Example sentences for: peroxidation
How can you use “peroxidation” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:
It has been proposed that vitamin E may incorporate into cellular membranes by association of the tocopherol side chain with the polyenoic fatty acid residues in the membrane fatty acids [ 15 19 ] . This interaction may stabilize cell membranes by making highly unsaturated fatty acids less liable to peroxidation as well as by making highly unsaturated fatty acids less available for phospholipid hydrolysis by phospholipase [ 15 16 ] . The latter action may reduce mobilization of arachidonic acid (AA) from the membranes and in this way reduce the amount of AA available as a substrate to cyclooxygenase and/or lipoxygenase to produce eicosanoids with mitogenic and with inflammatory properties [ 17 20 ] . Other possible antitumor actions include: induction of apoptosis, interference with hormone production, modulation of cellular signaling and gene transcription, and induction of differentiation [ 4 21 22 23 24 ] .
In addition to its role in reproduction, vitamin E is known to be a lipid-soluble antioxidant that blocks peroxidation of polyunsaturated fatty acids in cellular membranes and is known to stabilize biological membranes [ 14 15 16 17 ] . Because vitamin E has multiple biological activities, it is best to report dosage in weight units.
antioxidant administration) studies will be necessary to determine whether there is a causal relationship between lipid peroxidation and TPN-induced liver disease in preterm infants.
Thus, 97% of the variation in tumor growth rate could be explained by the diet induced decrease in GPX activity and by increased lipid peroxidation in the tumor following DOX treatment.
Smoking incites an immunologic response to vascular injury, described as oxidative stress leading to lipid peroxidation, endothelial cell dysfunction, and foam cell proliferation in the tunica media [1,2].
