Study of the Effects of Gamma Irradiation on Immunological and Pathological Characteristics of Bee Venom in a Mouse Animal Model

Extended Abstract Introduction and Objective: People are sensitive to bee venom and the presence of allergenic compounds in the venom has made it difficult to use and determine the optimal dose for treatment. The aim of this study was to reduce allergenic compounds and to evaluate the quality of gamma ray processed bee venom. Material and Methods: Venom samples were irradiated at dose...

Immunological effects of Teucrium polium on neutrophils

Teucrium polium, a medicinal plant that belongs to the family Labiatae is widely used in folk medicine as antidiabetic, antibactrial and anti-inflammatory agent. In this study, we evaluated the effect of Teucrium polium on the mouse polymorphonuclear neutrophils. The animals were divided into five groups including four test and one control group, which orally received 50 and 100 mg/kg of aqueou...

Hephaestin and ceruloplasmin facilitate iron metabolism in the mouse kidney

Multicopper ferroxidases (MCFs) play an important role in cellular iron homeostasis. However, the role of MCFs in renal metabolism remains unclear. We used Hephaestin (Heph) and Ceruloplasmin (Cp) single or double (Heph/Cp) knockout (KO) mice to study the roles of MCFs in the kidney. Renal iron levels and the expression of iron metabolism genes were examined. The non-heme iron content both in t...
