spores maintain gut homeostasis in murine ulcerative colitis via modulating microbiota, apoptosis, and the TXNIP/NLRP3 inflammasome cascade.

Ulcerative colitis (UC), a persistent immune-mediated disorder lacking effective treatment, is distinguished by gut microbiota dysbiosis, abnormal activation of the NLRP3 inflammasome pathway, and apoptosis. Despite growing attention to these factors, understanding their significance in UC pathogenesis remains a challenge. The present study explores the potential therapeutic impact of (Bc) spores in a murine UC model induced by drinking 4 % (w/v) dextran sulfate sodium (DSS) in C57BL/6 mice.

The interplay of TapSAKI and NEAT-1 as potential modulators in gentamicin-induced acute kidney injury via orchestrating miR-22-3p/TLR4/MyD88/NF-қB/IL-1 β milieu: Novel therapeutic approach of Betanin.

Introduction: Gentamicin (GNT) is a broad-spectrum antibiotic that is widely prescribed in critically ill patients. However, GNT exerts deleterious effects on renal proximal tubules which could predispose to acute kidney injury (AKI).

Aim: The study aimed to investigate the interplay of TapSAKI, NEAT-1, and miR-22-3p in GNT-induced AKI via modulating the TLR4/MyD88/NF-қB/IL-1β trajectory.

In vivo antischistosomal activity profiling and efficacy of niosomal Spirulina platensis and praziquantel combined remedy against murine Schistosoma mansoni infection.

Schistosomiasis is a serious parasite disease with a high rate of mortality and negative financial impacts in subtropical and tropical locations like Egypt. The goal of this study was to investigate the anti-schistosomal effect of Spirulina platensis (SP) and Spirulina loaded niosomes (SPN), either in the presence or absence of praziquantel (PZQ) against S. mansoni in experimentally infected mice.

Performance of the systemic lupus erythematosus risk probability index (SLERPI) in the Egyptian college of rheumatology (ECR) study cohort.

Objectives: This study aimed to evaluate the performance of systemic lupus erythematosus Risk Probability Index (SLERPI) in Egyptian patients with SLE using a national rheumatology database.

Methods: The Egyptian College of Rheumatology (ECR) database comprised of 1,162 patients with SLE and 4,327 with miscellaneous rheumatological diseases who were recruited from the Rheumatology Departments across the country. The diagnosis of SLE was established by expert rheumatologists.
