Increased oxidative stress and apoptosis have been implicated in the cardiotoxicity that limits the clinical use of cisplatin as an anti-tumoral drug. Our study was conducted to evaluate the protective potential of acetyl-l-carnitine, DL-α-lipoic acid and silymarin against cisplatin-induced myocardial injury. Eighty male albino rats were divided into eight groups. The first four groups were tre...

While the importance of incorporating technology in teaching and learning is acknowledged by several scholars, there are still serious challenges using to enhance science mathematics. In this quantitative study, technological, pedagogical content knowledge (TPACK) framework was used analyse factors that serve as predictors for pre-service mathematics teachers use effectively their teaching. The...

The aim of the present study was to investigate the effects of genistein (GEN) on myocardial fibrosis in type 1 diabetic rats and explore the underlying mechanisms. Rats were divided into 4 groups: Normal control (N), diabetic control (D), low‑dose GEN treatment (L) and high‑dose GEN treatment (H) groups. Following 8 weeks, the ventricular hemodynamic parameters, fasting blood glucose (FBG), he...

Mathematical knowledge has been defined in several ways the literature of mathematics education. Procedural (PK) and conceptual (CK) or both types are emphasis construction. This is a research-based paper extracted from dissertation MEd education first author under supervision remaining two authors. In this context, explanatory mixed method research study was carried out to find students’ level...

The Technological Pedagogical Content Knowledge (TPACK) framework provides a theoretical perspective of showing whether teacher can effectively design and conduct technology-enhanced instruction. In addition, social cognitive variables like self-efficacy, outcome expectations, interest intentions play vital role in teachers choose to integrate technology into their instructional practices. Ther...

A large part of the cytoplasm of the cells consists of components forming cytoskeleton. The constituents of the cytoskeleton in epithelial cells are actin-containing microfilaments, tubulin-containing microtubules and intermediate size filaments. The intermediate filaments are called as cytokeratins (CK). Thus, cytokeratins are a family of many different filamentforming proteins (polypeptides) ...

We studied the effect of prostate resection on serum creatine kinase (EC 2.7.3.2) and lactate dehydrogenase (EC 1.1.1.27) isoenzymes in 22 patients. Two hours after their operations, two-thirds of these patients had increased total creatine kinase activity. The MB isoenzyme was demonstrated in sera of 66% of the patients and the BB isoenzyme in 76%. MB content varied from 1 to 7% of total creat...
