Protection of Precision Cut - Goat Liver Slices By Zea Mays Leaf Extracts From Hydrogen Peroxide Induced Oxidative Stress In Vitro
Plants play an indispensable part in the environment, especially as a medication to protect man from intrinsic and extrinsic ill effects imparted by stress agents. In tune with the search of antioxidant-rich plants, the leaves of Zea mays were analyzed for its antioxidant potential at three different stages of growth. The effect of the leaf extract on the oxidant stress induced in in vitro syst...
متن کاملInteractive toxicity and stress protein expression by vinylidene chloride and monochloroacetate in precision-cut rat liver slices.
Vinylidene chloride (VDC) is a groundwater and drinking water contaminant. Monochloroacetic acid (MCA) is a chlorination by-product of drinking water. Because environmental or occupational exposure to chemicals takes place at low concentrations, a sensitive in vitro system of liver slices was used to examine the interactive toxicity of MCA and VDC. Liver slices from Sprague-Dawley rats were exp...
متن کاملBiaxial distension of precision-cut lung slices.
The mechanical forces acting on lung parenchyma during (mechanical) ventilation and its (patho)physiological consequences are currently under intense scrutiny. Several in vivo and cell culture models have been developed to study the pulmonary responses to mechanical stretch. While providing extremely useful information, these models do also suffer from limitations in being either too complex fo...
متن کاملAn in vitro method of alcoholic liver injury using precision-cut liver slices from rats.
Alcohol abuse results in liver injury, but investigations into the mechanism(s) for this injury have been hampered by the lack of appropriate in vitro culture models in which to conduct in depth and specific studies. In order to overcome these shortcomings, we have developed the use of precision-cut liver slices (PCLS) as an in vitro culture model in which to investigate how ethanol causes alco...
متن کاملElastase-Induced Parenchymal Disruption and Airway Hyper Responsiveness in Mouse Precision Cut Lung Slices: Toward an Ex vivo COPD Model
Background: COPD is a progressive lung disease characterized by emphysema and enhanced bronchoconstriction. Current treatments focused on bronchodilation can delay disease progression to some extent, but recovery or normalization of loss of lung function is impossible. Therefore, novel therapeutic targets are needed. The importance of the parenchyma in airway narrowing is increasingly recognize...
