The aim of this study was to evaluate the therapeutic and toxicologic effects of the administration of the powered vegetable extract and aqueous extract of Tournefortia paniculata leaves on Wistar rats, subjected to a hypercaloric diet for 42 days. The rats were divided into five groups and were given the following treatments by gavage: T0 (control) – 1.0 mL water day -1 ; T1 aqueous extract co...

One of the important areas modern science is conservation biodiversity, including plant diversity, which occurs through introduction. Among introducers are species genus Amaranthus L., promising for use in many sectors economy. Species well known crop production, and fodder becoming more widespread as food, medicinal, technical plants. Due to high productive potential sagebrush plants multifunc...

Aqueous extract of Andrographis paniculata was examined for antioxidant activity using rat liver subcellular organelles as model systems. The study deals with two important biological oxidative agents, ascorbate-Fe(+2) and AAPH generating hydroxyl and peroxyl radical, respectively. Oxidative damage was examined against the inhibition of membrane peroxidation, protein oxidation and restoration i...

A characteristic feature of animals and particularly of humans is the ability to alter their behaviour on the basis of experience or learning. Learning is an acquisition and storage of information as a consequence of experience. Memory is a relatively permanent storage form of the learned information [1]. The hippocampus and amygdala are two important regions involved in learning and memory. In...

Spatial generalized linear mixed models (SGLMMs) are popular models for spatial data with a non-Gaussian response. Binomial SGLMMs with logit or probit link functions are often used to model spatially dependent binomial random variables. It is known that for independent binomial data, the robit regression model provides a more robust (against extreme observations) alternative to the more popula...

Celastrus orbiculatus is a traditional medicinal plant used in the anti-inflammatory and analgesic treatment of various diseases. A previous study demonstrated that ethyl acetate extract of C. orbiculatus (COE) exhibited significant antitumor effects. However, studies concerning the effects and mechanism of COE in terms of suppressing the epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) in human gastric...
