Quantitative mapping of proteasome interactomes and substrates using ProteasomeID.

Proteasomes are essential molecular machines responsible for the degradation of proteins in eukaryotic cells. Altered proteasome activity has been linked to neurodegeneration, auto-immune disorders and cancer. Despite the relevance for human disease and drug development, no method currently exists to monitor proteasome composition and interactions in vivo in animal models.

Investigation of crocin's protective effect on cyclophosphamide-induced hypothalamic-pituitary-gonadal axis defects in adult female rats.

Cyclophosphamide is a drug used in chemotherapy. However, it has side effects, including changes in reproductive system functioning. Some herbal compounds can reduce the harmful effects of cyclophosphamide.
