Abstract Background Tissue factor (TF) is considered to be a major regulator of normal haemostasis and thrombosis. Circulating TF activity suggested associated with diabetes mellitus. Various tissues body fluids have activity. The aim the present study was investigate streptozotocin (STZ) induced diabetic rat tissues. Peanut consumption reported decreased risk type 2 diabetes. Therefore, effect peanut on STZ tissues, haemostatic parameters such as protrombin time (PT), activated partial...

Abstract The aim of this investigation was to assess the influence peanut ( Arachis hypogaea ) consumption on oxidant‐antioxidant status and lipid profile in Streptozotocin (STZ) induced diabetic rats. 32 rats were divided into 4 groups as control, control+peanut, diabetic, diabetic+peanut. Control fed standard rat chow whereas control+peanut diabetic+peanut supplemented with 0.63 g % for 12 weeks. Serum glucose levels, lipids, Glutathione (GSH), peroxidation (LPO) atherogenic index (AI)...

Saliva plays an important role in the protection of oral cavity and alterations either salivary flow rate or protein composition may have dramatic effects on health. Prevention management complications cancer therapy will improve function quality life, reduce morbidity cost care. The aim this study was to investigate saliva patients with breast biochemically cytologically compare healthy controls. Accordingly, lipid peroxidation (LPO), total protein, rate, pH levels were measured samples...
