متن کاملSupplemental vitamin A enhances the recovery from iron deficiency in rats with chronic vitamin A deficiency.
Studies with anaemic children and pregnant women from areas where vitamin A deficiency is endemic have shown a beneficial effect on Fe status of supplemental vitamin A in addition to Fe supplementation. This suggests a relationship between vitamin A and Fe status, which we attempted to mimic in rats with anaemia and chronic vitamin A deficiency. Male rats were fed on Fe-adequate diets (35 mg Fe...
متن کاملEffect of Spatial Learning on Hippocampal Testosterone in Intact and Castrated Male Rats
Background: Sex steroids and their receptors exist in hippocampus and affect spatial learning and memory. This study was designed to measure testosterone level of CA1 and to assess the effect of spatial learning on its amount in left and right hippocampus of adult male rats. Methods: Sixteen rats were divided into two intact and castrated groups, and then trained in Morris water maze (MWM). An...
متن کاملThe effects of dietary vitamin B12 deficiency on sperm maturation in developing and growing male rats.
To evaluate the role of vitamin B12 on spermatogenesis, the effects of dietary vitamin B12 deficiency on sperm maturation in developing rat fetuses and young growing rats were examined. The vitamin B12-deficient diet was given to all the animals for three different periods: whole period (gestation to mature), gestation period (gestation to weaning), or immature period (3-12 weeks postnatal). Sp...
