Moderate-intensity Exercise Training in Sole and Simultaneous Forms with Insulin Ameliorates the Experimental Type 1 Diabetes-induced Intrinsic Apoptosis in Testicular Tissue.

The aim of this study was to investigate the ameliorative effect of moderate-intensity exercise training in sole and simultaneous forms with insulin on experimental type 1 diabetes (T1D)-induced apoptosis. A total of 36 mature male Wistar rats were divided into six equally sized groups, including sedentary control (Con), moderate-intensity exercise training (E-sole), sedentary T1D-induced (D-sole), moderate-exercise-trained T1D-induced (DE), insulin-treated sedentary T1D-induced (DI) and exercise-trained, and insulin-treated T1D-induced (DEI) groups. The 6-week exercise training intervention was involved 30 min of moderate-intensity running on a treadmill once daily (5 days/week).

Acute Interstitial Nephritis Induced by Citrullus Colocynthis.

Acute interstitial nephritis (AIN) is known as a common cause of acute kidney injury, found in 15% to 27% of kidney biopsies. Drug-induced AIN is currently the most common cause of AIN. The most common medications causing AIN are antibiotics and nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs.

Study of the mutagenicity of "Hypiran" and "Sankol" in human blood cells and comparison with hydrogen peroxide by single cell gel electrophoresis (SCGE) or comet assay.

Due to the increased use and availability of herbal medicinal products, it has been necessary to perform investigations pertaining to their toxicological safety. The aim of this study was to use the rapid and sensitive technique of Single Cell Gel Electrophoresis (SCGE) or "Comet Assay" to assess the mutagenic potential of two such products: "Hypiran" and "Sankol." The results were compared against positive (hydrogen peroxide) and negative (no mutagen) control groups.
