Lipid-deposits in internal organs, e.g. nephrons, are discussed as reliable marker to determine hypothermia as cause of death. While investigations concerning lipid vacuoles in the epithelium of the renal tubules are already published, there is no systematic information available about hypothermia and lipid deposits in cardiomyocytes. Therefore, this retrospective study presents the first results of lipid-stainings of myocardial samples taken by autopsies in hypothermia-cases in comparison to samples from a control group. It was the aim of the study to clarify the conceivable causal relationship between death due to hypothermia and lipid-deposits apart from lipofuscin and fatty degeneration, respectively, in cardiomyocytes.

Metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD), previously referred to as non-alcoholic fatty liver disease, encompasses a broad range of hepatic metabolic disorders primarily characterised by the disruption of hepatic lipid metabolism, hepatic lipid accumulation and steatosis. Severe cases of MASLD might progress to metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis, characterised by hepatic inflammation, hepatocyte ballooning degeneration, activation of hepatic stellate cells (HSCs) and fibrogenesis. It may further progress to hepatocellular carcinoma.

(Lepidoptera: Nolidae) is a major pest of cotton and other crops in Egypt, and the widespread use of insecticides has led to resistance. This study evaluates, for the first time, the bioactivity of (Malpighiales: Euphorbiaceae) oil and its nano-emulsion (CTNE) against 25 newly hatched larvae of Boisd. We assessed their biological effects across different developmental stages and performed histological and ultrastructural examinations.

Omega-3 fatty acids are critical components of cell membranes, including those in the retina. Specifically, eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) are the primary omega-3 fatty acids that have been studied for their potential benefits in retinal health, preventing the progression of retinopathy. Several studies have shown that a higher intake of omega-3 fatty acids is associated with a lower risk of developing diabetic retinopathy and age-related macular degeneration (AMD).

Corn and soybeans are commodities and ingredients of global interest, whose prices fluctuate based on global demands. In this sense, this study aimed to assess ora-pro-nóbis ( leaf meal (OLM) as an alternative to be included in the diets of Nile tilapia (). The optimal inclusion level of OLM in tilapia diets is investigated herein, aiming to improve their growth performance and health.
