The aim of present study was to assay ethnoph...

This study aimed to determine the effect of Moringa (Moringa oleifera Lam.) leaf extract on viability and motility spermatozoa rats (Rattus norvegicus) exposed heat (40 ºC). A total 25 aged 2.5 months weighed 200 grams were randomly divided into five groups. Rats in K (–) group not without administration. (+) ºC) for 1 hour daily Meanwhile, P1, P2, P3 groups administrated with 100, 200, 400 mg/...

Aging is characterized by progressive decline in physiological and body function due to increase in oxidative damage. Gelam honey has been accounted to have high phenolic and nonphenolic content to attenuate oxidative damage. This study was to determine the effect of local gelam honey on oxidative damage of aged rats. Twenty-four male Spraque-Dawley rats were divided into young (2 months) and a...

Our previous studies had reported that Human Tissue Kallikrein 1 (hKLK1) preserved erectile function in aged transgenic rats, while the detailed mechanism of hKLK1 protecting erectile function in aged rats through activation of cGMP and cAMP was not mentioned. To explore the latent mechanism, male wild-type Sprague-Dawley rats (WTR) and transgenic rats harboring the hKLK1 gene (TGR) were fed to...
