TL;DR: Data from the hCOMET project confirm that DNA damage measured by the comet assay is an excellent biomarker of exposure in several conditions, and may contribute to improving the quality of study design and to the standardization of results of the Comet assay in human populations.

TL;DR: It is found that women in perimenopause are under increased oxidative stress manifested by reduced PON1 A activity and elevated lipoperoxidation, DNA repair ability, and TAS and nutritional antioxidant supplementation may be an effective approach in improving menopausal symptoms.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors conducted a pilot study focusing on the relationship between OS of Crohn's disease in remission and the possibility to influence clinical parameters and markers of oxidative stress by polyphenolic extract, Pycnogenol® (Pyc), and found negative correlations between markers of inflammation (calprotectin, CRP) as well as between PCDAI and total antioxidant capacity.

TL;DR: It has been proved that FC represents a surrogate marker of neutrophils influx into the bowel lumen; hence it can be regarded as a simple and non-invasive marker of intestinal inflammation.
