Vitamin C and E Supplementation Can Mitigate NaF Mediated Hematological and Hepatic Disorders in Adult Wistar Rats See

The study aimed to investigate the effect of combined vitamin E and C, on hematological and hepatic systems of adult male Wistar rats with fluoride toxicity. Eighteen rats were randomly divided into three groups such as control, treated (given NaF, 20 mg/kg bw/rat/day), and supplemented (NaF and vitamin E-200 mg/kg bw + C- 400 mg/kg bw). Altered hematological parameters like erythrocyte count, leukocyte count and hemoglobin concentration were seen in NaF groups. Estimation of osmotic fra...

Anti-Diabetic and Anti-Oxidative Effect of Aloe Vera (L.) Gel: An In- Vitro Approach See

Medicinal plants are utilized in various formulations to treat a wide range of illnesses, includig diabetes.The present study focused on anti-diabetic and anti-oxidative effect of Aloe vera (L.) in an in-vitro model. Wistar strain albino rats with less than 350 mg/dl of fasting blood glucose level on the 7th day of Streptozotocin (STZ) injection were considered for this study and left for obverting a chronic state of diabetes. On the 29th day of STZ injection, rats were sacrificed and ta...

Management of Bisphenol-A Induced Hepato-Renal Disorder in Wistar Rat by Wheatgrass Aqueous Extract Co-Administration See

Bisphenol-A (or BPA) is a renowned endocrine disruptor in current use. This study concentrated on the restorative effects of wheatgrass methanolic extract (WG-ME) on the liver and kidney in rats treated with BPA. For this purpose, 18 Wistar rats were divided into 3 groups: Control; BPA (100mg/kg); BPA+ WG-ME (100 mg/kg BPA + 200mg/kg WG-ME) by oral gavage for 28 days study period. Dissected liver and kidney were procured and stored at -20oC for the evaluation of cellular antioxidant stat...

In-Vitro Effect of Most Potent Ethyl-Acetate Solvent Fraction of Curcuma Amada Rhizomes for the Management of Diabetes Induced Male Reproductive Impairments See

Curcuma amada is employed as a medicinal herb in traditional medicinal practices. The aim of this research was to determine if the rhizome of Curcuma amada could directly improve the male reproductive system of diabetic rats. To explore whether the ethylacetate fraction of Curcuma amada rhizomes has a direct antioxidative impact on STZinduced diabetic animals, the activities of antioxidant enzymes such as catalase and superoxide dismutase, as well as the level of Thiobarbituric acid reac...
