Background: Bleomycin (BLM), an anticancer medication, can exacerbate pulmonary fibrosis by inducing oxidative stress and inflammation. Anti-inflammatory, anti-fibrotic, and antioxidant properties are exhibited by ganoderic acid A (GAA).

Aim: So, we aim to assess GAA's protective impact on lung fibrosis induced via BLM.

Article Synopsis
  • Quercetin, found in foods like apples and onions, may help protect lungs from damage caused by lower limb injuries, specifically during ischemia-reperfusion (IR) injury in rats.
  • The study divided 72 rats into three groups: a control group, an IR group without treatment, and an IR group treated with quercetin, assessing various biological markers to evaluate lung health after injury.
  • Results showed that quercetin treatment significantly reduced inflammatory cytokines and improved overall lung histology compared to the untreated IR group, suggesting its potential therapeutic benefits in lung protection during similar injuries.

Background: Arsenic-trioxide (ATO) is an effective therapy for acute promyelocytic leukemia. Unfortunately, its utility is hindered by the risk of myocardial injury. Both bisoprolol (BIS) and trimetazidine (TMZ) have various pharmacological features, including anti-oxidant, anti-inflammatory, and anti-apoptotic properties.

The exploitation of drought is a critical worldwide challenge that influences wheat growth and productivity. This study aimed to investigate a synergistic amendment strategy for drought using the single and combined application of plant growth-promoting microorganisms (PGPM) () and biogenic silica nanoparticles (SiONPs) from rice husk ash (RHA) on Saudi Arabia's Spring wheat Summit cultivar ( L.) for 102 DAS (days after sowing).

Stevia rebaudiana is associated with the production of calorie-free steviol glycosides (SGs) sweetener, receiving worldwide interest as a sugar substitute for people with metabolic disorders. The aim of this investigation is to show the promising role of endophytic bacterial strains isolated from Stevia rebaudiana Egy1 leaves as a biofertilizer integrated with Azospirillum brasilense ATCC 29,145 and gibberellic acid (GA) to improve another variety of stevia (S. rebaudiana Shou-2) growth, bioactive compound production, expression of SGs involved genes, and stevioside content.
