Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleOrlistat Induce Renal Toxicity, DNA Damage, and Apoptosis in Normal and Obese Female RatsHaneen Mushtaq Hameed, Ahmed Flayyih Hasan, Zainab Haytham Razooki et al.Obesity has been linked to several chronic diseases, including fatty liver disease, fatty heart disease, diabetes mellitus, hypertension, obstructive sleep apnea, and cancer. The purpose of the current study was to determine how Orlistat affected renal toxicity, DNA damage, and apoptosis that were brought on by obesity in normal and obese female rats. There were four groups made up of … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 23, Issue 1 · 18 Jan 2023 · 5,831 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleZinc Phosphide Induced DNA Damage in the Blood Cells of Gallus sp. using Comet DNA AssayK. A. Muid, R. M. Shahjahan, R. Begum, R. A. BegumProblem statement: The comet DNA assay is considered a suitable and rapid test for DNA-damaging potential in environmental and biomonitoring studies. Approach: During the study comets were analyzed as a measure of DNA damage to quantify the damage in the blood cells of fowls (Gallus sp.) after exposure to Zinc Phosphide (Zn3P2). Here the potential for DNA strand breaks by … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 1 · 3 Mar 2012 · 8,953 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleAge-Dependent Variation of Telomere Length and DNA Damage in ChickenMaxim S. Makarenko, Alexander V. Usatov, Lyubov V. Getmantseva et al.Birds are unique models for molecular studies on aging processes and cellular senescence because of their slow rates of aging and comparatively long life spans among homoeothermic animals. The study aimed to examine the relative telomere length and amount of nuclear, mitochondrial DNA lesions in hens of different ages and to find out the correlation between these biomarkers of aging. … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 17, Issue 4 · 14 Dec 2017 · 7,505 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleBiomarkers of Oxidative DNA Damage and Soluble Fas/Fas Ligand in Type 2 Diabetic PatientsMohamed H. Mahfouz, Ibrahim A. Emara, Ghada A. OmarProblem statement: Involvement of oxidative stress in the pathogenesis of diabetic complications has been proposed. 8-hydroxy-2'-deoxyguanosine (8-OHdG) has been reported to serve as a new sensitive biomarker of the oxidative DNA damage in vivo. Apoptosis via Fas/Fas Ligand (FasL) interactions has been proposed to be a major T-cell-mediated effector mechanism in autoimmune diabetes. This study was undertaken to investigate whether … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 4 · 3 Feb 2012 · 7,106 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleIn-Vivo Evaluation of Hexavalent Chromium Induced DNA Damage by Alkaline Comet Assay and Oxidative Stress in Catla catlaKantha Deivi Arunachalam, Sathesh Kumar Annamalai, Jaya Krishna KuruvaIn the present study, the acute toxicity of Chromium in fingerlings of Catla catla, an Indian major carp, was evaluated with renewal bioassay method. In vivo studies were designed to assess the extent of Micronucleus Assay, Comet Assay under the exposure of common heavy-metal compounds, namely, Chromium Nitrate, using Catla catla (2n = 20), as a test model. The laboratory … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 6 · 15 Jan 2014 · 7,196 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleImpact of Coriander Seeds Extract Against Thyroidectomy Induced Testicular Damage and DNA Replication in Male RatsAzhar Azher Alankooshi, Ahmed F. Hasan et al.An important target organ for thyroid hormone activity is the testis and hypo or hyperthyroidism causes noticeable alterations in testicular function. This study aimed to investigate the therapeutic effect of Coriander Seeds Extract (CSE) against thyroidectomy induced toxicity, oxidative stress, injury, and proliferation in male testes rats. 40 male rats were equally divided into 4 groups [Gp1, control; Gp2, CSE; … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 23, Issue 2 · 3 Apr 2023 · 6,611 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsThe Effects of Costus Root Aqueous Extract against Schistosomiasis, Liver Damage and Oxidants in Mouse Models of Schistosoma mansoni InfectionAreej Jameel M. AlghabbanSchistosomiasis is one of the major human parasitic diseases in many developing countries that causing chronic ill health in humans. The present work aimed to study the possible curative role of Costus (Saussurea lappa) root extract against Schistosoma mansoni infection induced liver toxicity, cytokines, oxidative stress and DNA damage in mice. 40 adult male micewere divided into four groups (G1, … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 21, Issue 2 · 15 Apr 2021 · 6,409 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsStructural and Evolutionary Analysis of PARPs in D. discoideumA. Mehadvi Kawal, Hina A. Mir, Chethan Kumar Ramniklal et al.Problem statement: Dictyostelium discoideum, a unicellular eukaryote, exhibits multicellularity upon nutrient starvation, making it a better model for developmental studies and for the study of various signal transduction pathways. The most felicitous point of interest is that many of its genes show high degree of similarity to vertebrate genes. Poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP), a ubiquitous and abundant nuclear protein, has … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 7, Issue 3 · 3 Nov 2011 · 7,852 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsAssessment of Genotoxic Activity of Para-nitrophenol in Higher Plant Using Arbitrarily Primed- polymerase Chain Reaction (AP-PCR)Mohamed R. EnanParanitrophenol is a common toxic environmental pollutant; the aim of this study was to evaluate the potential of the DNA fingerprinting by AP-PCR assay to detect the DNA damage in the common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris) exposed to different concentrations of paranitrophenol (4.0-720 nM). The changes occurring in the fingerprint patterns were likely to be the result of paranitrophenol-induced DNA damage. … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 3, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2007 · 7,064 accessesView PDFCite
