Experimental primary infection with Plasmodium berghei in rats is known to be influenced by several cytokines. Dietary supplementation of n-3 fatty acids has been shown to influence cytokine production capacity and to protect mice from cerebral malaria. We investigated the effect of dietary fish oil (FO) supplementation on cytokine and nitric oxide production and liver schizont development in m...

In order to optimize the micropropagation of Qare-Qat (Vaccinium arctostaphylus J.J.Sm), samples were collected from two regions of Iran (Asalem and Kelardasht). Anderson (AN) media containing different concentrations of zeatin (0, 0.5, 1, 2 and 4 mg L-1) and different levels of pH (4.5, 5 and 5.5) were compared. The in vitro shoots were transferred on AN media supplemented with zeatin (1 and 2...

At weaning or shortly thereafter, eighteen male, albino rats from six litters (Osborne and Mendel strain; average weight 39 gm.) were placed on purified diets as follows: one rat in each litter was given the unsupplemented basal diet, one was given the basal diet supplemented with SS (1 per cent succinylsulfathiazole replacing an equal amount of glucose), and one was given the basal diet supple...

Is the fetal thyroid already capable to increase its iodide uptake in response to iodine deficiency? To answer this question, we analyzed the expression of the Na(+)/I(-) symporter and several other genes in the thyroid of rat fetuses at 21 d of gestation from control mothers presenting a mild or more severe iodine deficiency. Female rats were placed on a low iodine diet, not supplemented, or s...

The present study explored the embryonic and larval development of an endangered fish species Nandus nandus and resolved larval growth performances with the dietary supplementation of different types of lipids. Fertilized eggs were collected from fiber glass tanks immediately after spontaneous spawning of N. nandus, which were fed with a 1% phospholipid (squid meal) supplemented diet for 3 mont...

The Clostridium-related poultry disease, necrotic enteritis (NE), causes substantial economic losses on a global scale. In the present study, a mixture of two plant-derived phytonutrients, Capsicum oleoresin and turmeric oleoresin (XT), was evaluated for its effects on local and systemic immune responses using a co-infection model of experimental NE in commercial broilers. Chickens were fed fro...

Background & Aim: Lemon verbena (Lippia citriodora H.B.K.) is a richly scented herb and has a long history as a sacred and medicinal plant. Select an appropriate medium in tissue culture is a necessity for success Experimental: To evaluate the effect of 10 medium of previous researches for Lippia micropropagation (1- MS medium supplemented with BAP (3 mgL-1) + IBA ...
