Compromised zinc status of experimental rats as a consequence of prolonged iron & calcium supplementation
BACKGROUND & OBJECTIVES Iron supplementation is usually given to pregnant and lactating women who may also have marginal deficiency of zinc. The negative impact of supplemental iron and calcium on zinc status is a cause of concern. The present investigation was undertaken to examine the effect of inclusion of iron and calcium in the diet at supplementary levels on zinc status of experimental ra...
متن کاملThe Healing Effects of Hydroalcoholic Extract of Carum Copticum L. on Experimental Colitis in Rats
Background: Ulcerative colitis is an inflammatory disease with indefinite treatment. The present study aimed to assess the anti-inflammatory and antioxidant effects of Carum copticum L. (CC) extract on induced colitis in rats. Methods: Sixty male rats were randomly divided into six groups (n=10 per group). Acetic acid-induced colitis rats were orally administered with doses of 100, 200, a...
متن کاملMethyl deficient diet aggravates experimental colitis in rats
Inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD) result from complex interactions between environmental and genetic factors. Low blood levels of vitamin B12 and folate and genetic variants of related target enzymes are associated with IBD risk, in population studies. To investigate the underlying mechanisms, we evaluated the effects of a methyl-deficient diet (MDD, folate, vitamin B12 and choline) in an exper...
متن کاملInterleukin 10 gene transfer prevents experimental colitis in rats.
BACKGROUND The development of colitis in interleukin 10 (IL-10) deficient mice, together with the known anti-inflammatory and immunomodulatory properties of this cytokine have prompted consideration of IL-10 as a treatment for inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). However, studies using hrIL-10 in IBD models have yielded inconsistent results. AIMS To examine the therapeutic potential of overexpre...
متن کاملEffect of homocysteine on intestinal permeability in rats with experimental colitis, and its mechanism
OBJECTIVE To investigate the effect of homocysteine (Hcy) on intestinal permeability in rats with TNBS/ethanol-induced colitis and elucidate its mechanism. METHODS Sprague-Dawley rats were divided into four groups: normal, normal + Hcy injection, TNBS model, and TNBS model + Hcy injection. Experimental colitis was induced by trinitrobenzene sulfonic acid (TNBS) in 50% ethanol; rats were injec...
