Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractVitamin C Alleviates Chronic Chlorpyrifos Induced Alterations in Serum Lipids and Oxidative Parameters in Male Wistar RatsS. F. Ambali, M. Shittu, J. O. Ayo et al.Problem statement: Although the increase incidence of cardiovascular diseases, obesity and diabetes mellitus has been attributed to changing life style, the role of environmental contaminants is currently being given considerable attention. Pesticides, including Organophosphate (OP) insecticides are one of the most pervasive environmental contaminants that are deliberately released into the environment. Chlorpyrifos (CPF), a widely used OP insecticide has been … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 6, Issue 4 · 21 Feb 2012 · 7,578 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractStudy and Identification of Insulin-Like Growth Factor-I Gene Polymorphisms in Zel Sheep PopulationSeyed Mohsen Kazemi, Cyrus Amirinia, Hossein Emrani, Shahaboddin GharahveysiProblem statement: The IGFs play an important role in regulating somatic growth according to nutritional conditions. Polymorphisms of IGF gene are reported to be significantly associated with many traits. Approach: In these study 142 samples of DNA from Zel sheep were used for detecting the polymorphisms of promoter region of the Insulin-like Growth Factor-1 (IGF-1) gene. Therefore DNA extracted from … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 4 · 13 Jan 2012 · 7,745 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractOccurrence of Feline Immunodeficiency Virus and Feline Leukemia Virus Infection in CatsFabiana Alves, Daniela de Souza Rajao, Helen Lima Del Puerto et al.Problem statement: The objective of the present study was to evaluate occurrence of the Feline Immunodeficiency Virus (FIV) and the Feline Leukemia Virus (FeLV) infection in asymptomatic domestic cats in the metropolitan region of Belo Horizonte, Minas Gerais, using the Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) for FIV detection and SNAP Combo Plus for FeLV and FIV detection. Approach: Blood samples were … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 3 · 2 Nov 2011 · 8,721 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractGenetic Polymorphism Exon 9-11 at the Leptin Gene Receptor in Breeder Hens of Mazandaran Native FowlsHossein Ali Abbasi, Shahabodin Gharavysi, Rohullah AbdullahpourProblem statement: Leptin a 16 kD protein synthesized by white adipose tissue and involved in regulation of feed intake, energy balance, fertility and immune function. In order to evaluate the leptin gene receptor polymorphism, we have used a Restriction Fragment Length Polymorphism (RFLP) method. Approach: Blood samples were collected from randomly chosen 100 native fowls breeding station of Mazandaran. The … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 2 · 17 Sep 2011 · 7,705 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffect of Niacin on Hyperleptinemia and Ob Gene mRNA Over-Expression in Adipose Tissue of Dexamethasone Treated RatsTahoora Shomali, Mahnaz Taherianfard, Mehdi Fazeli, Niloofar SafaeiProblem statement: Glucocorticoid-induced ob gene over-expression and resulted hyperleptinemia may lead to adverse consequences especially on cardiovascular system; therefore, the present study was conducted to evaluate the effects of niacin on hyperleptinemia and ob gene over-expression due to dexamethasone administration in rats. Approach: Twenty four adult male rats divided randomly into four equal groups: 1- normal saline (control), 2- dexamathasone … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 6, Issue 2 · 17 Aug 2011 · 7,993 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDetection of Polymorphism at the Insulin Like Growth Factor-I Gene in Mazandaran Native Chicken using Polymerase Chain Reaction-Restriction Fragment Length Polymorphism MethodHossein Ali Abbasi, Mohsen KazemiProblem statement: Molecular genetics selection on individual genes is a promising method to genetically improve economically important traits in chickens. The Insulin like Growth Factor-I (IGF1) gene may play important roles in growth of multiple tissues, including muscle cells, cartilage and bone. Approach: In the present study polymorphism of the promoter and 5' untranslated region of IGF-1 gene of Mazandaran … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 2 · 8 Aug 2011 · 7,634 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Effect of a Prophylactic Dose of Ibuprofen on Plasma Level of Interleukin 1, Interleukin 6 and Tumor Necrosis Factor-Alpha in a 1500 m Running PracticeGholamreza Sepehri, Mohammad Pourranjbar, Ghollam-Reza Moshtaghi-Kashanian et al.Problem statement: there are controversies about the effects of anti-inflammatory drugs on exercised induced changes on plasma cytokines in untrained male athletes, so the primary purpose of this study was to measure the influence of a prophylactic dose of ibuprofen use on plasma cytokines during a 1500 m running race. Approach: Subjects were 10 untrained male Medical University students who … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 1 · 31 Jan 2011 · 7,892 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractHuman Immunodeficiency Virus and Carcinoma CervixA.
