Ultrastructural characteristics of leishmania (L.)tropica (Wright, 1903) and cell-parasite relationships in cutaneous leishmaniasis. Light and electron microscopic study.

A light and electron microscopic study of skin biopsies taken from 9 patients with ulcerative leishmaniasis of both sexes aged from 14 to 26 years in the territory of the Republic of Azerbaijan was carried out. Based on clinical, morphological and electron microscopic parameters, all patients were diagnosed with ulcerative cutaneous anthroponotic leishmaniasis (Leishmania (L.) tropica).

Flavonoids as Chemosensitizers in Leukemias.

Flavonoids, a diverse group of natural compounds abundant in plants, fruits, and seeds, are not only responsible for the vibrant colors, fragrances, and flavors found in nature but also possess significant health benefits. Representing a secondary metabolite, these phytonutrients contribute to overall well-being. They have garnered considerable interest due to their diverse biological roles, encompassing antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and anticancer properties.

Synthesis and characterization of activated carbon-supported magnetic nanocomposite (MNPs-OLAC) obtained from okra leaves as a nanocarrier for targeted delivery of morin hydrate.

Introduction: The method of encapsulating the drug molecule in a carrier, such as a magnetic nanoparticle, is a promising development that has the potential to deliver the medicine to the site where it is intended to be administered. Morin is a pentahydroxyflavone obtained from the leaves, stems, and fruits of various plantsmainly from the Moraceae family exhibiting diverse pharmacological activities such as anti-inflammatory, anti-oxidant, and free radical scavenging and helps treat diseases such as diabetes, myocardial infarction and cancer.

Methods: In this study, we conducted the synthesis of a nanocomposite with magnetic properties by coating biocompatible activated carbon obtained from okra plant leaves with magnetic nanoparticles.

Green-Synthesized Characterization, Antioxidant and Antibacterial Applications of CtAC/MNPs-Ag Nanocomposites.

The emergence of antibiotic resistance, caused by the improper use of antibiotics, is a significant challenge in combating infectious diseases, leading to millions of annual fatalities. The occurrence of antimicrobial side effects catalyzes the investigation of novel antimicrobial compounds and sources of drugs. Consequently, the research on biological activity that is conducted on plants, plant extracts, and compounds that are produced from plant components is of utmost significance.

Ultrastructural investigation of iron oxide nanoparticles accumulation in the liver of common carp (Cyprinus carpio Linnaeus, 1758).

In recent years, the intensive production of nanoparticles with a wide application has led to their transfer to the environment, including the water ecosystem. The accumulation of nanoparticles in fish, causing various pathological changes in the host, raises certain concerns. In the current study, we investigated the penetration and bioaccumulation of FeO nanoparticles, in the liver of common carp (Cyprinus carpio Linnaeus, 1758).
