The aim of this study was to evaluate the anti-tumor activity grape juice concentrate following medium-term oral carcinogenesis assay induced by 4-nitroquinoline 1-oxide (4NQO). A total 30 male Wistar rats were distributed into five groups, as follows (n = 6 per group): Group 1 – negative control group (non-treated group); 2 received at 1% dose gavage for eight consecutive weeks; 3 4NQO 8 weeks 20 ppm in drinking water daily; 4 during and treated with orally first after 4-NQO administration;...
The aim of this study was to investigate if grape juice concentrate is able protect rat liver against cadmium toxicity. For purpose, histopathological analysis, cytochrome C expression and immunoexpresssion metalloproteinases (MMP) 2 9 were investigated. A total 15 Wistar rats weighing 250 g on the average, 8 weeks age distributed into 3 groups (n=5), as follows: Control group (non-treated group, CTRL); Cadmium (Cd) (Cd+GJ). Histopathological analysis revealed that from animals treated with...
The aim of this work was to test 101 strains E. coli for virulence factors associated with enterotoxigenic and enterohemorrhagic pathotypes isolated from diarrheic non-diarrheic calves. Stx1 (Shiga toxin), Stx2, Ehly (Enterohemolysin), the eae gene, LT-II (heat-labile enterotoxin), STa (heat-stable adhesins K99 F41 were detected by PCR. Serogroups determined serological methods Stx production observed biological assays in Vero cells. frequency gene higher isolates calves (35/58, 60.3%) than...
The Mimosa (Mimosa caesalpiniifolia) is a plant native from South America; it used in the traditional medicine systems for treating bacterial, fungal, parasitic and inflammatory conditions. aim of this study was to evaluate antigenotoxic antioxidant activities induced by mimosa (M. multiple rodent organs subjected intoxication with cadmium chloride. A total 40 Wistar rats (8 weeks old, 250 g) were distributed into eight groups (n = 5), as follows: Control group (non-treated group, CTRL);...
The aim of the present study was to comparatively evaluate genomic damage and cellular death in exfoliated oral mucosa cells peripheral blood from car painters. A total 24 painters 19 healthy controls (non-exposed individuals) were included this setting. Individuals had epithelial cheek (left right side) mechanically exfoliated, placed fixative dropped clean slides which checked for specific nuclear phenotypes. 5 μL collected single cell gel (comet) assay. results pointed out statistically...
The aim of this study was to evaluate the preventive and/or protective action Mimosa caesalpiniifolia (M. caesalpiniifolia) following experimental colitis in rats. rats were randomized into ten groups (n=10 per group), as follows: G1 - Sham group:; G2 TNBS group; G3, G4 -colitis and treated with hydroalcoholic extract M. 250 mg/kg/day after before/after inducing colitis, respectively; G5, G6 at 125 G7,G8 ethylacetate fraction 50 G9,G10 respectively. Rats for both doses showed lower tissue...
The aim of this study was to evaluate the chemoprotective potential grape skin extract following rat tongue carcinogenesis induced by 4-nitroquinoline 1-oxide (4NQO).Male Wistar rats were distributed into four groups (n=5, per group): Control Group: free access commercial diet and drinking water for 12 weeks; 4NQO received diluted in daily, Grape Skin Extract incorporated with + daily weeks.Animals treated revealed a significant reduction epithelial dysplasia. Also,...
