Background and Objectives: Bisphenol-A (BPA) is a substance used in epoxy resin monomers and polycarbonate plastics. This research focuses on the effect of Bisphenol A on histology alterations in prefrontal cortex (PFC) of rats. Materials and Methods: Thirty male rats were divided into 3 groups: A control group, a placebo group received distilled water intra peritoneal and the experiment group...

Neurodegenerative diseases are the hereditary and sporadic diseases which are characterized by progressive neuronal loss of the nervous system and are emerging as the leading cause of death, disabilities, and a socioeconomic burden due to an increase in life expectancy. There are many neurodegenerative diseases including Alzheimer’s disease, Parkinson’s, disease, amyotrophic lateral...

Abstract Background & Aims: Cell therapy is among the novel therapeutic methods effective in the treatment of spinal cord injuries. The aim of the present study was using neural stem cells (NSCs) in treating contusion spinal cord injury in rat model. Methods: Bone marrow stromal cells (BMSCs) were isolated from adult rats...

spinal cord injury (sci) is a devastating condition, with sudden loss of sensory, motor, and autonomic function distal to the level of trauma. the primary mechanical trauma causes necrosis, edema, hemorrhage, and vasospasm. a cascade of secondary pathophysiological mechanisms is induced, including ischemia, apoptosis, fluid and electrolyte disturbances, excitotoxicity, lipid peroxidation, produ...

the present article investigates the application of high order tsk (takagi sugeno kang) fuzzy systems in modeling photo voltaic (pv) cell characteristics. a method has been introduced for training second order tsk fuzzy systems using anfis (artificial neural fuzzy inference system) training method. it is clear that higher order tsk fuzzy systems are more precise approximators while they cover n...
