An Evaluation of Oral Subchronic Toxicity of Maizinol (UP165), a Zea mays Leaf Extract

Journal of Applied Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Maize (Zea mays) has been consumed by humans for millennia and represents the third most abundant crop grown globally. Maize and maize‐derived products have a long history of safe consumption from bread and other cereal products in human diets worldwide. Aside from key dietary components like carbohydrates and proteins, the corn plant contains

The Functional Epididymal Amyloid Cystatin-Related Epididymal Spermatogenic (CRES) is a Component of the Mammalian Brain Extracellular Matrix. [PDF]

J Neurosci Res
This study investigated if the epididymal amyloid CRES (cystatin‐related epididymal spermatogenic) is present in the male and female mammalian brain. CRES is expressed by hippocampal astrocytes, CA2 and CA3 neurons, and exhibits amyloid properties in the extracellular matrix.

Chronic Low‐Dose Unsymmetrical Dimethylhydrazine Exposure in Rats: Multiorgan Mechanisms and Biomarker Identification

Journal of Applied Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Unsymmetrical dimethylhydrazine (UDMH), a highly toxic rocket propellant with known multiorgan effects, requires urgent characterization of its chronic low‐dose toxicity. Using an integrated approach including exploratory transcriptomics (n = 3/group) and metabolomic (n = 4/group) approaches in male Sprague–Dawley rats exposed to high‐dose ...

Testosterone and androstenedione concentrations in human testis and epididymis during the first two years of life [PDF]

, 1983
Testosterone and androstenedione were measured in testicular and epididymal tissue of 37 previously healthy infants between 1 and 24 months of age who died suddenly. In half of the patients elevated plasma levels of cortisol and androstenedione suggested
