The present study is designed to investigated the effect of prepared chemical base(R-CH=N-Ar)which consist of (camphr andglycin) on reproductive hormones of female rats.Twenty_fourwistar albino female ratsused in this study, divided intothree groups: the first group was treated orally with olive oil as a control group, the second and third groups treated orally with schiff basedissolved in olive oilat two doses (50 mg/kg and 100 mg/kg) respectively for 21 day.The result showed that Schiff base did not affect level of LH hormone in second and third groups compared with control group while, FSH level increased significantly(p<0.05) in third group only compared with the first and second group. The result indicated a significant increase(p<0.05)in level of progesterone and estrogen hormones in seconedand third groups compared with the controlgroup, also non-signficant different in levels of both hormones between second and third groups.

The role of substitution carbon defect on the structural properties and dielectric constant of monoclinic hafnium dioxide was investigated by adopting density functional theory calculations. Local vibration modes for various doping mechanisms of carbon have also included in the calculations. Results show that carbon substitution for oxygen is more energetically favorable than substitution for hafnium. Additionally, carbon has an anisotropic and divergent impact upon the dielectric constant based upon hosted site. For oxygen site, the dielectric constant achieves 4.709, whereas it decreases to 4.128 for the case of both hafnium sites. Calculated vibrational frequencies (836.09, 862.39 and 1507.64 and 1508.55) provide valuable information toward verifying the existence of carbon in m-HfO 2 .

Using the density functional theory ‘DFT’ code ‘SIESTA’ combined with a Green’s function scattering approach ‘GFSA’ code ‘GOLLUM’, we investigate the electronic properties of hetero nanotubes, density of states ‘DOS’, electronic band structure BS, transmission coefficient T(E) and current-voltage curve. We simulated four different hetero structures of nanotubes which are: 1- Hetero nanotube with one graphene ring and one boron nitride ring. 2- Hetero nanotube with two graphene ring and one boron nitride rings. 3- Hetero nanotube with three graphene ring and one boron nitride rings. 4- Hetero nanotube with four graphene ring and one boron nitride rings nanotubes. The results show that there is a clear reduction in energy gap ‘Eg’ of hetero nanotubes comparing with the insulator boron nitride (Eg 4.6 eV) and also this kind of hetero nanotubes have zero states at Fermi energy comparing with conductor carbon nanotube which has finite states at Fermi energy. This is could be a good method to design a semiconductor with desirable band gap.

The radon exhalation rate in term of area was variable (10.4-52.1 mBq.m -2 .h -1 ) with the average value (30.1 mBq.m -2 .h -1 ) while the radon exhalation rate in term of mass was variable (1.09-5.45 mBq.kg -1 .h -1 ) with the average value (3.15 mBq.kg -1 .h -1 ) and radium concentration is varied (0.144-0.722 Bq.kg -1 ) with the average value (0.417 Bq.kg -1 ). The annual effective dose of radium for three population groups was carried out, and lifetime risk assessment was about 10 -4 when used this water as a drinking water. The results compared with safe recommended limit to radium concentration and the annual effective dose of radium in drinking water according to WHO and with other countries.

The goal of current study was to actualization the protective effect of the probability of Fluvastatin hepatoprotection. Paracetamol (PCM) overdose can cause hepatotoxicity with oxidative stress as one of the possible mechanisms mediating the event. In present study, the effects of Fluvastatin(10mg/kg) and (20mg/kg) on PCM-induced hepatotoxicity were examined. Rats were divided randomly into five groups containing 9 rats each. The control group received normal saline (the vehicle). Other groups were treated with Fluvastain alone (20mg/kg), PCM alone (600mg/kg), (600mg/kg PCM + 10mg/kg Fluvastatin), and (20mg/kg PCM + 20mg/kg Fluvastatin) respectively, for 4 weeks. Paracetamol induced male rat hepatotoxicity represented by significant decline in the serum total albumin (P< 0.05). However, the study appeared significantly increment (P< 0.0001), bilirubin, ALT, AST and ALP as shown in group2 (induction group) in comparison with group1 (control group). However, simultaneous administration of fluvastatin (10mg/kg and 20mg/kg) with paracetamol, significantely was attenuated the adverse changes in the serum total albumin, bilirubin, ALT IU/L, AST, and ALP. On the other hand, the biochemical observations were supported by histopathological examination of liver sections. Where, showed marked attenuated the severity of paracetamol –induced hepatotoxicity, However, all these toxic effects were improved by administration of fluvastatin, but didn’t bring them to the control limits.

Dopamine (DA) is one of the most important catecholamine neurotransmitters in the human central nervous system in the brain and plays a key role in the functioning of the renal, hormonal, and cardiovascular systems. Abnormal release of DA will contribute to some diseases such as Alzheimer’s and Parkinson's disease. Therefore, the sensitive determination of DA becomes increasingly significant in the field of clinical disease diagnosis and the research of physiological functions. Progesterone is an essential for the development and cyclical regulation of hormone responsive tissues including the breast and reproductive tract. In the breast, progesterone acts in concert with estrogen to promote proliferative and pro-survival gene programs. Progesterone has actions in breast cancer. This paper shows a spectrophotometric method for determination dopamine and progesterone concentration in serum samples, fifty six veins blood samples collected from healthy control and breast cancer patient groups. The analytical data obtained by using UV-Spectrophotometer ( max = 250, 266 nm), linearity (0.5 - 2.0, 0.25 - 1.5 ng/ml) for dopamine, progesterone respectively. The molar absorptivity ( ), correlation coefficient (R 2 ) and limit of detection (LOD) for dopamine, progesterone ( =2.5156 10 6 , 4.1935 10 6 L.mol -1 cm -1 ), (R 2 = 0.9979, 0.99957) and (0.64, 0.57 ng/ml) respectively. The results show significant differences between the concentrations of dopamine and progesterone in control and breast cancer patient groups (p 0.05).It is fast, sensitive, selective and reliable quantification spectrophotometric method used in complex biological samples.

The molar absorptivity ( ), correlation coefficient (R 2 ) and limit of detection (LOD) for dopamine, progesterone ( =2.5156 10 6 , 4.1935 10 6 L.mol -1 cm -1 ), (R 2 = 0.9979, 0.99957) and (0.64, 0.57 ng/ml) respectively. The results show significant differences between the concentrations of dopamine and progesterone in control and breast cancer patient groups (p 0.05).It is fast, sensitive, selective and reliable quantification spectrophotometric method used in complex biological samples.","PeriodicalId":23465,"journal":{"name":"University of Thi-Qar Journal","volume":"48 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-04-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"80516694","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}
