background: silymarin is a flavonolignan that has been the subject of research to evaluate the beneficial properties for decades. silymarin has been known for its potent cytoprotective, hepatoprotective and antioxidant activities. the goal of the present study was to gain a deeper understanding of possible molecular mechanisms of apoptosis of the injuries induced by silymarin on balb/c mice fet...

objectives: toxoplasma gondii is a coccidian protozoon which forms tissue cyst in different organs of infected intermediate host. the present study was conducted to demonstrate the active form of parasite in different tissues of rat, which was experimentally infected with rh strain of toxoplasma gondii using bioassay method inmice. materials & methods: in the experimental assay, 75 rats an...

One of the most fundamental characteristics of texts consists in the coherence among its sentences. We investigated by fMRI where in the brain such coherence relations are established and the relative duration of these processes by a behavioral experiment. In four experimental conditions, the coherence between a sentence and a subsequent test statement ranged from an explicit and a paraphrastic...

In the last decade, functional connectivity (FC) has been increasingly adopted based on its ability to capture statistical dependencies between multivariate brain signals. However, role of FC in context brain-computer interface applications is still poorly understood. To address this gap knowledge, we considered a group 20 healthy subjects during an EEG-based hand motor imagery (MI) task. We st...

The alterations in the activities of acid and alkaline phosphatase are good indicators stress due to exposure fish any toxicant. perturbations their may result decreased immune responses intestinal microflora activity. In present study, effect sublethal concentrations lindane (0.025, 0.05 0.1 mg/l) different tissues C. punctatus exposed for 96h has been studied. data showed decrease (AcP) activ...

The electrophysiological brain activities are nonlinear in nature as measured by Electroencephalography (EEG). There are coherent activities in brain not only seen during explicit tasks but also during rest. This article aims to employ most robust nonlinear dynamics Time Frequency representation (TFR) techniques such as wavelet phase coherence to investigate brain activity in different frequenc...

Rhythmic synchronization likely subserves interactions among neuronal groups. One of the best studied rhythmic synchronization phenomena in the human nervous system is the beta-band (15-30 Hz) synchronization in the motor system. In this study, we imaged structures across the human brain that are synchronized to the motor system's beta rhythm. We recorded whole-head magnetoencephalograms (MEG) ...
