Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Bioactivity of Fucoxanthin from Undaria pinnatifida in VitroYiting Li, Ye Liu, Yuepeng Wang et al.Fucoxanthin, a marine carotenoid, can be found in marine algae and some marine invertebrates, has remarkable biological properties for human health. It is known that fucoxanthin has anti-cancer activity on some human cancer cells such as human colon cancers, leukemia cells, prostate cancer cells, breast cancer cells. In this study, the fucoxanthin was extracted from Undaria pinnatifida, after purification by … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 12, Issue 2 · 7 Jun 2016 · 7,866 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAPPLICATION OF THE MEDIATION ANALYSIS APPROACH TO CANCER PREVENTION TRIALS RELATING TO CANCER SEVERITYYasutaka ChibaIn a cancer prevention trial, an outcome such as cancer severity cannot be evaluated in individuals who do not develop cancer. In such a situation, the principal stratification approach has been applied. Under this approach, the Principal Strata Effect (PSE) has been considered, which is defined as the effect of treatment on the outcome among the subpopulation in which individuals … …Current Research in Biostatistics, Vol. 4, Issue 2 · 6 Jan 2015 · 7,195 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBiochemical Efficacy of Nigella Sativa Oil and Metformin on Induced Diabetic Male RatsYassmina K. Mahmoud, Sherif Y. Saleh, Abd El Rehim A. El Ghannam, Ibrahim A. IbrahimThis study was carried out to investigate possible beneficial effects of Nigella sativa oil supplementation to diabetic rats. Fifty male Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into five groups (n = 10/group) as follows: group I (normal control), group II (diabetic control), group III (diabetic rats treated with metformin), group IV (diabetic rats treated with metformin and Nigella sativa oil) and … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 4 · 24 Dec 2014 · 7,898 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffect of Long Term Cadmium Chloride Exposure on Testicular Functions in Male Albino RatsRania Abdel Rahman Elgawish, Mohamed Elshabrawy GhanemThis study was carried out to investigate the adverse effects of different doses of Cadmium Chloride (CdCl2) on reproductive functions in male rats. Forty male albino rats weighted 100-130 g were equally divided into 4 groups. The control group received distilled water throughout the experimental period, while the three treated groups received 5, 50 and 100 ppm of CdCl2 in … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 4 · 10 Dec 2014 · 8,302 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEFFECT OF DIMETHOATE (AN ORGANOPHOSPHATE INSECTICIDE) ON THE REPRODUCTIVE SYSTEM AND FERTILITY OF ADULT MALE RATFerdinand Ngoula, Pierre Watcho, Augustave Kenfack et al.The pesticides are one of the most potentially harmful chemicals liberated in the environment in an unplanned manner. Dimethoate is widely used as a potent pesticide in many countries and has been shown to produce some adverse health effects. In the present study, we investigated the effect of dimethoate (an organophosphate insecticide) on the reproductive system and fertility of male … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 9, Issue 1 · 13 Feb 2014 · 8,595 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSPECTRAL DOMAIN FEATURES FOR OVARIAN CANCER DATA ANALYSISAhmed Farag Seddik, Riham Amin Hassan, Mahmoud A. FakhreldeinThe early detection of cancer is crucial for successful treatment. Medical researchers have investigated a number of early-diagnosis techniques. Recently, they have discovered that some cancers affect the concentration of certain molecules in the blood, which allows early diagnosis by analyzing the blood mass spectrum. Researchers have developed several techniques for the analysis of the mass-spectrum curve analysis and used … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 9, Issue 8 · 9 Jul 2013 · 6,915 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPlant Pectin: A Potential Source for Cancer SuppressionSuryakant K. Niture, Lubna RefaiPectin is a branched polysaccharide present widely in a variety of fruits. It has been of high interest to cancer biologists due to its involvement in metal/carcinogen detoxification and its anti-carcinogenic properties. In particular, Citrus Pectin (CP) and Modified Citrus Pectin (MCP) have been shown to have a significant inhibitory role in cancer cell metastasis, invasion, angiogenesis and survival. The … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 8, Issue 1 · 18 Apr 2013 · 15,524 accessesView PDFCite
