the present study was conducted to test the effect of origanum majoranum extract (ome) of leaves on alterations induced in a model of type 2 diabetic rats. adult male wistar rats were fed high fat diet for 3 weeks and injected a single dose of streptozotocin (35 mg/kg) intraperitoneally to induce type 2 diabetic rats. diabetic rats were given aqueous extract of ome in a dose of 20 mg/kg orally ...

Objective(s): Chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML) is a chronic myeloproliferative disorder characterized by the accumulation of myeloid cells with a chromosomal translocation known as the Philadelphia chromosome. In this study, we investigated the roles of miR-570 in CML development. Materials and Methods: Expression of miR-570 in CML samples and cell lines was determined by qRT-PCR. Glucose upt...

the study on biochemical changes in brain tissue indicates that there are considerable variations in metabolism of energy in this tissue within the first three weeks of life. this phenomenon coincides with the increase of brain energy during that period of life. there are, indeed, various factors, involved in the changing process. hormones and thyroid hormones in particular are of the most impo...

introduction: many of the diseases of adulthood are originated from the intrauterine conditions during fetal life. because of the importance of thyroid hormones in growth and development of the fetus, the effects of maternal hypothyroidism on carbohydrate metabolism in adulthood was investigated. methods: pregnant rats were divided into the fetal hypothyroidism (fh) and the control (c) groups. ...
