The use of plant derived herbal compounds in herbal preparations as alternative sources of medication has continued to play major roles in the general wellness of people all over the world Farombi 2003; Rajesh et al. [1], Ekor [2]. However the treatment with the extract of Zingiber officinale modulates the toxicity caused by lead acetate administration. The aim of this study is to investigate the ameliorative properties of ginger on lead acetate induced on kidney induced toxicity. A total of forty adult rats of weight 150 ± 20 g were used for this research. The animals were grouped into four (A, B, C and D) of 10 animals each. Group A-C was the treatment groups while group D served as the control. Group a received 0.4 g of Lead Acetate, Group B received 0.4 g of Lead Acetate and then 0.1g of Ginger, Group C received 0.1 g of Ginger and Group D received 1 ml of distilled water. The mode of administration was oral and the study was for 25 days after a 2 week acclimatization period. At the end of the experiment, the animals were sacrificed using ketamine and an anterior abdominal incision was performed and the kidney was excised. The organs were fixed in 10% formal Saline and processed for histology. The histological findings revealed cytoarchitectural distortion in the podocytes, dilation in the capsular space and cells with pyknotic nuclei in the distal and proximal convoluted tubules in the Group A and to lesser extent in Group B compared to normal cyto architectural photomicrographs obtained in the Group C and D. These findings thus underlined the protective effect of Zingiber officinale in Lead acetate induced toxicity as it affects ultrafiltration as well as tubular fluid reabsorption properties of the kidney.","PeriodicalId":8778,"journal":{"name":"Biochemistry international","volume":"147 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-09-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"77802786","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

As CC is a Greek word means sleep. Greek ancestors thought that, the internal carotid artery, sympathetic nerve plexus, venous plexus transmits through cc bring the sleep [2]. As CC is the large rounded foramen in the basal surface of petrous in front of Jugular foramen which gives passage for ICA. The cc is curved upwards, forwards and medially long axis of the petrous bone and opens in the foramen lacerum [3]. In recent advances of skull surgery, approaches to cavernous sinus and frontal skull base transzygomatic approach through middle skull base since ISA runs inside the temporal bone restricts the surgical procedure. Hence it is mandatory to preserve the ICA .hence if we know the sex we can predict the diameter of ICA [4]. Because in some cranial walls of the cc was found to be very thin hence vulnerable during the surgery around the clival region. Hence attempt was made to study the diameter of CC in crania of both sexes so that approaches to the cavernous sinus may save the ICA. It is also observed that 35% CC is dehiscence in the typantic cavity reminds otologist the anatomical knowledge of CC and temporal bone [5]. Moreover the study of sexual dimorphism has medicolegal, anthropological and anatomical important as metrical values of mesodermal values are uncertain.","PeriodicalId":8778,"journal":{"name":"Biochemistry international","volume":"160 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-08-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"78323718","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The problem is expected to be worse in the future [1]. This necessitates investigating the possible environmental factors, habits and food types that might be engaged in pathogenesis of pulmonary diseases, particularly during the fetal life. This of particular importance as many drugs and substances taken by (or given to) the pregnant mothers can cross the placental barrier to affect their fetuses [2]. One of such substances is monosodium glutamate (MSG) that might affect the lungs of fetal mice after exposure of their mothers to it [3]. Various developmental changes in the animals’ offspring tissues might occur following MSG treatment [4]. Moreover, the administration of MSG in high concentrations for long period of time triggers the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) coupled with impaired oxidant/ antioxidant balance leading to a state of oxidative stress [5]. The lung is more susceptible to oxidative injury than any other organ in the body because of constant exposure to air that might contain toxic particles or oxidant gases such as nitrogen oxide or ozone [6]. MSG is a well-known flavor enhancer used by both Western and Eastern populations. It is responsible for the delicious taste; and it is incorporated into a large number of solid and liquid foods. Experimental studies have established that the added MSG in foods influences palatability and preference [7]. Nowadays, MSG is commonly sold in the Egyptian supermarkets. Many Egyptians consume MSG in both ready and home-made foods, almost daily [8].","PeriodicalId":8778,"journal":{"name":"Biochemistry international","volume":"15 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-08-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"75602967","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

[1]. Nowadays the demand for (embalmed) human bodies used for surgical training, besides normal anatomy teaching, has increased. Mostly fresh frozen human bodies, donated for science, are used for surgical trainings. Its realistic tissue handling and flexibility represent the main advantages of fresh frozen human bodies. The disadvantages however are also well known: risk of infection (additional testing is essential), degeneration, time pressure and single use are only some examples. The introduction of “light” or “soft’ embalming methods like Thiel’s, Duke’s or other new method’shave contributed to prolonging the natural characteristics of the donated bodies Thiel et al. [2-8]. All of these methods have made it possible to re-use embalmed bodies for multiple purposes. It is now possible to use the bodies more efficiently because they can be used multiple times. These new methods slow down the degeneration process for weeks without losing their natural characteristics. Still these methods were not developed for long time fixation and conservation of human flexible characteristics.","PeriodicalId":8778,"journal":{"name":"Biochemistry international","volume":"85 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-07-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"84006067","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
