Objective: Dietary changes playmajor risk roles in oxidative stress andcardiovascular disease and modulate normal metabolic function. The present study was designed to investigate the ameliorative potential of different extracts of Hemidesmus indicus to experimental high-fat diet in wistar rats, and their possible mechanism of action.  Materials and Methods: Male wistar rats were divided into 6...

In the present study, salep and chitosan hydrocolloid were used as stabilizers and fat replacer in low-fat mayonnaise and rheological and physicochemical characteristics were evaluated. Fat has been substituted with 0.1, 0.2 and 0.3% chitosan and 6.4, 0.0, 0.7, 1.0 and 1.3% salep. High-fat mayonnaise sample or control with 67% fat and without salep and chitosan(FF),  mayonnaise with 67% fat and...

conclusions saturated fatty acids (sfas) served as a potential ligand for tlr4 and activated tlr4 signaling pathway, which might be involved in the pathogenesis. thus, sfas can accelerate the mechanism of inhibiting hbv replication in chb with nafld. objectives this study aimed to investigate whether the tlr4-mediated innate immunity stimulates the pathogenesis of chb in patients with nafld and...

background: prescription of antioxidants might increase the quality of sperm parameters and improve the rate of pregnancy in obese people who suffer from infertility. therefore, the present study investigated protective effects of vitamin a, e and astaxanthin on sperm parameters and seminiferous tubules epithelium in high-fat diet model. methods: thirty-six numbers of 3 months old albino wistar...
