Characterization of bioactive compounds and ameliorative effects of Ceratonia siliqua leaf extract against CCl4 induced hepatic oxidative damage and renal failure in rats by Ben Hsouna, Anis

“…The in vivo results showed that oral administration of CCl4 enhanced levels of hepatic and renal markers (ALT, AST, ALP, LDH, γ-GT, urea and creatinine) in the serum of experimental animals. It also increased the oxidative stress markers resulting in increased levels of the lipid peroxidation with a concomitant decrease in the levels of enzymatic antioxidants (SOD, CAT, GPx) in both liver and kidney. …”

Parasites As Indicators Of Environmental Change And Pollution In Marine Ecosystems by Mackenzie, Ken

“…Conversely, many ectoparasites are highly resistant to environmental change and will respond to such change by increased levels of infection. As a general rule, infections with endoparasitic helminths with complex indirect life cycles tend to decrease, while infections with ectoparasites with direct single-host life cycles tend to increase, with increasing levels of pollution. …”
