During NMP, the assessment of liver viability may be easier because the liver is in a normal metabolic state. Bile production was a good viability indicator besides the measurement of other liver functions (detoxification, metabolism or synthesis)[176]. Recently Liu et al[177] has tested the ...
Intravenously dosed 5 from XueBiJing injection can not be transformed into the metabolites by the intestinal microflora, because the compound is quite slowly excreted into rat bile and because it is not the substrate of the intestinal efflux ABC transporters. Accordingly, pharmacologists should invest...
In contrast, data from the same genera as the tilapia whose feeding habit is similar were included. In addition, succinct information was also included on the type of pollution present in the region where the fish were collected to enhance the discussion. The comparison table data is shown in...
Pantothenic acid levels were higher in the liver of both diabetic groups, as compared to the control (L4), while pantetheine 4′’-phosphate was upregulated in the MTD group (L2), suggesting an increased synthesis of CoA with predicted impact on acetyl-CoA production. An increased generation...
Furthermore, stress is known to be associated with an increased production of free oxygen radicals, which results in an increased H+ concentration that may enhance Na+ reabsorption; water is also absorbed in this process. Glutamine is necessary to donate NH3, to couple with H+ to form urinary...
MEQ exhibited mutagenicity and was a potent inducer of DNA damage via the production of reactive oxygen species(ROS)25. Oxidative-stress was also involved in the genotoxicity induced by QCT and OLA26,27. As for the mechanism of genotoxicity, the production of ROS, includ- iQnCg Tsubpyerxoax...
forficata decoction did not alter amylase production in the pancreas or the saliva because serum amylase activities in both diabetic groups were similar both in the middle and at the end of the experiment. In the present study we detected only a tendency for serum amylase activities to be lower...
(Commode Specimen; Fisher Scientific, Ottawa, ON, Canada). After collection, fecal samples were immediately frozen at −20 °C and transported under controlled temperature to our laboratory, where they were immediately aliquoted (100 mg) into cryogenic vials (without thawing) and stored at −...
Coffee contains human health-related molecules, namely polyphenols that possess a wide range of pharmacological functions, and their intake is associated with reduced colon cancer risk. This study aimed to assess the changes in the anti-inflammatory and antioxidant activity of coffee after simulated gas...
