The aim of this study was to examine the neurotoxicity formaldehyde on prefrontal cortex and protective effects omega-3 essential fatty acids against these toxic effects. For purpose, 21 male Wistar rats were divided into three groups. in group I comprised controls, while II injected every other day with (FA). III received daily exposed formaldehyde. At end 14-day experimental period, all killed by decapitation. brains removed tissues obtained from brain specimens. Some tissue specimens used...

This study investigated the protective effects of melatonin against formaldehyde-induced oxidative damage and apoptosis in rat testes. A total 21 male Wistar rats were divided into three groups. Group I was used as a control, II injected every other day with formaldehyde for 1 month, whereas III month. At end experimental period animals sacrificed testes removed dissected from surrounding tissues immunohistochemical evaluation. In addition, levels superoxide dismutase (SOD), glutathione...

The aim of this study was to investigate the effects quercetin and fish n-3 fatty acids on changes in testis induced by ethanol. Forty-five rats divided into five groups, control, ethanol, ethanol+quercetin, ethanol+fish ethanol+quercetin+fish acids. At end 8 weeks, all were sacrificed. Degenerative histopathological analyses, decreased body weight gain seminiferous tubule diameters ethanol group have been observed. TUNEL assay also showed an increase apoptotic cell number. activities...

One parameter which might provide an insight into the underlying mechanism of effect formaldehyde (FA) inhalation on testicular tissue, is assessment heat shock protein 70 (Hsp70), increases promptly in cells exposed to stress caused by chemical toxicity. Thus, following subchronic exposure at cytotoxic concentrations, we studied immunohistochemical FA changes Hsp70 content tissue. We used 18 albino Wistar rats divided three groups, 0 (control), 5 and 10 ppm gas for a total 91 days, 8 h/day,...

In this study, we aimed to investigate the underlying ethiological factors in chiari malformation (CM) type-I (CMI) via performing volumetric and morphometric length-angle measurements.A total of 66 individuals [33 patients (20-65 years) with CMI 33 control subjects] were included study. sagittal MR images, tonsillar herniation length concurrent anomalies evaluated. Supratentorial, infratentorial, intracranial volumes measured using Cavalieri method. Various cranial distances angles used...

Abstract The aim of this study was to investigate the effects formaldehyde (FA) gas inhalation during early postnatal period on heat shock proteins 70 kDa (Hsp70) synthesis and morphological changes in hippocampus developmental process rats determine whether reversible or not. Neonatal were exposed 0 (control), 6 12 ppm FA throughout 30 day following birth. After exposure FA, some animals from each concentration group decapitated at 30. Despite cessation exposure, other groups left for...

The aim of this experimental study was to evaluate the oxidant/antioxidant status and lipid peroxidation in heart rats exposed formaldehyde (FA) inhalation for four weeks (subacute) or 13 (subchronic) continuously.Sixty Wistar albino were divided into six groups randomly (ten each group). first second used as subacute subchronic control groups. FA gas generated from paraformaldehyde pumped a closed glass chamber. Rats atmosphere containing 10 20 ppm (8 h/day, five days per week) during...

This study aimed to investigate changes in the cerebellum of formaldehyde-exposed rats and effects omega-3 fatty acids on these changes. The involved 21 male Wistar-Albino which were divided into three groups. Group I comprised control group. II injected with intraperitoneal 10% formaldehyde every other day. III received daily while exposed formaldehyde. At end 14-day experimental period, all killed by decapitation removed. activities catalase (CAT), superoxide dismutase (SOD), glutathione...

In the literature, some articles report that incidence of numerous diseases increases among individuals who live around high-voltage electric transmission lines (HVETL) or are exposed vocationally. However, it was not investigated whether HVETL affect bone metabolism, oxidative stress, and prevalence thyroid nodule.Dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DEXA) density measurements, serum free triiodothyronine (FT3), thyroxine (FT4), RANK, RANKL, osteoprotegerin (OPG), alkaline phosphatase (ALP),...
