Activity of ∆9-desaturase enzyme in mammary gland of lactating buffaloes

Function of arginase in lactating mammary gland.

The potential for a considerable formation of ornithine exists in lactating mammary gland because of its arginase content. Late in lactation arginase reaches an activity in the gland higher than that present in any rat tissue except liver. Occurrence of the urea cycle can be excluded since two enzymes for the further reaction of ornithine in the cycle, carbamoyl phosphate synthetase I and ornit...

comparison of catalytic activity of heteropoly compounds in the synthesis of bis(indolyl)alkanes.

heteropoly acids (hpa) and their salts have advantages as catalysts which make them both economically and environmentally attractive, strong br?nsted acidity, exhibiting fast reversible multi-electron redox transformations under rather mild conditions, very high solubility in polar solvents, fairly high thermal stability in the solid states, and efficient oxidizing ability, so that they are imp...

Effects of stinging nettle (Urtica Dioica L.,) on antioxidant enzyme activities in Rat Model of mammary gland cancer

Stinging nettle (Urtica dioica L.,) is a medicinal herb commonly used by humans. The role of reactive oxygen metabolites on cancer etiology is known. There are some studies about the antioxidant effects of Urtica Dioica (UD) on therapy of some cancer types. This study aimed to investigate the effects of UD on antioxidant enzyme activities and mammary gland cancer induced by in rats-N-methyl-N-n...
