Abstract

Liver ischemia-reperfusion (IR) injury is a situation which occurs in various conditions such as pringle maneuver and liver transplantation. The regulatory effect of zinc sulfate (ZnSO4) is an important trace element on several liver disorders well known, but its effects on microRNAS (miR-122 and miR-34a) have not been evaluated. The goal of this study was to identify the protective effects of ZnSO4 on IR-induced liver injury, in particular, microRNAS in rats. Thirty-two male Wistar rats were randomly assigned into four groups (eight each group): sham, IR, ZnSO4 pretreatment, and ZnSO4 + IR groups. In sham and ZnSO4 pretreatment groups, animals received normal saline (N/S, 2 ml/kg) and ZnSO4 (5 mg/kg) for 7 consecutive days intraperitoneally (ip), then only laparotomy was performed. In IR and ZnSO4 + IR groups, N/S and ZnSO4, respectively, were given with the same dose, time, and route, before induction of ischemia for 45 min followed by reperfusion for 60 min. Blood sample was taken for biochemical and microRNAs analysis. Tissue specimens also were obtained for the measurements of antioxidant activities and histopathological evaluations. Our results showed that ZnSO4 pretreatment ameliorated histopathological changes decreased...Continue Reading

Anemia

Anemia develops when your blood lacks enough healthy red blood cells. Anemia of inflammation (AI, also called anemia of chronic disease) is a common, typically normocytic, normochromic anemia that is caused by an underlying inflammatory disease. Here is the latest research on anemia.

Blood And Marrow Transplantation

The use of hematopoietic stem cell transplantation or blood and marrow transplantation (bmt) is on the increase worldwide. BMT is used to replace damaged or destroyed bone marrow with healthy bone marrow stem cells. Here is the latest research on bone and marrow transplantation.
