Microalgae represent one of the most promising sources bioactive compounds for pharmaceutical and food industries. Among these bioactives, carotenoids could be highlighted due to their health-promoting effects, including anti-inflammatory, neuroprotective or antioxidant properties. In this study, diverse microalgae extracts enriched in carotenoids, from Haematococcus pluvialis, Nannochloropsis ...

the aim of this trial was to determine the toxic effect of oms-43 on spraymen and inhabitants. the spraying operation lasted for 30 successive days, and two teams consisting of 20 spraymen, 2 mixers, 4 foremen and team leaders were engaged in this operation. the operators were under systematic and closed clinical observation and cholinesterase determination (tintometric method) during the opera...

Recent work has provided compelling evidence that increased levels of acetylcholine (ACh) can be protective in heart failure, whereas reduced levels of ACh secretion can cause heart malfunction. Previous data show that cardiomyocytes themselves can actively secrete ACh, raising the question of whether this cardiomyocyte derived ACh may contribute to the protective effects of ACh in the heart. T...

Introduction Afzelin is a glycosyloxyflavone that kaempferol attached to an alpha-L-rhamnosyl residue at position 3 via glycosidic linkage. It has role as plant metabolite, antimicrobial (Antibacterial and antifungal) agent anti-inflammatory agent. glycosyloxyflavone, trihydroxyflavone monosaccharide derivative. In this work, we determined the anticholinergic, antiepileptic, antidiabetic, anti-...

A male patient developed ocular myasthenia gravis (MG) at the age of 33. He was anti-acetylcholine receptor antibody (anti-AChR Ab) negative. He received cholinesterase blocker for 5 months and went into a complete clinical remission that lasted untreated for 17 years. He relapsed recently with ocular symptoms only. He is now anti-AChR Ab positive and SFEMG is abnormal in a facial muscle. The p...

        The crude methanolic extract of the seeds of Celastrus paniculatus along with its organic soluble fractions were tested for their possible antioxidant and anti-alzheirmer (AD) activity. The extracts showed prominent DPPH free radical scavenging activity, inhibiting activity of authentic peroxynitrite (ONOO-) and inhibition of total reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation. In D...

Plant-based remedies have been widely used for the management of variable diseases due to their safety and less side effects. In present study, we investigated Saussurea lappa CB. Clarke. (SL) given its largely reported medicinal Specifically, our objective was provide an insight into a new polymethyl methacrylate based nanocapsules as carriers SL essential oil characterize biologic functions. ...
