Evaluation of the Use of Goats as an Animal Model in Solanum malacoxylon Toxicity: Growing Goats and Prenatal Study
Solanum malacoxylon a toxic plant contains a glycoside conjugated to Vitamin D3 that promotes in cattle a calcinogenic disease characterized by weight loss, stiffened, painful gait, hypercalcemia, hyperphosphatemia, and mineralization of soft tissues. The aim of this study was to evaluate the toxic effects of S.malacoxylon on ruminant species, the goat, with similar digestive physiology and pla...
متن کاملrabbit as an animal model for experimental research
animal experimentation is carried out in consultation with the veterinary wing but it is essential that be familiar with experimental protocols of animal model to be able to design an approriate study. this is more so in place where the veterinary facilities are not easily available.span rabbits are commonly used as subjects for screening implant material. they have gained favour for their nume...
متن کاملEffects of Platelet-Rich Plasma on Cartilage Grafts in Rabbits as an Animal Model
BACKGROUND Cartilage tissue has limited regenerative capacity and the management of cartilage defects has always been a challenging issue. Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) has been recently been used to improve healing of cartilage defects. In the present experiment, we aimed to investigate the effects of PRP on regeneration capacity as well as survival of the cartilage grafts in a rabbit model. M...
متن کاملOsteopenic mice: animal models of the aging skeleton.
While our understanding of the developmental biology of the skeleton, like that of virtually every other subject in biology, has been transformed by recent advances in human and mouse genetics, we still know very little, in molecular and genetic terms, about skeletal physiology. Thus, among the many questions that are largely unexplained are the following: why is osteoporosis mainly a women's d...
متن کاملMAKING AN EXPERIMENTAL ANIMAL MODEL FOR MULTIPLE SCLEROSIS
To understand the mechanism of Multiple Sclerosis (MS), an autoimmune demyelinating disease, the researchers developed an experimental animal model for MS, which is called EAE (Experimental Allergic Encephalomyelitis). There are several methods for inducing this animal model. In this research the active EAE, which is developed by injecting bovine myelin antigens into genetically susceptibl...
