[ 1 ] - Paraoxonase and Arylesterase Activities in Patients with Cancer

Background: Cancer has the highest disease-related mortality rate in Iran. Reduced activity of paraoxonase reported in patients with cancer may be due to a reduction in its antioxidant properties and a subsequent increased risk of developing cancer. We aimed to assess antioxidant and oxidative status in patients with cancer through measuring the activity of PON1 as an antioxidant enzyme and det...

[ 2 ] - Evaluation the protective effects of doxycycline on acetaminophen-induced hepatotoxicity in mice

Acetaminophen (APAP) toxicity threatens human health due to increased mortality associated with its overdose. Doxycycline (DC) because of its properties such as antioxidant and anti-inflammatory can be a good therapeutic strategy to treat the acute toxicity induced by APAP. Male mice were divided to six groups in two periods of 3 and 24-h as normal saline, APAP 400 mg/kg, DC 100 mg/kg and group...

[ 4 ] - Investigating the Safety of Bee Pollen on Performance, Oxidative Stress and Histopathological Changes in the Liver, Kidney and Pancreas of Rats

Objective: The therapeutic effects of bee pollen have been proven in various studies, but toxicity studies in this field are limited. Therefore, in this study the possible toxicity effects of hydroalcoholic extract of flower pollen on liver, kidney and pancreatic tissues of male rats was investigated. Methods: Fourteen male rats were divided into two groups of seven: the first group received 8...
