Effect of titanium dioxide nanoparticles on the stereological parameters of the dentate gyrus and the morphology of granular hippocampal neurons in mice

Int. j. morphol; 38 (6), 2020
SUMMARY: This study aims to investigate the Effects of Titanium dioxide nanoparticles (TiO2 NPs) on the stereological parameters in the dentate gyrus and the morphology of granular hippocampal neurons in adult mice. Adult male mice (n=20, weight average: 45 g) were randomly divided into four groups inclu...

Fenugreek seed extract alleviates hippocampal dendritic atrophy in streptozotocin induced diabetic rats

Int. j. morphol; 38 (6), 2020
SUMMARY: Herbal extracts used for treatment of diabetes has focused mostly on the hypoglycaemic and anti-oxidant property.There are no studies which focused on its effect on dendritic architecture of pyramidal neurons of hippocampus caused by diabetes. This study was taken up to explore the effect of adm...

Role of ascorbic acid versus silymarin in amelioration of hepatotoxicity induced by acrylamide in adult male albino rats: histological and immunohistochemical study

Int. j. morphol; 38 (6), 2020
SUMMARY: Acrylamide (ACR) is a cytotoxic and carcinogenic material. It is a product of a Maillard reaction during the cooking of many types of fried fast food, e.g. potato chip fries, and chicken nuggets. ACR has a severe toxic effect on different body organs. This study investigates the hepatotoxic effe...

Antioxidant activity of selenium on bisphenol-induced apoptosis and testicular toxicity of Albino rats

Int. j. morphol; 38 (6), 2020
SUMMARY: Bisphenol A (BPA) is an industrial chemical widely used to make polycarbonate plastics for packaging and epoxy resins. This study sought to examine how selenium (Se) affects BPA toxicity in terms of albino rats' histological structure, antioxidant enzymes and reproductive organs (seminiferous tu...
