[ 1 ] - Effects of IMOD™ on angiogenesis, miR-503 and CDC25 expression levels in heart tissue of diabetic male rats

Objective: Diabetes is associated with vascular complications and impaired angiogenesis. Since angiogenesis plays a crucial role in vascular homeostasis in ischemic heart diseases, in this study, the effect of IMOD™ on miR-503 and CDC25 expression level which are altered in impaired angiogenesis were investigated in heart tissue of diabetic rats. Materials and Methods: Forty male Wistar rats (2...

[ 2 ] - Protective effects of troxerutin on maternal high-fat diet-induced impairments of spatial memory and apelin in the male offspring

Objective(s): Maternal high-fat diet (HFD) is linked with metabolic and cognitive deficits in offspring. Neuroprotective effects of troxerutin, a natural bioflavonoid, have been reported recently. This study aimed to investigate the effects of troxerutin on spatial memory and serum and hippocampal apelin levels in the male offspring of HFD fed mothers.Materials and Methods: Three-week-old femal...

[ 3 ] - Effect of vitamin C on tracheal responsiveness and pulmonary inflammation in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease model of guinea pig

Introduction: In the present study, the prophylactic effect of vitamin C, as a potent anti-oxidant, on tracheal responsiveness to methacholine and ovalbumin, bronchoalveolar lavage fluid white blood cell (WBC) count and differential count, and also lung pathology in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) -guinea pigs (cigarette exposed guinea pigs) were examined. In addition, the relax...

[ 4 ] - Troxerutin affects the male fertility in prepubertal type 1 diabetic male rats

Objective(s): Diabetes can gradually cause damage to the function and structure of male gonads. This survey was conducted to investigate the effect of troxerutin on hormonal changes, serum oxidative stress indices, and testicular function and structure in prepubertal diabetic rats.Materials and Methods: Fifty prepubertal (6 weeks old) male Wistar rats were divided into five groups including Con...

[ 5 ] - تاثیر تجویز همزمان فلودیپین باCCPA (آگونیست گیرنده های A1 آدنوزینی) یا SCH58261 (آنتاگونیست گیرنده های A2A آدنوزینی) بر سندرم قطع مرفین

سابقه و هدف: قطع مرفین در مغز موجب افزایش فعالیتهای نورونی می شود که این امر با تغییراتی در میزان نوروترانسمیترها و سیستم پیامبر ثانویه در ارتباط است. در این مطالعه، تاثیر فلودیپین (مسدود کننده کانال های کلسیمی) به تنهایی و همراه با CCPA (آگونیست گیرنده های A1 آدنوزینی) و 58261 SCH (آنتاگونیست گیرنده های  A2Aآدنوزینی( بر سندرم قطع مرفین بررسی گردید. مواد و روشها: در این مطالعه تجربی 80 م...
