The adverse side effects of prenatal and postnatal rats' exposure to silver nanoparticles Induced toxicity.

Background: Silver nanotechnology is widely applied in industry and medicine, with an increased likelihood of environmental and food contamination.

Aim: This study aimed to explore the adverse effects of orally administering silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) to pregnant or lactating female rats on adults and the development of their offspring.

Methods: Forty female albino rats were used to assess the immediate impacts of AgNPs in two separate experiments.

Maxillary neoplasms in four dromedary camels.

Four camels () presented to the Veterinary Teaching Hospital at King Faisal University with maxillary masses. On radiographs, the masses were multicystic and expanded the maxillary bone. The tumors were diagnosed by histopathologic examination as conventional ameloblastoma, two cases as intraosseous squamous cell carcinoma, and central odontogenic fibroma with ossification.

Effect of Momordica charantia on Insulin Immune-Reactive Pancreatic Beta Cells and Blood Glucose Levels in Streptozotocin-Induced Diabetic Rats.

The present study was conducted to determine the antidiabetic effect of Momordica charantia (MC) on pancreatic islets of Langerhans in streptozotocin (STZ)-induced diabetic male Wistar rats in relation to the distribution of insulin immuno-positive beta cells. MC was fed to rats at 2, 5, and 10% of the standard diet for 12 wk. After sacrification, the pancreatic tissues were obtained for histopathological and immunohistochemical observations.

n. sp. (Nematoda: Trichosomoididae: Huffmanelinae): A new species infecting the skin of the great hammerhead shark () and the blacktip reef shark () in the Arabian Gulf, off-shore Saudi Arabia.

From January 2017 - December 2019, 75 out of 850 (8.8 %) great hammerhead sharks from the Arabian Gulf had skin lesions of black irregular discolorations on the ventral surface of the head. The lesions consisted of pencil-like lineations often advancing forward by about 2 mm in back-and-forth looped scribbles often forming a relatively linear bands of about 5-7 cm wide.

Mycophenolate suppresses inflammation by inhibiting prostaglandin synthases: a study of molecular and experimental drug repurposing.

Mycophenolate mofetil is an established anti-proliferative and immune-suppressive agent that minimizes the proliferation of inflammatory cells by interfering with nucleic acid synthesis. Herein, we report our discovery of the prostaglandin inhibiting properties of MMF, which offers new applications for the drug in the treatment of inflammatory diseases. The estimated values of ICMMF, ICMMF, and ICMMF were 5.
