Study The Anti-Asthmatic Activity of Guggulsterone In Ovalbumin-Induced Asthma In Rat
...Show More Authors

Asthma is a chronic in?ammatory respiratory disease associated with the changes of asthmatic airway structural that result from interact remodeling and in?ammatory processes lead to obstruction of airway. Guggulsterone (GS) is a bioactive compound and plant steroid present in  guggul gum of Commiphora wightii, which has anti-inflammatory and antioxidant activities. This study designed to investigate of anti-inflammatory activity of gugglsterone in improvement of asthma. Forty eight healthy albino male rats divided to six groups, Group I: Control group (distal water), Group II: Positive control group (distal water) with sensitization, Group III: Guggulsterone (25 mg/kg/day) with sensitization, Group IV: Guggulsterone (50 mg/kg/day) with sensitization, Group V: Prednisolone (4.12 mg/kg/day) with sensitization, Group VI: Guggulsterone (50mg/kg/day) without sensitization. Rats were sacrificed and blood samples were collected to prepare of serum samples that used in ELISA kits for measuring of IL-4, IL-5, IL-33, TNF 

IgE. In addition, WBC counts in Bronchoalveolar lavage fluid. ALL parameters (IL-4, IL-5, IL-33, TNF, & IgE) levels for rats of treated groups with gugglsterone were significant  (P<0.05) reduced in compared to sensitized group. Similarly, WBC count for rats treated groups with guggulsterone was significantly (P<0.05) fewer than sensitized group. In conclusion, our results provide a clue that guggulsterone has a potent anti-inflammatory activity that improved OVA-induced asthma and is useful for the preventive of allergic airway disease in rodents.

TECHNIQES OF SURREALISM: A STUDY IN TWO NOVELS BY THOMAS PYNCHON, V. AND THE CRYING OF LOT 49
...Show More Authors

Surrealism is a twentieth-century literary and artistic movement oriented toward the liberation of the mind. Surrealism is a reaction to the philosophy of rationalism which was believed to be the cause of the disaster of World War I. It emphasizes the expression of the imagination as revealed in dreams and presented without conscious control, the unexpected juxtapositions of objects, the withdrawal of the self, and the exploitation of chance effects.
Surrealism began in Paris in the early 1920s, as Europe emerged from the devastation of World War I. A group of writers, artists, and filmmakers, led by the poet André Breton, adopted the word surréaliste (meaning, roughly, "super-real") as a label for their artistic activities. Influen
