Immunomodulatory effects of bone marrow-derived Mesenchymal stem cells on BALB/c mice model with induced Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE).

  Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is an autoimmune inflammatory disease that causes acute inflammation in most body tissues. The current study aims to determine levels of some cytokines and chemokines in BALB/c mice with SLE and treatment by using BALB/c Mesenchymal stem cells (BM-MSCs). Forty BALB/c male mice were divided into four groups equally.

L-Carnitine effect on induced hyperlipidemia on premature rats: fertility profile.

This study was designed to investigate the effect of hypercholesterolemia on the reproductive performance of premature male rats and to evaluate the influence of L-Carnitine (CAR) in maintaining their fertility. Sixty rats were divided randomly into three groups. Control group (CG n=20 rats), cholesterol feeding group 1 (CFG1 n=20 rats) fed 1.
