Isoniazid (INH) treatment can cause serious liver injury and autoimmunity. There are now several lines of evidence that INHinduced liver injury is immune mediated, but this type of liver injury has not been reproduced in animals, possibly because immune tolerance is the dominant response of the liver. In this study, we immunized mice with isonicotinic acid (INA)-modified proteins and Freund’s a...

AIM To evaluate a calcium activated potassium channel (KCa3.1) inhibitor attenuates liver disease in models of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). METHODS We have performed a series of in vitro and in vivo studies using the KCa3.1 channel inhibitor, Senicapoc. Efficacy studies of Senicapoc were conducted in toxin-, thioacetamide (TAA) and high fat diet (HFD)-induced models of liver fib...

The present study examined the role of nitric oxide in cocaine-induced apoptosis in bovine coronary artery endothelial cells (BCAECs). Cocaine produced a time-dependent decrease in cell viability and an increase in apoptosis in BCAECs, which were blocked by the nitric oxide donors DETA-NONOate (DETA-NO) and S-nitroso-N-acetyl-penicillamine. In accordance, cocaine decreased nitric oxide producti...

background fenton (fe2+ and h2o2) and modified fenton (fe3+ and h2o2) are two popular methods used in advanced oxidation processes (aop) and degradation of persistent organic pollutants (pops), such as dye compounds. in these processes, fe2+ and fe3+ as catalysts and h2o2 as the oxidizing agent are added to the reactor. objectives the aim of the current study is to assess the abovementioned met...

background and objectives: discharge of wastewater from textile dyeing industries has been a problem in terms of pollution and treatment of these waters is a great task. keeping this in mind, the aim of our current research is to study the effect of various bioprocess variables on decolorization of an azo dye, congo red, by a fungal isolate, aspergillus niger hm11. materials and methods: centra...

background: colors make many problems and these are major sources of environmental pollution. therefore, this wastewater should be treated before discharge to environment to reduce the environmental threats. adsorption is one of the usual processes for color removal from wastewater. nanotube s are new adsorbents with extend application for adsorption of different compounds. aim of this study wa...

bacterial diseases have been reported to be the major limiting factor in shrimp production. the use of natural products such as antimicrobials has been reported as a solution to the problem. the crude extract of a red seaweed laurencia snyderiae obtained from the persian gulf was evaluated for shrimp growth performance and to determine in vivo efficacy of this seaweed in the prevention of shrim...
