Terminalia Chebula extract is used for regeneration of hepatic cells and protection of liver against damage due to its active component. This study aims to observe the protective effect of Terminalia Chebula against Paracetamol induced change of serum total protein level in Wister Albino rats. The study was carried out in the Department of Physiology, Dhaka Medical College (DMC) during January 2013 to December 2013. A total number of 44 rats, age ranging from 90 to 120 days, weight between 150 to 200 gm (initial body weight) were selected for the study. After acclimatization for 14 days, they were divided into control groups and experimental groups. Before sacrifice, final body weights of all the rats were measured. then all the rats were sacrificed on 22nd day and then blood samples were collected. For assessment of liver function, serum total protein level was done by using standard laboratory kits. The mean serum total protein level was significantly (p<0.001) lower in paracetamol treated control group in comparison to those of baseline control group. Serum total protein level of all experimental groups were significantly (P<0.001) higher than Paracetamol treated control group. From the results of this study, it may be concluded that Terminalia Chebula may have some protective effect against Paracetamol induced liver damage in rats.Bangladesh Med J. 2017 Jan; 46 (1): 11-14

Abstract Thrombomodulin plays a role as a cofactor for thrombin-catalyzed activation of protein C on endothelial cells. We examined the effect of homocysteine, a stimulant of atherosclerosis and thrombotic disease, on the cofactor activity and protein level of thrombomodulin and also on the expression of thrombomodulin in endothelial cells. Homocysteine inhibited the cofactor activity of thrombomodulin both on the surface of endothelial cells and in the whole cells dose- and time-dependently, and maximal inhibition of the cofactor activity occurred after a 3- to 6-hour incubation with 10 mmol/L homocysteine (10% of initial activity). Homocysteine also decreased the amount of intact (unreduced) thrombomodulin in endothelial cells. However, at the same condition the total protein level (reduced and unreduced form) of thrombomodulin, determined by dot immunoblot analysis using the monoclonal antibody that recognized both reduced and unreduced thrombomodulin, decreased slightly, and the mRNA level of thrombomodulin showed a twofold to three-fold increase. After 24 hours of incubation, the cofactor activity and total protein level of thrombomodulin were 60% and 165% of the initial values, respectively. When purified thrombomodulin fixed to a microwell plate was treated with homocysteine, both cofactor activity and thrombin-binding ability to the thrombomodulin were decreased in proportion to the concentration of homocysteine. These findings suggest that homocysteine directly inhibited the cofactor activity of thrombomodulin on endothelial cells by reducing the disulfide-bond rich epidermal growth factor-like structures of thrombomodulin. This would a result in the decrease of the antithrombotic property of endothelium and may also trigger off the synthesis of mRNA and protein of thrombomodulin to maintain the antithrombotic properties of the cells.

Electrophoresis Pattern

Serum protein electrophoresis pattern can assist in diagnosis of liver disease, hematological disorders, renal disorders andgastrointestinal disease. Measurement of total protein level in the serum cannot detect any disorders in patient with normal limit ofserum total protein level. The aim of this study; was to evaluate the serum protein electrophoresis pattern in patient with normal limitsof serum protein level. This research was carried out by descriptive retrospective study using the electrophoresis data from patients’medical record at the Clinical Pathology Department, Dr. Hasan Sadikin General Hospital Bandung. The data of serum electrophoresis (bySebia gel electrophoresis) were grouped based on disease or disorders, and confirmed with the diagnosis derived from patient’s medicalrecord. Inclusion criteria of samples if ; the electrophoresis data were available, serum total protein level within normal limits (6.4–8.3mg/dL), and the data of electrophoresis taken from medical record were taken from August 2006 until August 2008. The result foundso far was, there were 240 data of electrophoresis from patients with serum protein level within normal limits (6.4–8.3 mg/dL). theinterpretation of electrophoresis consist of: 1) inflammation (149 patients; 62.2% ; sensitivity 83.7%, specificity 86,5%) 2) Cirrhosis(46 patients ; 19.2% ; sensitivity 87.5% ; specificity 88.4%) 3) Nephritic syndrome (15 patients ; 6.2%; sensitivity 53%; specificity96.9% 4) Monoclonal gammophaty (15 patients(6.2% ; sensitivity 80% ; specificity 98.7%) 5) Normal pattern in 15 patient (6.2%).This study found abnormal serum protein electrophoresis pattern in the condition of inflammation, Cirrhosis, Nephritic Syndrome, andMonoclonal gammophaty. It can be concluded that many disorders could be detected in patient with serum protein level within normallimits such as: inflammation, cirrhosis, nephritis syndrome and monoclonal gammophaty by abnormal electrophoresis pattern

Objective: The objective of this study was to investigate the combined as well as individual effects of a typical antipsychotic and thromboxane A2 synthase inhibitor on albumin and total protein level with minimum and maximum dose comparison in rats. Methods: This study consisted of 100 albino rats of 300 to 340 g from both gender, there were 10 groups, each contained 10 rats (n=10). Rats were treated with defined dose of zuclopenthixol (Zuclo) and ozagrel (Ozg) for 21 days (3 weeks). Blood samples were collected at 0, 7th, 14th, and 21st days of study. Albumin and total protein level were examined from blood samples using standard laboratory procedure. Results are extracted by applying statistical analysis on data and comparing percentage variation from 0-day value. Results: A typical antipsychotic-treated group showed gradually significant increase in albumin and total protein level, TXA2 synthase inhibitor-treated group also showed significant gradually increase in albumin and total protein level in combination groups, they showed highly significant increase p<0.001 in both parameter with maximum dose. Conclusion: Combination treatment with zuclopenthixol (Zuclo) and ozagrel (Ozg) can cause large increase on albumin and total protein level with maximum dose as compare to individual drug treatment.

Stress effects from acute noise exposure were monitored in a group of ROSS 308 broiler chickens (n = 80), aged 42 days. The experiment simulated slaughterhouse sounds to which the broilers were exposed for 10 min in the test enclosure. Effects of acute noise exposure at two different levels (80 dB and 100 dB) were evaluated on the basis of examinations of selected biochemical plasma indicators and tonic immobility tests. Noise stimuli of both 80 dB and 100 dB intensities for 10 min induced a significant elevation in plasma corticosterone levels. Broilers that were exposed to noise stimuli of 100 dB also exhibited a significant increase in the cholesterol level and total protein level. Exposure to noise stimuli did not influence the glucose level and triglyceride concentrations. The duration of tonic immobility was not affected by noise stimuli in our experiment. However, noise exposure at a 100 dB level decreased the number of attempts to induce tonic immobility in broilers.
