Amira Mohammed
Grape seed extraction has many beneficial effects on the cardiovascular system and blood pressure and has also been proven to have anti-obesity effects and/or improve fatty acid oxidation and insulin responses. The objective of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of grape seed extract on some physiological parameters in multiple systems. To this end, male mice were injected intraperitoneally with (100 mg/kg B.W) for 7 days. Serum was collected to detect the concentration of ALT and TSB (liver functions). Urea and creatinine (a kidney function) concentration was measured. Testosterone, LH, and FSH (male reproductive function) concentration were evaluated. Our results revealed a significant reduction in ALT concentration in the grape seed extraction group compared with the control group. Total serum bilirubin was non-detectable in both the grape seed extraction group as well as the control group. Urea and creatinine concentrations appeared to have no significant change between both grape seed extraction and the control group. Testosterone, LH, and FSH hormone levels were significantly raised in the grape seed extraction group compared with the control group. Prolactin hormone results revealed no change in both the grape seed extraction group and the control group. Our study showed up that grape seed extract can improve male reproductive hormones without any toxic effect on the liver or kidney.

Alaa Abed | Ali Al-Iedani | Ahmed Neamah
A common characteristic of Mycoplasma diseases is their chronicity, Mycoplasma spp. infection have been frequently associated with upper respiratory infections, chronic lung disease , asthma, meningeal encephalitis, mastitis, arthritis, heart problems, sterility, bone problems , oviduct dysfunctions and death in human and different animal species. In former years, changeable expression of membrane antigens has been detected in a number of Mycoplasma spp., resulting in the assumption that immune prevarication may be an important part of the their infection and pathogenesis. It has been determined how the attachment organelle, which mediates the complicated interactions between various adhesins and auxiliary adhesion proteins to mediate the critical first stage of cytoadherence to respiratory tract epithelium. Additionally, it has been demonstrated that inflammatory cytokines cause tissue damage by intracellular localization, direct cytotoxicity, and activation of the inflammatory cascade via Toll-like receptors (TLRs), and inflammosome activation, which causes air passage inflammation. All of these play crucial roles in the infectious process. This paper seeks to provide a thorough assessment of recent developments in our understanding of Mycoplasma pathogenesis with the understanding of its virulence mechanisms.

Orf which is commonly referred to as contagious ecthyma is a viral infectious disease that infects small ruminants. Little is known about the disease status in our geographical region. This study aimed to determine the seroprevalence of Orf virus in sheep in Basrah province, southern Iraq. Serum samples were randomly collected from 380 sheep of different age and sex groups from 4 different regions in Basrah province, which were Zubair, Abulkhasib, Shatt Al-Arab, and Qurnah. The samples were tested by ELISA for the presence of IgG antibodies to the Orf virus. Out of 380 animals screened, 98 animals were found positive for ELISA, which reveals an overall prevalence of 25.7%. There was no significant difference in the seropositivity between male and female animals. On the other hand, the seropositivity was significantly higher in lambs of the age group 1-6 months in comparison with the other age groups (6-12 months and more than 12 months). This finding indicates that the virus is highly prevalent in Basrah province as confirmed by the ELISA test.
