A spontaneous ameloblastoma of the right mandible is described in a 120-week-old female Wistar rat (strain Chbb: THOM). The tumour had a locally aggressive growth pattern and was histologically characterized by sheets and islands of odontogenic epithelium bounded by a palisaded layer of ameloblast-like cells. Because of multifocal keratinizing squamous metaplasia of the stellate reticulum tissue, the tumour was classified as an acanthomatous ameloblastoma. Cyst formation, areas of stromal hyalinization and enamel matrix-like inclusions were further characteristics of the neoplasm. The epithelial elements stained strongly positive for broad spectrum cytokeratins.

Objective: This study aims to explore the role of estrogen in providing cardioprotective benefits to premenopausal women, examining how hormonal differences between sexes influence the prevalence of cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) in women.
Materials And Methods: Eighteen female Wistar rats were equally distributed into three treatment groups. Animals in Group I (sham-operated) and Group II (ovariectomized [OVX]) received oral saline solution at a dose of 2 mL/kg.

Objective: This study aimed to investigate the redox balance in subcutaneous and retroperitoneal fat pads of male and female Wistar rats.
Materials And Methods: The study analyzed the activity and gene expression of the antioxidant enzymes superoxide dismutase, catalase, and glutathione peroxidase, along with the production of NADPH oxidases dependent on HO and gene expression of NOX1, NOX2, and NOX4.
Results: The retroperitoneal fat pad in males compared with females had greater NOX2 and NOX4 expression, along with higher superoxide dismutase activity.

Objective: Nitrate is ubiquitously found in the environment and is one of the main components of nitrogen fertilizers. Previous studies have shown that nitrate disrupts the reproductive system in aquatic animals, but no study has evaluated the impact of nitrate exposure on the uterus in mammals. This study aimed to evaluate the impact of maternal exposure to nitrate during the prenatal period on uterine morphology and gene expression in adult female F1 rats.

Background: Epoetin alfa is a derivative of the erythropoietin hormone. This study aims to investigate the epoetin alfa effect on anxiety-like behaviors.
Methods: Adult female Wistar Albino rats were divided into Control (n = 8), 1000 U Epoetien alfa, and 2000 U Epoetien alpha.
Mitigating PM Induced Myocardial Metal Deposition Through Sodium Thiosulfate Resulted in Reduction of Cardiotoxicity and Physiological Recovery From Ischemia-Reperfusion via Mitochondrial Preservation.

The cardiovascular risks linked to PM include calcification in both vasculature and myocardial tissues, leading to structural changes and functional decline. Through the selection of a clinically proven endogenous agent, sodium thiosulfate (STS), capable of addressing PM related cardiac abnormalities, we not only address the absence of effective solutions to mitigate PM toxicity, but also provide evidence for the repurposing potential of STS in ameliorating PM induced cardiac damage. Female Wistar rats were exposed to PM (250 μg/m) for 3 h daily for 21 days.
