The role of cytochrome P450-epoxygenase has been seen in cardiovascular physiology and pathophysiology. The aberration in CYP450-epoxygenase genes occur due to genetic polymorphisms, aging, or environmental factors, that increase susceptibility to cardiovascular diseases (CVDs). The actual role played by the CYP450-epoxygenases is the metabolism of arachidonic acid (AA) and linoleic acid (LA) into epoxyeicosatrienoic acids (EETs) and epoxyoctadecaenoic acid (EpOMEs) metabolites (oxylipins) and others, which is involved in vasodilation and myocardial-protection. But the genetic polymorphisms in CYP450-epoxygenases lose their beneficial cardiovascular effects of oxylipins, and the soluble epoxide hydrolase (sEH) antagonizes beneficial oxylipins into diols. Like sEH converts EETs into dihydroxyeicosatrienoic acid (DHETs), EpOMEs into dihydroxyoctadecaenoic acid (DiHOMEs), and reverses its beneficial effects, and the sEH gene (Ephx2) polymorphisms cause the enzyme to become overactive and convert epoxy-fatty acids into diols, making them vulnerable to CVDs, including hypertension. Other, enzymes like ω-hydroxylases (CYP450-4A11 & CYP450-4F2)-derived oxylipins from AA, ω-terminal-hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acids (19-, 20-HETE), lipoxygenase-derived oxylipins, mid-chain hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acids (5-, 11-, 12-, 15-HETEs), and the cyclooxygenase-derived prostanoids (prostaglandins: PGD, PGF; thromboxane: Txs, oxylipins) are involved in vasoconstriction, hypertension, inflammation, and cardiac toxicity. Also, there are significant interactions were seen between adenosine receptors [adenosine A receptor (AAR) and adenosine A receptor (AAR)] with CYP450-epoxygenases, ω-hydroxylases, sEH, and their derived oxylipins in the regulation of the cardiovascular response. Moreover, polymorphisms exist in CYP450-epoxygenases, ω-hydroxylases, sEH, and the adenosine receptor genes in populations associated with CVDs. This chapter will discuss the role of oxylipins' interactions with adenosine receptors in cardiovascular function/dysfunction in mice and humans.

Department of Parasitology, College of Veterinary Medicine, University of Al-Qadisiyah, Al Diwaniyahs, Iraq.
Background: is one of the most important parasites, which infests the upper respiratory tract of camels leading to deteriorating health effects, substantial economic losses, and even death.
Aim: This study aimed to detect the prevalence rate of in slaughtered camels, determining its morphology using the electron microscope, and confirming its species by molecular phylogeny.
Methods: A total of 200 slaughtered camels at different areas in Al Muthanna province (Iraq) were inspected visually to collect the parasite samples that were identified initially based on their morphological characteristics.

Background: Nuptial pads, a typical sexually dimorphic trait in anurans, are located on the first digit of the male forelimb in Rana chensinensis and exhibit morphological changes synchronized with breeding cycles. However, the genetic mechanisms underlying its formation and seasonal changes remain poorly understood.
Results: To identify genes and biological processes associated with the development and seasonal variations of nuptial pads, we conducted a comprehensive transcriptome analysis on nuptial pads and hind toe skin across both sexes at different breeding periods in R.

In this study, the interaction of crebanine, an isoquinoline alkaloid, with immunoglobulin G (IgG) was evaluated. Subsequently, the anticancer effects of crebanine in MCF-7 breast cancer cells were assessed. The results demonstrate that static quenching plays a key role in the fluorescence quenching of the IgG by crebanine, and some embedded hydrophobic patches of the IgG are exposed upon interaction with crebanine, while the characteristic β-sheet conformation of the IgG was almost preserved.

Purpose: This study aims to investigate the role of Cytochrome b-245 chaperone 1 (CYBC1) in glioblastoma (GBM) progression, focusing on its involvement in reactive oxygen species (ROS) production and associated signaling pathways. Understanding the molecular mechanisms driven by CYBC1 could provide new therapeutic targets and prognostic markers for GBM.
Materials And Methods: Publicly available datasets were analyzed to assess CYBC1 expression in GBM and its correlation with patient survival.
