Therapeutic potential of silica nanoparticles, cisplatin, and quercetin on ovarian cancer: In vivo model.
Biochem Biophys Res Commun
January 2025
The present study evaluated the effect of silica nanoparticles, quercetin, and cisplatin against ovarian cancer. Cisplatin is a potent antineoplastic agent but has greater toxicity against cancer. Quercetin is a powerful flavonoid with remarkable anti-cancer activity due to its anti-apoptotic nature.

The objective of this study was to compare the outcome of using bacterial probiotics (Bifidobacterium and Lactobacillus) versus fungal probiotics (Saccharomyces) for acute diarrhoea among children aged 6 months to 5 years.
Methods: A non-randomized control trial was conducted at diarrhoea ward, the Children's Hospital, Lahore from 1st March 2022 to 1st March 2024.
Bisphenol F (BPF) is an emerging contaminant extensively used in the pharmaceutical, chemical, and food industries, exerting deleterious effects on human and wildlife health. Therefore, the current study was conducted to assess the toxicity induced by BPF in rohu using multiple biomarkers such as oxidative stress, activity of antioxidant enzymes, biochemical parameters, histology, and genotoxicity. Fish were separated into four groups (T1-T4).

- The fall armyworm is a serious agricultural pest that harms various crops, prompting a study on the effectiveness of native plant extracts as natural insecticides.
- Different concentrations of ethanolic plant extracts were tested on third-instar larvae, revealing significant mortality rates, especially at the highest concentration (400 ppm) compared to a standard chemical insecticide, Spinetoram.
- Analysis showed the plant extracts contained biologically active compounds, suggesting they could serve as eco-friendly alternatives for pest control, benefiting both the economy and the environment.
Article Synopsis
- Sheehan syndrome happens when a part of the pituitary gland gets damaged after a woman has heavy bleeding after giving birth.
- Symptoms can include not being able to produce milk and missing periods, and sometimes it can become serious if there are other health issues, like with adrenal glands.
- In a case study, a 45-year-old woman got very sick with a dengue infection and was diagnosed with Sheehan syndrome, which led to her needing hormone treatment to feel better.
