Alpha-glucosidase and alpha-amylase inhibitory activities, molecular docking, and antioxidant capacities of salvia aurita constituents
(MPDI, 2020)
Diabetes mellitus (DM) is one of the most dangerous metabolic diseases with a high rate of mortality worldwide. It is well known that insulin resistance and deficiency in insulin production from pancreatic β-cells are the ...
Antioxidant responses are associated with differences in drought tolerance between maize and sorghum
(Arid land institute, 2021)
Drought is a major cause of decreased yield in crops worldwide. Sorghum
(Sorghum bicolor) and maize (Zea mays) are two of the key crops in Africa
serving as human food as well as livestock feed. For improved crop ...
Utility of Antioxidants in the Treatment of Male Infertility: Clinical Guidelines Based on a Systematic Review and Analysis of Evidence
(The world journal of men's health, 2021)
It is widely accepted that oxidative stress plays an important role in the pathophysiology of male infertility and that antioxidants
could have a significant role in the treatment of male infertility. The main objectives ...
The sixth edition of the WHO manual for human semen analysis: A critical review and SWOT analysis
(MDPI, 2021)
Semen analysis is the cornerstone of male fertility evaluation with WHO guidelines
providing the basis for procedural standardization and reference values worldwide. The first WHO
manual was published in 1980, and five ...
Differential sensitivity of two endothelial cell lines to hydrogen peroxide toxicity: Relevance for in vitro studies of the blood–brain barrier
(MPDI, 2020)
Oxidative stress (OS) has been linked to blood–brain barrier (BBB) dysfunction which in
turn has been implicated in the initiation and propagation of some neurological diseases. In this study,
we profiled, for the first ...
Alpha-glucosidase and alpha-amylase inhibitory activities, molecular docking, and antioxidant capacities of plectranthus ecklonii constituents
(MDPI, 2022)
Shortage in insulin secretion or degradation of produced insulin is the principal characteristic of the metabolic disorder of diabetes mellitus (DM). However, because the current medications
for the treatment of DM have ...
Green-synthesized zinc oxide nanoparticles mitigate salt stress in sorghum bicolor
(MDPI, 2022)
Salinity is an abiotic stress that is responsible for more than 50% of crop losses worldwide.
Current strategies to overcome salinity in agriculture are limited to the use of genetically modified
crops and chemicals ...
In vitro alpha-glucosidase and alpha-amylase inhibitory activities and antioxidant capacity of helichrysum cymosum and helichrysum pandurifolium schrank constituents
(MDPI, 2022)
Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a group of systemic metabolic disorders with a high rate of morbidity
and mortality worldwide. Due to the detrimental side effects of the current treatment, there is a
great need to develop more ...
Oxidative stress and assisted reproduction: A comprehensive review of its pathophysiological role and strategies for optimizing embryo culture environment
(MDPI, 2022)
Oxidative stress (OS) due to an imbalance between reactive oxygen species (ROS) and
antioxidants has been established as an important factor that can negatively affect the outcomes
of assisted reproductive techniques ...
Attenuation of hyperglycemia-associated dyslipidemic, oxidative, cognitive, and inflammatory crises via modulation of neuronal ChEs/NF-κB/COX-2/NOx, and hepatorenal functional deficits by the Tridax procumbens extract
(Elsevier, 2023)
Tridax procumbens (cotton buttons) is a flowering plant with a medicinal reputation for treating infections, wounds, diabetes, and liver and kidney diseases. The present research was conducted to evaluate the possible ...
