The interaction between silver nanoparticle and calf thymus DNA was studied by UV−visible, fluorescence, far UV circular dichroism (CD) spectroscopies at a physiologic temperature of 37 °C. By the analysis UV−visible titration thermal denaturation studies DNA, it found that can form new complex with double-helical increase Tm value DNA. This kind binding may cause slight change conformation fluorescence emission spectra intercalated ethidium bromide (EB) increasing concentration °C...

Objective: The objective of this study was to investigate the possible protective effects pentoxifylline as a phosphodiesterase-5 inhibitor on malathion-induced oxidative damage rat brain mitochondria. Methods: Rats received malathion (200 mg/kg/day) and (PTX, 50 in combination or alone. Alpha-tocopherol (AT, 15 used positive standard. After 1 week treatment, blood, whole tissue, mitochondria were isolated. activity enzymatic scavengers such glutathione peroxidase (GPx), catalase (CAT),...

Resveratrol has been shown to exert anti-inflammatory and anti-oxidant effects in a variety of cell types, however, its role prevention inflammatory responses mediated by palmitate skeletal muscle cells remains unexplored. In the present study, we investigated resveratrol on palmitate-induced inflammation elucidated underlying mechanisms cells. The results showed that significantly enhanced TNF-α IL-6 mRNA expression protein secretion from C2C12 at 12, 24, 36 h treatments. Increased...

Bladder cancer (BC) is the sixth most common malignancy in men and 17th women. Exosomal long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) have been defined as a novel biomarker for BC. The aim of this study to evaluate clinical significance urine exosomal PVT-1, ANRIL PCAT-1 BC patients with tumors classified T1 or T2. Exosomes were isolated from healthy donors, then characterized according their shape, size, exosome markers by Electron Microscopy, Dynamic light scattering, Western blotting. lncRNAs extraction...

Visfatin, which is secreted as an adipokine and cytokine, has been implicated in cancer development progression. In this study, we investigated the NAD-producing ability of visfatin its relationship with SIRT1 (silent information regulator 2) p53 to clarify role breast cancer. MCF-7 cells were cultured treated visfatin. activity was assessed by measuring fluorescence intensity from fluoro-substrate peptide. To investigate effect on acetylation, SDS-PAGE followed western blotting performed...

Cholesterol oxidase is a bifunctional bacterial flavoenzyme which catalyzes oxidation and isomerization of cholesterol. This valuable enzyme has attracted great deal attention because its wide application in the clinical laboratory, synthesis steroid derived drugs, food industries, potentially insecticidal activity. Therefore, development an efficient protocol for overproduction cholesterol could be beneficial this regard. The present study examined role various parameters (host strain,...

Chronic liver disease (CLD) affects millions of people and its impact on bone loss has become a subject interest. Nitric oxide endogenous opioids are suggested to increase during cholestasis/cirrhosis may resorption by different mechanisms. The receptor activator nuclear factor-κB (RANK)/RANK-ligand (RANKL)/osteoprotegerin (OPG) signaling pathway regulates resorption, but role in metabolic subsequent CLD is unknown. We aimed investigate the involvement nitrergic opioidergic systems relative...
