Biochemical and molecular mechanisms of N-acetyl cysteine and silymarin-mediated protection against maneb- and paraquat-induced hepatotoxicity in rats

TL;DR: It is suggested that NAC and SIL protect MB and/or PQ-induced hepatotoxicity by reducing oxidative stress, inflammation and by modulating xenobitic metabolizing machinery and SIL seems to be more effective.
Journal ArticleDOI

The involvement of nitric oxide in maneb- and paraquat-induced oxidative stress in rat polymorphonuclear leukocytes.

TL;DR: The results suggest that MB and/or PQ induce iNOS-mediated nitric oxide production, which in turn increases MPO activity and lipid peroxidation, thereby oxidative stress.
Journal ArticleDOI

Effect of zinc and paraquat co-exposure on neurodegeneration: Modulation of oxidative stress and expression of metallothioneins, toxicant responsive and transporter genes in rats.

TL;DR: The results obtained suggest that, similar to PQ, Zn induced neurodegeneration via alterations in oxidative stress and expression of the above-mentioned genes, however, the effect of Zn+PQ was only slightly higher than that of alone, indicating that probably Zn and PQ follow some different molecular events leading to neurodegenersation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Involvement of NADPH oxidase and glutathione in zinc-induced dopaminergic neurodegeneration in rats: Similarity with paraquat neurotoxicity

TL;DR: It is suggested that Zn induces oxidative stress via the activation of NADPH oxidase and depletion of GSH, which in turn activate the apoptotic machinery leading to dopaminergic neurodegeneration similar to PQ.
Journal ArticleDOI

Certain integrals for classes of p -valent meromorphic functions

TL;DR: In this article, the authors introduced two classes of functions regular and p-valent in D − {0} where D = {z : |z| < 1} and showed that, for suitable choices of real constants α, β and γ, the integral operators of the form map into, where is the class of pvalent meromorphically starlike functions of order ρ, 0 ≤ ρ < 1.
