The objective of the study was to evaluate the cardioprotective activity of flax lignan concentrate (FLC) in isoprenalin (ISO) induced cardiotoxicity in rats. Male Wistar rats (200-230 g) were divided into three groups. Group I: control, Group II: isoprenalin, Group III: FLC (500 mg/kg, p.o.) orally for 8 days and in group II and III isoprenalin 5.25 mg/kg, s.c. on day 9 and 8.5 mg/kg on day 10...

During the last few decades, the use of molecular markers, revealing polymorphism at the DNA level, has been playing an increasing part in plant biotechnology and their genetics studies. There are different types of markers viz. morphological, biochemical and DNA based molecular markers. These DNA based markers are differentiates in two types first non PCR based (RFLP) and second is PCR based m...

Currently there is no recognized biochemical or molecular marker for human parenchymal lung injury analogous to markers for acute myocardial injury. Injury to the alveolar epithelial barrier is of central importance in the pathogenesis of and recovery from acute lung injury. In animal models, an alveolar type I cell-specific protein, RTI(40), has been shown to be an accurate marker of alveolar ...

Abstract The new coronavirus SARS-CoV-2 was identified to be responsible for the COVID-19 pandemic. There are striking differences in response infection, some people develop no or mild symptoms, while other outcomes severe of even fatal. For those patients who require hospitalization, prognostic markers could help clinicians identify with a poor outcome early. serum levels immune activation mar...

objective: to compared serum crp levels and biochemical relation in pcos patients with normal iranian women. materials and methods: this case-control study was performed on 52 individuals with pcos (rotterdam 2003 criteria). the cases were compared to 104 healthy non-pcos, 20 to 35-year-old female subjects with no history of diabetes or renal diseases. blood samples were taken on the 2(nd) to t...

Department of psychiatry and behavior sciences Eastern Virginia Medical School Norfolk Hospitalized patients who are not truthful about their alcohol consumption may be at risk for an unplanned withdrawal. Self-reports of alcohol use—such as CAGE and the Alcohol Use Disorders Identifi cation Test (AUDIT)—are valid, inexpensive, and noninvasive, but patients easily can feign results.1 Biochemica...
