OBJECTIVE: We investigate the effect of Momordica charantia (MC) against ovarian ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI).

Before and/or after IR, 600 mg/kg MC were introduced to rats via an orogastric tube. At the end of the experiment, … Continue reading Momordica charantia reduced ovarian ischemia – reperfusion injury by suppressing APAF-1 expression
