Present study was undertaken to evaluate the protective effect of 1,2,3,4,6-penta-O-galloyl-β-d-glucopyranose (PGG) against transient global ischemia/reperfusion (I/R)-induced brain injury in rats. Sixty minutes of global ischemia, followed by 24h of reperfusion caused significant alterations in

Polybrominated diphenyl ether (PBDE) flame retardants have been used in consumer polymers at up to percent levels. While long viewed as biologically inaccessible therein, PBDEs may become bioaccessible following volatilization or polymer deterioration. PBDEs may then enter soils via polymer

Until recently, pentabromodiphenyl (PentaBDE) and decabromodiphenyl (DecaBDE) ethers were commonly used as flame retardants in a wide array of products, mostly in the production of plastics utilized in the electric, electronic and textile industries. The aim of this study was to compare the toxicity

Spinocerebellar ataxia type 31 (SCA31) is an autosomal-dominant cerebellar ataxia showing a Purkinje cell (PC)-predominant neurodegeneration in humans. The mutation is a complex penta-nucleotide repeat containing (TGGAA)n , (TAGAA)n , (TAAAA)n and (TAGAATAAAA)n inserted in an intron shared by two
