Background: Aflatoxins are highly potent mycotoxins that can seriously harm the health of humans and a variety of animal species. On the other hand, camel milk and silymarin offer a variety of positive effects for many animal species. In addition, camel milk and silymarin reduce the impact of AFB1 on the hematology, serum biochemical markers, histopathology of the liver and testes, and expression of the inflammatory, antioxidant, and male reproductive genes.

Purpose: This work compared the potential effects of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BM-MSCs) with BM-MSCs-derived exosomes against impaired autophagy in streptozotocin (STZ)-induced diabetic rats.

Materials And Methods: Three days after STZ injection, a single dose of (3 ​× ​10^6) BM- MSCs or BM-MSCs-derived exosomes (80 μg/rat) was administered to evaluate their effects against nondiabetic and diabetic control rats. We assessed pancreatic structure via light and electron microscopy and evaluated its staining for insulin and the autophagy marker P62 immunohistochemically.
