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...

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: The most frequent sites of metastases in prostatic carcinoma are bones. Bone scintigraphy is the diagnostic tool of first choice for staging bone metastases in cancer of the prostate. But this examination is expensive and time-consuming.Therefore we are looking especially for serum parameters like alkaline phosphatase, the isoenzyme of bone-specific alkaline phosphatase, and prostat...

objectives: osteoblasts are the most important cells in the osseointegration process. despite years of study on dental implants, limited studies have discussed the effect of saliva on the adhesion process of osteoblasts to implant surfaces. the aim of this in vitro study was to evaluate the effect of saliva on morphology and differentiation of osteoblasts attached to implant surfaces. materials...

To determine whether decreased alkaline phosphatase activity in the granules from neutrophils of patients with chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML) was due to an absence of enzyme or the production of defective enzyme, we compared the immunologic properties of granule alkaline phosphatase derived from patients with CML with that of normal subjects and patients with polycythemia vera (PRV). Antise...
