The present investigation was performed to assess the concentrations of four heavy metals-lead (Pb), cadmium (Cd), copper (Cu), and cobalt (Co)-in goats reared in the vicinity of an industrial area of West Bengal, India, including soil, water, and feedstuffs; tissues of liver, kidney, lung, spleen,
The pathological changes of the aqueous crude extract of the leaves of Phyllanthus amarus were studied in 32 male rats over a period of 30 days. The animals were divided into four groups of eight animals per group. The aqueous crude extract was prepared and administered orally using a cannula to
Protective effect of ethanol extract of Piper longum Linn. against monosodium glutamate (MSG) induced toxicity was studied. Rats, orally administered with MSG at a dose of 8 mg/g body weight for 20 consecutive days, showed an increase in liver weight and rate of lipid peroxidation. Glutathione (GSH)
Objectives: To investigate the role of transient receptor potential cation channel subfamily M member 2 (TRPM2) in hepatic ischemia-reperfusion injury of mouse (HIRI) and the possible mechanisms.
Methods:
The clinical signs and lesions of Nubian goats and Desert sheep orally dosed with fresh and dry leaves and stems of Ipomoea carnea at 2.5, 5 and 10 g/kg/day were studied. The signs of Ipomoea poisoning were inappetence, depression, weakness of the hind limbs, dyspnea, staggering, and pallor of the

These studies were conducted to investigate whether ascorbic acid protected guinea pigs from aflatoxin B1 (AFB1) toxicity. Young guinea pigs, fed either 0 (AA) or 25 mg (25 AA) or gavaged 300 mg ascorbic acid (300 AA) per day for 21 days, were gavaged with the LD50 dose of AFB1 on the 22nd day.
Ponies given dried red maple (Acer rubrum L.) leaves at a dose of 3.0 gm/kg body weight became ill and died one to five days after administration of the leaves. Two clinical patterns of disease were seen. Ponies given dried leaves collected after September 15 died by 18 hours, while ponies given
For the purpose of studying nutrient digestion and absorption in the small intestine, pigs were provided with ileo-rectal anastomoses. The anaesthetic and operation method is described. X-ray examinations do not show a significant backflow of digesta into the from colon cranially open towards the
BACKGROUND
Various hepatoprotective herbal products from plants are available in Mexico, where up to 85% of patients with liver disease use some form of complementary and alternative medicine. However, only few studies have reported on the biological evaluation of these products.

Reye syndrome is characterized by acute encephalopathy and fatty degeneration of the liver almost exclusively in children. The onset is heralded by profuse vomiting and varying neurologic impairment from irritability to coma, decerebration and death. The encephalopathy must be associated with a
This paper describes the potential markers of cell death and connective tissue degradation which might serve as markers of periodontal disease activity. The first section deals with enzymes released by dead and degenerating cells. Firstly, it describes how these pass from the periodontal tissues
The toxic effects of an aqueous extract of Abrus precatorius were studied in 20 male white rats over a period of 18 days. The rats were divided into four groups of five rats per group. Those in Group A served as controls while the rats in Groups B, C and D were dosed per os with 400 mg/kg, 800 mg/kg
Male and female albino Wistar rats were exposed to concentrations of 0, 1, 10 or 20 ppm formaldehyde vapour during 6 h/day, 5 days/wk for 13 weeks. Treatment-related changes observed at 20 ppm included in both sexes: stared coats, uncoordinated locomotion and excitation during the first 30 minutes
