The efficacy and prophylactic characteristics of omega-3 fatty acids in experimental gingivitis in rats
Objective(s):Gingivitis is an inflammatory disease that affects tooth-supporting tissues and is caused by a microbe-immune response. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of omega-3 fatty acids on immune system regulation and the prevention and treatment of gingivitis using an animal model. Materials and Methods: Gingival inflammation was induced by lipopolysaccharide (LPS) injectio...
متن کاملAntiarrhythmic effects of omega-3 fatty acids.
Fish oil, and omega-3 fatty acids in particular, have been found to reduce plasma levels of triglycerides and increase levels of high-density lipoprotein in patients with marked hypertriglyceridemia, and a pharmaceutical-grade preparation has recently received approval from the US Food and Drug Administration to market for this purpose. However, in both bench research studies and clinical trial...
متن کاملProtective effect of omega-3 fatty acids on diethylnitrosamine toxicity in rats.
OBJECTIVES In this study, it was aimed to investigate the effect of n-3 fatty acids (n-3 FA) on diethylnitrosamine (DEN) toxicity with respect to alterations including nitric oxide (NO) formation, uric acid level as well as some liver related enzymes such as aspartate aminotransferase (AST), alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activities in rats. MATERIALS AND METHOD...
متن کاملOmega-3 Fatty Acids: Possible Neuroprotective Mechanisms in the Model of Global Ischemia in Rats
Background. Omega-3 (ω3) administration was shown to protect against hypoxic-ischemic injury. The objectives were to study the neuroprotective effects of ω3, in a model of global ischemia. Methods. Male Wistar rats were subjected to carotid occlusion (30 min), followed by reperfusion. The groups were SO, untreated ischemic and ischemic treated rats with ω3 (5 and 10 mg/kg, 7 days). The SO and u...
متن کاملEvaluation of Protective Effect of Omega- 3 Fatty Acids and Selenium on Paraquat Intoxicated Rats
Paraquat (PQ) toxicity involves the generation of the superoxide anion, which can lead to the formation of more toxic reactive oxygen species. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of PQ on biochemical parameters in male rats and possible role of omega 3 fatty acids (ω3) and selenium (Se). The animals were divided randomly into 4 groups and kept at 10 rats per group. The first...
