The most well-known type of neurodegenerative dementia is Alzheimer's disease (AD) in elderly, an age-dependent neurodegenerative disease, proceeds at stages from mild, moderate to severe and gradually destroys the brain. Advancing age, age related diseases such as cardiovascular disease, diabetes, obesity and cancer, head trauma and exposure to heavy metals such as Al, cupper, iron and zinc are the major cause for AD. The current study was designed to explore the potent role of Salvia triloba, Piper nigrum, Ruta graveolens and Pegenum harmala in management of neuroinflammatory insults...

Obesity can be considered as a chronic disorder of energy imbalance, in which a long-term excess of energy intake over expenditure leads to the storage of that excess energy as adipose tissue. This study aimed to investigate whether childhood obesity in primary school girls affects the levels of measured hormones, peptides and neurotransmitters as well as their cognitive function and to study the relationships between the measured biochemical parameters and cognitive function in those girls. Childhood obesity represents a serious health problem. Obesity could induce a disturbance in the...

Liver is one of the vital organs of the animal body and plays a central role in transforming and clearing the chemicals, but is susceptible to the toxicity from these agents.Some chemical agents, such as those used in laboratories and industries, natural chemicals and herbal remedies can also induce hepatotoxins.The present study was undertaken to prepare yeast enriched with selenium in proper concentration to achieve a balance between Se incorporation and optimum growth and viability of yeast cells.Additionally, the study aimed at assessing the safety of chronic administration of Se as...

Hepatic encephalopathy(HE)is a severe complication of cirrhosis that is related to the effect of excess ammonia.The present study was constructed to investigate the potent role of L-carnitine, -lipoic acid either individually or in combination in management of hepatic encephalopathy in adult male rats. The aim of this study was extended to elucidate the most effective therapy against experimental hepatic encephalopathy. The present results revealed that the treatment with lactulose, L-carnitine, -lipoic acid or a combined dose of L-carnitine and -lipoic acid resulted in pronounced improvement...
