Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEvaluation of the Renoprotective Effects of Valsartan in Methotrexate-Induced Acute Kidney Injury in RatsDina KutbiMethotrexate (MTX) is a widely used chemotherapeutic agent known for its nephrotoxic effects, which can lead to acute kidney injury in hospitalized patients. However, the mechanism by which MTX induces nephrotoxicity is not entirely clear, but it is believed to involve oxidative stress and direct toxic effects on renal tubules. Valsartan, an angiotensin II receptor blocker, has been shown to … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 24, Issue 3 · 4 May 2024 · 4,571 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAssociations of HSD17B1 Gene Expression with its DNA Methylation and Estradiol Level in Polycystic Ovary Syndrome Indonesian PatientsRina Puspita, Andon Hestiantoro et al.PCOS's origin and mechanism are still unknown. Epigenetics has been linked to PCOS in an increasing number of studies in recent years. The most extensively researched epigenetic alteration is DNA methylation. During organismal development, DNA methylation can control gene expression by altering transcription factor binding. The alterations in DNA methylation are directly associated with follicular development in PCOS. Studies show … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 24, Issue 2 · 8 Jan 2024 · 5,399 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffects of Purified Tick Saliva Toxins on Various Bio-Molecules in Blood Serum, Liver and Muscles of Albino MiceNidhi Yadav, Ravi Kant UpadhyayIn the present study, salivary toxins from Rhipicephalus microplus were isolated and purified on a Sepharose CL 6B 200 gel column at a constant flow rate with regular fractions of 5 mL/min. Pooled fractions were lyophilized and LD50 was then determined in albino mice. The LD50 value of the protein toxin of Rhipicephalus microplus was found 36.11 mg/kg body weight … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 19, Issue 1 · 30 Dec 2023 · 5,354 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAttempts to Stimulate Immunology Responses by Intramuscular and Intraperitoneal Delivery of EPS-Adjuvanted Mannheimiosis VaccineGhaith Hussein Mansour, Laith Abdul Razzak, Hassan Ibrahim Sheikh, Mohd Effendy Abd WahidThis study was conducted on 48 male Sprague Dawley rats to determine the immunological responses of experimental adjuvanted vaccines of Mannheimia haemolytica A2 (M. haemolytica A2) injection and to observe their protection level upon live M. haemolytica A2 challenge. Forty-eight clinically healthy Sprague Dawley rats were divided into four groups; Groups 1 and 2 were vaccinated intramuscularly and intraperitoneally, respectively, … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 17, Issue 4 · 22 Dec 2022 · 5,352 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractGrowth Performance and Blood Profiles of Indigenous Venda Chickens Under Intensive and Semi-Intensive Rearing SystemsBoasiako Oris Antwi, Ifeanyichukwu Princewill Ogbuewu, Christian Anayo MbajiorguA 91-day trial examined the impact of two production systems on crop content, growth performance, hematology, and blood chemistry of indigenous Venda chickens. One-day-old Venda chickens (n = 100) were randomly assigned to two treatments (T1 and T2) and replicated five times with 10 birds per replication. Venda chickens in each group were placed in five replicate pens, each having … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 21, Issue 1 · 12 Apr 2026 · 1,424 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractProtective Role of Chichorium intybus Extract Against Renal Toxicity Induced by Magnetite Silver Nanoparticles in Male RatsDoha M. Beltagy, Ehab Tousson, Nabiha I Abdo, Batoul M. IzzularabMagnetite silver nanoparticles (Fe3O4/AgNPs) symbolize a new candidate in several industrial and biological products for their activities, simple preparation and low synthesis costs. Many studies recommended the usage of Fe3O4/AgNPs to overcome lacking biocompatibility of AgNPs inside the body. However, Fe3O4/AgNPs also has toxic effects on kidney tissues. In this study, AgNPs was synthesized on the surface of magnetic nanoparticles … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 21, Issue 3 · 15 Sep 2021 · 6,318 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMicrocystin-LR Affects Ultimobranchial Gland of Catfish Heteropneustes fossilisChandra Prakash, Sunil Kumar SrivastavMicrocystin-LR (2.5 µg/25 g) was injected intraperitoneally to the fish Heteropneustes fossilis on day 1, 10 and 20 kept in either freshwater or freshwater containing ZnCl2. The fishes were killed on day 5, 10, 20 and 30 day. The serum calcium levels was estimated and ultimobranchial glands were processed for routine histology.
