Aim: Nuclear factor E2-related factor-2 (Nrf2) regulates many cytoprotective antioxidants, and detoxifying enzymes, has been a hopeful approach for chemoprevention of cancer. We researched the chemopreventive impact watercress on DMBA-induced oxidative damage in rat liver via Nrf2/ARE signalling pathway present study. 
 Material Method: Female Wistar albino rats have categorized into three...

The includes Covid-19, Severe syndrome coronavirus, Middle East syndrome-related coronaviruses.In contrast, others are expected to have risk transformation such bovine porcine coronavirus. We screened set natural plant ...

Fascioliasis is a zoonotic disease caused by Fasciola spp. We report five serologically and molecularly confirmed cases in an emerging region Iran. A retrospective, case series study, performed Lorestan Province, west of Iran between January 2015 June 2016. From 1256 patients examined, 16 had positive serum ELISA. Five were approved as infected with fasciolosis using stool exam PCR. Age ranged ...

Natural isothiocyanates (ITCs) are phytochemicals abundant in cruciferous vegetables with the general structure, R–NCS. They bioactive organosulfur compounds derived from hydrolysis of glucosinolates by myrosinase. A significant number have been isolated different plant sources that include broccoli, Brussels sprouts, cabbage, cauliflower, kale, mustard, wasabi, and watercress. Several ITCs dem...

Epidemiological studies continue to support the premise that diets rich in fruits and vegetables may offer protection against cancer of various anatomic sites. This correlation is quite persuasive for vegetables including ALLIUM (e. g., garlic) and cruciferous (e. g., broccoli and watercress) vegetables. The bioactive food components responsible for the cancer chemopreventive effects of various...

Ready-to-eat baby-leaf vegetables market has been growing and offering to consumers convenient, healthy and appealing products, which may contain interesting bioactive compounds. In this work, the composition and the evolution of the phenolic compounds from different baby-leaf vegetables during refrigerated storage was studied. The phenolic compounds were extracted using pressurized liquid extr...

A retrospective study on the natural infection of Galba truncatula by Fasciola hepatica was carried out in the French department of Haute-Vienne to determine whether there are areas at risk for fasciolosis. Adult snails included in this analysis came from samples collected from pastures on 259 farms and from 121 wild watercress beds between 1970 and 2006. Fasciola hepatica infection rates were ...

Cigarette smoking is the major cause of lung cancer in humans. The continuous increase in the prevalence of cigarette smoking worldwide demands a practical means to circumvent this serious health problem. Our research has focused on the development of new chemopreventive agents against lung carcinogenicity of the tobacco-specific nitrosamine 4(methylnitrosamino)-l-(3-pyridyl)-l-butanone. Severa...
