conclusions the present data confirmed systemic and topical anti-inflammatory effects of stachys pilifera which is comparable to indomethacin. results acute toxicity study of the extract showed that no rats were killed at 5000 mg/kg (ld50 > 5000 mg/kg). the extract (100 and 200  mg/ kg) significantly suppressed carrageenan-induced paw edema 1, 2, 3, and 4  hours after carrageenan challenge in c...

objective: parkinson's disease (pd) is one of the most common neurodegenerative disorders which is characterized by tremor, rigidity, bradykinesia and postural disturbances. studies indicate that grape juice and exercise may have beneficial effects on neurodegenerative disorders. therefore, in the present study, we evaluated the effects of red grape juice (gj) together with treadmill runni...

background: vestibular schwannoma (vs) is one of the skull base tumors originating from vestibular portion of eighth cranial nerve. recently, 2μ- thulium laser is used in the surgery of some intracranial tumors. objectives: assessing the efficacy of 2μ-thulium flexible hand-held laser fiber (revolixjrò) in microsurgical removal of vs. materials and methods: this retrospective non-randomized stu...

introduction: caveolin-1 (cav-1) is a scaffolding protein found in special structures of plasma membrane, known as caveolae. cav-1 can regulate many intracellular processes, including signal transmission and cholesterol metabolism. this protein plays an important role in the growth and differentiation of breast tissue and acts as a tumor suppressor gene as well. the aim of this study was to det...

normal 0 false false false en-us x-none ar-sa microsoftinternetexplorer4 the radicular groove is a developmental anomaly that predisposes the tooth to periodontal break-down. sometimes the situation becomes more complicated by pulp necrosis and development of a combined endodontic-periodontal lesion which is a diagnostic and treatment challenge for the clinician. this report presents the succes...

the nmr spectra of azo dyes, 5-arylazobarbituric (5a-g), 5-arylazo-1,3-dimethylbarbituric(6a-g) and 5-arylazothiobarbituric acids (7a-g) were studied in dmso-d6 in differentconcentrations. an intramolecular hydrogen bond was observed and indicating that thehydrazone forms is mostly predominant. the peak of the hydrazone proton was severelybroadened and its chemical shift appeared at down field ...

objective(s): this study aims to determine the effects of ozone therapy on restoring impaired nrf2 activation to ameliorate chronic tubulointerstitial injury in rats with adenine-induced ckd. materials and methods: sprague–dawley rats were fed with 0.75% adenine-containing diet to induce ckd and chronic tubulointerstitial injury. ozone therapy was administered by rectal insufflation. after 4 we...

abstract introduction: the mineral content of dentin increases with age and its primary structure is altered. these changes may have unknown effects on efficiency of adhesive systems. the aim of this study was to find the effect of aging on dentin bonding agents. methods and materials: fourty eight extracted human premolars were divided into 2 groups under 15 years old & 2 groups over 45 years ...

in this study, magnetic nanoparticles (γ-fe2o3) were used for the degradation of 2-chlorophenol (cp) from wastewater. the size of these magnetic nanoparticles was measured using xrd and found to be about
