Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTAURINE ATTENUATES HEPATIC AND CARDIAC DAMAGE AND APOPTOSIS IN RABBITS FED A HIGH-FAT DIETGamal Hasan Abdel-RahmanA hypercholesterolemia diet has been associated with the hepatic and cardiac abnormalities and the pathological changes. The present work was designed to investigate the histological and immunohistochemical changes in the liver and heart of rabbits when fed high fat diet and the possible protective role of an antioxidant "taurine". Twenty-four male white New Zealand rabbits were divided into four groups, … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 14, Issue 1 · 28 Dec 2013 · 6,935 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBIOCHEMICAL STUDIES ON NIGERIAN MONODORA TENUIFOLIA SEEDEkeanyanwu Raphael Chukwuma, Njoku Obioma UzomaThe nutritive constituents of the seeds of Monodora tenuifolia were analyzed to augment the available information on Monodora tenuifolia research. Blood glucose and lipid profile were investigated on the flavonoid rich fraction of M. tenuifolia in rats. The composition (gkg-1) of alkaloids, cyanogenic glycosides, tannins and flavonoids were 13.3±0.1, 21.2×10-2±0.6, 1.3±0.1, 1.7±0.1 and 11.7±1.1 respectively. The proximate composition (gkg-1) of … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 4 · 30 Sep 2013 · 7,575 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractProtective Effects of Propolis on Gamma-Irradiated Nigella sativa Extract Induced Blood and Immune Changes in Wistar RatsOsama Moseilhy Saleh, Mohamed Mohamed Soliman, Ahmed Abdel-Khalik Mansour, Omniya Mahmoud Abdel-HamidThe present study conducted to test the effect of Nigella Sativa (NS, 5 mg kg-1 of body weight), or γ-irradiated Nigella Sativa (GRNS) on the changes of blood component profiles, liver, kidney functions and immune cytokines secretion in male Wistar rats. Moreover, the possible protection by propolis (200 mg kg-1 B. W.) on the changes induced by NS and GRNS … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 9, Issue 2 · 20 Jun 2013 · 7,468 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractButyrate-Mediated Genomic Changes Involved in Non-Specific Host Defenses, Matrix Remodeling and the Immune Response in the Rumen Epithelium of Cows Afflicted with Subacute Ruminal AcidosisLouis Dionissopoulos, Anne Hermen Laarman, Ousama AlZahal et al.Subacute Ruminal Acidosis (SARA) is a disorder in cattle which can lead to chronic inflammation in the rumen epithelium, known as rumenitis. Butyrate has been shown to attenuate some of the detrimental effects of inflammatory gastroenteral disorders but the molecular mechanisms mediated by butyrate have not been defined. The objective of this study was to define the inflammatory-related genomic changes … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 1 · 10 Jan 2013 · 8,065 accessesView PDFCite

The present study was designed to investigate the hepatoprotective effects of standardized methanolic extract of Plumbago zeylanica root on paracetamol, CCl4 and alcohol induced hepatic injuries in rats and its possible mechanism(s) of hepatoprotection. Administration of hepatotoxicants like paracetamol (3 g kg-1, p.o.) or CCl4 … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 7, Issue 3 · 20 Nov 2012 · 7,641 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA NAPIN PROMOTER ACTIVATES GENE EXPRESSION IN DEVELOPING SEEDS OF LESQUERELLA FENDLERIGrace Q. Chen, Jiann-Tsyh LinLesquerella fendleri produces industrial useful Hydroxy Fatty Acids (HFA) in seed oil. To improve oil and HFA of L. fendleri, it is desirable to use of seed-specific promoters to control the expression of target genes by genetic engineering. A seed-specific promoter fragment, -397 to -1 of a napin gene (PnapA) from Brassic napus was isolated by PCR and constructed to … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 3 · 18 Sep 2012 · 7,897 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBiochemical Studies of Lipase from Germinating Oil Seeds (Glycine max)P. P. Gadge, S. D. Madhikar, J. N. Yewle et al.Problem statement: Lipase is one of the important enzymes in food, pharmaceutical, detergent and biofuels industries. Search for the lipase with distinct features, possibly from germinating seeds, is of interest for industrial applications. Approach: The lipase produced by soybean oil seeds was partially purified and characterized in terms of the optimal pH and temperature for activity as well as substrate … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 7, Issue 3 · 19 Jan 2012 · 9,706 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMeat Spoilage Mechanisms and Preservation Techniques: A Critical ReviewD. Dave, Abdel E. GhalyProblem statement: Extremely perishable meat provides favorable growth condition for various microorganisms. Meat is also very much susceptible to spoilage due to chemical and enzymatic activities. The breakdown of fat, protein and carbohydrates of meat results in the development of off-odors, off-flavor and slim formation which make the meat objectionable for human consumption. It is, therefore, necessary to control meat … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 4 · 2 Nov 2011 · 54,854 accessesView PDFCite
