Reactive oxygen species (ROS)plays an important role in sperm motility. The physiological generation at low concentration induces beneficial effects on sperm functions and plays a significant role in sperm metabolism. Meanwhile, the excessive generation of reactive oxygen species can overwhelm protective mechanism and triggers changes in lipid and protein layers of sperm plasma membrane, which ...

Lung surfactant (LS) is an outstanding example of how a highly regulated and dynamic membrane-based system has evolved to sustain wealth structural reorganizations in order accomplish its biophysical function, as it coats stabilizes the respiratory air-liquid interface mammalian lung. The present review dissects complexity structure-function relationships LS through updated description lipid-pr...

Background: Seaweeds contain significant quantities of lipids, protein, vitamins and minerals. Aquavac Ergosan contains 1% alginic acid extracted from two brown seaweeds, Laminaria digitata and Ascophyllum nodosum. Both in vivo and in-vitro researches have mainly been focused on the effect of Ergosan on fish growth, survival rate, reproductive performance and innate immunity in blood and epider...

oral allergy syndrome (oas) is occasionally observed following consumption  of raw fruits  in  allergic adults. since this  phenomenon  was  commonly  reported  in  khorasan province of iran; we intended to check if common  diagnostic tests could be applied for differential diagnosis of oas to grapes. ige reactivity of 84 patients with oas to grape and 34 patients with oas to other fruits were ...

Background: The intrinsic heterogeneity determination in Brucella Lipopolysaccharide (LPS) is important for explaining its chemicalnature and biological behavior. This is significant for practical purposes, since LPS is the most relevant antigen during infectionand vaccination.Objectives: The purpose of the present study was to compare biochemical and immunological differences of LPS and lipid ...
