Diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN) is one of the strongest risk factors for diabetic foot ulcers (neuropathic ulcerations) and the existing ulcers may further deteriorate due to the damage to sensory neurons. Moreover, the resulting numbness in the limbs causes difficulty in discovering these ulcerations in a short time. DPN is associated with gut microbiota dysbiosis.

Methods: The exposure assessments of cyclophosphamide and cytarabine were performed under traditional or CSTDs. For preparation activity, chemotherapy contamination samples on protective equipment (such as gloves and masks) were collected.
Article Synopsis
- Cervical cancer is a significant health issue for women globally, and current treatments for patients not suitable for surgery show poor survival rates; this research investigates the effects of farnesol on cervical cancer cells (HeLa).
- The study utilized MTT and clonogenic assays to assess cell viability and colony formation, while fluorescence microscopy and flow cytometry were used to examine apoptosis and mitochondrial health, respectively.
- Results indicated that farnesol has dose- and time-dependent antiproliferative effects on HeLa cells, inducing apoptosis, decreasing mitochondrial membrane potential, and reducing levels of certain proteins (PI3K, p-PI3K, p-Akt) involved in cell survival signaling.
