Ethyl acetate fraction of () attenuates lead acetate induced testicular toxicity in male Wistar rats.

Objectives: The use of in folklore medicine for the management of reproductive disorders has been poorly reported. We sought to investigate the protective potential of the ethyl acetate fraction of stem bark extract (EFSC) on lead acetate-induced (LA) testicular toxicity in male rats.

Methods: Animals during a 28 days treatment received dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO, 0.

The use of combined high-fructose diet and glyphosate to model rats type 2 diabetes symptomatology.

An ideal food-chemical combination that will promote insulin resistance and its consequent development of pancreatic beta-cell dysfunction may open a new vista for Type 2 diabetes (T2D) research. Thus, we investigated the modulatory effects of a high-fructose diet (FRC) combined with glyphosate (GP). Male albino Wistar rats were randomly divided into five groups of eight/group and received distilled water, FRC, GP, and their combinations orally for eight consecutive weeks.

M3, a 1,4-Dihydropyridine Derivative and Mixed L-/T-Type Calcium Channel Blocker, Attenuates Isoproterenol-Induced Toxicity in Male Wistar Rats.

Recent evidence indicates that Ca dysregulation is involved in the pathogenesis of isoproterenol (ISP)-induced biochemical toxicity and associated oxidative stress. In this study, we investigated the chemopreventive benefit of M3, a 1,4-dihydropyridine calcium channel blocker, against ISP-induced toxicity in male Wistar rats. Adult rats were divided into eight groups of six rats/group.
