Phytochemical Profile and In Vitro Cytotoxic, Genotoxic, and Antigenotoxic Evaluation of L. Leaf Extract.

L. () is used in Italian folk medicine. This study was performed to determine genotoxic and antigenotoxic effects of leaf extract against mitomycin C (MMC) using an in vitro cytokinesis-block micronucleus assay (CBMN) in the Chinese Hamster Ovarian K1 (CHO-K1) cell line.

Genotoxic and antigenotoxic medicinal plant extracts and their main phytochemicals: "A review".

Many medicinal plant extracts have been proven to have significant health benefits. In contrast, research has shown that some medicinal plant extracts can be toxic, genotoxic, mutagenic, or carcinogenic. Therefore, evaluation of the genotoxicity effects of plant extracts that are used as traditional medicine is essential to ensure they are safe for use and in the search for new medication.

Beneficial Effects of Plant Oils Supplementation on Multiple Sclerosis: A Comprehensive Review of Clinical and Experimental Studies.

Multiple sclerosis disease (MS) is a 38.5 chronic neurological autoimmune disease that affects the nervous system, and its incidence is increasing globally. At present, there is no cure for this disease, and with its severity and disabling variety, it is important to search for possibilities that could help to slow its progression.

Supercritical Fluid Extraction of Oils from Cactus L. and Seeds.

This study aimed to assess the capability of supercritical fluid extraction (SFE) as an alternative and green technique compared to Soxhlet extraction for the production of oils from (OFI) seeds originating from Yemen and Italy and (OD) seeds from Yemen. The following parameters were used for SFE extraction: a pressure of 300 bar, a CO flow rate of 1 L/h, and temperatures of 40 and 60 °C. The chemical composition, including the fatty acids and tocopherols (vitamin E) of the oils, was determined using chromatographic methods.

Hydrochar and hydrochar co-compost from OFMSW digestate for soil application: 3. Toxicological evaluation.

Modern societies produce ever-increasing amounts of waste, e.g. organic fraction of municipal solid waste (OFMSW).

Prickly Pear Seed Oil Extraction, Chemical Characterization and Potential Health Benefits.

Prickly pear ( L.) is a member of the Cactaceae family originally grown in South America, and the plant is now distributed to many parts of the world, including the Middle East. The chemical composition and biological activities of different parts of prickly pear, including cladodes, flowers, fruit, seeds and seed oil, were previously investigated.

Pulicaria jaubertii E. Gamal-Eldin reduces triacylglyceride content and modifies cellular antioxidant pathways in 3T3-L1 adipocytes.

Levels of obesity in Middle Eastern countries are increasing. Phytochemicals have anti-obesogenic properties as evidenced by prevention of adipocyte differentiation and blocking triacylglyceride (TG) accumulation. In Yemen, Pulicaria jaubertii E.
