OSA oxidative stress

The sleep-breathing condition obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is characterized by repetitive upper airway collapse, which can exacerbate oxidative stress and free radical generation, thereby detrimentally impacting both motor and sensory nerve function and inducing muscular damage. OSA development is promoted by increasing proportions of fast-twitch muscle fibers in the genioglossus. Orientin, a water-soluble dietary C-glycosyl flavonoid with antioxidant properties, increased the expression of slow myosin heavy chain (MyHC) and signaling factors associated with AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) activation both in vivo and in vitro ...

Intermittent hypoxia in patients with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) hypopnea syndrome (OSAHS) is associated with pharyngeal cavity collapse during sleep. The effect of human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells (HUCMSCs) on OSA-induced oxidative damage in the genioglossus and whether nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 (Nrf2) or its upstream genes play a key role in this process remains unclear. This study aimed to identify the key factors responsible for oxidative damage during OSAHS through Nrf2 analysis and hypothesize the mechanism of HUCMSC therapy...

BACKGROUND: Obstructive sleep apnea-hypopnea syndrome (OSAHS) is a common respiratory disease with potential lethality. At present, the commonly used treatment method is continuous positive airway pressure ventilation, but with the prolongation of the course of the disease, the effect of single ventilation on the improvement of oxidative stress levels is not good. Lipoic acid is a commonly used antioxidant in clinics. In this paper, lipoic acid combined with continuous positive airway pressure ventilation is used to explore whether it has a better therapeutic effect on patients...

Despite the high prevalence and significant health burden of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), its underlying pathophysiology remains incompletely understood. This comprehensive review explores the emerging connection between vitamin D deficiency and OSA, discusses potential mechanisms underlying this association, and explores the therapeutic implications of these findings. Recent research has consistently highlighted the high incidence of vitamin D deficiency among patients with OSA, which often occurs independently of geographical location...

BACKGROUND: Low-quality sleep and obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) can result in series of chronic diseases. Healthy diet has been considered as an effective and simple strategy to optimize sleep quality. However, current evidence on the correlation of dietary composite antioxidant intake with sleep health remained obscure. AIM OF THE STUDY: To determine the relationship of composite dietary antioxidant index (CDAI) and sleep health. METHODS: Cross-sectional analyses were based on National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) 2005-2008...

Oxidative stress in patients suffering from obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS) is associated with a low-grade systemic inflammation, immune disturbance, and increased invasion of monocytes into the endothelium. Besides continuous positive airway pressure (PAP), hypoglossal nerve stimulation (HNS) has become a promising treatment option for patients with OSAS. We aimed to analyse the influence of HNS therapy on the cellular characteristics relevant for adhesion and immune regulation of circulating CD14/CD16 monocyte subsets...

BACKGROUND: The objective of this study was to determine the independent and incremental values of advanced oxidative protein product (AOPP), interleukin 6 (IL-6), and growth differentiation factor 15 (GDF15) in identifying arteriosclerosis in patients with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). METHODS: A total of 104 individuals diagnosed with OSA by polysomnography were recruited in our study. Arteriosclerosis was defined by measuring the ultrafast pulse wave velocity of the carotid artery...

Background Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) affects 10-26% of adults in the United States with known sex differences in prevalence and severity. OSA is characterized by elevated inflammation, oxidative stress (OS), and cognitive dysfunction. However, there is a paucity of data regarding the role of sex in the OSA phenotype. Prior findings suggest women exhibit different OSA phenotypes than men, which could result in under-reported OSA prevalence in women. To examine the relationship between OSA and sex, we used chronic intermittent hypoxia (CIH) to model OSA in rats...

Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), a respiratory sleep disorder associated with cardiovascular diseases, is more prevalent in men. However, OSA occurrence in pregnant women rises to a level comparable to men during late gestation, creating persistent effects on both maternal and offspring health. The exact mechanisms behind OSA-induced cardiovascular diseases remain unclear, but inflammation and oxidative stress play a key role. Animal models using intermittent hypoxia (IH), a hallmark of OSA, reveal several pro-inflammatory signaling pathways at play in males, such as TLR4/MyD88/NF-κB/MAPK, miRNA/NLRP3, and COX signaling, along with shifts in immune cell populations and function...

Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a common sleep disordered breathing diseases that characterized by chronic intermittent hypoxia (CIH). This work aimed to explore the role of circ-CIMIRC in CIH-induced myocardial injury. CIH aggravated myocardial tissue damage in rats. Circ_CIMIRC overexpression promoted apoptosis and reduced the colocalization of Tom20 and Parkin and mitophagy in CIH-treated H9c2 cells. Additionally, FbxL4 interacted with PINK1, FbxL4 silencing reduced PINK1 ubiquitination in H9c2 cells. Two major ubiquitination sites (K319 and K433) were responsible for ubiquitination of PINK1...

Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a common respiratory disorder. Multiple organs, especially the central nervous system (CNS), are damaged, and dysfunctional when intermittent hypoxia (IH) occurs during sleep for a long time. The quality of life of individuals with OSA is significantly impacted by cognitive decline, which also escalates the financial strain on their families. Consequently, the development of novel therapies becomes imperative. IH induces oxidative stress, endoplasmic reticulum stress, iron deposition, and neuroinflammation in neurons...

This study explores the potential mechanisms of obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA) complicates type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) by which chronic intermittent hypoxia (CIH) induces insulin resistance and cell apoptosis in the pancreas through oxidative stress. Four- and eight-week CIH rat models were established, and Tempol (100 mg/kg/d), was used as an oxidative stress inhibitor. This study included five groups: 4-week CIH, 4-week CIH-Tempol, 8-week CIH, 8-week CIH-Tempol and normal control (NC) groups. Fasting blood glucose and insulin levels were measured in the serum...

OBJECTIVE: Obstructive sleep apnea is closely related to oxidative stress. 4-hydroxy-2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidine-1-oxyl (Tempol) can scavenge reactive oxygen species (ROS) and ameliorate oxidative damage in the body. The mechanism by which Tempol alleviates chronic intermittent hypoxia-induced lung injury has rarely been reported. This study aimed to confirm the molecular mechanism by which Tempol alleviates lung injury. METHODS: The levels of miR-212-5p and Sirtuin 6 (SIRT6) in injured lungs were analyzed using bioinformatics...

Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) regulate the progression of type 2 diabetes mellitus complicated with obstructive sleep apnoea (T2DM-OSA). However, the role of the lncRNA nuclear paraspeckle assembly transcript 1 (NEAT1) in T2DM-OSA remains unknown. This study aimed to reveal the function of NEAT1 in T2DM-OSA and the underlying mechanism. KKAy mice were exposed to intermittent hypoxia (IH) or intermittent normoxia to generate a T2DM-OSA mouse model. HMEC-1 cells were treated with high glucose (HG) and IH to construct a T2DM-OSA cell model...

INTRODUCTION: Obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA) is a multisystem, debilitating, chronic disorder of breathing during sleep, resulting in a relatively consistent pattern of cognitive deficits. More recently, it has been argued that those cognitive deficits, especially in middle-aged patients, may be driven by cardiovascular and metabolic comorbidities, rather than by distinct OSA-processes, such as are for example ensuing nocturnal intermittent hypoxaemia, oxidative stress, neuroinflammation, and sleep fragmentation...

Hydroxypropyl methylcellulose (HPMC)-based microparticles and modified starch emulsions (OSA-MS) were loaded with resveratrol and characterized regarding their physicochemical and thermal properties. Both delivery systems were subject to an in vitro gastrointestinal digestion to assess the bioaccessibility of resveratrol. In addition, cell-based studies were conducted after in vitro digestion and cytotoxicity and oxidative stress were assessed. HPMC-based microparticles displayed higher average sizes (d) and lower polydispersity index (PDI) (d = 948 nm, PDI < 0...

Glucocorticoid-induced osteonecrosis of the femoral head (SONFH) is the most prevalent form of secondary osteonecrosis affecting the femoral head. Glucocorticoids can cause damage to both vascular endothelial cells and osteoblasts. Previous studies have demonstrated that silicon can improve the resistance of vascular endothelial cells to oxidative stress and positively impact bone health. However, the impact of silicon on SONFH has yet to be investigated. We examined the influence of ortho-silicic acid (OSA, Si(OH)4) on the apoptosis and proliferation of vascular endothelial cells after glucocorticoid induction...

Obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS) causes recurrent apnea and intermittent hypoxia at night, leading to several complications such as cognitive dysfunction. However, the molecular mechanisms underlying cognitive dysfunction in OSAS are unclear, and oxidative stress mediated by intermittent hypoxia is an important mechanism. In addition, the improvement of cognitive dysfunction in patients with OSAS varies by different treatment regimens; among them, continuous positive airway pressure therapy (CPAP) is mostly recognized for improving cognitive dysfunction...

Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) has long been studied in patients with obesity and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), due to the fact that both disorders are commonly associated with an increased body mass index (BMI). However, a link between OSA and non-obese diabetic patients is still not very elaborated, nor heavily explored. In this review, we elucidate some proposed mechanisms for the link between OSA and diabetic patients both with and beyond obesity, shedding the light on the latter case. One such mechanism is oxidative stress, a phenomenon of reactive oxygen species (ROS) imbalance seen in both of the previously mentioned disorders...

Non-melanoma skin cancer (NMSC) is prevalent in kidney transplant recipients (KTR), related to the immunosuppressive effects of anti-rejection therapy. Sleep disturbances can alter the immune system and enhance oxidative stress, which may increase the risk of carcinogenesis. This study aimed to analyze the quality of life and sleep in KTR with and without NMSC. Participants answered a set of questionnaires, the WHOQOL-bref, the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI), the Epworth Sleepiness Scale (ESS), the Berlin Questionnaire and self-reported chronotype...
