Background and purpose: Ghrelin secreted mainly by stomach in food restriction. This neuropeptide is also expressed in ovary. Although effect of weight loss on reproductive system is obvious but the mechanism of this effect is not fully understood. The aim of this study was investigating the effect of minus energy balance on ghrelin, ghrelin receptor, aromatase, and StAR gene expression in diff...

Background: Most of colorectal cancers arise from intestinal polyps. Evaluating of the expression level of genes that are involved in tumors growth and development, may consider as diagnostic factor of malignancy in the polyps. Failure of apoptosis is one of the causes of cancers. One of the key molecules in this pathway is Bid gene which connects the extrinsic to the intrinsic apoptosis pathwa...

Introduction: Regular exercise training with alternating volume fluctuatesblood glucous levels and by regulating signaling in gene expression reduces in myocardial cell apoptosis in diabetic patients. The purpose of this study was the effect of 8 weeks of high intensity interval training on the gene expression of BAX and BCL-2 in the left ventricle of diabetic rats. Methods: The present study ...

abstract the aim of the present study is to explore the impact of the cognitive reading strategy instruction on learners reading self-efficacy and their reading achievement. in order to fulfill this purpose, from 120 participants, 90 intermediate efl learners as an experimental group were chosen from three different educational settings namely, yazd university, yazd science and art un...

Background and purpose: Damage caused by ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) is one of the major causes of liver failure during surgeries. Endothelin as the main vasoconstrictor has two receptors; ETA and ETB. Increased number of ETB during ischemia-reperfusion, reduces tissue damages by sinusoidal dilation. This study investigated the effects of dexamethasone against liver endothelial glycocalyx injury...
