The present study appraised the hepatoprotective activity of aqueous extract of Camellia sinensis leaves and its possible mechanism of action against carbon-tetrachloride-induced liver damage. Liver damage was induced by   intraperitoneal administration of equal mixture of carbon tetrachloride   and olive oil (50 % v/v, 0.5 ml/kg ) in male Wistar rats (150-220g) once daily for...

cutaneous lesions of fish from viral, bacterial, parasitic and chemical and mechanical factors are common. the rapid progress of infection and the mortality of fish need more attention. allium hirtiofolium is a native plant in iran which contains saponins, it has a role in inhibiting and killing cancer cells with anti-allergenic, anti-bacterial, anti-inflammatory and anti-virus effects. in this...

The causes of individuality of the plasma enzymes alanine aminotransferase (ALT; EC 2.6.1.2), aspartate aminotransferase (AST; EC 2.6.1.1) and gamma-glutamyl transferase (GGT; EC 2.3.2.2) were investigated in a study of 206 pairs of twins. Between-person variance was greater in men than women, while within-person variation was similar in both sexes. Plasma ALT and AST levels were affected by ge...

A clinical study on 100 cases of acute myocardial infarction (AMI) was done in Pathology Department, P.D.U. Medical College, Rajkot with emphasis on serological cardiac markers i.e., creatinine kinaseM & B chains (CK-MB), cardiac troponin-T (CTnT), aspartate amino transferase (AST) and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) was carried out between January2008 to December-2009. CK-MB and CTnT are the earli...

The individual and combined effects of dietary aflatoxin B(1 )(AFB(1)) and fumonisin B(1) (FB(1)) on liver pathology, serum levels of aspartate amino-transferase (AST) and plasma total protein (TP) of broilers were evaluated from 8 to 41 days of age. Dietary treatments included a 3 × 3 factorial arrangement with three levels of AFB(1 )(0, 50 and 200 μg AFB(1)/kg), and three levels of FB(1 )(0, ...
