ESTIMATION OF PROTEINS IN PLANTS OF FORENSIC SIGNIFICANCE (RICINUS COMMUNIS AND CANNABIS SATIVA) BY UV-SPECTROPHOTOMETRY AND GEL ELECTROPHORESIS METHOD
Proteins play a significant role in living beings. In animals, where proteins are involved in the body built, the formation of tissues, organs, etc., in plants, proteins regulate the respiration, photosynthesis, growth, and reproduction. There are some proteins which are specific to the plant or a particular species of plant. Proteomics is a multidisciplinary branch of science that deals with the ...

EFFECTS OF GREEN TEA INFUSION AND EPICATECHIN ON DOXORUBICIN-INDUCED RENOCARDIOTOXICITY IN MALE ALBINO RATS
This study aims to assess the preventive effects of green tea infusion and epicatechin on doxorubicin (Dox)-induced kidney and heart injuries and oxidative stress in male Wistar rats. The male Wistar rats administered Dox at an intraperitoneal dose of 4 mg/kg body weight (b.w.)/ week were orally treated with green tea infusion (200 mg/kg b.w.) and epicatechin (25 mg/kg b.w.) every other day for 6 ...

THE HYPOXIC VENTILLATORY RESPONSE AND HEPATIC CYP3A4 UPREGULATION IN HUMAN AT HIGH ALTITUDE
The Hypoxic Ventillatory Response (HVR) at high altitude was hypothesized to cause pharmacokinetics changes, especially metabolism of drugs due to the up regulation of CYP3A4 isoenzyme. These pharmacokinetic alteration could affect pharmacotherapy, probably lead to either sub therapeutic or supra therapeutic effects. This hypothesis was studied with a pop-PK study conducted in healthy male volunte...
