Alkaline Phosphatase in Serum is a Marker of Human Toxocariasis
Background: The present study was carried out on the human population of Kashmir valley to evaluate the status of the biochemical parameters of infected population. Materials and Methods: Blood samples were collected from 514 individuals, 298 (57.97%) males and 216 (42.02%) females, 187 (36.38%) were found sero-positive for human toxocariasis. Results: Alkaline phosphatase level was found highe...
متن کاملErythropoietin expression in primary rat Sertoli and peritubular myoid cells.
Kidney and liver are the major organs of erythropoietin (Epo) synthesis. However, Epo messenger RNA (mRNA) has been detected in several organs, such as brain, lung, and testis. Furthermore, functional Epo receptors have been demonstrated on different cell types, including rat Leydig cells. The aim of the study was to identify testicular cells expressing Epo mRNA and to quantitate its levels by ...

متن کاملPeritubular myoid cells have a role in postnatal testicular growth
FSH stimulates testicular growth by increasing Sertoli cell proliferation and elongation of seminiferous cords. Little is known about the peritubular myoid cells in testicular development. In order to investigate the role of peritubular myoid cells in early testicular growth in rodents, two traditional models to induce testicular growth were used: FSH treatment and hemicastration. In order to a...
متن کاملLgr4-mediated Wnt/β-catenin signaling in peritubular myoid cells is essential for spermatogenesis.
Peritubular myoid cells (PMCs) are myofibroblast-like cells that surround the seminiferous tubules and play essential roles in male fertility. How these cells modulate spermatogenesis and the signaling pathways that are involved are largely unknown. Here we report that Lgr4 is selectively expressed in mouse PMCs in the testes, and loss of Lgr4 leads to germ cells arresting at meiosis I and then...
