Geraniol modulates inflammatory and antioxidant pathways to mitigate intestinal ischemia-reperfusion injury in male rats.

Intestinal ischemia-reperfusion injury (IIR/I) significantly increases morbidity and mortality. This study examines the therapeutic effects of geraniol (GNL), which is noted for its anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties, on intestinal I/R injury in rats. Forty-nine male Wistar-Albino rats were divided into seven groups.

Research note: Effects of L-carnitine and L-arginine on sperm quality and fertility potential of aged broiler breeder roosters.

This objective of this study was to investigate the effects of L-arginine (L-Arg) and L-carnitine (LC) and their mixture in the diet (at lower levels) on sperm quality in aging broiler breeder roosters. Thirty-two broiler breeder roosters of the Arian breed were kept at 50 wk of age after a 12-wk acclimatization period. The birds were divided into four treatments and eight replicates in a completely randomized design.

Apoptotic cell death of stomach cancer lines (AGS) induced by Co-NTB complex through cellular organelles and DNA damage.

Given that stomach cancer is the fourth leading cause of cancer-related death, there is a need to develop new drugs. Among various methods, metal-based coordination compounds are considered as an efficient strategy against this type of cancer. Similarly, the benzimidazole moiety plays a crucial role in biology; thus, various benzimidazole-based compounds have been found to be active as potential anticancer drugs and are currently used in clinical trials.

Efficacy of hyperimmunized egg yolk antibodies (IgY) against Campylobacter jejuni: In Vitro and In Vivo evaluations.

Campylobacter infections are a prevalent cause of diarrheal disease in humans and are the most significant zoonotic pathogens worldwide. Human campylobacteriosis is generally via ingestion of contaminated poultry products. However, based on recent studies chicken egg yolk antibody (IgY) powder has great potential to reduce the cecum load of Campylobacter jejuni (C.

Design and evaluation of two proposed hybrid FCC-BCC lattice structures for enhanced mechanical performance.

Lattice structures are an innovative solution to increase the strength-to-weight ratio of a structure. In this study, two polymeric hybrid lattice structures-"FRB" (a heterogenous structure which is indeed a BCC structure reinforced by FCC unit cells dispersed in a way to form a chessboard pattern in each layer) and the "Multifunctional" (a homogenous structure whose unit cells are a combination of FCC and BCC unit cells where their central nodes are connected)-are proposed, fabricated via liquid crystal display 3D printing technique, and their mechanical characteristics are evaluated under quasi-static loading, experimentally and numerically. The results indicate a 15.
