background autologous platelet concentrate has been used to improve the function and regeneration of injured tissues. tendinopathies are common in clinical practice, although long-term treatment is required. on the basis of lead time, we compared the effect of using platelet-rich plasma (prp) and platelet-rich fibrin (prf) in repairing rat achilles tendon. methods the effectiveness of using prp...

background: the purpose of this study was to create biomaterial scaffolds like platelet-rich plasma (prp) and platelet-rich fibrin (prf) containing stromal cell-derived factor-1 (sdf1) as a chemokine to induce hyaline cartilage regeneration of rabbit knee in a full thickness defect. methods: we created a full thickness defect in the trochlear groove of thirty-six bilateral knees of eighteen mat...

There is growing interest in flavonoids for their wide array of biological actions. In neurodegenerative disorders these naturally occurring polyphenolic compounds, are known to inhibit proinflammatory mediators such as in TNF–? and IL-6 in lipopolysaccharide (LPS) stimulated neuronal degeneration, which are associated with Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s disease. Recent studies on flavonoids have ...

Climate-induced warming of the Arctic tundra is expected to increase nutrient availability to soil microbes, which in turn may accelerate soil organic matter (SOM) decomposition. We increased nutrient availability via fertilization to investigate the microbial response via soil enzyme activities. Specifically, we measured potential activities of seven enzymes at four temperatures in three soil ...

prolonged local consumption of anethum graveolens leaves, as an antihyperlipimic and antihypercholesterolemic agent, has been associated in some patients with skin disorders such as darkening and pigmentation mainly in the exposed areas such as face and hands.anethum graveolens belongs to the umbelliferae family which is belived to be rich in photoactive furocoumarins. an oraganic extract of th...

Strawberry is rich in anthocyanins, which are responsible for the red color, and contains several colorless phenolic compounds. Among the colorless phenolic compounds, some, such as hydroxycinammic acid derivatives, emit blue-green fluorescence when excited with ultraviolet (UV) light. Here, we investigated the effectiveness of image analyses for estimating the levels of anthocyanins and UV-exc...

plants are rich source of phenolic compounds (phenolic acids, flavonoids and tannins) that are most important natural antioxidants. in the present study two ultrasonic methods including probe and bath were used for the extraction of phenolic and flavonoid compounds from celtis australis. the effects of different extraction time including 30, 60 and 90 min (bath method) and 5, 10 and 20 min (pro...

In the last few years boron (B) compounds became increasingly frequent in the chemotherapy of some forms of cancer with high malignancy and of inoperable cancers. As more B-based therapy chemicals are developed it is necessary to review the correlation between B and the incidence of different forms of cancer, the biochemical and molecular mechanisms influenced by B and to explore the relevance ...
