We previously demonstrated that the anti-apoptosis protein, survivin, plays a protective role against alcohol-induced gastric injury. Since the endothelium is a primary target of alcohol-induced gastric damage, we investigated whether survivin expression is a key factor in the greater susceptibility of gastric endothelial vs. epithelial cells to alcohol-induced injury. Here, we demonstrate that rat...
The study was performed on 16 albino Wistar female rats divided into two equal groups: experimental and control. The rats from the experimental group received per os, every second day for 2 weeks 40 mg/kg b.w. of L-arginine. The rats from the control group received, in the same manner, 2 ml of distilled water. The animals were decapitated after 3 weeks of the experiment. After decapitation specimens...
In previous papers, we noticed that adriamycin given to female rats before their planned pregnancy has a delaying effect under the form of apoptosis for foetal hepatocytes. The purpose of present study was for a quantitative assessment of foetal renal tubular epithelial cells, as an effect means of delaying adriamycin action (apoptotic index). Expression of effector caspase 3 was also assessed. In...
