Estrogen-induced cholestasis is marked by a reduction in bile flow and the accumulation of bile acids in the liver as well as liver damage. The aim was to evaluate the hepatoprotective effect on EE-induced cholestasis in rats of Cranberry Water Extract (CWE). <b>Materials and Methods:</b> Adult albino rats weighing approximately 150±10 g were divided into six groups of six animals each. As control groups, three groups (I, II and IV) and three experimental groups were used (III, V, VI). <b>Results:</b> Oral administration for 15 days of CWE (150 mg kg<sup>1</sup> b.wt.) in EE-treated rats (100 μg kg<sup>1</sup> 5 days b.wt.) improved serum cholesterol, bile acid and TBIL as well as hepatic SOD and GPx significantly. Also, CWE inhibited ALP, ALT, γ-GT activity as well as levels of TNF-α, NO, MMP-2 and MMP-9 and MDA in comparison with the EE treatment rats. On the other hand, the liver TLR4, NF-κB and p38MAPK gene expression was down regulated group of rats administrated with cranberry extract when compared with the EE-treated rats. CWE's prophylactic action II is more pronounced than prophylactic one. The hepatoprotective effects of cranberry in restoring normal liver functional ability were also supported by histopathological examination of liver tissues. <b>Conclusion:</b> The results show clearly that cranberry extract has a strong prophylactic effect in EE-induced cholestasis by normalizing the levels of TLR4, NF-κB and p38MAPK gene expression.

Several cellular signaling pathways such as mitogen activated protein kinases (MAPKs) and RNA activating factor 1 (RAF-1) signaling cascade may be involved in H. Pylori infection. MAPKs are a type of extracellular communication that consists of a chain of proteins that extends from cell receptors to nuclear DNA. MAPK signaling is usually triggered by cell receptors attaching to epidermal growth factors (EGF), also known as the growth factor pathway or extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK). By administering HeLa cells with Sorafenib (SOR), a systemic medication for malignant malignancies, we studied the possibility of inhibiting H. pylori replication. In pretreated and infected cells, the expression of RAF-1 and autophagy related 5 (Atg5) was monitored to see if targeting these factors can disrupt H. Pylori intracellular replication. Surprisingly, the relative expression of bacterial 16s ribosomal RNA in SOR-treated cells revealed a competitive suppression of bacterial replication (16srRNA). Furthermore, SOR therapy successfully controlled the expression of the Raf-1 and Atg5 genes without causing any toxicity. In addition, SOR therapy lowered the production of tumor necrosis factor (TNF-) in a dose and time-dependent manner. These data suggest that SOR can disrupt H. Pylori replication in HeLa cells by suppressing MAPK and autophagy signaling, with minimal TNF-generation from treated cells.

METHODS: MSCs from rat bone marrow were purified using adhesiveness property of stem cells, then characterized with flowcytometer. The isolated cells seeded in neural induction medium for 4 days, Morphology and immunocytochemistry were used to identify the neural differentiation grade. RESULTS: MSCs exhibited neural network after differentiation, instead of homogenous fibroblast-like morphology before differentiation. Flowcytometric analysis confirmed the identity of mesenchymal stem cells. more than 80 percent of all population were stained positive for Tau protein. CONCLUSION : Bone marrow MSCs have ectodermal differentiation capabilities. MSCs can differentiate into functional neuron-like cells, and may be used as a treatment for neurodegenerative diseases.

METHODS : MSCs were isolated from the bone marrow of Sprague dewaly rats, and tested for their self-renewal ability and then characterized using flowcytometer. For differentiation, cells were seeded in low density for 3 monthos. The morphology observed daily and documented. RESULTS : cells propagated in culture for more than 30 passages , MSCs showed a high capacity for differentiated into adipocyte, osteocyte and neural cells after different time. CONCLUSION : Bone marrow MSCs have great differentiation capabilities. MSCs can differentiate into functional cell lines, and may be used as a treatment for many diseases.

In this study the prophenoloxidase (PPO) was activated to PO in Spodoptera littoralis by injection of series concentrations from Bacillus thuringiensis kurstaki (BT) (3200 IU/mg, AGERIN-wettable powder) 2X10 10 , 2X10 20 , 2X10 30 , 2X10 40 , 2X10 50 and 2X 10 60 cells/ml. 10 µl of each bacterial concentration was injected into groups from 10 larvae each, with a total 656 larvae. 519 of the injected larvae were live and 137 died. It was found that the stock concentration 2X10 60 was the LC20 concentration. After the injection and inoculation for 24 hrs, the larvae had been disinfected and the haemolymph separated. Purification for PO from the haemolymph had been done using HiTrapTM CM FF 1ml column. After assuring the presence of PO by SDS gel, it was cultured against six types of bacteria, two gram +ve (Staph. aureus, Enterococci) and four gram-ve (E. coli, Pseudomonas, Acinetobacter and Klebsiella). It was effective against the gram positive bacteria and against E. coli only from the gram negative bacteria. Therefore, it could be concluded that the PO has bioactivity toward the gram positive bacteria more than the gram negative ones.

In this study, 60 STEC strains recovered from broiler and duck fecal samples, cow’s milk, cattle beef, human urine, and ear discharge were screened for 12 virulence genes, phenotypic and genotypic antimicrobial resistance, and multiple-locus variable-number tandem-repeat analysis (MLVA). Results The majority of strains harbored Shiga toxin 1 (stx1) and stx1d, stx2 and stx2e, and ehxA genes, while a minority harbored stx2c subtype and eaeA. We identified 10 stx gene combinations; most of strains 31/60 (51.7%) exhibited four copies of stx genes, namely the stx1, stx1d, stx2, and stx2e, and the strains exhibited a high range of multiple antimicrobial resistance indices. The resistance genes blaCTX-M-1 and blaTEM were detected. For the oxytetracycline resistance genes, most of strains contained tetA, tetB, tetE, and tetG while the tetC was present at low frequency.

In this study, 55 isolates were recovered from 115 nasal swabs from apparently healthy and diseased cattle and humans in Minufiya and Qalyubia, Egypt. These isolates were confirmed by kmt1 existence, and molecular classification of the capsular types showed that types B, D, and E represented 23/55 (41.8%), 21/55 (38.1%), and 11/55 (20.0%), respectively. The isolates were screened for five virulence genes with hgbA, hgbB, and ptfA detected in 28/55 (50.9%), 30/55 (54.5%), and 25/55 (45.5%), respectively. We detected 17 capsular and virulence gene combinations with a discriminatory power (DI) of 0.9286; the most prevalent profiles were dcbF type D and dcbF type D, hgbA, hgbB, and ptfA, which represented 8/55 (14.5%) each. These strains exhibited high ranges of multiple antimicrobial resistance indices; the lowest resistances were against chloramphenicol, ciprofloxacin, amoxicillin/c...

The current study aimed to identify nematodes infecting small ruminants microscopically and characterizes them molecularly by using RAPD-PCR. The study was carried out on 45 slaughtered small ruminants (19 sheep and 26 goats) for microscopical and molecular diagnosis of recovered nematodes. The gastrointestinal tracts of slaughtered animals were examined by sieving method for nematode recovery. The recovered nematodes were washed, cleared, mounted and identified. RAPD-PCR was carried out on 10 samples (adults and larvae) by using 3 primers. The results revealed that the infection rate of nematodes was higher in sheep than goats. The recovered nematodes were Haemonchus contortus, Trichostrongylus axei, Cooperia sp., Ostertagia ostertagi and Trichuris ovis . The infection rate of different nematodes was recorded. Comparison between Trichuris ovis from sheep and goats revealed genetic polymorphism and genetic variability in DNA amplification using three primers. Overall, RAPD-PCR indicated genetic polymorphism and genetic variability between different nematodes and within the same species.
