Objective(s): Ulcerative colitis (UC) is a kind of complex immune disease, and a major cause of destruction of intestinal barrier and oxidative stress in this field. In this paper, glutamine (Gln) was believed to offer protection against oxidative stress injury in colitis mice.Materials and Methods: Thirty mice were randomly assigned int...

Drought stress is one of the most important factors limiting the survival and growth of plants in the different habitats of Iran. Detailed knowledge about the ecophysiological responses of native plants to drought stress could contribute to the success of breeding and re-vegetation programs. Six wild populations of Anthemis tinctoria, were assigned to four drought treatments, i.e. well...

The aim of this study was to identify the effect of Spermine and Salicylic acid on several growth parameters, such as shoot length, shoot fresh and dry weights, amount of protein and carbohydrate, of Badami and Qazvini pistachio cultivated variety under copper stress. The experiment design was completely randomized with three replicates per treatment and four levels of copper (o.5, 30, 45, 60 µ...

Free radicals are normally produced by living organism, at controlled production rate they perform physiological functions as signal transduction molecules. However, situations leading to an overproduction that surpasses antioxidant capacity creates oxidative stress. Consequently, damage to the cell membrane, protein, DNA and cell death are observed. Dairy cattle are susceptible to oxidative st...

cirrhosis is the consequence of chronic liver disease. deleterious effects of oxidative stress on hepatocytes may be reflected in the erythrocyte membrane. naltrexone (ntx) has been shown to attenuate hepatocellular injury in fibrotic animal models. the aim of this study was to investigate the progressive effect of ccl 4 on the liver and whether the improvement of liver cirrhosis can be monitor...

Abstract Background As a biennial plant, Secale cereale L is usually harvested in the autumn northern part of China where temperature difference between day and night great disparity Through pot experiment, seedlings were cut to 2, 6 10 cm stubble height, simulated freeze-thaw (FT) stress (10/− 5 °C) was carried out after days regrowth. The physiological effects FT with different height reveale...

Drought is the most common environmental stress in vineyard occurs in soils with low water content, even in irrigation condition. To evaluate foliar spraying of ascorbic acid under drought stress, a research during 2012 to 2013 years in the natural environment, and one year after the establishment of the cuttings in clay loam soil was conducted. Cultivars with two-level white seedless and khosh...
