Anti-angiogenic and anti-oxidant effects of 2-NTI indole derivative vs. suramin in ex vivo, in vivo, and in vitro studies.

Angiogenesis is an intricate pathway that involves the formation of new blood capillaries from old, functioning ones. Improper angiogenesis is a feature of numerous maladies, including malignancy and autoimmune disorders. Indole-related derivatives are believed to interfere with the mitotic spindle, inhibiting the multiplication, and invasion of cancerous human cells.

The hepatoprotective effects of the polyphenol-enriched n-butanol fraction of against carbon tetrachloride-induced liver fibrosis in rats: study.

Liver fibrosis is a continuous wound-healing response to chronic injury caused by various chemical, virus, and pathological disorders; the lack of approved drugs or methods to reverse or prevent liver fibrosis makes it an interesting area of research. This study investigates the potential hepatoprotective effects of the phenolic extract of in rat's module of liver fibrosis. Liver fibrosis was induced by intraperitoneal injection of carbon tetrachloride (CCl) for six consecutive weeks; the butanol fraction of and silymarin was administered orally concurrently with CCl.

Effect of ophthalmic preparation of methyldopa on induced ocular hypertension in rabbits.

Glaucoma is a type of ocular disorder with multifaceted etiologies characterized by progressive optic nerve damage and ultimately loss of visual field. This study aimed to evaluate the possible intraocular pressure (IOP) lowering effect of an ophthalmic preparation of methyldopa (MD) in corticosteroid-induced ocular hypertension in rabbits. Forty New Zealand white male rabbits were assigned to the experiment and then randomly divided into five groups (n = 8).

Dapagliflozin mitigates oxidative stress, inflammatory, and histopathological markers of aging in mice.

Aging, a complex physiological process affecting all living things, is a major area of research, particularly focused on interventions to slow its progression. This study assessed the antiaging efficacy of dapagliflozin (DAPA) on various aging-related parameters in a mouse model artificially induced to age. Forty male Swiss albino mice were randomly divided into four groups of ten animals each.

Exploring the Role of as an Ointment Formulation in Inducing Wound Healing in Mice Skin.

Background: Natural compounds rich in secondary metabolites have gained attention as alternative therapies for wound healing due to their potential advantages over conventional treatments. Pleurotus ostreatus mushrooms have been identified for their wound-healing properties, including promoting neovascularization, epithelialization, and collagen synthesis.

Material And Methods: This study aimed to investigate the wound-healing properties of different doses of topical Extract of Pleurotus ostreatus in albino mice using an excisional wound model.

Effects of melatonin and zinc on lipid profile and renal function in type 2 diabetic patients poorly controlled with metformin.

Glycemic control and prevention of secondary complications are the most important goals of using pharmacologic treatment of diabetes mellitus (DM). The inadequate responses to oral hypoglycemic agents may be attributed to inadequate postreceptor events even when insulin levels are quite sufficient, and associated with oxidative stress induced by long-term hyperglycemia. The administration of antioxidants such as melatonin and zinc may improve tissue responses to insulin and increase the efficacy of drugs, e.
