In this study, both ovaries of 60 Wistar rats (28 days age) were ectomized, and after 21 days recovery, the rats were randomly assigned into six groups and exposed to cadmium (0.12, 1.20 mg/kg), NP (100, 200 mg/kg), control (sterile PBS), and positive control (17β-estradiol) per day for 3 days, respectively, then related indexes were detected.
Sixty male Wistar rats were randomly assigned into six groups namely control, taurine alone, L-NAME alone (40 mg/kg) or L-NAME treated with either taurine (100 and 200 mg/kg) or reference drug atenolol (10 mg/kg) for 28 consecutive days.
The rats were randomly assigned into six groups (n = 8 rats/group).
Sheep were randomly assigned into six groups to receive either saline or LPS as a first event, and then either saline or "fresh PRBC" or "stored PRBC" as a second event (Table 1).
Rats were randomly assigned into six groups: sham-operated control group (sham, n=10), MCAO group (MCAO, n=40), MCAO+lentivirus-mediated LMP2 shRNA (referred to as LMP2-shRNA) (LMP2-shRNA, n=10), MCAO+lentivirus vector carrying scrambled shRNA (referred to as Cont-shRNA) (Cont-shRNA, n=10), MCAO+MG132 group (MG132, n=10) and MCAO+vehicle group (vehicle, n=10).
After 3 days of acclimatization, rats were randomly assigned into six groups, respectively, named H1 (n = 6, HA exposure for 1 day), H3 (n = 6, HA exposure for 3 days), H7 (n = 6, HA exposure for 7 days), H15 (n = 6, HA exposure for 15 days), H30 (n = 6, HA exposure for 30 days), and C (n = 6, no HA exposure, used as controls).
The women were assigned into two groups, respectively.
For this purpose, 25 adult male rats were assigned into five groups, each containing five animals.
Male Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly assigned into four groups: Control, VPA, HDN + VPA and HDN.
Thirty-seven spouses were randomly assigned into two groups: the experimental group (n= 19) and the control group (n= 18).
Heifers were assigned into two groups according to the number of follicles: low and high follicle count groups.
