Abstract: Background: Trigonella foenum-graecum L (Fenugreek) is an annual herb, mainly cultivated for its seed as well sprouts. Pharmacological investigations reported anti-bacterial, anti-diabetic, anti-cancer, anti-diarrheal, anti-hypercholesteremic, and antiinflammatory activities of L. Aim: The purpose this study was to accentuate on formulation granules investigate the effect germinated (...

Background: Chronic hyperglycemia is associated with long-term damage in the structure and functions of female gonads, especially ovaries uterus. Inulin major component Chicory (Cichorium intybus L.) roots leaves. used to prepare appropriate low caloric foods for diabetic patients maintain blood sugar levels. Aim: This work was mainly designed evaluate ameliorative role inulin extract on metabo...

Currently a new version of the distance education platform WeLearn [3] to be combined with an agent system ([1], also developed locally) for providing advanced services [2] is under development. In a previous stage of the project software was created to automatically derive keywords from documents, either from the different versions of metadata already contained (various Microsoft file formats,...

As our ability to store information increases, the mechanisms we employ to access that information become ever more important. In this paper, we present Archosum, a prototype of an organizational system that attempts to encapsulate the benefits of both hierarchical and keyword systems. By introducing abstract entities, Archosum provides a simple interface with which users can build and maintain...

background: quercetin is a strong antioxidant and long-term treatment of stz-diabetic animals and it has been shown to reduce oxidative stress.   objective: antioxidants have essential effect on spermatogenesis and sperm parameters. enhanced oxidative stress and changes in antioxidant capacity are considered to play an important role in the pathogenesis of chronic diabetes mellitus.   methods: ...

Abstract Background and Objective: Vascular abnormality and dysfunction plays an important role in the pathogenesis of vascular disease in diabetic state. In this study, we aimed to investigate whether an in vitro exposure of endothelium-intact aortic rings to Melissa officinalis (lemon balm, MO) aqueous extract could have a beneficial effect in rats with subchronic diabetes. Materials and Meth...

ODUCTION ar sensors with dual-polarization capability etter understanding and characterization of hazards. Advanced knowledge-based hazard algorithms would require better knowledge of ttering characteristics of hydrometeors such as , hailstones, and snowflakes. Especially, characteristics becomes important for utilize phase-array dual-polarization radar Traditionally, theoretical approaches [1]...

To study the effect of diabetes on hepatic protein synthesis and polysomal aggregation in pregnant rats, female rats were treated with streptozotocin prior to conception. Some animals were mated, and studied at day 20 of pregnancy, whereas, others were studied in parallel under non pregnant conditions. The protein synthesis rate measured with an "in vitro" cell-free system was higher in pregnan...

Constant infusion of [14C]tyrosine has been used to measure the fractional rates of protein synthesis in viuo in skeletal muscle, heart and liver of normal, streptozotocin diabetic and insulin-treated rats. Diabetes resulted in a 70% reduction in the rate of protein synthesis in skeletal muscle, and a 44 % reduction in that in heart. Insulin treatment increased the protein synthesis rate in bot...

The effect of halothane anaesthesia on the activity of the mitochondrial enzyme pyruvate dehydrogenase was studied in starved lactating rats. Extracts of freeze-clamped mammary gland and liver were assayed for pyruvate dehydrogenase activity. The fraction of the enzyme in the phosphorylated inactive form was increased greatly by starvation or by streptozotocin diabetes, and halothane anaesthesi...
