In this study, the hepatoprotective effect of the methanol extract of aerial parts (shoot) from Otostegia persica Boiss (Golder) was investigated against the carbon tetrachloride (CCl4)-induced acute hepatotoxicity in male rats. Liver damage was induced through the oral administration of 50% CCl4 in liquid paraffin (2.5 mL/Kg bw, per os) 60 min after the administration of the methanol extract o...

The present study evaluated the impacts of powdered Astragalus membranaceus extract (AME) on growth, physiological responses, and serum immunity Pangasianodon hypophthalmus juveniles. Four test diets were formulated to include varying AME levels as 0.0 (control), 1.5 (AME1.5), 3.0 (AME3.0), 4.5 (AME4.5) g/kg. Fish weighing approximately 11.50 g stocked into four triplicate groups hand-fed three...

An enzyme which synthesizes S-adenosylmethionine in mouse liver has been examined and found to possess the same charac teristics as that described by others for pig and rabbit liver. Al though liver has laige quantities of the enzyme activity, a mouse hej tatoma had no measurable activity. It was hypothesized that trace amounts of the enzyme in hepatoma cells might be sufficient for sRNA methyl...
