This literature review emphasizes the innovative role of ferroptosis in cancer treatment. Ferroptosis is a kind of deliberate cell death that is characterized by the generation of lipid peroxides and needs the presence of iron. Ferroptosis is a controlled cell death process that adheres to certain rules and regulations.

The presence of conditions like Alpha-1 antitrypsin deficiency, hemochromatosis, non-alcoholic fatty liver diseases and metabolic syndrome can elevate the susceptibility to hepatic cellular carcinoma (HCC). Utilizing network-based gene expression profiling network analyst tools, presents a novel approach for drug target discovery. The significance level (-score) obtained through Cytoscape in the intended center gene survival assessment confirms the identification of all target center genes, which play a fundamental role in disease formation and progression in HCC.

This study determined the individual and combined effects of extracellular adenosine triphosphate (ATP) and quercetin (QUE) on the quality of post-thawed sperm and the fertilization potential of Lohi rams. In experiment 1, semen samples from four Lohi rams were pooled and extended with different concentrations of ATP or QUE (control; no ATP or QUE, 1 or 2 mM ATP and 10 or 20 μM QUE). In experiment 2, pooled semen samples were extended with various combinations of ATP and QUE (control; no ATP and QUE, 1 mM ATP + 10 μM QUE, 1 mM ATP + 20 μM QUE, 2 mM ATP + 10 μM QUE and 2 mM ATP + 20 μM QUE).

The therapeutical attributes of silver nanoparticles (Ag-NPs) in both conditions (in vitro and in vivo) have been investigated using different plants. This study focused on the green chemistry approach that was employed to optimize the synthesis of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) using aqueous extract as a reducing and stabilizing agent. The characterization of obtained -AgNPs was undertaken using UV-visible spectroscopy, Atomic-force microscopy (AFM), Fourier-Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and Energy-Dispersive X-ray (EDX) analysis.

Environmental pollution induced by heavy metals has been identified as a leading threat in the modern era. Woody tree species may play a crucial role in the removal of heavy metals from soil and air, thus minimizing pollution potential. The present study was designed to evaluate the phytoremediation potential of six tree species; Azadirachta indica, Cassia fistula, Conocarpus erectus, Eucalyptus camaldulensis, Morus alba, and Populus deltoids, respectively, in the industrial and residential areas of Faisalabad based on the concentrations of lead (Pb), zinc (Zn), cadmium (Cd), and copper (Cu) in their leaves and barks in winter (2018) and summer (2019) seasons.
