The high rate of glycolysis in cancerous tissues, first described by Con in vivo (6) and by Warburg in vitro (@2),suggests that a considerable part of the energy supply for the neoplastic process is derived from the “anaerobic―phase of carbo hydrate catabolism. The low glycogen content characterizing a number of tumors (8—11, 13, I 7) may also indicate that the substrate for this process ...

Agonistic behavior of rats of the Wistar and WEzob strain was compared. Two male rats of the same strain or two male-female pairs of the same strain were confronted with each other for a period of one hour. Individuals and pairs were unknown to each other. In the week before the pairs or the single males were placed in the two compartments of a box. By removing a separating panel, encounters co...

Qualitative and quantitative differences of purified hepatic 3 alpha-hydroxysteroid UDP-glucuronosyltransferase were investigated in Wistar and Sprague-Dawley rats. Individual differences in the glucuronidation rate of androsterone and chenodeoxycholic acid were observed in hepatic microsomal fractions from Wistar but not Sprague-Dawley rats. No individual variation was observed in the glucuron...

The amount of DNA per nucleus in the adrenal medulla cells of four different strains of rats (Wistar, Sprague-Dawley, Long-Evans, and Italico) is determined both under control conditions and after 300 hr of intermittent exposure to cold. The adrenal medulla nuclei of the four strains of rats contain the same amount of DNA; however, the loss of DNA observed after the same experimental treatment ...

Background: Diabetes mellitus type 2 with dyslipidemia is a common disease. Previous studies suggest that chemical constituent present in pinus eldarica (P. eldarica) nut posesess antioxidant properties and positively affect glucose metabolism. However blood glucose and cholesterol lowering effects of P. eldarica nut have not been studied so far. Objective: The present study was undertaken to...

AIM The present study was undertaken to study the pathology and control of sudden unexplained mortality in wistar rats. MATERIALS AND METHODS This study was conducted in a colony of 25 male wistar rats where there was mortality of nine rats. The dead rats were subjected to thorough post-mortem examination and necropsy samples were processed for hematoxylin and eosin staining for histopatholog...

The effect of aged garlic extract on different biochemical parameters was studied. study included 72 Wistar albino rats, divided 12 in each group into six groups. Group I served as normal control group. To II high fat diet given control. Rats the III were administered at 200mg/kg bw. IV rats 200mg/kg.bw with diet. V atorvastatin 15mg/kg.bw VI and half dose (100mg 7.5mg/kg respectively) duration...
