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 · 6,931 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffect of Green Tea on Hepatic Cells Under the Influence of Inflammatory Conditions: In Vitro StudyIbrahim G. Saleh, Zulfiqar Ali, Farid M. Hamada et al.The concern about safety of consumption of Green Tea (GT) supplements has become a scope of many studies. We and others have described earlier the effect of the administration of GT and its polyphenols on liver in a mouse model. In this study we aimed to investigate the effect of GT on HepG2 cells. HepG2 cells were treated with different … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 8, Issue 4 · 3 Dec 2013 · 7,314 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractHepatoprotective Effect of N-Acetylcystiene on the Toxic Hazards of titanium Dioxide NanoparticlesHossam Fouad Attia, Mohamed Mohamed Soliman, Gamal Hassan Abdel-Rahman et al.The present study was directed to evaluate the toxic effects of orally administered titanium dioxide naonparticles (TiO2) on liver of male albino rats and to evaluate the ameliorative effects of N-acetylcysteine (NAC). Forty adult male albino rats were divided into 4 groups; control group, NAC group, TiO2 group and TiO2/ NAC group. Rats were administered either TiO2 (1200 mg kg-1 … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 8, Issue 4 · 26 Sep 2013 · 8,133 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAroclor 1254 Toxicity to Mice Liver Membrane AtpasesShweta Pathak, Rahul KunduPresent communication reports the sub-acute dose and exposure duration dependent effects of Aroclor 1254 on total, Na+, K+, Ca++ and Mg++-ATPases of the mouse liver cells. The study tests two hypotheses, (a) whether the sublethal dose or the exposure duration dependent in vivo exposure of hydrophobic PCB (Aroclor 1254) affects the hydrophilic membrane-bound ion dependent ATPases of the liver cells … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 8, Issue 2 · 13 Jul 2013 · 6,791 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffect of Storing Temperature on Hepatotoxicity and Nephrotoxicity of Ifosfamide in Female RatFalah Mohammed AzizProblem statement: Ifosfamide (IFO) is a cytotoxic alkylating drug used for the treatment of a variety of cancers, although it has been found to induce certain hematological, hepatotoxic and nephrotoxic side effects. This drug is widely used in developing country, especially Iraq, but without caring too much to the storing temperature due to low drug maintaining facilities.
