Flavonoids for gastrointestinal tract local and associated systemic effects: A review of clinical trials and future perspectives.

Background: Flavonoids are naturally occurring dietary phytochemicals with significant antioxidant effects aside from several health benefits. People often consume them in combination with other food components. Compiling data establishes a link between bioactive flavonoids and prevention of several diseases in animal models, including cardiovascular diseases, diabetes, gut dysbiosis, and metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD).

Evaluation of minced beef quality fortified with edible microalgae species during cryogenic storage.

The aim of this study is to evaluate the effect of some microalgae species adding with different forms on minced beef meat shelf life during cryogenic storage for 13 days. Chlorella vulgaris and Arthrospira platensis are chosen because of their safety and high nutritional value. Microalgae nanoparticles with their different forms have been prepared by using emulsification solvent evaporation method.

Serum miRNA-101 expression signature as non-invasive diagnostic biomarker for Hepatitis C virus-associated hepatocellular carcinoma in Egyptian patients.

Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is a leading cause of cancer mortality globally due to HCC late diagnosis and limited treatment options. MiRNAs (miRNAs) emerged as potential biomarkers for various diseases, including HCC. However, the value of miRNA-101 as a serum biomarker for HCV-induced HCC has not been fully investigated.

Ameliorative effect of venom against arthritic influence of Freund's complete adjuvant FCA in paw and ankle of male rats.

Background: Pain and inflammation are closely associated with rheumatoid arthritis (RA), which affects the bones and joints.

Aim: While there are a number of therapeutic options for arthritis, their side effects restrict their use and encourage the search for alternative, natural remedies.

Methods: In male rats, we examined the anti-inflammatory and anti-arthritic properties of venom (NHV).

How does the coral microbiome mediate its natural host fitness under climate stress conditions? Physiological, molecular, and biochemical mechanisms.

Although the symbiotic partnership between corals and algal endosymbionts has been extensively explored, interactions between corals, their algal endosymbionts and microbial associates are still less understood. Screening the response of natural microbial consortiums inside corals can aid in exploiting them as markers for dysbiosis interactions inside the coral holobiont. The coral microbiome includes archaea, bacteria, fungi, and viruses hypothesized to play a pivotal vital role in coral health and tolerance to heat stress condition via different physiological, biochemical, and molecular mechanisms.
