Edible mushroom () extract vs. glibenclamide on alloxan induced diabetes: sub-acute study of Nrf2 expression and renal toxicity.

The study aims to compare the action of and glibenclamide on alloxan-induced diabetes and ascertain how an aqueous extract of the edible mushroom regulates the expression of nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 (Nrf2), oxidative stress biomarkers and renal toxicity in a diabetic male Wistar rat model. Twenty-five adult male Wistar rats were randomly grouped into five groups with five rats per. Group 1 and those in the treatment groups received normal feed and water .

Combating Lassa Fever in West African Sub-Region: Progress, Challenges, and Future Perspectives.

Lassa fever (LF) is a rodent-borne disease that threatens human health in the sub-region of West Africa where the zoonotic host of Lassa virus (LASV) is predominant. Currently, treatment options for LF are limited and since no preventive vaccine is approved for its infectivity, there is a high mortality rate in endemic areas. This narrative review explores the transmission, pathogenicity of LASV, advances, and challenges of different treatment options.

Antihyperglycemic, antihyperlipidemic and hepatoprotective effects of (Miq.) Miq. supplementation in alloxan-induced diabetic rats.

Objective: Medicinal plants provide better and cheaper alternative therapy for management of several diseases compared to orthodox medicines. This study evaluated the effects of feed formulated with (Miq.) Miq.

Studies on Ethanol Extracts of Against Carbon Tetrachloride-Induced Hepatotoxicity in Rats.

<b>Background and Objective:</b> Liver disease orchestrated by noxious chemicals are serious health problems the world over. Traditionally, there are claims that ethanol extracts of leaves and stem barks of <i>Olax subscorpioidea</i> are used in the treatment of hepatic disorders. Thus, it investigated the impacts of ethanol extract of leaves and stem bark of <i>Olax subscorpioidea</i> against carbon tetrachloride (CCl₄)-induced liver damage in rats.
