Therefore, in this study, the effect of this plant was investigated on skin wound healing in diabetic rats. 48 male rats under the name of Wistar race weighing 200 to 220 grams were categorized into 4 groups and each group has 12 rats in the four categories: control ...
3) a “real-life” exposure model using Wistar-rats was evaluated for further use by the scientific community in future research. Author statement Conception and design of study: Ilias S. Frydas, Athanasios Salifoglou, Dimosthenis A. Sarigiannis Acquisition of data: Ilias S. Frydas, Kermen...
Here, we employed T-pattern detection and analysis to study social interactions in ten pairs of Wistar rats tested in an Open-Field environment. We found four different categories of interactive behaviors. One of them was of particular interest to us because it consisted of behavioral events that...
The results showed that moxibustion increased the abundance of intestinal probiotics (mainly Lactobacillus) and the level of short chain fatty acids, the microcirculation blood flow around Guanyuan (RN4) acupoint was also significantly improved in elder rats. In addition, the expression of MyD88, ...
III Cancer induced rats administered orally 1.0 g of D. salina/kg body wt. IV Cancer induced rats administered orally with vitamin E (400 mg/kg body wt. orally)+Cis-Pt (600 mg/kg body wt by i.p). V Cancer induced rats received 0.9% saline only. VI Control rats administered orally ...
In this study, we examined the metabolic and gut microbiome responses to paraquat (PQ) in male Wistar rats, focusing on oxidative stress effects. Rats received a single intraperitoneal injection of PQ at 15 and 30 mg/kg, and various oxidative stress parameters (i.e., MDA, SOD, ROS, 8-is...
This work also showed that the administration of taxifolin at a dose of 100 μg/kg while taking the NO inhibitor LNAME in 11-week-old rats leads to a decrease in the level of reactive oxygen and nitrogen species in the aorta. Also, the hypotensive effect of taxifolin, due to its ...
n = 5–7 rats in each group. The vasorelaxant effect induced by lower concentrations of the SV extract tested was decreased by atropine 6µM and indomethacin 10 μM but not by L-NAME 100 µM, although none of these drugs altered the effect of the higher concentrations tested (...
