Article Synopsis
- The study investigates the effects of ibuprofen phonophoresis combined with gold nanoparticles on muscle repair after traumatic injury in a rat model.
- Eight groups of male Wistar rats were created, with one group receiving the combination of therapeutic pulsed ultrasound, ibuprofen, and gold nanoparticles, which demonstrated significant improvements in inflammation and pain compared to the muscle injury group.
- Results showed this treatment reduced pro-inflammatory cytokines and oxidative stress while enhancing anti-inflammatory responses and muscle structure, suggesting potential therapeutic benefits for muscle injuries.

Background: Obesity has been studied as a metabolic and an inflammatory disease and is characterized by increases in the production of pro-inflammatory adipokines in the adipose tissue.To elucidate the effects of natural dietary components on the inflammatory and metabolic consequences of obesity, we examined the effects of unripe, ripe and industrial acerola juice (Malpighia emarginata DC.) on the relevant inflammatory and lipolysis proteins in the adipose tissue of mice with cafeteria diet-induced obesity.
