Introduction Xanthine oxidase (XO) is distributed in mammals largely the liver and small intestine, but also highly active milk where it generates hydrogen peroxide (H2O2). Adult human saliva low hypoxanthine xanthine, substrates of XO, high lactoperoxidase substrate thiocyanate, neonates has not been examined. Results Median concentrations xanthine neonatal (27 19 μM respectively) were ten-fold higher than adult (2.1 1.7 μM). Fresh breastmilk contained 27.3±12.2 H2O2 mixing baby with...
The prevalence of obesity and vitamin D deficiency in Saudi Arabia has increased recently. Decreased physical activity might play a role obesity. Previous studies showed an association between low level its receptor polymorphism with development.To determine men.This case control study was carried out from March 2016 through 2017. Three hundred male students (from applied medical sciences Taif University, Taif, Arabia) were classified according to BMI into lean, overweight obese groups. For...
<h3>Abstract</h3> Background/Aim: DNA methylation is the most studied epigenetic modification in cancer. Ten-eleven translocation enzymes (TET) catalyze oxidation of 5-methylcytosine (5-mC) to 5-hydroxymethylcytosine (5-hmC) DNA. In current research, we aimed evaluate role 5-hmC and TET non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients their possible association with outcomes. Patients Methods: ELISA was used measure levels genomic qRT-PCR TET1, TET2, TET3 mRNAs expression NSCLC tissues paired...
The goal of this study was to investigate the effect different phosphodiesterase inhibitors (PDEIs), on renal oxidant/antioxidant balance in diabetic rats. Our conducted 125 rats, diabetes induced 100 rats by a single administration streptozocin (STZ). Diabetic were divided into four equal groups. first group assigned as control, remaining three groups treated with pentoxifylline, sildenafil and milrinone via drinking water for 15 successive days, another 25 normal non-diabetic control....
Several safety-related accidents occur in the laboratories because of insufficient regulations, inappropriate implementation safety measures, or unawareness attitude and practices toward precautions. Thus, establishment efficient regulations safe habits workplace is crucial to prevent minimize such accidents. Here we investigate levels laboratory awareness among undergraduate medical science students workers at major hospitals Taif, Saudi Arabia.An anonymous cross-sectional survey was...
Abstract Exposure to lead (Pb) is associated with serious health problems including hepatorenal toxicity. Apigenin a natural‐sourced flavonoid promising antioxidant and anti‐inflammatory effects. In this research, we investigated the potential protective role of apigenin against acetate (PbAc)‐induced damage. Thus, experiment studied exposure male Wistar Albino rats and/or PbAc their effects in comparison control rats. administration decreased levels Pb prevented histopathological...
Abstract Lung cancer, primarily nonsmall cell lung cancer (NSCLC), is a leading cause of cancer-related fatalities globally. Due to late detection, the 5-year survival rate for NSCLC remains low. Therefore, current research aimed assess diagnostic and prognostic value serum exosomal miR-874 levels in patients. This study involved 161 patients 80 control subjects. Blood samples were collected from all participants, MiR-874 quantified using quantitative reverse transcription-polymerase chain...
Diabetes mellitus (DM) is one of the most common diseases worldwide. DM may disrupt hormone regulation. Metabolic hormones, leptin, ghrelin, glucagon, and glucagon-like peptide 1, are produced by salivary glands taste cells. These hormones expressed at different levels in diabetic patients compared to control group cause differences perception sweetness. This study aimed assessing concentrations GLP-1 their correlations with sweet (including thresholds preferences) DM. A total 155...
Sperm, Gonadotropins, Rabbit, Toxicity, Glycol ethers, LH, FSH, TestosteroneGlycol ethers (GEs) are amphiphilic solvents widely used for industrial or domestic applications.Their toxic effects on the reproduction and development of mammals have been well studied.This family presents important structural differences leading to various behaviors in terms their metabolism effects.This work aims study impact ethylene glycol monomethyl ether (EGME) gonadotropic axis semen biology rabbit,...
