, a well-established member of the Umbelliferae (Apiaceae) family, is endogenous to Egypt. The main parts of this plant that are used are the fruits, which contain coumarins and flavonoids as major active constituents. The roots are usually considered by-products that are discarded and not fed to cattle because of coumarins' potential toxicity.

Design: A total of 14 healthy male albino rats were used. Seven adult rats (24-34-week-old) represented the control group (Group I).
Background: Methimazole is an antithyroid drug. It has side effects on many tissues. Bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (BM-MSCs) are promising in the field of tissue regeneration.

Design: 28 albino rats were divided into: Group I: received distilled water. Group II: received therapeutic dose of carbimazole.
Objective: To elucidate the effect of Alzheimer's disease on the structure of circumvallate papilla taste buds and the possible role of exosomes on the taste buds in Alzheimer's disease.
Design: Forty two ovariectomized female adult albino rats were utilized and divided into: Group I: received vehicle. Group II: received aluminum chloride to induce Alzheimer's disease.
