Study was undertaken to investigate the various oxidative stress markers and biochemical parameters in anxious rat. Rats were subjected for short (21 days) and long term (up to 84 days) social isolation; the rats displayed an increase in anxiety on elevated plus maze and open field test relative to control. Various markers of oxidative stress like lipid peroxidation (LPO), reduced glutathione (...

Among 82 patients with brucellosis, physical and/or biochemical abnormalities suggesting liver disease were found in 40 cases. A soft and tender liver enlargement was present in 65 % of them, and the spleen was palpable in 52%. The most frequent biochemical abnormalities were a slight increase of serum transaminases and alkaline phosphatase. Liver biopsy showed a non-specific reactive hepatitis...

Stress is an aversive stimulus which disturbs physiological homeostasis and is reflected on a variety of biological systems. The present study was designed to investigate the nitric oxide mechanism in neuroprotective effect of trazodone and citalopram against acute immobilization-induced behavioral and biochemical alteration in mice. Mice were immobilized for a 6 h. Acute immobilization stress ...

The study included 125 clinically healthy pupils (group 1) and 125 clinical cases of dermatophytosis (group 2).The influence of dermatophytosis on some biochemical profiles and the haematological parameters was investigated using standard methods. No significant difference occur in the mean PCV, Total WBC, neutrophils, lymphocytes, platelets counts, and RBS level (P>0.05) but the ESR, Eosinophi...

Nickel and mercury are naturally occurring, highly toxic environmental pollutant. The goal of the present study was investigate the effects of nickel and mercury exposure on the biochemical contents of the muscles tissues of fish Lates calcarifer by using Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy. FT-IR spectra reveal significant differences in absorbance intensities between the control. ...
