Neural Modelling of Congenitally Abnormal Visual Pathways

Albinism and achiasma are congenital conditions severely affecting the normal routing of input through the visual pathways. However, these conditions do not have the profound deleterious effects on perception that would be expected from their impact on visual pathway structure. Evidence in human experiments suggests that in both conditions, these aberrant inputs are mapped onto the primary visu...

Garlic and vitamin E provides antioxidant defence in tissues of female rats treated with nicotine.

Nicotine is known to induce oxidative stress in rat tissues and the antioxidant properties of garlic have been reported. This study was designed to determine if the peroxidative damage caused by nicotine administration can be effectively prevented with garlic juice, and vitamin E, a known antioxidant.Four groups of six rats each were divided into: Group I: (control) received 0.2ml of 0.9% norma...

effects of mntnhex-2-pyp on lung antioxidant defence system in asthma mice model.

we aimed to study the mntnhex-2-pyp effect on some markers of lung antioxidant defence system in mice asthma model.the study was carried out on 28 c57b1/6 mice divided into four treatment groups: group 1 - controls; group 2 - injected and inhaled with ovalbumin; group 3 - treated with mntnhex-2-pyp and inhaled with phosphate buffered saline; group 4 - injected with ovalbumin and mntnhex-2-pyp b...

detection of volatile compounds of medicinal plants with some nano-sorbents using modified or new methodologies and investigation of antioxidant activity of their methanolic extracts

in this work, a novel and fast method for direct analysis of volatile compounds (davc) of medicinal plants has been developed by holding a filament from different parts of a plant in the gc injection port. the extraction and analysis of volatile components of a small amount of plant were carried out in one-step without any sample preparation. after optimization of temperature, extraction time a...
