Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractHypoglycemic and Antihyperlipidemic Effect of Four Korean Medicinal Plants in Alloxan Induced Diabetic RatsJi Su Kim, Jung Bong Ju, Chang Won Choi, Sei Chang KimTo consider potentially new hypoglycemic and antihyperlipidemic sources, aqueous extracts from four Korean medicinal plants, Chrysanthemum coronarium, Dioscorea batatas, Morus alba, Citrus unshiu, were investigated in alloxan-induced diabetic rats. To induce diabetes, 36 rats were administered alloxan orally (120 mg/kg body weight) for 2 weeks and among those 6 rats were used as a diabetic control. Effect of extracts from … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 2, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2006 · 9,168 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractStability of Neodymium(III) Complexes of 4-Hydroxycoumarins with Anticoagulant ActivityIrena Kostova, Irina NikolovaComplexes of neodymium(III) with 4-hydroxy-3-(3-oxo-1-phenylbutyl)-2H-1-benzopyran-2-one, 4-hydroxy-3-[1-(4-chlorophenyl)-3-oxobutyl]-2H-1-benzopyran-2-one and 4-hydroxy-3-[1-(4-nitrophenyl)-3-oxobutyl]-2H-1-benzopyran-2-one were synthesized by mixing of water solutions of neodymium(III) nitrate and the respective ligands, in amounts equal to metal: ligand molar ratio of 1: 3. The complexes were characterized and identified by elemental analysis, conductivity, IR and 1H NMR spectral data. DTA and TGA have been applied to confirm the compositions of … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2006 · 7,556 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractInefficacy of Topical Diclofenac in Arthritic HorsesNicolás F. Villarino, Tomas J. Vispo, Marcos et al.The objective of the present study was test the anti-inflammatory efficacy of diclofenac dietilamine, applied epicutaneously at a dose rate of 0.44 mg kg-1, in a model of acute arthritis in horses. Four clinical end-points, as well as two biochemical markers, were used as surrogate markers of the required clinical response (analgesia, anti-inflammatory). Low diclofenac concentrations were measured in blood … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 30 Jun 2006 · 7,612 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractYoung Generation Attitudes and Awareness Towards the Implementation of Smart Card in Bahrain: An Exploratory StudyAdel I. Al-Alawi, Mohammed A. Al-AmerSmartCards are one of the latest additions to the continuing list of advancements and innovations in the world of information and communication technology. A SmartCard resembles in size and shape to a normal credit card or bank ATM card, with a microprocessor chip implanted into the plastic card. These cards are used not just as identity cards, like the earliest … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 2, Issue 5 · 31 May 2006 · 7,756 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractHepatoprotective Activity of Aqueous Ethanolic Extract of Chamomile capitula in Paracetamol Intoxicated Albino RatsAjay k. Gupta, Neelam MisraHepatoprotective activity of aqueous ethanolic extract of Chamomile recutita capitula against paracetamol induced hepatic damage in albino rats was observed. In the present study the effect of aqueous ethanolic extract of Chamomile recutita capitula on blood and liver glutathione, Na+ K+- ATPase activity, serum marker enzymes, serum bilirubin, glycogen and thiobarbutiric acid reactive substances against paracetamol induced damage in rats … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2006 · 18,953 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAssociation Between Circulating Early Endothelial Progenitors and CD4+CD25+ Regulatory T Cells: A Possible Cross-talk between Immunity and Angiogenesis?Shmuel Schwartzenberg, Adi Mor, Galia Luboshits et al.Regulatory T-cells (Treg) are a recently defined subset of CD4+ cells that can suppress inflammation and induce tolerance. Phenotypically, T-regs are characterized by a high level of expression of the IL-2 receptor alpha chain, CD25. Endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs) can transform into mature endothelial cells and promote vessel formation by inducing postnatal angiogenesis and vasculogenesis. Herein, we tested the hypothesis … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 1, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2005 · 6,905 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractImmunomodulatory Treatment of Infertility in Men with Elevated Antisperm AntibodiesIvan Bubanovic, Slobodan Kojic, Stevo Najman, Zlatibor AndjelkovicPossible causes of subfertility or infertility in men are still poorly defined, but one important category may be elevated level of antisperm antibodies (ASA) caused by infective and/or autoimmune diseases, as well as injuries of male reproductive system. In this study, blood sera from 45 infertile men of different age with ASA positive ELISA test were examined for the serum … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 1, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2005 · 8,842 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIsolation and Mutagenesis of Streptokinase Producing BacteriaThaer Taleb Abed Abdelghani, Adinarayana Kunamneni, Poluri EllaiahOf 103 β-haemolytic Streptococci (with haemolytic activity) in total were isolated from different samples of blood and biomass from infected throat, 47 isolates exhibited streptokinase (SK) activity. T3, identified as a new variant of Streptococcus equisimilis, was found to be excellent SK producer in submerged fermentation and was selected for strain improvement studies. This strain was mutagenized by UV and … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 1, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2005 · 7,794 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSoluble Tumor Necrosis Factor Receptor Type I and Dranulysin as Immunological Markers in Congestive Heart FailureSimone de Lima e Silva Deo, Maria Do Carmo Valente De Crasto, Alda Maria Da-Cruz et al.Previous studies have shown that circulating levels of cytokines are increased in patients with congestive heart failure (CHF), resulting in myocardial depression. In this work, we have determined serum levels of TNF-α and IFN-γ by ELISA, detected sTNFR-I by dot ELISA, as well as TNFα, IL-6, IL-10 and granulysin mRNA in unstimulated peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) by RT-PCR in … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 1, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2005 · 6,776 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIncreased Production of Nitric Oxide Contributes to Renal Oxidative Stress in Endotoxemic RatBahar Tunçtan, Belma Korkmaz, Hatice Yıldırım et al.Overproduction of reactive oxygen and nitrogen species leads to oxidative stress and decreased total antioxidant capacity, which is responsible for high mortality from several diseases such as endotoxic shock. Nitric oxide (NO) produced by inducible NO synthase (iNOS) during endotoxemia is the major cause of vascular hyporeactivity, hypotension and multiple organ failure. In this study, we investigated whether increased production … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2005 · 8,643 accessesView PDFCite
