Utilizing Indigenous Flora in East Africa for Breast Cancer Treatment: An Overview.

Background: Breast cancer is a significant global health challenge, contributing substantially to cancer- related deaths. Conventional treatment methods, including hormone therapy, chemotherapy, surgical interventions, and radiation, have long been utilized. However, these traditional treatments are often associated with serious side effects and drug resistance, limiting their efficacy.

seed oil ameliorates Bisphenol-A-induced adipokines dysfunctions and dyslipidemia.

This study demonstrated the therapeutic potentials of seed oil (CMSO) capable of alleviating BPA-induced dyslipidemia and adipokine dysfunction. In this study, we evaluated the effects of CMSO on adipokine dysfunctions and dyslipidemia in bisphenol-A (BPA)-induced male Wistar rats. Six-week-old 36 albino rats of 100-200 g weight were assigned randomly to six groups, which received varied doses of BPA and/or CMSO.

seed oil protects against Bisphenol A-induced testicular mitochondrial damages.

There has been increasing search for the ameliorative properties of seed oils against toxicants. bisphenol A acts as an estrogenic endocrine-disrupting chemical capable of causing male infertility. This study aimed to explore seed oil effects against mitochondrial damage in rats using bisphenol A.

A world free of malaria: It is time for Africa to actively champion and take leadership of elimination and eradication strategies.

The global burden of malaria seems unabated. Africa carries the greatest burden accounting for over 95% of the annual cases of malaria. For the vision of a world free of malaria by Global Technical Strategy to be achieved, Africa must take up the stakeholder's role.

Assessment of the Antimalarial Treatment Failure in Ebonyi State, Southeast Nigeria.

The fight against malaria is a continuum as the epidemic is not abating. For proper deployment of tools in the fight against malaria, an assessment of the situation is necessary. This work assessed the level of antimalarial drug treatment failure in Ebonyi State, Nigeria.
