this study was designed to explore the protective effects of abrus precatorius l. (leguminosae) (ap) in hepg2 cells and n-nitrosodiethylamine (ndea) induced hepatocellular carcinoma in swiss albino rats. the effects of aqueous/ethanolic (50%) extract of ap on hepatic markers, haematological and histopathological parameters, and antioxidant enzymes were evaluated in ndea (200 mg/kg and ccl4, 3 m...

با توجه به رشد بالای جمعیت در جهان و نیاز اطمینان از امنیت غذایی، افزایش تولید واحد سطح محصولات زراعی به‌منزلة راهبردی اساسی حل مسئلة تأمین غذا به‌شمار می‌رود. سوی دیگر، وجود محدودیت زیرکشت پایین‌بودن میانگین عملکرد برخی کشاورزی مانند گندم کشور، محصول می‌تواند راهکاری عملی پاسخ کشور محسوب شود. یکی مهم‌ترین بیماری‌های فوزاریوم است که، نقش پیش‌بینی این بیماری جلوگیری کاهش بهره‌وری محصول، مدل‌هایی...

introdouction: the high prevalence of apical periodontitis (ap) of endodontic origin raises an important public health problem. root canal treatment (rct) and crown restoration (cr) have an effect on its prevalence. this cross-sectional study was performed to assess the effect of rct and cr on the prevalence of ap. materials and methods: two observers assessed 608 teeth with rct belonging to pa...

Background: In diagnostic radiology there are two reasons for measuring or estimating radiation doses to patients. Firstly measurements provide a means for setting and checking standards of good practice as an aid to the optimization of patient protection. Secondly estimates of the absorbed dose to tissue and organs in the patients. Materials and Methods: A total of 2382 patients were studied t...

Introduction: Glioblastoma is an aggressive malignancy of human brain with poorly understood pathogenesis. Voltage-gated potassium (Kv) channels and Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) are highly expressed in malignant tumors and involved in the progression and metastasis of glioblastoma. The purpose of this study was to determine whether a voltage-dependent potassium channel blocker could modulat...

in this research, cuo spherical-like nanoparticles were synthesized using the planetary ball mill method. the structure, particle size and morphology of the resulting cuo nanoparticles were characterized by xrd (x-ray diffraction), sem (scanning electron microscopy) and saxs (small-angle x-ray scattering) methods. the results of this investigation showed that the smallest particles which were o...
