Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSorbitol-Induced Diabetic-Like Retinal Lesions in Rats: Microscopic StudyGaber A. RamadanThe present study investigated the sorbitol toxicity on the retinas of normal albino rats and founded by the light microscope that intra-peritoneal injection of Sorbitol (10-mg/kg-body weight per day) for 24 weeks produced similar diabetic like retinal lesions in these rats. The retinopathic effects of sorbitol injection affect retinal microvessels, pigment epithelium, neural retina and glial cells. Cytoplasmic vacuolation of … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 2, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2007 · 7,634 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEmetine produce Entamoeba histolytica Death by Inducing a Programmed Cell DeathJ.D. Villalba-Magdaleno, R. Rojas, C. Gómez et al.Amoebiasis is a major public health problem in tropical and subtropical countries. Although a number of antiamoebic agents are used for its treatment and the molecular targets of these drugs have been identified, the biochemical and physiological mechanisms that produce trophozoite death are little known. The present study dates the in vitro induction of programmed cell death (PCD) in E. … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 3, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2007 · 7,214 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractVibrio cholerae O1 Strains of Different Ribotypes have Similar hlyA RFLP Patterns but Different Vacuolating AbilityJorge E. Vidal, Paula Figueroa-Arredondo, Silvia Giono-Cerezo et al.Extensive cytoplasmic vacuolation on Vero and HeLa cells in vitro by the Vibrio cholerae pore forming toxin HlyA, has been previously reported by our group. Vibrio cholerae O1 and non-O1 pathogenic strains show differences in the potential to induce vacuolation, here we study occurring variations on vacuolating cytotoxic ability, related to changes in the nucleotide sequence of the hlyA-orf. A … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 3, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2007 · 6,989 accessesView PDF Cite
