Effect of Maharishi Amrit Kalash an ayurvedic herbal mixture on lipid peroxidation and neuronal lipofuscin accumulation in ageing guinea pig brain.
The effects of ayurvedic herbal mixture Maharishi Amrit Kalash(MAK) were studied on brain lipid peroxidation, oxygen consumption, and lipofuscin accumulation in 10 months and 32 months old guinea pigs. Brain regions studied were cerebral cortex, hypothalamus, cerebellum and spinal cord. Parameters assessed were lipid peroxidation, oxygen consumption, and lipofuscin accumulation. The endogenous ...
متن کاملProtective effect of ginger on diazinon-induced brain toxicity
Background and objectives: Diazinon (DZN), an organophosphate insecticide, is widely used in agriculture. One of its deleterious effects is on neural systems. Diazinon with acetylcholinesterase activity and lipid peroxidation induces brain toxicity . Ginger, as a medicinal plant, has antioxidant and anti-imflammatory properties. The aim of present study was to evaluate...
متن کاملAdaptive changes of redox status in rat brain tissues due to decimeter microwave irradiation
Electromagnetic waves affect living organisms and it is of great interest for wide interaction of new sources with a diversity of frequencies and powers to life of people. In the last few years, many authors have proposed that the biological effect of electromagnetic fields in both the high-frequency and low-frequency ranges are connected with oxidative processes in tissues. Studying the change...

متن کاملEstradiol Modulates Membrane-Linked ATPases, Antioxidant Enzymes, Membrane Fluidity, Lipid Peroxidation, and Lipofuscin in Aged Rat Liver
Free radical production and oxidative stress are known to increase in liver during aging, and may contribute to the oxidative damage. These changes increase during menopausal condition in females when the level of estradiol is decreased. The objective of this study was to observe the changes in activities of membrane linked ATPases (Na(+)K(+) ATPase, Ca(2+) ATPase), antioxidant enzymes (superox...
