grape seed proanthocyanidin extract (gspe) has a broad spectrum of biologic properties against oxidative stress. this study aimed to investigate the effects of gspe on biochemical factors and antioxidant enzymes of erythrocyte in diabetic rats. diabetes was induced through single injection of streptozotocin (50 mg.kg-1, i.p). forty male sprague-dawley rats were divided into four groups: group 1...

background: lead is the oldest known toxic metal, physiologically and biologically harmful to living creatures. this study aimed to evaluate the lead accumulation in the liver and breast muscles of japanese quail (coturnix japonica) and to compare concentrations in both sexes and its effect on blood biochemical factors. methods: twenty-four young farm japanese quails (25 day old) prepared from ...

Introduction: The long time use of opium has some effects on serums biochemical factors, the determination of this variation is a new approach in understanding off addiction and relive of drug abuser health. Hence in this study, these indicators in person who were withdrawing of opium have been studied. Materials and Methods: In this cross-sectional study bloods biochemical factors such as fast...

the present study was conducted to investigate the clinical effects and possible side effects of yarrow extract ( achillea millefolium l.) as feed additive on biochemical blood parameters and growth performance of rainbow trout ( oncorhynchus mykiss ). fishes were treated with 0 (control), 0.1, 0.5 and 1% of yarrow extract for 30 days. plasma alanine aminotransferase (alt), aspartate aminotrans...

Proteins inherently are not designed to be standalone entities. Whether it is a multi-step biochemical reaction or a signaling event that triggers several other cascading events, proteins are naturally designed to function cohesively. Several natural systems have been developed through evolution to co-localize the functional proteins of the same pathway in order to ensure efficient communicatio...

introduction: hunger and reduction in regular energy intake can lead to a number of problems based on their intensity. for instance, low energy level can cause blood cell production to decline or it may pose a higher risk of anemia. it can also weaken the immune system and platelet aggregation or negatively affect clot formation. this study aimed to have a closer look at fasting and regular phy...

the relationship between leptin, adiponectin, ghrelin, homocysteine, insulin resistance and other biochemical factors in women with polycystic ovary syndrome (pcos) is controversial. we review how the expanded role of these factors in reproduction might impact our understanding of pcos. for purposes of our review, we accessed the pubmed database during the past 10 years. our review confirms tha...

conclusions according to the results of this study, effect of biochemical interfering factors on test results of impedance cell counter must be considered in clinical laboratories. results comparison between case and control groups revealed that uremia caused significant increase in mcv and rdw levels (p < 0.05) and had no effect on mch level (p > 0.05). both hyperglycemia and hyperlipemia caus...
