background & aim: electromagnetic waves can damage sex organs and cause hormonal disorders, whereas garlic is known as reducing risk factors for various diseases. the aim of this study was to investigate the probable effects of mobile phone radiation and consumption of garlic on estrogen and progesterone levels and ovarian changes. experimental: five groups of rats (n = 8) were used which g...

objective: although much is known about estrogen and progesterone, their toxicity or protective effects on hepatocytes are yet to be fully understood. this study investigated the probable oxidant or antioxidant effects of estrogen and progesterone on hepg2 cell line in the presence or absence of h2o2. methods: hepg2 cells were cultured with two concentrations of estrogen and progesterone (10pm ...

estrogen replacement therapy (ert) in postmenopausal women may decrease the risk of coronary artery diseases (cad). we hypothesized that nitric oxide (no) releasing due to ert may be the essential factor by which endothelial permeability decreases. four groups of ovariectomized rabbits were under investigation for five weeks. groups 1 & 4 received high cholesterol diet and other two groups (2 &...

objectives we undertook this study to compare the results of hormone receptor assessment in cnb and surgical samples on our patients. patients and methods hormone receptor status was determined in cnb and surgical samples in breast cancer patients whose cnb and operation had been performed in this institute from 2009 to 2011 and had not undergone neoadjuvant chemotherapy. results about 350 pati...

Phytoestrogens are polyphenolic non-steroidal plant compounds with estrogen like activity exerted through estrogen receptors. These receptors are distributed in several tissues such as male and female reproductive systems, bones, cardiovascular and central nervous systems. These natural phenolic compounds include isoflavonoids, flavonoids, lignans and stilbenes. Isoflavonoids are the most studi...

The concept of a 'good life' recognises the distinction that an animal's quality of life is beyond that of a 'life worth living', representing a standard of welfare substantially higher than the legal minimum (FAWC, 2009). We propose that the opportunities required for a 'good life' could be used to structure resource tiers that lead to positive welfare and are compatible with higher welfare fa...

Background & Aims: The prevalence, incidence, and complications of heart disease increase with age. Green tea is an antioxidant which can prevent cellular senescence and cardiovascular diseases. Telomerase enzyme decreases with aging. Acute exhaustive exercise results in disturbances in the oxidative system and production of active oxygen species in the heart tissue. Thus, the present study aim...
