Maternal deprivation (MD) causes perinatal stress, with subsequent behavioral changes
which resemble the symptoms of schizophrenia. The NADPH oxidase is one of the major …

Developing brain is much more sensitive to all kind of stressors than the developed brain.
Early maternal deprivation causes some behavioural and physiological effects on rats. After …

Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is a highly prevalent and impairing disorder. Oxidative
stress is implicated in its pathogenesis. Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate …

BACKGROUND: Inflammation and reactive oxygen species (ROS) are important in the
development of perinatal brain injury. The ROS-generating enzyme NADPH oxidase (Nox2) …

Mitochondrion, the primary source of reactive oxygen species (ROS), is also the target of
ROS. 8-Hydroxy-2′-deoxyguanosine (8-OH-dG) is the major end-product of damaged DNA …

Oxidative protein modification (OPM) was studied in the striatum, hippocampus, and
hypothalamus of rats of various ages that were subjected to prenatal stress. The basal level …

Normal pregnancy involves increased renal sodium reabsorption, metabolism, and oxygen
consumption, which can cause increased oxidative stress (OS). OS can decrease nitric …

The effects of late prenatal stress on free-radical oxidation of proteins in Sprague–Dawley
rats were studied in the cerebral cortex, striatum, hippocampus, and hypothalamus, along …

Oxidative stress during development may predispose humans to neurodegenerative
disorders in old age. Moreover, numerous ailments of brain disproportionately affect one of …

The present report evaluates the effect of global perinatal asphyxia on several parameters of
oxidative stress and cell viability in rat brain tissue sampled at an extended neonatal period …
