DNA Alkylating Agent Protects Against Spontaneous Hepatocellular Carcinoma Regardless of O6-Methylguanine-DNA Methyltransferase Status.
Hepatocellular carcinoma is increasingly important in the United States as the incidence rate rose over the last 30 years. C3HeB/FeJ mice serve as a unique model to study hepatocellular carcinoma tumorigenesis because they mimic human hepatocellular carcinoma with delayed onset, male gender bias, approximately 50% incidence, and susceptibility to tumorigenesis is mediated through multiple genet...
متن کاملAreca nut extract protects against ovariectomy-induced osteoporosis in mice
Estrogen deficiency increases the generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS), which is a crucial pathogenic factor for osteoporosis. Areca nuts are rich in phenolics, which have high antioxidant activity. In the present study, an ovariectomy (OVX)-induced osteoporosis mouse model was used to investigate the protective effects of areca nut extract (ANE) on bone loss and related processes. A tot...
متن کاملProtective role of Hibiscus sabdariffa calyx extract against streptozotocin induced sperm damage in diabetic rats
Diabetes mellitus contributes to male sexual dysfunction and infertility by modulating oxidative damage. To date, a number of studies have demonstrated antioxidant properties of Hibiscus sabdariffa Linn. This study was designed to investigate the effects of H. sabdariffa UKMR-2 variety on sperm functioning of streptozotocin-induced diabetic rats. Male Sprague-Dawley rats were allotted into four...
متن کاملRoyal jelly protects male mice against nicotine-induced reproductive failure
This study evaluated the possible protective effect of royal jelly (RJ) on sperm parameters and sperm malondialdehyde (MDA) concentration and in vitro fertilizing potential in nicotine (NIC) exposed male mice. Thrtiy-six male BALB/c mice were randomly divided into six groups (n = 6). Group 1 received normal saline, group 2 received 100 mg kg-1 per day RJ, groups 3 and 4 rece...
متن کاملProtective Effect of Hibiscus Polyphenol-rich Extract against H2o2 Induced Oxidative Damage of Human Erythrocytes
In the present study, Hibiscus rosasinensis polyphenol-rich extract (HPE) was isolated from the flowers and evaluated for its protective effect against hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) induced oxidation in normal human erythrocytes. RBCs pretreated with different concentrations of HPE extract showed the same hemolysis as that of control samples, demonstrating that the tested HPE extract did not have a ...
