Abstract:

Objective(s): Particularly in developing countries, selenium and/or iodine deficiencies are encountered and use of pesticides in agriculture are not well-controlled. Fenvalerate is a pyrethroid insectide used in agriculture and has applications against a wide range of pests. This study was designed to evaluate the effects of fenvalerate on hepatic and cerebral xenobiotic metabolizing enzyme activities in the presence of iodine and/or selenium deficiency on a rat model. Materials and Methods: Iodine and/or selenium deficiency was induced by feeding  three-week-old Wistar rats with a diet containing

Alterations in Cerebral Xenobiotic-Metabolizing Enzymes in Iodine and/or Selenium Deficient Rats

The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of iodine and/or selenium deficiency on cerebral enzyme levels/ activities responsible for xenobiotic metabolism on rats. Three-week old male Wistar rats were used and feeding period was 7-weeks. Selenium deficiency was introduced by a diet containing <0.005 mg/kg selenium, and iodine deficiency was produced by sodium perchlorate containing d...

study the effects of low level laser diode on no production and healing of diabetic and cortisone acetate and normal wounded sd rats

nitric oxide (no) is a small molecule synthesized by most of mammalian cells with diverse biological activities including vasodilatation, host defense and wound healing. impaired wound healing is a common occurrence among diabetics and patients receiving glucocorticoid therapy. on the other hand the application of laser in biomedical area have been increased. thus, the current studies were desi...

Comparative studies on hepatic dimethylnitrosamine demethylase and some xenobiotic-metabolizing enzymes in the rat.

Dimethylnitrosamine is a potent hepatocarcinogen in a number of animal species including the rat (Magee & Barnes, 1956). Previous investigations into the hepatic metabolism of dimethylnitrosamine in vitro have shown that this compound is metabolized to formaldehyde, a process requiring NADPH and molecular oxygen (Magee & Vandekar, 1958). The requirement for these two cofactors has led to the su...
