Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNasal Administration of Quercetin Liposomes Modulate Cognitive Impairment and Inhibit Acetylcholinesterase Activity in HippocampusTerdthai Tong-Un, Supaporn Muchimapura, Wathita Phachonpai, Jintanaporn WattanathornProblem statement: Oxidative stress is a major factor implicated in the degeneration of cholinergic neurons in Alzheimer’s Disease (AD). Several reports have indicated that antioxidant intake is beneficial to delay or inhibit the progression of this disease. Presently, Acetylcholinesterase (AChE) inhibitors are the mainstay of therapy for AD. Quercetin, one of the flavonoids in fruits and vegetables, has a powerful … …Neuroscience International, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 30 Jun 2010 · 7,170 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Proteomics Analysis of Drought Stress-Responsive Proteins as Biomarker for Drought-Tolerant Sugarcane CultivarsNisachon Jangpromma, Supansa Kitthaisong, Khomsorn Lomthaisong et al.Problem statement: The prime objective in breeding selection process of drought-tolerant sugarcane is to identify the correlating marker, which could lead to rapid screening for drought-tolerant cultivars. In this study, we have reported an unknown 18-kDa protein (p18) along with other stress-inducible proteins to be highly expressed in sugarcane leaves under drought stress condition. Approach: The 2D-PAGE patterns of proteins … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 6, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2010 · 9,814 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffect of Potassium Levels on Antioxidant Enzymes and Malondialdehyde Content under Drought Stress in Sunflower (Helianthus annuus L.)H. Soleimanzadeh, D. Habibi, M.R. Ardakani et al.Problem Statement: Drought stress as a major adverse factor can lower leaf water potential, leading to reduced turgor and some other responses and ultimately lower crop productivity in arid and semi arid zones. Sunflower is one of the main oil seed crops in Iran, where drought stress is the most limiting factor. Drought stress tolerance requires the activation of complex … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2010 · 10,779 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCamel's Milk Alleviates Oxidative Stress and Lipid Peroxidation Induced by Chronic Aluminum Chloride Exposure in Rat's TestesFahaid H. Al-HashemProblem statement: The present study was carried out to examine the effectiveness of Camel’s milk in alleviating aluminum chloride (AlCl3)-induced oxidative stress and lipid peroxidation in rat testes. Approach: White albino male rats (230-250 g) were divided into three groups of 10 rats: A control group, treated with normal saline and two experimental groups, the AlCl3 treated group and the … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 11 · 30 Nov 2009 · 7,429 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCamel's Milk Protects against Aluminum Chloride-Induced Toxicity in the Liver and Kidney of White Albino RatsFahaid Al-HashemProblem statement: Aluminum chloride (AlCl3) is commonly used in daily life but it can be potentially toxic. Therefore, the present study was carried out to investigate the protective effects of camel’s milk against aluminum-induced biochemical alterations and oxidative stress in the liver and kidney of white albino rats. Approach: White albino male rats (230-250 g) were divided into three groups … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 5, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2009 · 10,367 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Novel Rodent Model of Autism: Intraventricular Infusions of Propionic Acid Increase Locomotor Activity and Induce Neuroinflammation and Oxidative Stress in Discrete Regions of Adult Rat BrainDerrick F. MacFabe, Karina Rodríguez-Capote, Jennifer E. Hoffman et al.Innate neuroinflammatory changes, increased oxidative stress and disorders of glutathione metabolism may be involved in the pathophysiology of autism spectrum disorders (ASD). Propionic acid (PPA) is a dietary and gut bacterial short chain fatty acid which can produce brain and behavioral changes reminiscent of ASD following intraventricular infusion in rats. Adult Long-Evans rats were given intraventricular infusions of either PPA … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 4, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2008 · 12,613 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractInfluence of Ionizing Radiation on Antioxidant Enzymes in Three Species of TrigonellaMuna M. Al-Rumaih, May M. Al-RumaihThe response of three species of Trigonella, namely, Trigonella stellata, Trigonella hamosa and Trigonella anguina to gamma irradiation stress was investigated with respect to antioxidant enzyme induction. When dry seeds were subjected to gamma rays (0, 40, 60, 80, 100 Krad) from a cobalt source 60Co at a dose rate of 233.5 rad/ min, a dose dependent increase in the … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 2 · 30 Apr 2008 · 8,404 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAttenuated Superoxide Dismutase Induction in Retinal Cells in Response to Intermittent High Versus Continuous High GlucoseMichael A. Ihnat, Ronald C. Kaltreider, Jessica E. Thorpe et al.High glucose, particularly in oscillating conditions, produces an increase in oxidative stress and has been shown to result in an increase in diabetic complications, retinopathy in particular. The hypothesis of this work was that chronic exposure to intermittent high glucose results in an attenuated induction of an antioxidant response as compared to continuous high glucose exposure in isolated retinal cells … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2007 · 7,453 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffects of Computer Use on Human Salivary Oxidant/Antioxidant Statusİmge B. Ergüder, İlker DurakComputers are widely used in recent years but their effects on human health completely are known. The aim of this study was to investigate possible effects of computer use on human salivary oxidant / antioxidant system. Ten subjects were included in the study. Three saliva samples were taken from the subjects. First was obtained before computer use, second and third … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 1 · 30 Jun 2006 · 6,386 accessesView PDFCite
