Inflammation is a protective mechanism offered by the body’s immune system after an injury, microbial infection, or any other physical chemical damage. The role of cyclooxygenase and lipoxygenase enzymes in inflammation process has been well established, research works are focused on developing plant-based inhibitors that can provide potential anti-inflammatory drugs with no side effects. Even ...

Salinity is an important environmental factor that limits plant growth and production. Grape is classified as salt sensitive plants. The object of this study was to evaluate effects of salinity on membrane lipid peroxidation, antioxidant components, and antioxidative enzymes activity in ten grape genotypes native to the regions around Urmia Salt Lake.Malondialdehyde content and protective enzym...

In order to survey effect of salinity and cadmium on catalase and peroxidase enzymes activity , proline accumulation, Malondialdehyde and protein content variation in  Brassica oleracea an experiment was conducted in green house condition factorial design based on completely random block in 2014 year. The first factor was cadmium at four levels (0, 50, 100 and 200 ppm) and second factor was sal...

Bee venom (BV) is used to treat many diseases and exhibits anti-inflammatory, anti-bacterial, antimutagenic, radioprotective, anti-nociceptive immunity promoting, hepatocyte protective and anti-cancer activity. According to the literature, BV contains several enzymes, including phospholipase A2 (PLA2), phospholipase B, hyaluronidase, acid phosphatase and α-glucosidase. Recent studies have also ...

a hydroponics study was carried out in order to understand the behavior of antioxidant enzymes, soluble protein content and its effect on cell death in different old leaves of durum wheat. two month after planting, the different old leaves were sampled and the activity of super oxide dismutase (sod), catalase, ascorbat peroxidase and guaiacol peroxidase were measured. furthermore, the rate of c...

Studies have demonstrated that plant extracts possess various biological characteristics, including immunomodulatory activity. Heracleum persicum Desf. (Apiaceae), a medicinal plant native to Iran, was studied for its immunomodulatory activity. Immunomodulatory activity of different doses of an aqueous extract of H. persicum, was evaluated in female Swiss albino mice. Mice were treated with thr...

The aim of the present study was to investigate the effects of dietary sodium butyrate on growth performance, intestinal microbiota, digestive enzymes, humoral immune responses and resistance against Aeromonas hydrophila in rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) juveniles (39.5±1.12 g). The fish were fed diets supplemented with 0 (SB0), 1.5 (SB1.5), 2.5 (SB2.5) and 5 (SB5.0) g/kg sodium butyrate f...

this study was conducted to investigate the effects of curcuma zedoaria and zingiber zerumbet on non-specific immune responses of grouper (epinephelus coioides). fish were fed an experimental diet containing 0, 0.5, 1.0, 2.5 g/kg of c. zedoaria and z. zerumbet mixed diets twice daily for two weeks. non-specific immune parameters such as respiratory burst activity, reactive oxygen species, phago...

the immune response subsides. Figure 1. Eds, 1984. Optio ns Rituale Romanum. Much effort is been invested in search of (1) different performance of classical enzymes, Binary options journal khabar new biocatalysts, and (3) synthetic molecules exhibiting the essence of the biocatalytic activity.
