Liver fibrosis is a significant contributor to global morbidity and mortality, making the identification of non-toxic natural therapies to slow its progression essential. This study evaluated the anti-fibrotic potential of a nutraceutical blend comprising extra virgin olive oil, linseed oil, and ginger extract, formulated in both emulsion and nanoemulsion forms, using a rat model of liver fibrosis. Nanoemulsions were prepared using the ultrasonication technique, and their particle size and stability were analyzed via the DLS method.

Article Synopsis
  • The study aimed to better understand severe serine biosynthesis defects by examining prenatal and postnatal effects in 12 unrelated Egyptian families with suspected Neu-Laxova syndrome (NLS).
  • Researchers employed fetal ultrasound, postnatal assessments, and whole exome sequencing (WES) to analyze this new cohort and reviewed existing literature for a broader context.
  • Findings included novel clinical signs and the identification of several genetic variants, expanding the understanding of serine biosynthesis disorders and highlighting the importance of prenatal exome sequencing.
