6- mercaptopurine (6-mp) is widely used in clinic as an immunosuppressive for treatment of acute lymphocytic leukemia, crohn's disease, and ulcerative colitis with documented unpredictable hepatotoxicity. the potential molecular cytotoxic mechanisms of 6-mp against isolated rat hepatocytes were searched in this study using “accelerated cytotoxicity mechanism screening (acms)” techniques. t...

Objective(s): Hyperuricemia is a risk for cardiovascular and metabolic diseases, but the mechanism is ambiguous. Increased intestinal permeability is correlated with metabolic syndrome risk factors. Intestinal epithelial cells play a pivotal role in maintaining intestinal permeability. Uric acid is directly eliminated into intestinal lumen, however, the mechanism and e...

introduction: recent studies have shown the presence of cl- channels in heart and liver mitochondrial membranes. in this work, we have characterized the functional profile of a cl- channel from rat brain mitochondria. methods: after removing and homogenizing the rat brain, the supernatant was separately centrifuged in msedigitonin, h2o and na2co3 and mitochondrial inner membrane vesicles were o...

Dacarbazine is an antitumor prodrug which is used for the treatment of malignant metastatic melanoma and Hodgkin’s disease. It requires initial activation in liver through an N-demethylationreaction. The active metabolite prevents the progress of disease via alkylation of guanine bases in DNA strands. In order to investigate the importance of imidazole ring and its dynamictautomerization in ant...

Industrial wastewater is of global concern due to its severe effects on the environment. Compared with municipal wastewater, industrial wastewater generally contains the high concentration of toxic or no biodegradable pollutants. In recently year, scientific showed that scallop could filtration wastewater. Therefore, it was decided to determine the mechanistic toxicity of wastewater contained N...

In this research, we investigated the cytotoxic mechanisms of Cochlodinium polykrikoidescell lysate on isolated rat liver hepatocytes.This micro algae is responsible for a severe and widespread harmful algal bloom in the Persian Gulf and Gulf of Oman (2008-2009). Isolated hepatocytes were obtained by collagenase perfusion of Sprague-Dawley rat liver.According to our results, incubation of algal...

arsenic exposure mainly through food and water has been shown to be associated with increased incidence of numerous cancers and non-cancer harmful health. it is also used in cancer chemotherapy and treatment of several cancer types due to its apoptogenic effects in the various cancer and normal cell lines. we have already reported that liver is the storage site and important target organ in as ...
