Antioxidant and Nematocidal Effects of Several Oyster Mushroom Species of Genus Pleurotus (Agaricomycetes).

Cyathostomins are common intestinal nematodes that parasitize horses and can affect animal health and welfare. Alternative treatments are essential for sustainable parasite control, reducing the indiscriminate use of anthelmintics and their impacts on the environment, animals, and humans. Pleurotus spp.

In vitro and in vivo trypanocidal activity of a benzofuroxan derivative against Trypanosoma cruzi.

Chagas disease, caused by Trypanosoma cruzi, is a major public health problem and is described as one of the most neglected diseases worldwide. It affects about 6-7 million people. Currently, only two drugs are available for the treatment of this disease: nifurtimox and benznidazole.

Ellagic Acid Inhibits Neuroinflammation and Cognitive Impairment Induced by Lipopolysaccharides.

Neuroinflammation is a predisposing factor for the development of cognitive impairment and dementia. Among the new molecules that are currently being studied, ellagic acid (EA) has stood out for its neuroprotective properties. The present study investigated the effects of ellagic acid in the object recognition test, oxidative stress, cholinergic neurotransmission, glial cell expression, and phosphorylated Tau protein expression.
