In recent years, there have been notable advancements in the field of cancer immunotherapy, namely in the area of immune checkpoint inhibition. The Lymphocyte-activation gene 3 (LAG-3) has garnered attention as a potentially valuable focus of study in this particular field. The present study examines the biological aspects of LAG-3, its clinical consequences, and the potential therapeutic opportunities associated with its modulation.

In our study, gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) were created using an extracellular extract from the fungus (). The reaction color was observed to be a reddish pink after a 24 h reaction, demonstrating the synthesis of the nanoparticles.

Here, the mice were exposed to stress via immobilization of their four limbs under a restrainer for 6 h daily until 7 days of the induction after 30 min of respective drug treatment in different mice groups. The result found the protective effect of these phytoconstituents and their combinations against CIS-induced depression due to their ability to suppress oxidative stress, restore mitochondria, HPA-axis modulation, neurotransmitter level, stress hormones, and inflammatory markers.

The generation of oxygen free radicals and oxidative damage is believed to be involved in the pathogenesis of AD. It has been suggested that date palm, a plant rich in phenolic compounds and flavonoids, can provide an alternative treatment to fight memory loss and cognitive dysfunction due to its potent antioxidant activity.
