Effects of environmentally relevant ibuprofen and valproic acid exposure on zebrafish behavior

Active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) are increasingly entering aquatic environments due to human and veterinary use, wastewater discharges, and inadequate waste containment, raising significant concerns for both ecosystems and human hea...

Fipronil disturbs the antigen-specific immune responses and GABAergic gene expression in the ovalbumin-immunized BALB/c mice

Abstract Background Fipronil (FPN) is a broad-spectrum pesticide and commonly known as low toxicity to vertebrates. However, increasing evidence suggests that exposure to FPN might induce unexpected adverse effects in the liver, reproductiv...

Antibacterial and antioxidant effects of Punicalagin extracts from Punica granatum peels

The growing recognition of the health-promoting potential of compounds derived from natural sources, particularly those exhibiting antimicrobial and antioxidant activities, has resulted in a surge of research publications dedicated to explo...

ABSTRACTMalnutrition and Obesity are worldwide health phenomena so the aims of the study were to assist the prevalence of obesity and malnutrition among school-aged children of the district Peshawar. Institutional based cross-sectional stud...

Differences in Genetic Background Contribute to Pseudomonas Exotoxin A-Induced Hepatotoxicity in Rats

Pseudomonas aeruginosa exotoxin A (PEA) causes severe hepatotoxicity in experimental animals and is useful in investigations of immune-mediated liver injury. However, strain differences in the sensitivity to PEA-induced hepatotoxicity in ra...

Epidemiological, Morphometric, and Molecular Investigation of Cystic Echinococcosis in Camel and Cattle From Upper Egypt: Current Status and Zoonotic Implications

Cystic echinococcosis has been considered one of the major parasitic zoonoses which is associated with severe economic losses. The present study was undertaken to investigate the occurrence, organ distribution, cyst fertility, and viability...

Extramedullary plasmacytoma of the oral cavity metastasising to both kidneys in a dog

Abstract Background Most extramedullary plasmacytomas (EMPs) aresolitary and located in the head and neck region. They may also occur in the visceral parts of the body. Objectives Here, we report a case of oral EMP followed by neoplastic pl...

Pattern Distribution of Connexins in the Ortho- and Parakeratinized Epithelium of the Lingual Mucosa in Birds

Connexins are important proteins involved in cell-to-cell communication and cytodifferentiation during renewal and cornification of the multilayered epithelia. So far, there is a lack of reports on this subject in birds’ structurally differ...
