Assessment of Biochemical and Neuroactivities of Cultural Filtrate from in Adjusting Electrolytes and Neurotransmitters in Hippocampus of Epileptic Rats.

Background: Epilepsy is a serious chronic neurological disorder, which is accompanied by recurrent seizures. Repeated seizures cause physical injuries and neuronal dysfunction and may be a risk of cancer and vascular diseases. However, many antiepileptic drugs (AEDs) have side effects of mood alteration or neurocognitive function, a reduction in neuron excitation, and the inhibition of normal activity.

Efficacy of Dietary Supplementation with L on Performance, Hematology, Blood Biochemistry and Hepatic Antioxidant Status of Growing Rabbits.

Animals fed with a high amount of a wide range of antioxidants in their diet are significantly protected against oxidative stress. Powerful antioxidant substances such as vitamin E, vitamin C, and carotenoids are present naturally in red-hot pepper (RHP). This study hypothesized that using RHP may provide protection against oxidative stress and enhance animal physiological responses.

Cytotoxicity of Trichoderma spp. cultural filtrate against human cervical and breast cancer cell lines.

Trichoderma spp. are known as a rich source of secondary metabolites with biological activity belonging to a variety of classes of chemical compounds. These fungi also are well known for their ability to produce a wide range of antibiotic substances and to parasitize other fungi.
