This protocol describes a procedure for determining glutathione (GSH) and glutathione
disulfide (GSSG) concentrations in blood and other tissues. Artifactual oxidation to GSSG of …

Overweight and obesity in children and adolescents are overwhelming problems in western
countries. Adipocytes, far from being only fat deposits, are capable of endocrine functions …

Adults demonstrate an upregulation of their pro-and anti-oxidant mechanisms in response to
acute exercise while systematic exercise training enhances their antioxidant capacity …

Background/aim: The aim was to assess the differences between physical activity and
physical fitness in obese, overweight, and normal-weight children. Materials and methods …

Purpose To investigate the association between redox status in erythrocytes and skeletal
muscle with dietary nutrient intake and markers of physical fitness and habitual physical …

Physical fitness is related to well-being and health. Adolescence is a key period in the
psychological and social development of the person, in which interpersonal relationships …

Oxidative stress (OS) is a potential molecular mechanism for lead-induced toxicities, yet, we
have limited understanding of the relation between low-level lead (Pb) exposure and OS …

Nutritional status might contribute to variations induced by physical activity (PA) in redox
status biomarkers. We investigated the influence of PA on redox status and nitric oxide (NO) …

The World Health Organization has recommended performing at least 60 min a day of
moderate-to-vigorous physical activity (MVPA) and reducing sedentarism in children and …

Background Although it is well known that obesity is frequently associated with reduced
levels of habitual physical activity (HPA), which contributes to determining severe oxidative …
