-Cyfluthrin-Mediated Cytotoxicity of Cultured Rat Primary Hepatocytes Ameliorated by Cotreatment with Luteolin.

The current study was designed to evaluate the possible protective effects of luteolin against -cyfluthrin-mediated toxicity on the primary culture of rat hepatocytes (RHs). In the first step, the exposure of RHs to -cyfluthrin (10, 20, 40, and 80 M) was assessed by MTT. Second, redox condition was evaluated in cotreatment of cells with luteolin (20, 40, and 60 M) and -cyfluthrin (40 M) at both medium and intra levels.

Assessment of the effect of kinetin against formic acid toxicity in chicken embryo model.

The current study was designed to investigate the in ovo injection of formic acid (FA) on hatchability rate (HR; Experiment 1) and the potential ameliorative role of kinetin concurrent with FA on biochemical parameters of hatched broilers (Experiment 2). In Experiment 1, live embryonated eggs (n = 280; Day 4 of incubation) were in ovo injected with 0.03, 0.

Protective Effects of Quercetin on Clothianidin-Induced Liver Damage in the Rat Model.

Clothianidin (CTD) is a member of the neonicotinoid group of insecticides. This study was performed to determine the effect of quercetin on clothianidin-induced liver injury (CTD) in rats. Rats were randomly assigned to a normal control (saline), a CTD control-treated group (20 mg/kg) every 3 days for 21 days, and CTD + quercetin-treated groups (2.

Ethephon causes reproductive malfunction in adult male mice: Histological and biochemical evidence.

Ethephon (CHClOP; ETP), an organophosphorus pesticide regulating plant growth, is widely used for early ripening of fruits and vegetables in agriculture. The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of ETP on histomorphometrical and biochemical parameters in mouse testicular tissue. In this study, 90 adult male mice were randomly divided into six equal groups (n = 15).

Ameliorative role of trans-ferulic acid on induced oxidative toxicity of rooster semen by β-cyfluthrin during low temperature liquid storage.

Current study was designed to evaluate the effects of β-cyfluthrin, as a toxicant substance, and trans-ferulic acid (trans-FA), as a protective agent, on different parameters of rooster semen upon liquid storage. For this purpose, semen samples of roosters (Ross 308, n = 10, 32-wk-old) were collected twice a week. Good quality samples (≥70% progressive motion) were diluted, pooled and then divided for the purposes of the study.

Quercetin attenuates H O -induced toxicity of rooster semen during liquid storage at 4°C.

Current study was carried out to examine the protective effects of quercetin against toxicity induced by hydrogen peroxide in rooster semen in vitro. Semen samples were collected from ten roosters (Ross 308 broiler breeder males, 32 weeks old) twice a week by abdominal massage method. Samples with ≥70% progressive motility were selected, pooled, diluted and used for the study.

Evaluation of linoleic acid on lipid peroxidative/antioxidative parameters, motility and viability of rooster spermatozoa during cold storage.

Sustainable reduction in semen quality due to detrimental effects of primary and secondary peroxidative products was occurred during liquid storage. The objective of the current experiment was to explore the influence of bovine serum albumin conjugated linoleic acid (LA) on the rooster spermatozoa routine tests and lipid peroxidative/antioxidative levels stored at 4 °C over 48 h. For this purpose, collected ejaculates (≥ 80% progressive motile spermatozoa) pooled and extended with the phosphate buffer medium without (control) or enriched with different amounts of LA (0.

Kinetin improves motility, viability and antioxidative parameters of ram semen during storage at refrigerator temperature.

The present experiment was conducted to evaluate the effect of kinetin on ram semen quality during cold storage. Ejaculates were collected using an artificial vagina from five Qezel rams. Ejaculates which met the criteria (volume of 0.
