Objective: To investigate the ability of the methanolic extract of pineapple peel to modulate alcohol-induced lipid peroxidation, changes in catalase activities and hepatic biochemical marker levels in blood plasma. Methods: Oxidative stress was induced by oral administration of ethanol (20% w/v) at a dosage of 5 mL/kg bw in rats. After 28 days of treatment, the rats were fasted ovight and sacrificed by cervical dislocation. Blood was collected with a 2 mL syringe by cardiac puncture and was centrifuged at 3000 rpm for 10 min. The plasma was analyzed to evaluate malondialdehyde (MDA), catalase activity, aspartate aminotransferase (AST), alkaline phosphatase (ALP) and alanine aminotransferase (ALT) concentrations. Results: Administration of alcohol caused a drastic increase (87.74%) in MDA level compared with the control. Pineapple peel extract significantly reduced the MDA level by 60.16% at 2.5 mL/kg bw. Rats fed alcohol only had the highest catalase activity, treatment with pineapple peel extract at 2.5 mL/kg bw however, reduced the activity. Increased AST, ALP and ALT activities were observed in rats fed alcohol only respectively, treatment with pineapple peel extract drastically reduced their activities. Conclusions: The positive modulation of lipid peroxidation, catalase activities as well as hepatic biomarker levels of blood plasma by the methanolic extract of pineapple peels under alcohol-induced oxidative stress is an indication of its protective ability in the management of alcohol-induced toxicity.

苯溴马隆是强效促尿酸排泄药,通过抑制肾脏近曲小管对尿酸的重吸收而促进尿酸排出,是治疗痛风及高尿酸血症的常用药物。该药常见不良反应为腹泻、胃部不适、恶心等消化系统症状,斑疹、瘙痒等皮肤过敏症状,以及ALT、AST及ALP升高等肝功能异常表现。苯溴马隆的肝毒性主要与其抑制线粒体β氧化及呼吸链、降低ATP合成、促进活性氧生成、促进线粒体通透性转换孔开放并释放细胞色素C诱导肝细胞凋亡有关。此外,苯溴马隆的
宫颈癌是妇科最常见的恶性肿瘤,也是危害女性生命的主要恶性肿瘤。近年来,关于抗氧化系统的研究证实,抗氧化系统的缺陷是与宫颈癌密切相关的致病因素。抗氧化剂的不足导致过多的活性氧产生,损伤了宫颈细胞。人类乳头瘤状病毒(HPV)感染是宫颈癌的主要致病因素,而流行病学研究显示,包括氧化应激和抗氧化剂缺陷在内的一些辅助因素可能促使HPV感染患者最终发展为宫颈癌。由于抗氧化治疗具有不良反应小、安全等特点,因此其
任何原因所导致的晶状体悬韧带断裂都可引起晶状体脱位,其中外伤(包括开放性或闭合性眼外伤)是导致晶状体脱位的主要原因之一,约占22%。晶状体脱位可分为不全脱位和全脱位,不全脱位指悬韧带的部分断裂,晶状体向悬韧带断裂的相对方向移位,全脱位指悬韧带的全部断裂,脱位的晶状体可进入前房,也可进入后房或玻璃体,在极少数情况下可脱至结膜下、视网膜下、巩膜下和脉络膜上腔甚至体外。需根据不同的情况选择治疗方式,手术
胰瘘是胰液外漏所引起的一系列临床综合征,诊断主要依靠引流液的实验室检查及影像学技术,而胰瘘的治疗则是临床工作的难点。近年来随着消化内镜技术的发展,主要包括内镜下逆行胰胆管造影术(ERCP)和内镜超声(EUS)引导的经体腔引流,为胰瘘的治疗提供了新的方法和思路。ERCP治疗胰瘘是通过十二指肠乳头放置胰管支架,将胰液引流入十二指肠,减少胰液对瘘口的刺激促进瘘口愈合。EUS引导的经体腔引流主要针对胰周液
