Hemorrhagic cystitis is a recognizable complication of cyclophosphamide (CYP) attributable to its lively metabolite acrolein, which produces urothelial injury. The study intended examine the uroprotective efficacy total ginsenosides in Chinese ginseng (TGCG) CYP-induced hemorrhagic cystitis. In total, 24 virgin female rats were randomized into four groups as follows: group 1 (control group; inj...

The effects of schistosomiasis on microsomal enzymes were studied on post-infection day 90 when accumulated damage and fibrosis are most intense but granulomatous reaction around the eggs harbored in the liver is smaller than during the earlier phases. Swiss Webster (SW) and DBA/2 mice of either sex (N = 12 per sex per group) were infected with 100 Schistosoma mansoni cercariae on postnatal day...

The cytochrome P450 enzyme superfamily (CYP), E.C. 1.14.-.-, are haem-containing monooxygenases with a vast range of both endogenous and exogenous substrates. These include sterols, fatty acids, eicosanoids, fat-soluble vitamins, hormones, pesticides carcinogens as well drugs. Listed below the human enzymes, their relationship rodent CYP activities is obscure in that species orthologue may not ...

Recent studies suggest that cytochrome P450 (CYP) epoxygenase-derived epoxyeicosatrienoic acids (EETs) elicit cell proliferation and promote angiogenesis. The aim of this study was to determine the role of CYP 2C8/9-derived EETs in the process of angiogenesis under hypoxic conditions. In human endothelial cells, hypoxia enhanced the activity of the CYP 2C9 promoter, increased the expression of ...

The aim of this study was to evaluate the prophylactic potential of hyperbaric oxygenation treatment and the timing of hyperbaric oxygen (HBO2) therapy for cyclophosphamide-(CYP) induced cystitis in rats. Forty male Sprague-Dawley rats were divided into 5 groups. Four groups received a single dose of CYP (100 mg/kg.) intraperitoneally (i.p.) at the same time (group 1 served as the control). Gro...

Objective: To study the effect of sodium sulfadimethylpyrimidine (SDMP) on different forms of CYP 450 enzymes induced by phenobarbital (CYP 2B1, 2B2 and 3A), isoniazid (CYP 2E1), benzo(a)pyrene (CYP 1A1), clotrimazole (CYP 3A), and clofibrate (CYP 4A). Materials and Methods: Chickens (Hubbard, male) weighing 250–300 g were divided into 17 groups of six each. Five experimental sets were prepared...

We explore racial inequality in relation to Black children and young people (CYP) Child Adolescent Mental Health Services (CAMHS). argue that the experience of racism should be universally considered an Adverse Childhood Experience (ACE). vicarious trauma arising from exposure frequent media reports racially motivated violence against persons ethnicity can all predispose CYP increased risk ment...

The study addressed the effect of colchicine and its derivatives on the protein levels of cytochrome P450 (CYP) 1A2, 2A6, 3A4, 2C9/19, and 2E1 isoforms. Primary human hepatocyte culture was the model of choice. Levels of individual CYP isoforms were detected using immunoblotting. Colchicine caused an increase of CYP2E1 protein content, colchiceine and N-deacetylcolchiceine induced isoforms CYP2...

Rat was used to characterize Chinese Yam polysaccharides (CYPs). In Exp. 1, maximum volume and rate of gas production in CYP 3-supplemented group were higher than other CYP-supplemented groups and control group, while pH values and NH3 contents in CYP 2-, CYP 3-, and CYP 4-supplemented groups were lower than control group. Contents of acetate, propionate and butyrate increased by supplementing ...

Drug metabolism mostly occurs in the liver. Cytochrome P450 (CYP) is a drug-metabolizing enzyme that is responsible for many important drug metabolism reactions. Recently, the US FDA and EU EMA have suggested that CYP enzyme induction can be measured by both enzymatic activity and mRNA expression. However, these experiments are time-consuming and their inter-assay variability can lead to misint...
