a b s t r a c t introduction: aloe vera extract is used as an anti-inflammatory and anti-bradikinin agent in laboratory animals. the aim of this survey was to evaluate the ant-nociceptive effect of a. vera aqueous extract in fructose-fed male rats. methods: forty-five wistar-albino male rats were equally and randomly divided into five groups including sham operated and four test groups. sham op...

it has been shown that enhanced acid secretion can be suppressed in the rat by systemic administration of glucose. we have recently reported that enhancement of acid secretion as a result of pentagastrin was diminished by intragastric administration of d-glucose. present study was designed to investigate whether intragastric d-glucose influences gastric acid secretion associated with carbachol ...

hyperglycemia and gestational diabetes mellitus are complications of pregnancy. both mothers and newborns are typically at increased risk for complications. this study sought to determine effect of zinc supplementation on serum glucose levels, insulin resistance, energy and macronutrients intakes in pregnant women with impaired glucose tolerance.in this clinical trial 44 pregnant women with imp...

background: nigella sativa (n. sativa) seeds are used to treat diabetes mellitus in traditional medicine. moreover, n. sativa oil has reduced the fasting blood glucose level in non-diabetic volunteers. objective: the present study was undertaken to explore the possible anti-hyperglycemic effect of n. sativa oil in type ii diabetic patients. methods: a randomized clinical trial was conducted in ...

background: in 2-4% of couples in fertile ages, recurrent pregnancy loss (rpl) occurs which consisted one out of 300 pregnancies. the aim of this study was to comparison insulin resistance (ir) in patients with rpl to normal individuals. materials and methods: in a case-controlled, prospective study, 49 non-pregnant, non-diabetic women with early rpl as the case group and 49 non-pregnant, non-d...

direct electron transferring of glucose oxidase was investigated   on reduced graphene and graphene oxide templates. the direct electrochemistry   glucose oxidase on   graphene showed a cyclic voltammograms corresponding to the fad/fadh 2   redox couple with an anodic, cathodic and formal potential of -430, -460 and   -445 mv, respectively in 0.1 m phosphate buffer solution and air saturated   ...

some kinetic properties of nad+- and nadp+- dependent glucose 6-phosphatedehydrogenase (g6pd) purified from streptomyces aureofaciens were studied. both nadh andnadph inhibited the enzyme competitively and noncompetitively, with respect to the correspondingcoenzymes and glucose 6-phosphate, respectively. atp inhibited the nad+ - linked reaction but not thatof the nadp+- linked activity. the inh...

evaluation of the blood and milk biochemical parameters always is considered as effective key factor for animal health and dairy products. in order to assess the association of kappa-casein (k-cn) genetic variants with blood biochemical indicators, blood samples were randomly and individually collected from 126 iranian guilan native cattle. blood plasma was used to measure blood glucose, urea, ...

background: excess serum uric acid (ua) accumulation can lead to various diseases. increasing evidences reveal that ua may have a key role in the pathogenesis of metabolic syndrome. little is known about the associations of ua levels with cardiometabolic risk factors in prediabetic individuals. this study was designed to evaluate the association between ua and cardiometabolic risk factors in pr...

introduction: aim of present research was to review the effect of resistance training on glycemic indexes of streptozotocin induced diabetic rats. methods: for this purpose 36 male rats with weight 308/82±29/57 selected. one week after induction of diabetes diabetic rats were randomly divided into two groups including resistance training and control and healthy rats divided in to two groups inc...
