Sustainable agriculture approaches necessitate a concerted effort from researchers to establish paths that meet global population needs without compromising environmental resources. Goats are unique among ruminants because of their ability to adapt to some of the harshest environments around the world. Growth Hormone (GH) gene is a major regulator of muscle mass growth.

Aim: This systematic review and meta-analysis aimed to investigate the measures of associations between CD and psychiatric disorders, specifically anxiety and depression, and explore the relationship between adherence to a Gluten-Free Diet (GFD) and the psychiatric aspects of the disease.
Methods: We searched PubMed, Scopus and Web of Science for articles investigating anxiety and depression in CD patients.
Article Synopsis
- Alzheimer's disease (AD) causes significant cognitive decline and higher health risks in older adults, with mitochondrial dysfunction being a key contributor.
- Mitochondrial issues include problems with energy metabolism, calcium regulation, and cellular damage, which are linked to several complex mechanisms in AD pathology.
- While lecanemab is currently the only FDA-approved drug for AD, various therapies targeting mitochondrial dysfunction are explored, including antioxidants, nutritional supplements, and lifestyle changes like exercise.
Halophilic archaea are a unique group of microorganisms that thrive in high-salt environments, exhibiting remarkable adaptations to survive extreme conditions. Archaeological wood and El-Hamra Lake serve as a substrate for a diverse range of microorganisms, including archaea, although the exact role of archaea in archaeological wood biodeterioration remains unclear. The morphological and chemical characterizations of archaeological wood were evaluated using FTIR, SEM, and EDX.
