A Review of Antioxidants

Abstract: Antioxidants play the essential role in reducing the free radicals. Free radicals can cause various changes in human body from DNA mutation to cell death. Free radical formation form the biological basis of several medical problems including cancer. The antioxidants are useful in preventing the transfer of premalignant lesion to malignancy. Hence are usually prescribed in oral premalignant lesions like leukoplakia, lichen planus, oral submucous fibrosis. Antioxidants include beta carotene, carotenoid, vitamin … Show more

“…The enzymatic antioxidant defense is an important system for preventing and reducing oxidative stress in mammalian cells. Primary enzymatic antioxidants of this defense system, including SOD, CAT, and GPx, can enhance cells' ability to resist oxidative damage caused by H 2 O 2 (Birangane et al., 2011 ; Tan et al., 2020 ). Therefore, to examine the effect of CNPE on the antioxidant enzyme activities in our HepG2 cells, the cells were pretreated with CNPE (1–100 μg/mL) or 10 μM C3G (used as a positive control) for 24 h, followed by 300 μM of H 2 O 2 for 24 h. As shown in Figures 7a–c , the H 2 O 2 treatment only significantly decreased the levels of SOD, CAT, and GPx activities compared to the control group.…”

“…Antioxidants are substances produced by body cells and body fluids including saliva and play an important role in various physiologic and metabolic processes of the body. Antioxidants are substances that when present at low concentrations as compared to those of an oxidizable substrate (Example-Proteins, Lipids ), help to delay or prevent oxidation of various substances [3].…”
