The effects of fenvalerate on hepatic and cerebral xenobiotic metabolizing enzymes in selenium and/or iodine deficient rats
Objective(s): Particularly in developing countries, selenium and/or iodine deficiencies are encountered and use of pesticides in agriculture are not well-controlled. Fenvalerate is a pyrethroid insectide used in agriculture and has applications against a wide range of pests. This study was designed to evaluate the effects of fenvalerate on hepatic and cerebral xenobiotic metabolizing enzyme act...
متن کاملP-90: The Effect of Nitric Oxide on Mouse Oocyte in Vitro Maturation in Two and Three Dimensional Conditions
Background: In vitro culture of ovarian follicles may preserve fertility in women with premature ovarian failure due to cancer .It seems that creation a condition that could maintain cellular communications and supports growth of follicles to produce mature oocytes appear to be essential. Nitric oxide (NO) has been recently shown to act with a dual action in mouse oocyte meiotic maturation depe...
متن کاملPharmaceutical Metabolism in Fish: Using a 3-D Hepatic In Vitro Model to Assess Clearance
At high internal doses, pharmaceuticals have the potential for inducing biological/pharmacological effects in fish. One particular concern for the environment is their potential to bioaccumulate and reach pharmacological levels; the study of these implications for environmental risk assessment has therefore gained increasing attention. To avoid unnecessary testing on animals, in vitro methods f...
متن کاملEvaluation the Effects of Sub-lethal concentrations of Zinc Chloride on hepatic enzymes activity in grey mullet (Mugil Cephalus) in vitro
In the recent years, water pollution by contaminations are increasing rapidly, the problems of aquatic pollution with heavy metals which is one of the important pollutions indicate that necessary to assess in fish as an important source of human food. The aim of this study was investigated the sub-lethal effects of zinc chloride on hepatic enzymes activity in grey mullet (Mugil Cephalus). In th...
متن کاملExpression of Endoderm and Hepatic Specific Genes after in vitro Differentiation of Human Embryonic Stem Cells
Background: Human embryonic stem cells (hESC), which are derived from the inner cell mass of the blastocysts, have been considered to be pluripotent cells. In this study we examine the differentiating potential of hESC into hepatocytes by characterization of the expression of endoderm and liver-specific genes. Methods: hESC were cultivated in suspension to form aggregates, the embryoid bodies. ...
