Abstract

Objective: Toll-like receptors (TLRs) are essential components for the induction of innate immune responses in different tissues including the small intestine, spleen and mesenteric lymph nodes. We investigated the expression of TLR2 in these tissues in mice infected with Salmonella Typhimurium. In this study we have examined how dectin-1, a lectin family receptor for β-glucans, collaborates with TLR-2 in recognition of microbes.
Methods :In this study two groups of mice were treated with the β- glucan (local and commercial extract) and infected with(1x10 6 CFU/ml) S. Typhimurium at different intervals group 1 at day zero and group 2 after seven days of the experiment .The immunohistochemistory assay has been performed to detect TLR-2 and dectine-1 in the tissues of small intestine, spleen and mesenteric lymph nodes of the mice; the principle of
this assay was done according to the manufacturer instructions (U.S.biological) .
Results: In the immunohistochemistory assay, positive cells were indicated by cytoplasmic staining and the percentage of positive in 100 cells was recorded and graded. The grades were 1+ (<25%), 2+ (25-75%) and 3+ (>75%). Statistical analysis with Chi- Square tests revealed that there were significant differences (p˂0.05) between groups, also between grades within the same group in the small intestine, spleen with TLR2 expression; also we demonstrated the same results with Dectin-1 expression in the small intestine and mesenteric lymph nodes, except in the spleen which showed that there were no any relevant differences (p˂ 0.05 ) between the groups and the cell- grades.

Abstract

The oxidant-antioxidant balance disorders underlie a number of acute and chronic diseases of the central nervous system (CNS). It is believed that oxidative stress plays a role in the pathogenesis of migraine. The study objective is to assess the processes of lipid peroxidation with malondialdehyde (MDA) as its major indicator. The study was carried out on Iraqi patients to estimate the level of lipid peroxidation in three groups include control group (41subjects), tension-type headache (TTH) (41patients) and migraine (31patients). The migraine, TTH, and control groups were significantly different on the measures of MDA. The study showed that the migranieurs were significantly different from other two groups with respect to MDA (p<0.001). No significant difference between males and females within each of the three groups (p >0.05). The only significant difference between females’ age-groups was reported between (15-27years) and (28-40years) years old-groups (according to Games-Howell test (P=0.013) while Tukey HSD and Dunnett test contradicted the exits of any differences between them (P>0.05). According to the major similarity between aged-groups for both males and females in the three groups, it can be concluded that MDA level is not affected by age.

Abstract

صممت الدراسة الحالية لتحديد الطفيليات الملوثة لبعض أنواع الفواكه والخضروات المتوفرة في الاسواق المحلية لمدينة الديوانية أذ تم
Lactuca والخس Beta vulgaris والسلق Foeniculum vulgarae جمع تسعة انواع من الخضروات والتي شملت كلاً من الشبنت
Brassica rapa والشلغم Brassica oleracea والقرنابيط Lepidium و الرشاد البري Petroselinium crispum اولمعدنوس
والعنب Morus alba اما الفواكه فقد تضمنت التوت Solanum tuberosum والبطاطه ا Lycopersion esculentum والطماطة
للفترة من شهر Citrus sinensis والبرتقال Pyrus communis والعرموط Pyrus malus والتفاح Prunus persica والخوخ Vitis
تشرين الاول 2102 ولغاية كانون الثاني 2102 وبواقع 251 غم لكل نوع.
أظهرت نتائج الدراسة الحالية ان نسبة تلوث الخضروات الكلية ببيوض الديدان والاطوار المتكيسة بلغت 11.77 % حيت تم عزل كلاً
Hymenolepis وبيوض الدودة القزمة Fasciola hepatica وبيوض ديدان حلزون الكبد Ascaris lumbricoid من بيوض الاسكارس
وبنسة 4.66 % و 1.33 % و 1.77 % و 4.44 %على التوالي كما يعد Entamoeba histolytica cyst والاطو ار المتكيسة ل nana
الخس من اكثر انواع الخضروات تلوثاً بتلك الطفيليات حيث بلغت نسبة تلوثة 26 % وقد أشارت النتائج إلى وجود فروق معنوية في نسب
اما بالنسبة للفواكه فقد بلغت نسبة تلوثها الكلية 8.66 % حيث عزلت كلاً من بيوض , P< تلوث الخضروات عند مستوى احتمالية 0.05
Entamoeba histolytica والطور المتكيس ل Fasciola hepatica وبيوض ديدان حلزون الكبد Ascaris lumbricoid الاسكارس
وبنسبة 3.33 % و 1% و 4.66 % على التوالي,وقد سجل التفاح اعلى نسبة تلوث حيث بلغت 20 % مقارنةً ببقية انواع الفاكهة.

Abstract

The study was conducted to know the effect of sediments fluvial source on some alluvial soils
properties abutting for Shatt Alarab River. Two strips were chosen the first stripe at Alharitha region which represented by pedons 1 and 2, while the second stripe at Al seeba region which represented by pedons 3 and 4. The sedimentation sources were Shatt Alarab at the first stripe while the sedimentation sources were Karun River and Shatt Alarab at the second stripe. The result of investigated soils showed varies in some morphology properties according to landscape position and the different sedimentation sources (river). There are variations in the soil color values through the Hue which was at the first stripe 10 YR while at the second stripe was 7.5 YR and different Value and Chroma between the two stripes.
Also, the dominance structure was angular blocky and this showed effect of sedimentation type and its source and sedimentation process conditions. The results of physical analysis showed sudden variation of texture has been found in both vertical and horizontal direction with dominance of clay and silt particles and decreasing in sand particle percent except the pedon 1 and 3 with horizons moderate fine texture and horizons moderate . And that dependes on sedimentation rate according to distance from the sedimentation sources (river).
