Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractVitamin D Supplements Tone Down the Progression of Atheromatous Plaque Formation in a Dose-Dependent MannerAhmed Farouk, Khalid M. Mohany, Magdy Algowhary et al.Hypovitaminosis D has a negative impact on the cardiovascular system. We performed the current study to investigate the expression of Vitamin D Receptor (VDR) in atherosclerotic human male aortas and to examine the effect of different doses of Vit. D supplementation on VDR expression in the aortas of male rats fed a High-Fat Diet (HFD). Human participants included 50 atherosclerotic … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 17, Issue 3 · 5 Oct 2021 · 6,728 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractColor Doppler Evaluation of Isovolumetric Relaxation Time and of Signals Arising from Axons of the Median Nerve as a Means to Evaluate Mitochondrial Functionality in the Context of Immunotherapy of Cancer and Chronic Conditions Associated with Mitochondrial DysfunctionStefania Pacini, Marco RuggieroReactive Oxygen Species (ROS) arising from the disruption of mitochondrial respiration act as endogenous mutagens and tumor promoters. When production of ROS exceeds the capacity of DNA repair mechanisms, random mutations and aneuploidy ensue, thousands of genes become unbalanced and genetic/epigenetic chain reactions lead to progressive aneuploidy with only two outcomes: karyotypes so altered that are not viable or karyotypes … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 15, Issue 1 · 12 Oct 2019 · 9,700 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffect of Curcumin and Physical Training on the Brain and Motor Performance of Rats with Cerebral IschemiaKarine Sthéfany Serpa Amaral Dias, Jonas Augusto Ramos, Bruno Mattiello Gomes et al.Brain ischemia is the second most deadly disease in the world and it has already been proven that mild and moderate physical exercises minimize the deleterious effects of this disease on the brain. Curcumin has also been considered a neuroprotective substance. Therefore, the goal of this study was to evaluate the effects of high-resistance training and curcumin on the brain … …Neuroscience International, Vol. 10, Issue 1 · 25 Apr 2019 · 7,771 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNUTRITIONAL CHARACTERISTICS OF THE DAIRY COW DURING EARLY GESTATION AND SUBSEQUENT GROWTH AND CARDIAC MEASUREMENTS OF HER OFFSPRINGJ. E. Larson, B. E. Voelz, D. K. Hardin, C. O. LemleyThe objective was to determine whether maternal nutritional status and milk production during early gestation influenced or were correlated with parameters of the calf at birth and at 1 month of age. From parturition until 90 days pregnant, blood samples were collected every 14 days in dairy cows and plasma was assayed for concentrations of glucose and β-Hydroxybutyrate (BHBA). Calves … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 3 · 15 Sep 2014 · 7,629 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMoringa Oleifera Lam Mitigates Oxidative Damage and Brain Infarct Volume in Focal Cerebral IschemiaWoranan Kirisattayakul, Jintanaporn Wattanathorn, Terdthai Tong-Un et al.Problem statement: At present, the therapeutic outcome of cerebral ischemia is still not in the satisfaction level. Therefore, the preventive strategy is considered. Based on the protective effect against oxidative damage of Moringa oleifera Lam. Leaves extract, we hypothesized that this plant extract might protect against cerebral ischemia, one of the challenge problems nowadays. In order to test this hypothesis, … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 9 · 3 Aug 2012 · 7,576 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNeuroprotective Effect against Cerebral Ischemia of Passiflora foetidaJintanaporn Wattanathorn, Natcha Sattroopinat, Terdthai Tong-Un et al.Problem statement: Although cerebral ischemia induced by stroke has been regarded as the important problem worldwide, the therapeutic efficacy is still inadequate. Since the free radicals are implicated in the pathophysiology of cerebral ischemia, the prophylactic protection against stroke with neuroprotective agent possessing antioxidant effect has gained much attention. Therefore, this study was designed to determine whether the alcoholic extract … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 4 · 16 Feb 2012 · 8,245 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAbnormal Testicular Vascular Patterns amongst Three Trinidadians: (A Case Report)A. Odekunle, E. O. Uche-NwachiDuring our routine dissections to prepare teaching materials for our students we encountered three abnormal patterns of the testicular arteries in three Afro Trinidadian males. In the first case the right and left testicular arteries arose from accessory renal arteries. Their course to the testis remained unchanged. In the second case the left testicular artery arose from the left renal … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 1 · 31 Dec 2007 · 7,016 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCarica papaya Fruit Attenuates Apoptotic Degeneration After Permanent Cerebral Ischemia RatPratchaya KaewkaenApoptotic neurodegeneration is a phenomenon following cerebral ischemia. Both the increased caspase-3 and decreased Bcl-2 expression are reported to play crucial role on apoptosis in neuron. In addition, phytonutrient can successfully increase the endogenous antioxidant and lower the apoptotic responses. Therefore, anti-apoptotic effect of Carica papaya fruits was examined. To the best of our knowledge, no scientific effect was available. … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 14, Issue 4 · 22 Nov 2018 · 9,794 accessesView PDFCite
