Article Synopsis
- * Macrophages, particularly tumor-associated macrophages (TAMΦ), play a crucial role in the tumor environment, with different types (M1 and M2) influencing tumor growth in opposing ways.
- * Ionizing radiation (IR) not only aids in treating gliomas but also alters the behavior of TAMΦ, leading to immune suppression and potential tumor recurrence, particularly in glioblastoma multiforme (GBM).
Intensive broiler production systems face challenges like enteric diseases, impacting global food security. Strategies to enhance broiler immunity and gut health, particularly amidst antibiotic growth promoter restrictions, are crucial. The present study investigated the combined effects of fenugreek seeds (FS) and Bacillus-based direct-fed microbials (DFM) on immune-related gene expression in the ileum and alteration of microbial population in the cecum of broiler.

Methods: SRAEZZ was prepared from dried stems and roots of in a 1:1 proportion and chemically characterized. A total of 30 healthy male Wistar rats (weighing 210-280 g) were randomly assigned to six groups (control, model, capecitabine, and SRAEZZ [50, 100, or 200 mg/kg]).
Background: Approximately 20 to 120 million women of reproductive age worldwide are thought to be affected by female genital schistosomiasis (FGS). It is a preventable manifestation of schistosomiasis in adolescent girls and women, which remains underreported, underdiagnosed, or misdiagnosed, and largely untreated.
Objective: This study aimed to map evidence on the knowledge and management of FGS from 1950 to 2022 in sub-Saharan Africa.
Background And Aims: Mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) a potentially effective disease-modulating therapy for diabetic nephropathy (DN) but their clinical translation has been hampered by incomplete understanding of the optimal timing of administration and in vivo mechanisms of action. This study aimed to elucidate the reno-protective potency and associated mechanisms of single intravenous injections of human umbilical cord-derived MSCs (hUC-MSCs) following shorter and longer durations of diabetes.
Methods: A streptozotocin (STZ)-induced model of diabetes and DN was established in C57BL/6 mice.
