introduction: hydatid cyst disease is caused by the protoscolices of echinococcus granulosus. alkaline phosphatase (alp) enzyme is required for metabolism, physiology, immunology, and nutrients absorption in parasite. the aim of this study was to compare the level of alp activity (as a pathological biomarker) in hydatid cyst protoscolices (hcp) with that of sheep liver tissue and to determine t...

the activity of mouse endometrial alkaline phosphatase after hyperstimulation and progesterone injection at the implantation time alkaline phosphatase (alp) of endometrium may play a critical function in the development and implantation of embryo. the aim of this study was to determine the localization of endometrial alp activity after hyperstimulation and progesterone injection. thirty adult f...

background: the problem of bone defects during treatments of bone lesions, especially cranial trauma, and also during craniotomy operations indicates isolation of osteoblasts and culturing them for filling these bone effects. methods: bone tissue specimens were obtained from 6 patients’ carvaria undergoing craniotomy surgery operations in al-zahra teaching hospital and transferred to lab. these...

background: the present study was carried out on the human population of kashmir valley to evaluate the status of the biochemical parameters of infected population. materials and methods: blood samples were collected from 514 individuals, 298 (57.97%) males and 216 (42.02%) females, 187 (36.38%) were found sero-positive for human toxocariasis. results: alkaline phosphatase level was found highe...

an experiment was conducted to evaluate the extracted (es) and mechanical (ms) soybean meals two levels 25% and 35% in broiler chicken feeding. three hundred and fifty two one-day-old unsexed lohman chickens were placed in four treatments by 4 replicates and 22 chickens in each in a 2×2 factorial arrangement. feed intake was increased significantly in starter period by es in comparison with ms....

objective: osteoporosis or silent disease is a major bone disorder in elderly women in current century. estrogen has an important role in osteogenesis and prevention of bone fractures. hormone replacement therapy (hrt) is usually accompanied by such effects as breast and ovary cancers. thus, there is an increasing demand for replacement with plant phytoestrogens. this study is focused on determ...

The aim of this study was to Investigate the toxic effects of chromium and cadmium on the activity of two isoenzymes of alkaline phosphatase in vitro and in vivo experiments. Oral administration and peritoneal injection of  CdCl2 or CrCl3 in rats reduced serum alkaline phosphatase by 21.5℅ and 25.5℅ respectively. At the same time high molecular weight alkaline phosphatase was elevated by 138℅ a...

background: there are some controversial data on application of progesterone and progesterone plus estrogen at luteal phase. objective: to investigate the effects of different luteal support hormones on the alkaline phosphates (alp) activity in the endometrial epithelium and endometrial thickness during superovulation process for obtaining the optimized endometrial receptivity in animal model. ...

background: collagen, the most abundant protein in the human body, and as an extracellular matrix protein, has an important role in the fiber formation. this feature of the collagen renders  establishment of the structural skeleton in tissues. regarding specific features associated with the collagen, such as, formation of the porous structure, permeability and hydrophilicity, it can also be use...

conclusions ehp was able to both reduce ldl-ch and to significantly decrease markers of oxidative stress and lipid peroxidation induced by hyperlipidemia. therefore, this herb, as a new pharmacological component, could be used to reduce certain blood lipids, lipid peroxidation, and aminotransferase markers. materials and methods thirty-two male rats weighting 200 ± 10 g were randomly divided in...
