Objective: The effect of herbal medicine is more useful than synthetic medicines. The present research paper aims to show the effects of leaves extracts of Zizyphus Spina Christi (ZSC) on lipid profile, lipid peroxidation and activities of aminotransferase enzymes in streptozocin induced diabetic adult male rats. Materials and Methods: Fifty six male rats weighing 150-200 gm were included in t...

Serum enzymes that play potential roles in tumor growth have recently been reported to have prognostic relevance in a diverse array of tumors. However, prognosis-related serum enzymes are rarely reported for nasopharyngeal carcinoma(NPC). To clarify whether the level of serum enzymes is linked to the prognosis of NPC, we reviewed the pretreatment data of lactate dehydrogenase(LDH), alkaline pho...

The mechanisms underlying increases in the activity of various enzymes in the serum or plasma are, in general, incompletely understood. It has been stated that the plasma enzymes are derived from cellular elements either in the tissue or in the blood and that the level of circulating enzymes is therefore an index of the rate of disintegration of such cells (8). On the other hand, in some instan...

ABSTRACT: Patients with acute renal failure often have a negative energy balance, which promotes metabolic changes predisposing to complications. The objective of this study was evaluate laboratory parameters 30 dogs severe failure, assess their relationship the possibility developing pancreatitis due and correlate these findings degree failure. Serum concentrations urea, creatinine, beta-hydro...

The stability of transaminase enzymes in the filter paper matrix, at different temperatures for different lengths of time is of considerable importance. A method for extraction and estimation of theses enzymes from serum spotted on filter paper (whatman no.3) has been developed. The enzymes were efficiently extracted and measured from dried serum spots. For estimation, a commercially available ...

Biochemical analysis of serum enzymes (SGPT, SGOT, LDH) and serum electrolytes (Na, K, Ca and Mg) were recorded. A total of 50 serum samples from cases of pregnant and aborted women were collected at random. On the basis of serological examination of serum samples, Toxoplasma gondii positive at 1/16 dilution (Group A), T. gondii positive at 1/256 dilution (Group B) and T. gondii negative (Group...

Objective(s): The objectives of the current study were to evaluate the effects of hepatic ‎ischemia/reperfusion (IR) injury on the activity of antioxidant enzymes, biochemical factors, and ‎histopathological changes in rat kidney, and to investigate the effect of crocin on IR-‎related changes. Materials and Methods: Thirty-two male Wistar rats were randomly allocated into four groups (n=8). The...
