Article Synopsis
  • The study aimed to explore diosmetin's interaction with seven receptors relevant to oxidative stress, to assess its potential in managing Parkinson's disease.
  • It was found that diosmetin significantly interacts with these receptors, particularly showing strong binding with Adenosine A2A and NURR1, indicating its potential effectiveness in combating neurodegenerative processes.
  • Furthermore, diosmetin demonstrated notable antioxidant properties, effectively neutralizing various free radicals, suggesting it could serve as a valuable treatment option for Parkinson's disease.

Background: Diosmetin is an O-methylated flavone and the aglycone part of the flavonoid glycosides diosmin that occurs naturally in citrus fruits. Pharmacologically, diosmetin is reported to exhibit anticancer, antimicrobial, antioxidant, oestrogenic, and anti-inflammatory activities.

Objective: This comprehensive review was aimed to critically explore diverse pharmacological activities exhibited by diosmetin.

The aim of this study was to describe a technique of fabrication of two implant-supported mandibular overdentures. There are several treatment modalities for completely edentulous patients including conventional complete dentures (CDs), implant-supported overdentures (IODs), and implant-supported fixed prosthesis. Patients with a severely resorbed mandible often experience problems with their conventional CDs.

Aims: The study was aimed at exploring the role of Acetyl L-Carnitine supplementation attenuating dementia and degradation of cognitive abilities in Hyperhomocysteinemia induced AD manifestations in the mouse model.

Background: Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a neurological disorder that is marked by dementia, and degradation of cognitive abilities. There is great popularity gained by natural supplements as the treatment for AD, due to the higher toxicities of synthetic drugs.

Background: T-type calcium channels are aberrantly expressed in different human cancers and regulate cell cycle progression, proliferation, migration, and survival. FAK-1 can promote tumor protein degradation (p53) through ubiquitination, leading to cancer cell growth and proliferation. Similar findings are obtained regarding protease inhibitors' effect on cytokine-induced neutrophil activation that suppresses Granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulatingfactor (GM-CSF) TNF-α-induced O2 release and adherence in human neutrophils without affecting phosphorylation of Extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) and p38.
