[ 1 ] - Protective effect of vitamin E on cypermethrin-induced follicular atresia in rats ovary: Evidence for energy dependent mechanism

It has been shown that chronic exposure to cypermethrin (CPM), a pyrethroid pesticide, results in follicular atresia via pathologically affecting angiogenesis, disrupting endocrine potential and enhancing oxidative stress. This study was aimed to uncover the CPM-exposed energy dependent follicular cells apoptosis and to estimate protective effect of vitamin E (VitE) as a potent antioxidant. Thi...

[ 2 ] - Evaluation of anticonvulsant effect of aqueous and methanolic extracts of seven Inula species

In Iranian traditional medicine, plants belonging to Inula genus have been used for the treatment of seizure.
