The present study investigated the effects of ferulic acid (FA) on pentylenetetrazole (PTZ)-induced seizures, oxidative stress markers (malondialdehyde (MDA), catalase, and reduced glutathione (GSH)), connexin (Cx) 43, heat shock protein 70 (Hsp 70), and monoamines (serotonin (5-HT) and norepinephrine (NE)) levels in a rat model of PTZ-induced kindling. Sixty Sprague Dawley rats were divided into 5 equal groups: (a) normal group; (b) FA group: normal rats received FA at a dose of 40 mg/kg daily; (c) PTZ group: normal rats received PTZ at a dose of 50 mg/kg i.p.

- The study aimed to investigate how aluminum oxide nanoparticles impact heart functions and related factors in rats, focusing on electrical activities, inflammation, and specific heart protein expression.
- Rats were divided into four groups: a control group, a group treated with aluminum oxide, a group treated with nano-alumina, and a group receiving gallic acid before nano-alumina treatment.
- Results indicated that aluminum oxide led to heart dysfunctions and increased harmful substances in the body, while gallic acid treatment improved many affected parameters and helped reduce myocardial injury.
