Interactive Atlas of the Canine Brain, Heart and Kidney Created from Plastinated Samples

Int. j. morphol; 42 (3), 2024
SUMMARY: Currently, training in the field of anatomy requires the implementation of learning and knowledge technologies (TAC). Therefore, the objective of this work was to use digital images taken of plastinated canine brains, hearts, and kidneys to create an interactive atlas that facilitates the teachi...

The Effect of L-Carnitine on Cadmium Toxicity in Liver and Kidney Tissue in Prepubertal Female Rats

Int. j. morphol; 42 (3), 2024
SUMMARY: Cadmium (Cd) is a toxic element that accumulates in kidney and liver. L-carnitine(LC) is a natural compound that has been shown to exhibit antioxidant activity. Aim of this study was to investigate the effect of L-carnitine against cadmium-induced changes in liver and kidney tissues in prepubert...

Etoposide Model-Induced Changes in Antioxidant Studies Histological and Ultrastructural Evaluations of Hepatic, Renal, and Cardiac Tissues of Male Rats

Int. j. morphol; 42 (3), 2024
SUMMARY: Etoposide is an effective antimitotic and antineoplastic agent used to treat various human malignancies. In the present study, Etoposide was injected intraperitoneally into the rats at 1 mg/kg/day for 52 days (52 doses). The control animals received physiological saline (0.5 ml) intraperitoneall...

Nefropatía por IgA con microangiopatía trombótica

Rev. méd. Maule; 39 (1), 2024
INTRODUCTION: IgA nephropathy is the most common glomerulopathy in the world, it has a wide clinical expression, from asymptomatic to rapidly progressive glomerulonephritis. The definitive diagnosis is renal biopsy, within which the IgA pattern can be identified, including thrombotic microangiopathy. CLI...

Nefropatía por enfermedad relacionada a IGG4

Rev. méd. Maule; 39 (1), 2024
IgG4-related disease (ER-IgG4) is a group of systemic fibro-inflammatory diseases, whose renal involvement is rare and difficult to diagnose. Diagnosis is usually made by serological and histological studies. Treatment is based on systemic corticosteroids. The renal prognosis is determined by the patient...

Synergistic Renoprotective Effects of Green Tea Extract and Gemigliptin against Tacrolimus-Induced Nephrotoxicity in Mice

Int. j. morphol; 42 (2), 2024
SUMMARY: Although tacrolimus (TAC) significantly reduces allograft rejection incidence in solid-organ transplantation, its long-term use is associated with an increased risk of TAC-induced nephrotoxicity. In this study, we investigated the renoprotective effects of green tea extract (GTE) with or without...
