The complementary intervention to modulate diabetes mellitus (DM) metabolism has recently brought the global attention, since DM has become among the global burden diseases. Where, several related pathways elevate the production of superoxide in consequences. For example, the flux of glycation-derived end products (AGEs) could lead to the deactivation of insulin signaling pathways.

Cancer is a multifaceted disease characterized by the gradual accumulation of genetic and epigenetic alterations within cells, leading to uncontrolled cell growth and invasive behavior. The intricate interplay between environmental factors, such as exposure to carcinogens, and the molecular cascades governing cell growth, differentiation, and survival contributes to cancer's development and progression. This review offers a comprehensive overview of key molecular targets and their roles in cancer development.

This paper reviews the utility of zebrafish (Danio rerio) as a model system for exploring neurobehavioral phenomena in preclinical research, focusing on physiological processes, disorders, and neurotoxicity biomarkers. A comprehensive review of the current literature was conducted to summarize the various behavioral characteristics of zebrafish. The study examined the etiological agents used to induce neurotoxicity and the biomarkers involved, including Aβ42, tau, MMP-13, MAO, NF-Кβ, and GFAP.

Reactive oxygen species (ROS) are metabolic by-products that constitute an indispensable component of physiological processes, albeit their heightened presence may proffer substantial perils to biological entities. Such a proliferation gives rise to a gradual escalation of oxidative stress within the organism, thereby compromising mitochondrial functionality and inflicting harm upon various bodily systems, with a particular predilection for the central nervous system. In its nascent stages, it is plausible that inflammation has been a facilitator in the progression of the malady.

Our study was aimed to demonstrate the shielding effect of hydroethanolic extract of Ipomoea staphylina (HEIS) bark on male Wistar rats challenged with potassium dichromate (KCrO). Division of animals was done in 4 groups' viz.
