Abstract
Influence of quail egg on pathologies has increased research interests and series of investigations are currently being done on its influence against these pathologies. The influence of quail egg against 2-butoxyethanol induced hemolysis and disseminated thrombosis was investigated to determine the enzymatic regulations that ensue in the amelioration of deleterious hemolytic and disseminated thrombosis displayed in female Wistar rats. Quail egg was separated into three (3) components (extracts)-quail egg yolk water soluble (QYWS) and fat soluble (QYFS), and albumen extract (QA) and the inorganic and organic compositions were characterized. Depranocytotic assaults was achieved by 250 mg/kg of 2-Butoxyethanol administered for 4 days, the clinical observation revealed a dark purple-red discoloration on the distal tails of the rats and therapeutic applications followed with 1000 mg/kg BWT of QYWS, QYFS and QA, and 15 mg/kg BWT of hydroxyurea. Morphological evaluation, haematological estimations and biochemical evaluations of the influence on the activities of sphingosine kinase-1, RNase, red cell carbonic anhydrase, lactate dehydrogenase, glutathione peroxidase and caspase-3, vis a vis the concentrations of sphingosine-1 phosphate, selenium and zinc (plasma and urine). In vitro anti-inflammatory influence of quail egg components were investigated against hemolysis and key enzymes of inflammation-cycloxygenase, lipoxygenase and β-glucuronidase. The in vitro anti-inflammatory effects of QYWS, QYFS and QA were concentration dependent from 200 to 800 μg/ml against hemolysis and the key enzymes of inflammation. The characterization of inorganic and organic bioactive composition of the yolk and albumen revealed the presence of folic acid, cobalamin, pyridine, riboflavin, ascorbic acid as well as vitamins D and E, selenium, zinc, iron and calcium. These had reflected in the attenuation of the induced hemolytic and disseminated thrombosis by regulations of enzymes linked to the infarction, apoptosis and oxidative stress characterized in sickle cell index.
