cardiovascular disorders continue to constitute major causes of morbidity and mortality in diabetic patients. in this study, the effect of chronic administration of sesame (sesamum indicum l) seed feeding was studied on aortic reactivity of streptozotocin (stz)-diabetic rats. male diabetic rats received sesame seed-mixed food at weight ratios of 3% and 6% for 7 weeks, one week after diabetes in...

background and objective: cardiovascular disorders continue to constitute major causes of morbidity and mortality in diabetic patients. in this study, the effect of chronic administration of tribulus terrestris (tt) feeding was studied on aortic reactivity of streptozotocin (stz)-diabetic rats and some underlying mechanisms were investigated.    materials and methods: male diabetic rats receive...

introduction: n-methyl-d-aspartate (nmda) receptors play a pivotal role in the development of tolerance and physical dependence to opiates. activation of nmda receptors involves the induction of long term potentiation (ltp) in hippocampus. our previous study suggested that chronic oral administration of morphine enhanced nmda dependent ltp in the ca1 area of hippocampal slices of rats. the pres...

In this paper the antipyretic effect of Hydroalcoholic extract leaves Colocasia esculenta against Brewer yeast induced pyrexia model in Wistar rats either sex was investigated. (Apiaceae) is a tropical perennial plant. It contain flavonoids, alkaloids, apigenin, anthocyanin, carbohydrates, fiber, minerals, protein, fat, calcium and iron, Fever animal (rats) by injection 15%w/v brewer’s suspensi...

Background. Olea europaea leaf extract (OELE) has potential health benefits and protects against cytotoxicity. This study investigated the possible ameliorative effect of OELE on cisplatin-induced nephrotoxicity in rats. Methods. Rats were assigned into six groups; two groups received 150 mg/kg or 300 OELE, one group a single dose cisplatin (6 mg/kg) IP first day experiment, then starting from ...

The effect of Asphervon resin gum on spermatogenesis, the level testosterone in blood rats was studied, and two dosages drug diuresis with an aqueous load also considered. Data have been obtained quantitative change sperm rat ejaculate, ability Asfervon to reduce levels rat’s blood, also, a pronounced dose has revealed - dependent diuretic Asfervon.

objective(s):growing evidence indicates that extract of ginkgo biloba (egb) attenuates hippocampal-dependent memory deficit in aged individuals; however, very little is known about the effect of egb on the structure of hippocampus. therefore we examined the egb-induced morphological changes of the cornu ammonis (ca) region in aged rats. materials and methods: sixteen aged male wistar rats, 24 m...

We have previously shown that chronic, but not acute, dietary supplementation with CDP-choline prevents the hippocampal-dependent memory deficits manifested by aged rats and by rats reared under impoverished environmental conditions. In rats, dietary CDP-choline is rapidly metabolized into cytidine and choline; the cytidine is then readily converted to uridine, which enters the brain and, via c...

Introduction: Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is still a major health problem in the world. It might cause long-term disability that affect socio-economic life and become nation burden. Post-traumatic cerebral edema develop commit to an unfavorable prognosis. Aquaporin 4 (AQP4) water channel protein key regulator of metabolism brain. Although mechanism AQP4 regulation post-traumatic remains contro...

Background: Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is an endocrine disorder that often occurs in women of reproductive age. The main therapy currently used to treat PCOS patients insulin sensitizer. In PCOS, there imbalance the intestinal flora which causes activation immune system and inflammatory response leads resistance. effect probiotic supplementation on resistance can have impact changes hormo...
