercise
  • A secondary finding was that the apparent molecular mass of 17β-HSD type 3 was increased following a single bout of heavy resistance exercise.
  • No differences were found for muscle testosterone or steroidogenic enzyme (17β-HSD type 3 and 3β-HSD types 1 and 2) concentrations between sexes or in response to resistance exercise
  • In conclusion, heavy resistance exercise did not induce changes in muscle steroidogenesis as measured by muscle concentrations of testosterone, 3β-HSD types 1 and 2, and 17β-HSD type 3 in highly resistance-trained young men and women.
  •  
    Resistance exercise did not increase muscle concentrations of Testosterone in men or women.  The individuals in this study were actively training.  These were not sedentary individuals.

Tricycle Manufacturers - 0 views

    Tricycles make cycling accessible to all, whatever personal challenges. There are a wide range of disability cycles that suit people with a variety of learning and physical disabilities, as well as health issues. Tricycles have 3 wheels, which means that the rider does not need to be able to balance. This is particularly useful for people with learning disabilities, such as Dyspraxia, and those recovering from illnesses. Tricycles can be fitted with foot plates to make it easier for riders to rotate the pedals and they come in upright or recumbent (horizontal sitting position). For adults and children with balance issues, stabilisers can also be fitted to standard bikes, which makes them more like tricycles. Tricycles come in a variety of accessible styles for people of all abilities including many persons with spinal cord injury disabilities. Tricycles is a great upper body workout and can provide a great sense of freedom for persons with disabilities. While the high cost prevents many from enjoying Tricycles they are steadily growing in popularity. Tricycle Deluxe Double Hand Drive: Frame : Made by E.R.W.

The pedals are replaced with handles that also steer, and riders use their arms to push the handles around to drive the chain and wheels. Most hand cycles have 3 wheels, although some have 4 wheels. 4-wheel cycles may have power assistance instead of the rider turning handles,or they may be built for going down hill, in which case gravity powers the bike. As with tricycles, hand cycles can have upright seats or low down recumbent seats. Specialist 'clip on' cycles are also available that can be attached

Tricycle For Disabled Children - 0 views

  •  
    The tricycles are individually designed to meet the needs of each disabled child and help provide physiotherapy, build muscle tone and promote play. Italso help benefit growth and development in children with disabilities, enabling them to keep active and retain their independence. Disabled children get huge physical and emotional benefits from having the specially tricycles, which are each custom made to suit the individual child's needs. Riding a tricycle provides both fun and fitness, and is a therapeutic activity that allows children to exercise their lower extremities. As the muscles move through cycling motions, they are flexed, extended and stretched. This range of motion is crucial for children with disabilities, because muscles are incapable of keeping up with bone growth unless fully extended. Tricycles are provided to severely disabled children and adults and come in two sizes, 20 inch and 24 inch models. These trikes are grant funded and to qualify for one of these, an individual must suffer from a condition such as, but not limited to, Cerebral Palsy, Down Syndrome, Traumatic Brain Injury or Autism. Trunk support system is ideal for riders who have trouble remaining upright while seated. An optional headrest is available. A headrest can be purchased with either a flat or contoured headpiece, and adjusts both horizontally and vertically for optimum positioning. The Front Pulley System maintains a level pedal position for children whose extreme tone forces the front of the pedal downward. Turn the oval knob to raise and lower the handlebar. A handbrake for the conventional handlebar will arrive installed on Large tricycle. Open access combined with a low transfer step makes it easy to get on and off trikes.
