Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsInfluence of Intracellular Reactive Oxygen Species in Several Spermatozoa Activity in Indonesian Ongole Bull Cryopreserved SpermKurniawan Dwi Prihantoko, Asmarani Kusumawati, Mulyoto Pangestu et al.Certain factors may affect sperm motility and integrity in a freezing process. Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS) is essential in damaging the sperm, as the previous study revealed that ROS is a major cause damaging the membrane of spermatozoa. This study aimed to understand ROS production and its interaction within the motility, mitochondrial activity and DNA damage to the cryopreservation process … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 17, Issue 1 · 26 Jan 2022 · 6,842 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractModulation of Aging in Yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae by Roselle Petal Extract (Hibiscus sabdariffa L.)Sarima, Rika Indri Astuti, Anja MeryandiniCellular aging drives diseases. Free radicals are called the main cause of cellular aging. Antioxidants can protect the body from free radical attack by reducing its negative effects. An antioxidant source can be obtained from plants, such as roselle (Hibiscus sabdariffa. L). This research was conducted to analyze the ability of roselle petals extract to increase the life span of … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 15, Issue 1 · 6 Apr 2019 · 9,646 accessesView PDFCite
EditorialOpen accessIn the abstractGLUTATHIONE: A POSSIBLE LINK TO AUTOPHAGY IN SYSTEMIC LUPUS ERYTHEMATOSUSDilip Shah, Swapan K. NathIncreased free radical formation and altered redox state are of fundamental importance in the pathogenesis of autoimmune diseases including Systemic Lupus Erythematos (SLE). Free radicals are mainly derived from oxygen (Reactive Oxygen Species/ROS) and nitrogen (Reactive Nitrogen Species/RNS) at mitochondria, cellular membranes and the endoplasmic reticulum membrane as physiological responses to a variety of internal and external stress (Shah et … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 10, Issue 3 · 3 Sep 2014 · 12,773 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffects of Gc-Macrophage Activating Factor in Human Neurons; Implications for Treatment of Chronic Fatigue SyndromeRodney Smith, Lynda Thyer, Emma Ward et al.Myalgic Encephalomyelitis/Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (ME/CFS) is a debilitating disease of multifactorial aetiology characterized by immune system dysfunction, widespread inflammation, multisystemic neuropathology and persistent pain. Given the central role of the immune system in the pathogenesis of the syndrome, we studied the effects of a potent modulator of the immune system in in vitro and in vivo models that could help … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 9, Issue 4 · 6 Nov 2013 · 10,982 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractConcentration-Effect, Incidence and Mechanism of Nevirapine HepatotoxicityAdikwu Elias, Brambaifa NelsonNevirapine is a dipyridozepinone non nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor approved for use in HIV-infected patients. Its efficacy has been well demonstrated in numerous clinical trials. It has activity against HIV-1 but does not have significant activity against HIV-2 or other retroviruses. Nevirapine is used as one of the components of highly active antiretroviral therapy in HIV patients and in the … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 8, Issue 1 · 19 Apr 2013 · 8,156 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffect of New Compound with Antioxidant Potential in the Energy Metabolism of Adults Rats after Pneumococcal MeningitisT. Barichello, Geovana Dagostim Savi, A. P. Panatto et al.Problem statement: In bacterial meningitis, the Streptococcus pneumoniae can modify the cerebro-spinal fluid (CSF) homeostasis and initiation of the host inflammatory response with presence cytokine and leukocyte migration into the subarachnoidal space. Despite the availability of highly effective antibiotics, the disease is often fatal or causes long-term neurological problems in affected patients. Approach: The aim of this study was to … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 7, Issue 2 · 15 Jun 2012 · 7,788 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Effect of Phyllanthus taxodiifolius Beille Extracts and its Triterpenoids Studying on Cellular Energetic Stage of Cancer CellsPatiwat Sakkrom, Wilart Pompimon, Puttinan Meepowpan et al.Problem statement: The Multidrug Resistance phenomenon (MDR) is the cause of unsuccessful in cancer chemotherapy. The tradition plant is the population used as the alternative medicine in cancer therapy. Due to, P. taxodiifolius is medicinal Thai plant which is used as diuretic drug which has never been explored as the anticancer activities. Approach: Air-dried powder of P. taxodiifolius leaves and … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 5, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2010 · 8,750 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractOsmolarity of Coconut Water (Cocos nucifera) Based Diluents and their Effect Over Viability of Frozen Boar SemenBottini Luzardo, M. Centurion Castro, F. Alfaro Gamboa et al.Problem statement: Boar sperm cells are sensitive to the freezing process, which compromises viability of frozen-thawed sperm. In a constant search for minimizing or suppressing sperm cell damage caused by the temperature and osmolarity changes during the freezing process, crioprotective and antioxidant substances have been added to the freezing media, such as coconut water, in order to increase the viability … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2010 · 8,115 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractInvolvement of Microsomal Na+/K+ ATPase Activity in the Mechanism of Action of Dopaminergic D2 ReceptorsAbdulrahim Abu-JayyabProblem statement: Our previous research has shown that mitochondrial ATPase may have a role in the action of dopaminergic D2 receptors. It is therefore, thought of interest to investigate the effect of bromocriptine, sulpiride or their combination on the mitochondrial and microsomal ouabain sensitive and ouabain insensitive Na+/K+-ATPase in the liver of rats. Approach: In vivo treatment was carried out … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 4, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2009 · 6,971 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCadmium Induced Changes in Metabolic Function of Mitochondrial Isolated from Potato Tissue (Solanum tuberosum L.)Chagra Ali, Djebar Mohammed Réda, Rouabhi Rachid, Berrebbah HouriaProblem statement: Cadmium is highly toxic at low concentrations, but the mechanism of its toxicity is still not understood particularly at the cellular and subcellular level. Approach: In this study we examined the effects of cadmium on the oxidophosphorylation properties of mitochondria isolated from potatoes. Results: Cadmium strongly disturbed the respiratory metabolism of mitochondria isolated especially in the transfer of … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 5, Issue 1 · 31 Aug 2009 · 7,838 accessesView PDFCite
