Rationale: The use of benzimidazole-class novel psychoactive substances has significantly increased worldwide raising concerns about potential misuse and doping in animal sports such as camel racing. Understanding the metabolism of these substances is critical for developing reliable detection methods to ensure fair competition and animal welfare.
Methods: In vitro studies were conducted using homogenized camel liver samples to replicate metabolic processes.
Mutations that overexpress the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) are linked to cancers like breast (15-20%), head and neck (10-15%), colorectal (5-8%), and non-small cell lung cancer (10-50%), especially in East Asian populations. EGFR activation stimulates "RAS/RAF/MEK/ERK, PI3K/Akt, and MAPK" pathways, which enhance cell division, survival, angiogenesis, and tumor growth while inhibiting apoptosis and metastasis. Secondary mutations (e.
