Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIMPACT OF DEHYDROEPIANDROSTERONE IN PREVENTION OF PARACETAMOL INDUCED NEPHROTOXICITY IN RATSAbbas O. ElkaribParacetamol (PCM) overdose can cause nephrotoxicity with oxidative stress as one of the possible mechanisms mediating the event. However, Dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA), the major secretory product of the human adrenal gland, has been shown to possess a multi-targeted antioxidant activity which is also effective against lipid peroxidation induced in various animal models and against various human disorders. In this study, the … …Current Research in Medicine, Vol. 5, Issue 1 · 26 Mar 2014 · 7,568 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAdiponectin Regulation in Type 2 Diabetic Rats: Effects of Insulin, Metformin and DexamethasoneTamer Ahmed Ismail, Mohamed Mohamed Soliman, Shimaa Ahmed IsmailAdiponectin is a protein synthesized from adipose tissue, increases peripheral glucose utilization in liver and skeletal muscle. Adiponectin expression and secretion are decreased during obesity and insulin resistance. In this study, the effect of insulin, metformin and dexamethasone on serum lipid profiles was examined in Type 2 Diabetic (T2D) rats. T2D was induced by feeding rats a high fat diet … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 8, Issue 4 · 23 Nov 2013 · 7,730 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAcute Phase Protein Responses in Mice Infected with River Water Contaminated by Pasteurella multocida Type B: 2Mohammed Muqdad Khaleel, Faez Firdaus Jesse Abdullah, Lawan Adamu et al.Animals are predisposed to infections through varieties of ways which activate the innate immune systems at the initial phase of acute infections. Hemorrhagic Septicemia (HS) is a devastating septicemic disease of cattle and buffaloes caused by a particular serotypes of Pasteurella multocida and serotype B: 2 is the most importanta cause of the disease in Asia. Therefore, the present study … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 3 · 17 Sep 2013 · 7,758 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBiochemical and Hematological Alterations in Mice Inoculated with Outer Membrane Protein, Lipopolysaccharides and Whole Cells of Pasteurella multocida Type B: 2Faez Firdaus Jesse Abdullah, Lawan Adamu, Abdinasir Yusuf Osman et al.Haemorrhagic septicaemia in cattle and buffaloes is an economically important livestock disease in Asia including Malaysia. Therefore, the aim of this study was to investigate the biochemical and hematological alterations in mice model inoculated with outer membrane protein, lipopolysaccharides and whole cells of Pasteurella multocida type B: 2. Two hundred healthy male mice of eight to ten weeks old were … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 3 · 17 Sep 2013 · 7,318 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAcute Phase Proteins, Lipid Profile and Proinflammatory Cytokines in Healthy and Bronchopneumonic Water Buffalo CalvesSabry M. El-Bahr, Wael M. EL-DeebThe aim of the present study was to evaluate the diagnostic value of Acute Phase Proteins (APP), lipid profiles and proinflammatory cytokines in healthy and bronchopneumonic water buffalo calves. Therefore, sixty water buffalo calves (9±1 month old, 175±15 kg) were divided into two equal groups, the first group represented healthy, control, calves whereas calves of the second group were affected … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 9, Issue 1 · 18 Mar 2013 · 8,417 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractButyrate-Mediated Genomic Changes Involved in Non-Specific Host Defenses, Matrix Remodeling and the Immune Response in the Rumen Epithelium of Cows Afflicted with Subacute Ruminal AcidosisLouis Dionissopoulos, Anne Hermen Laarman, Ousama AlZahal et al.Subacute Ruminal Acidosis (SARA) is a disorder in cattle which can lead to chronic inflammation in the rumen epithelium, known as rumenitis. Butyrate has been shown to attenuate some of the detrimental effects of inflammatory gastroenteral disorders but the molecular mechanisms mediated by butyrate have not been defined. The objective of this study was to define the inflammatory-related genomic changes … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 1 · 10 Jan 2013 · 8,065 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractProtection of Terminalia belerica Roxb. Against Iron Overload Induced Liver Toxicity: An Account of Its Reducing and Iron Chelating CapacityBibhabasu Hazra, Rhitajit Sarkar, Nripendranath MandalExcess iron deposition in the liver catalyses the production of Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS) which in turn initiate oxidative damage of protein and nucleic acids leading to several human diseases. The fruits of Terminalia Belerica Roxb. (TB) has been most commonly used not only in stimulating gastrointestinal health, but also in treatment of various hepatic disorders. The present study was … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 7, Issue 3 · 20 Nov 2012 · 7,993 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAntigenic and Immunogenic Components of Haemonchus longistipes Identified by Western ImmunoblotingE. M. El Hassan, Sabry M. El-BahrThe present study aimed to examine the ways that the Haemonchus longistipes components interact with the host by investigating the components of the parasite which acted as antigens during infection and those who are capable of inducing immune response when administered as immunogens. Adult H. longistipes worms (300 females and 200 males) were obtained from the abomasums of naturally infected … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 8, Issue 3 · 20 Sep 2012 · 7,503 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRole of Angiotensin-Converting Enzyme and Vitamin D Receptor Gene Polymorphisms in Cancer Anorexia-Cachexia SyndromeAriele Fabris, Paolo Biagioni, Tiziana Punzi et al.The ubiquitin-proteasome pathway is a crucial connection between aberrant immune system activation, systemic inflammation and Cancer Anorexia-Cachexia Syndrome (CACS), a syndrome that culminates in hyper-activation of the ubiquitin-proteasome pathway. Angiotensin directly up-regulates this pathway, while vitamin D down-regulates it indirectly through the insulin-like growth factor-1 pathway. We investigated the genetic predisposition towards CACS in a cancer population, examining Insertion/Deletion (I/D) … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 8, Issue 3 · 2 Aug 2012 · 9,563 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractHepatoprotective Effect of Taurine Against Oxidative Stress Due to Methotrexate in RatE. Issabeagloo, M. Taghizadiyeh, P. KermanizadehProblem statement: Taurine, 2-aminoethanesulphonic acid is an essential amino acid. It is present at high concentrations in many tissues.
