Background: Phosphodiesterase-4 is an enzyme that regulates immune responses and contributes to the development of psoriasis. Dipyridamole and roflumilast function as phosphodiesterase-4 inhibitors, reducing pro-inflammatory cytokine expression. The aim was to evaluate the anti-psoriatic effect of the topical administration of dipyridamole and roflumilast nanoemulgel combination on imiquimod-induced psoriasiform skin inflammation in rats.

This study investigates the fabrication and characterization of n-FeS/p-Si heterojunction photodetectors using chemical bath deposition (CBD) at deposition temperatures ranging from 50 °C to 80 °C. The impact of temperature on the structural, morphological, and optical properties of FeS thin films was evaluated. X-ray diffraction (XRD) revealed polycrystalline cubic FeS with improved crystallinity as the deposition temperature increased.

The results of the preparation of protective shields from ionizing radiation, flame retardant from pure epoxy supported by nano-bismuth oxide, show that the protective shields supported by nanoparticles improve the attenuation properties, the thermal stability, the flame retardancy and mechanical properties. Also, the polymeric shield supported by BiO (NaCO) retardant the flame much better than supported by BiO (NaOH). Finally, the quality of the protective shields increased as the energy of the photons of the ionizing rays decreased.

Background: Osteoporosis (OP) is a highly prevalent disorder affecting 50 million individuals around the world. It is also a typical skeletal disorder described by low bone mass, which leads to reduced bone strength and an enhanced risk of fractures. Osteoprotegerin As a member of the TNF receptor superfamily, osteoprotegerin is well recognized for its protective effect against excessive bone resorption.

The Ora Formation (late Devonian-early Carboniferous) is thought to be a potential source rocks for the Paleozoic petroleum system of Iraq. The source potential from the Ora Formation is evaluated for the first time ever in this study from western and northern Iraq which integrates data from organic geochemistry including Total Organic Carbon (TOC) analysis, HAWK pyrolysis, gas chromatography (GC), and gas chromatography mass spectrometry (GC-MS) and mineralogical X-ray diffraction and scanning electron microscopy. The shale and muddy carbonate succession within the Ora Formation from surface section in northernmost Iraq and subsurface section from two wells (Akkas-1 and Akkas -3) from western Iraq have been employed to assess the source rock potentiality, thermal maturity, kerogen type, organic content, and depositional environment.

Background: Fish producers in Iraq currently facing large and growing problems, represented by the difficulty of getting rid of large numbers of dead fish as a result of mass phenomenon mortality since 2018. As their treatment and disposal have become very cumbersome and costly, and leaving it to wild animals and natural forces is unacceptable, so most of them resort to the composting method because it is a simple, easy, and inexpensive process and benefits outputs, but it takes a long time.
Aim: The study aimed to compare two different composting methods for the disposal of dead fish, one of them includes the use of lactic acid bacilli (LAB) to improve composting efficiency.

Colorectal cancer (CRC) is one of the main fatal cancers. Cell signaling such as Janus kinase/signal transducer and activator of transcription (JAK/STAT) signaling substantially influences the process of gene expression and cell growth. Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) play regulatory roles in cell signaling, cell proliferation, and cancer fate.

Reactive oxygen species (ROS) are highly reactive molecules generated in living organisms and an excessive production of ROS culminates in oxidative stress and cellular damage. Notably, oxidative stress plays a critical role in the pathogenesis of a number of oral mucosal diseases, including oral mucositis, which remains one of cancer treatments' most common side effects. We have shown previously that oral keratinocytes are remarkably sensitive to oxidative stress, and this may hinder the development and reproducibility of epithelial cell-based models of oral disease.
