Enteral feeding with pectin has proven beneficial for anastomosis healing in rats. The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of low-methoxyl pectin (LMP) or high-methoxyl pectin (HMP), on colonic anastomosis healing in rats.Male Sprague-Dawley rats (age 7 wk) were fed liquid diets containing LMP, HMP, or no pectin (pectin-free [PF]) for 14 d (n = 10/group). The rats underwent colonic anastomosis...
Purpose To compare oral rehydration solution (ORS) with saline infusion for preventing contrast-induced nephropathy (CIN) in a rat model. Materials and methods Adult male Sprague–Dawley rats (310–360 g) received intravenous indomethacin (10 mg/kg), NG-nitro-l-arginine methyl ester (10 mg/kg), and iohexol (10 mL/kg) to induce acute contrast-induced renal injury (CIN group); control rats received...
Hypoglycemia sometimes occurs in patients with diabetes mellitus who receive excessive doses of insulin. Severe hypoglycemia has been known to induce mitochondrial swelling followed by neuronal death in the brain. Since l-carnitine effectively preserves mitochondrial function in various cells both in vitro and in vivo, we investigated its effects on the neuronal damage induced by hypoglycemic insult...
