After 12, 18, and 24 h of oral administration of carbon tetrachloride (as a 1:1 mixture with mineral oil: 4 ml/kg body weight) to rats, the activity of caspase-3-like protease in the liver increased significantly compared to that in the control group that was given mineral oil (4 ml/kg). In plasma,
Eighteen and twenty-four hours after intraperitoneal administration of D-galactosamine (1g/kg body weight) to rats, the activity of caspase-3-like protease in the liver increased significantly compared with that in the control group given saline. Histological examinations including the in situ
Thioacetamide (400 mg/kg body weight, i.p.) was administered to rats. After 12 h the activity of plasma glutamate-oxaloacetate transaminase (GOT) and glutamate-pyruvate transaminase (GPT) was significantly higher than that of the control group, and after 24 h plasma GOT and GPT activities strongly
We performed a randomized study on patients undergoing elective coronary bypass grafting to examine whether postoperative infusion of nifedipine (n = 25) could reduce the incidence of isolated transient myocardial ischemia, myocardial infarction, or both. The control group (n = 25) received
The hepatotoxicity of paracetamol in mice of 2, 3, 8-10, 24-26, 32-34, and 52-54 wk of age was determined by lethality data, histopathologic examination of the liver, and appearance of glutamate-pyruvate transaminase and glutamate-oxaloacetate transaminase activities in the plasma over an 8-h
Liver cirrhosis is responsible for hepatic fibrosis resulting in high mortality and is also a risk factor for developing hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), which is the fifth most common cancer in men and the seventh in women globally. Several studies have found effective anti-cancer activities of
The relations between serum transaminase activity and the hepatic contents of glutathione and lipid peroxide were examined following oral administration to rats of butylated hydroxytoluene (BHT; 500 or 1000 mg/kg). The glutathione level rapidly diminished and reached a minimum at 6 hr after BHT
Cardiac markers have progressed from measurement of enzymes such as serum glutamate oxaloacetate transaminase and creatine kinase isoenzymes to structural proteins such as cardiac troponin. The utility of biomarkers have evolved from diagnosis of cardiac injury to assessment of the prognosis of
The effects of the administration of tryptophan and/or cysteine on carbon tetrachloride (CCl4)-induced hepatic injury were investigated. Rats received CCl4 (1 ml/kg ip) followed 6 hr later by tryptophan (300 mg/kg) and/or cysteine (950 mg/kg) via stomach tube and rats were killed after 24 hr.
Male albino rats were given subcutaneous injection of isoproterenol (10 mg/100 g body wt) twice at an interval of 24 hr to induce myocardial infarction. The rats showed massive myocardial necrosis and increased activities of creatinine phosphokinase (CPK), glutamate oxaloacetate transaminase (GOT)
Titanium dioxide (TiO₂) nanoparticles are among the top five nanoparticles used in consumer products, paints, and pharmaceutical preparations. Given that exposure to such nanoparticles is mainly via the skin and inhalation, the present study was conducted in male Wistar albino rats (Rattus
CKD-712 is a 1-naphthyl analog of higenamine that has been reported to have potent antiinflammatory and thus anti-sepsis effects. The purpose of this study was to investigate the potential of CKD-712 as a medicine for sepsis and to confirm its protective effects on organs in animal sepsis models.
BACKGROUND
There is comprehensive experimental and clinical evidence that either exogenous supplementation of natural antioxidants or augmentation of endogenous antioxidants attenuates myocardial infarction.
OBJECTIVE
To investigate the effects of chronic administration of silymarin against
The present study was conducted to evaluate the hepatoprotective effect of Andrographis lineata (Acanthaceae) extracts in carbon tetrachloride-induced liver injury in rats. Male Wistar rats with chronic liver damage, induced by subcutaneous injection of 50% v/v carbon tetrachloride in liquid
This study evaluated the effect of gamma irradiation on the reduction of the toxicity of mistletoe lectin using both in vitro and in vivo models. To extract the lectin from mistletoe, an (NH4)2SO4 precipitation method was employed and the precipitant purified using a Sepharose 4B column to obtain
