sesamum schinzianum/phosphatase

An early event of the decidual cell reaction in response to either natural or artificial deciduogenic stimuli is an increase in the activity of alkaline phosphatase in endometrial stromal cells. Since it is known that prostaglandins have a stimulatory role in other events of the decidual cell

Alternaria sesami causes leaf spot disease in Sesamum orientale. Conidium germination, inoculation, penetration and colonization of the pathogen on the plant surfaces were studied using scanning electron microscopy. Electron microscopy analysis revealed multiple germ tubes from conidium that spread

The present study was carried out to assess the influence of sesame oil on blood glucose, lipid peroxidation, and status of antioxidants in normal and streptozotocin (STZ) diabetic rats. Diabetes was induced in adult female albino Wistar rats weighing 180-200 g by administration of STZ (40 mg/kg of

1. Soybean meal (SBM) was replaced with sesame seed meal (SSM) at proportions of 0.00, 0.33, 0.67 and 1.00 on a protein basis in broiler diets (2 to 42 d of age). Each diet was fed to 8 replicates of 5 birds each. 2. Body weight gain, food efficiency, ready-to-cook (RTC) yield, relative weights of

The kidney has been identified as the specific target organ for in vivo exposure to an agricultural fungicide, N-(3,5-dichlorophenyl)succinimide (NDPS). The goal of this study was to determine if urinary protein and enzyme excretion were sensitive, non-invasive markers for NDPS-induced renal damage.

In China, there are many special sites for recycling and washing the used drums, which release a variety of C5-C40 hydrocarbon mixture into the soil around the site. The remediation of these contaminated sites by thermal treatment is adopted ubiquitously and needs to be assessed. Here we report the

Increased oxidative stress and inflammation in obesity are the central and causal components in the pathogenesis and progression of cardiometabolic syndrome (CMetS). The aim of the study was to determine the potential role of sesamol (a natural powerful antioxidant and anti-inflammatory phenol

The present study was designed to evaluate the effects of glucocorticoid (GC) treatment on bone turnover and bone mineral density in the growing rat. Because of the recent evidence that nitric oxide (NO) can counteract prednisolone-induced bone loss in mature rats, we examined the effect on bone of

Sesame oil is regarded as a daily nutritional supplement to increase cell resistance to lipid peroxidation. The aims of this study were to examine the effects of parenteral sesame oil on oxidative stress and hepatic disorder induced by lipopolysaccharide and to determine the defense mechanisms

OBJECTIVE To investigate the effects and the possible mechanism of sesame oil on multiple organ failure induced by lipopolysaccharide in rats. METHODS Laboratory in vivo study of the effects of sesame oil on serum aspartate aminotransferase, gamma-glutamyltransferase, alkaline phosphatase, total

BACKGROUND Sepsis is one of the major causes of death reported in intensive care units. A daily supplement of sesame oil for 1 week significantly attenuates oxidative stress-associated hepatic injury in septic rats. However, the excess intake of sesame oil may be associated with a health risk. This

We attempted to identify the total proteome in sesame lipid droplets. Results from two-dimensional electrophoresis showed 139 protein spots in lipid droplet samples. Each spot was isolated, digested with trypsin, and applied to liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (Q-Tof Premier). As a

Subcutaneous (s.c.) administration of delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol (delta-9-THC) to rabbits produced dose-related cumulative toxicity. Five groups of three New Zealand albino rabbits each received 28 daily treatments with isotonic saline, sesame oil of 15.9, 45.0 or 153.4 mg/kg/day of delta-9-THC

To investigate interactions between circulating oestrogen, high dietary fructose, and low dietary magnesium on bone mineral density and numbers of trabeculae, 10 week old ovariectomized (OVX) and sham-ovariectomized (SOVX) rats were studied. The OVX animals were divided into three groups: one-third

Diazinon (DZN) is a common organophosphorus insecticide extensively used for agriculture and veterinary purposes. DZN toxicity is not limited to insects; it also induces harmful effects in mammals and birds. Our experiment evaluated the protective and antioxidant potential of sesame oil (SO) and
