This study aimed to investigate the effects of sumac (Rhus coriaria L.) fruit powder in different concentrations as feed additives on non-specific immune response, hematology, and disease resistance rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss). Fish (35.67±0.88 g) were fed with experimental diets (1.0, 3.0, 5.0 10.0 g kg-1) at four concentration. There no significant differences between groups control g...

widely known to possess potent anti-infl ammatory properties by reducing the production of pro-infl ammatory cytokine production, or stimulating the production of anti-infl ammatory cytokines, including interleukin-10 (Otterbein et al., 2003; Paine et al., 2010). Additionally, HO-1 over-expression protects against cytotoxicity induced by NO (Son et al., 2005). HO-1 expression is induced by bind...

BACKGROUND Toxidendron (poison ivy, oak, and sumac) contact dermatitis is a common complaint in the outpatient primary care setting with little evidence-based guidance on best treatment duration. METHODS This randomized, controlled trial examined the efficacy and side effects of a 5-day regimen of 40 mg oral prednisone daily (short course) compared to the same 5-day regimen followed by a pred...

We have demonstrated that polyphenol-rich sorghum bran diets alter fecal microbiota; however, little is known regarding their effect on colon inflammation. Our aim was to characterize the effect of sorghum bran diets on intestinal homeostasis during dextran sodium sulfate (DSS)-induced colitis. Male Sprague-Dawley rats (N = 20/diet) were provided diets containing 6% fiber from cellulose, or Bla...

In this study, sumac plant (Rhus coriaria L.) naturally grown in Tunceli (Türkiye) was collected from 5 different provinces and investigated for their phytochemical properties. samples, pH, color, ash amount, total phenolic content (TPC), 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) free radical scavenging capacity, metal chelating copper (II) ion reducing antioxidant capacity (CUPRAC), power, mineral ...
