Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractModulatory Effects of Bryophyllum Pinnatum Leaves Extract on Peroxidation Indices of CCl4 Induced-Hepatotoxicity in Wistar Albino RatsChioma Assumpta Anosike, Sophia Uyo Mokwunye, Victor Eshu Okpashi, Obiorah AbonyiThis research investigated the modulatory effect of methanol extract of Bryophyllum pinnatum leaves on peroxidation indices of CCl4-induced hepatotoxicity. Thirty rats of average weight 150g divided into six groups of 5 rats each were used for the study. Group one (control) received water and paraffin for ten days. Group two (treatment control) received water only, group 3 (standard control), received … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 12, Issue 3 · 17 Dec 2017 · 7,448 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractExploration of Antidiabetic and Hypolipidemic Activity of Roots of Croton ZambesicusPrakash Kumar, Rahul Kumar, Manoj Kumar Rastogi, Krishna MurtiThe aim of this study was to investigate the potential antidiabetic and hypolipidaemic effects of aqueous and ethanolic extracts of roots of Croton zambesicus in alloxan induced diabetic models to ascertain its pharmacological applicability. The roots of Croton zambesicus were collected, dried and extracted. The phytochemical screening as well as Median Lethal Dose determination (LD50) was done. The ethanolic extract … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 12, Issue 1 · 12 Jun 2017 · 7,851 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCocoa-Butter-Equivalent Production from Yarrowia lipolytica by Optimization of Fermentation TechnologyLina Zhao, Bo Li, Dan Xiong et al.In order to obtain the optimal control point for single-cell lipid production with fatty acid profile similar to cocoa butter, this study explored the effects of carbon source, nitrogen source, temperature, sterculic acid methyl ester, cobalt on cell growth and lipid accumulation of Yarrowia lipolytica. Glycerol and ammonium tartrate-yeast extract were chosen as carbon source and nitrogen source for production … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 12, Issue 4 · 29 Dec 2016 · 9,285 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractConversion of Mutton Fat to Cocoa Butter Equivalent by Increasing the Unsaturated Fatty Acids at the Sn-2 Position of Triacylglycerol Through Fermentation by Yarrowia LipolyticaDan Xiong, Huaiyuan Zhang, Yifang Xie et al.Mutton fat has a similar fatty acid profile with Cocoa Butter (CB), except that its degree of unsaturation of Triacylglycerol (TAG) at the Sn-2 position is considerably lower than CB and maybe increased by Sn-2 specific lipase to produce Cocoa Butter Equivalent (CBE), a healthy functional lipid. However, there is no commercially available Sn-2 specific lipase that can be used … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 11, Issue 2 · 4 Mar 2015 · 8,698 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBiochemical Efficacy of Nigella Sativa Oil and Metformin on Induced Diabetic Male RatsYassmina K. Mahmoud, Sherif Y. Saleh, Abd El Rehim A. El Ghannam, Ibrahim A. IbrahimThis study was carried out to investigate possible beneficial effects of Nigella sativa oil supplementation to diabetic rats. Fifty male Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into five groups (n = 10/group) as follows: group I (normal control), group II (diabetic control), group III (diabetic rats treated with metformin), group IV (diabetic rats treated with metformin and Nigella sativa oil) and … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 4 · 24 Dec 2014 · 7,898 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractProtective Effect of Galactomannan Extracted from Iraqi Lycium barbarum L. Fruits against Alloxan-Induced Diabetes in RatsAdnan J.M. Al-FartosyLycium barbarum L. (Solanaceae) is widely used in Iraqi Ayurvedic medicine for the treatment of diabetes mellitus. The present investigation was done to evaluate the effects of polysaccharide (galactomannan) from Lycium barbarum L. Fruits (GLBF) on serum blood glucose, serum lipid profile and lipid peroxidation and antioxidant defence system in liver and kidney of alloxan-induced diabetic rats. GLBF was found … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 11, Issue 2 · 15 Dec 2014 · 7,653 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractProtective Effect of N-Acetylcystiene Against Titanium Dioxide Nanoparticles Modulated Immune Responses in Male Albino RatsMohamed Mohamed Soliman, Hossam Fouad Attia, Mohamed Mahmoud Hussein et al.The protective effects of N-Acetylcysteine (NAC) against orally administered titanium dioxide nanoparticles (TiO2) for 3 months on male albino rats were examined. Adult male albino rats were given saline as a control group, TiO2 (1200 mg kg-1 BW), NAC (100 mg kg-1 BW) and co-treatment of NAC and TiO2 as a protective group for 3 months. Blood was assayed for … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 9, Issue 4 · 30 Nov 2013 · 7,273 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 · 7,723 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRelationship between Fetuin-A and Systemic Lupus Erythematosus as a Predictor Marker for AtherosclerosisOsama F. Mosa, Ibrahim H. Mohamad, Magdi M. SalamaProblem statement: Associations between serum levels of fetuin-A, C3 complement, calcium × phosphate product and calcification risk index and lipid profile in SLE patients were established. However, the mechanism of accelerated atherosclerosis accompanied with SLE remains elusive. We therefore turned to investigate the association between Fetuin-A, disease activity and accelerated atherosclerosis in patients with SLE. Approach: Serum blood samples were … …Current Research in Medicine, Vol. 3, Issue 2 · 15 Sep 2012 · 7,777 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractImplications of Method Chosen for Analysis of Fatty Acids in Meat: A ReviewLivia Facuri Araujo Macedo, Ellen Cristina Quirino Lacerda, Roberio Rodrigues Silva et al.The influence of the beef Fatty Acid (FA) profile on human health, has become a recurring concern. For an analysis of the lipid composition of food, it is necessary that the complex lipids be quantified in a suitable form for subsequent analysis of their composition by gas chromatography.
