introduction: the impact of chromium exposure was studied on liver, kidney, testis, spleen, cerebrum and cerebellum of male wistar rats (80-100 g body weight). material & method: it was observed that treatments of rats with chromium (i.p. at a dose of 0.8 mg / 100 g body weight per day) for a period of 28 days caused significant increase in chromium content while declining the body weight along...

background: cryopreservation of pre-antral follicles is a hopeful technique to preserve female fertility. the aim of the present study was to evaluate reactive oxygen species (ros) and total antioxidant capacity (tac) levels of mouse vitrified pre-antral follicles in the presence of alpha lipoic acid (ala). methods: isolated pre-antral follicles (140–150 µm in diameter) were divided into vitrif...

background: macrophage immune responses are affected by the secretory proteins of mycobacterium tuberculosis (mtb). this study aimed to examine the immune responses of macrophages to mtb secretory antigens, namely esat-6, cfp-10, and esat-6/cfp-10. methods: thp-1 cells (a human monocytic cell line) were cultured and differentiated to macrophages by phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate. the cytotoxic...
