[ 1 ] - Evaluation of Cytotoxic Effect and Antioxidant Activity of Grape Seed Extract, Crocin, and Phenytoin
Antioxidant compounds inhibit formation of free radicals, chelate catalytic metals, and scavenge free radicals in biological systems. In addition, antioxidants play a decisive role in prevention of numerous physiological dysfunctions, cancers, and metabolic disorders. This study sought to evaluate the antioxidant capacity and cytotoxic effect of grape seed extract (GSE), crocin (CRO), and pheny...
[ 2 ] - Effect of WR-1065 on 6-hydroxydopamine-induced catalepsy and IL-6 level in rats
Objective(s): Neuroinflammation and oxidative stress play a key role in pathogenesis of Parkinson’s disease (PD). In the present study we investigated the effect of reactive oxygen species (ROS) scavenger WR-1065 on catalepsy and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) level of interleukin 6(IL-6) and striatum superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity in 6-hydroxydopamine (6-OHDA) induced experimental model of PD...
[ 3 ] - 8-OH-DPAT (5-HT1A agonist) Attenuates 6-Hydroxy- dopamine-induced catalepsy and Modulates Inflammatory Cytokines in Rats
Objective(s): Neuroinflammation in Parkinson disease (PD) is associated with glial cells activation and production of different inflammatory cytokines. In this study, we investigated the effect of chronic administration of 8-OH-DPAT on 6-OHDA-induced catalepsy and levels of inflammatory cytokines in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF). Materials and Methods: Catalepsy was induced by un...
[ 4 ] - Ultrastructural and Echocardiographic Assessment of Chronic Doxorubicin-Induced Cardiotoxicity in Rats
Doxorubicin (DOX) is one of the secondary metabolites of Streptomyces peucetius var. caesius. It is a common and effective chemotherapeutic agent used for the treatment of different diseases, including lymphoma, leukemia, breast cancer, and solid tumors. However, this medicine causes cardiotoxic side effects, which limit its clinical application. The present study examined the cardiomy...
[ 5 ] - Effects of Heracleum Persicum Hydroalcoholic Extract on Insulin, Serum Anti-Oxidant Enzymes, Glucose, and Lipid Profiles in Alloxan-Induced Diabetic Rats
Background: Heracleum persicum (H. persicum) is a medicinal herb used in Iranian traditional medicine for its anti-toxic property. It is commonly consumed in the form of food additives and as a medicinal herbal tonic to treat liver and kidney diseases. The present study aimed to investigate the anti-oxidant, anti-diabetic, and anti-hyperlipidemic effects of H. persicum hydroalcoholic extract in...
