Background Neglected parasitic diseases (NTDs) like cutaneous leishmaniasis (CL) have caused high mortality and morbidity rate in developing countries. This disease is considered as one of the six major tropical diseases, has a great importance HIV infected individuals an opportunistic infection those areas that both infections are endemic. study evaluated therapeutic effects Urtica dioica L (U. dioica) aqueous extract anti-leishmanial herbal drug in-vitro in-vivo, addition to that, two...
Background:: One of the most important ways pathologic and non-pathologic parasites transmission is through eating raw vegetables. Iranian people believe that vegetables an way to get some essential vitamins minerals. Objectives:: According high prevalence also exporting different other provinces such as Tehran, we conducted this study evaluate parasitic pollution in Amol city. Materials Methods:: This a descriptive analytic compromised 200 samples from 10 including spinach, garden cress,...
This is the first study aiming to determine therapeutic effects of Sambucus ebulus aquatic extract as an antileishmanial herbal drug and evaluate immune responses in Leishmania major infected BALB/c mice. The activity S was evaluated using MTT test well parasite rescue transformation assay. Footpad swelling load mice were measured by several techniques. measuring levels IFN-γ, IL-4, nitric oxide arginase. results indicated that S. can significantly decrease L. promastigotes amastigotes...
To isolate and characterize the genotype of Echinococcus granulosus (E. granulosus) from goats in Mazandaran Province, Northern Iran. A total 120 were screened abattoirs Forty out samples infected with cystic echinococcosis 29 40 fertile hydatid cysts (containing protoscolices) which collected livers lungs goats. DNA extracted protoscolices characterized by mitochondrial sequencing part cytochrome C oxidase subunit 1 gene. Sequences analysis nine indicated that all isolated G1 sheep strain...
To determine the antimicrobial susceptibility patterns, frequency of integrons and associated gene cassettes in Acinetobacter baumannii (A. baumannii) strains isolated from selected hospital intensive care units. During a ten-month period, 120 A. isolates were studied. The resistance rates to different classes agents determined. PCR was used detect types cassettes. majority antibiotics tested found be between 39.3% 99.1%. No isolate observed resistant colistin polymyxin B. rate extensive...
Toxascaris leonina is an ascaridoid nematode of dogs and cats; this parasite affects the health these animals. This study estimated global prevalence Ta. infection in cats using random effects meta-analysis as well subgroup, meta-regression heterogeneity analyses. The data were stratified according to geographical region, type environmental variables. A quantitative analysis 135 published studies, involving 119,317 25,364 cats, rates at 2.9% 3.4%, respectively. Prevalence was highest Eastern...
Background: The distribution of drug resistance among clinical isolates Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae has limited the therapeutic options. aim this study was to report prevalence quinolone genes E. K. strains isolated from three educational hospitals Tehran, Iran. Materials methods: A total 100 Labbafinejad Taleghani Hospitals Mofid Children were collected between January 2013 May 2014. Antimicrobial susceptibility tests done by disk diffusion method based on Clinical Laboratory...
Background: Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) accounts for 15% of all (BC) cases and is a severe type BC. Since medicinal herbs containing biocompatible substances that are accepted by patient more than chemical therapeutics, they can be considered safe option treating Objective: This study evaluated the effect Sambucus Ebulus (S. ebulus) extract on model TNBC. Methods: S. ebulus was prepared using petroleum ether, ethyl acetate, methanol. The ether fractionated analyzed vacuum liquid...
The main objective of the current study was to investigate on cryopreservation protoscoleces Echinococcus granulosus, a causative agent cystic hydatidosis in man.This conducted isolated from hydatid cysts infected livers collected slaughterhouse Tehran, Iran 2016. Viability evaluated by dye test. Cryopreservation presence Dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO) and glycerol using three-step cooling protocol involving an initial period at -20 °C, -80 °C liquid nitrogen performed.The mean viability rate 10%...
Over the last years, vitrification has been widely used for oocyte cryopreservation, in animals and humans; however, it frequently causes minor major epigenetic modifications. The effect of on levels acetylation histone H4 at lysine 12 (AcH4K12), acetyltransferase (Hat) expression, was previously assessed; little is known about inhibition Hat expression during vitrification. This study evaluated anacardic acid (AA) as a inhibitor vitrified mouse oocytes.In this experimental study, 248...
