This study was designed to identify the presence of cytochrome oxidase p450 (CYP3A4), in the hepatic cell lines which was generated from the in vitro differentiation of mouse bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells. Bone marrow meenchymal stem cells were first isolated by collecting both the femur and tibia of the mouse thigh bone, then exess tissue wer...

This study was designed to generate hepatocyte cells from mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) isolated from mouse bone marrow via using culturing protocols for this goal. Cells of MSCs were isolated by collecting the thigh bone of 50 albino mice, both femur and tibia were collected and cells were flushed from bones and MSCs have been isolated based on th...

This study was designed to evaluate the immunological effect of viable and heat killed Lactobacillus acidophilus in mice infected with Salmonella typhimurium. The immunological parameters were total and absolute counts of leucocytes and phagocytic index of peritoneal cells. Twelve mice were divided into four groups. Each group consists of 3 mice. G...

This study was designed to investigate the ability of Lactobacillus plantarum as hepatoprotective microorganism against Salmonella typhimurium in mice. Twelve albino mice were divided into 4 groups designated as CC, PC, SC and PS. Each group consisted of 3 mice, and was subjected to the following treatments; CC; this group was used as a control. PC...
