Effect of free radicals on microvascular dimensions was studied in anesthetized cat intestinal mesentery. Generation of free radicals by xanthine oxidase, acting on endogenous substrates (e.g., xanthine, hypoxanthine), produced sustained vasodilation at pH 7.4 or at pH 6.6. These effects were reversed by superoxide dismutase (SOD), a superoxide radical (.O2-) scavenger, at pH 7.4, and by SOD pl...

The aim of the study was to evaluate the antioxidant and free radical scavenging properties and to determine the phenolic content of the ethanol extract from five Mentha species [M. longifolia (L.) Huds., M. piperita L., M. pulegium L., M. rotundifolia (L.) Huds., and M. spicata L.]. The antioxidant activities of the extracts were investigated with two different methods, 2,2’-diphenyl-1-picrylh...

objective: previous studies showed that grape seed extract (gse) is an excellent natural substance with potent antioxidant effect and free radical scavenger. this study aimed to evaluate the effect of gse on motor dysfunctions and thalamic local electroencephalography (eeg) frequency bands' powers in rats with parkinson's disease (pd). materials and methods: in this study 8 µg 6-hydro...

The aim of the present study was to evaluate the effect of troxerutin (TXN) on Nickel (Ni) toxicity by using rats and in vitro model. Ni toxicity induced in male albino wistar rats (20 mg/kg body weight (b.w) was administered orally for 20 days). TXN was administered orally (100 mg/kg (b.w) for 20 days with administration of Ni. The toxic effect of Ni and the action of TXN was measure by determ...
