Bioactive compounds extracted from marine organisms showed several biological activities. The present study is an extension of our earlier studies where we assessed the antiproliferative and pro-apoptotic activities ethanol, methylene chloride, ethyl acetate, acetone, chloroform crude extracts sponges: Negombata magnifica (NmE) Callyspongia siphonella (CsE) against cancer cells. Herein, are extending previous findings on both sponge species depending alternative methanol extraction method...
Bioactive constituents of numerous marine organisms have been investigated recently for their preclinical and clinical anticancer activity. Three organisms: black-spotted sea cucumber: Pearsonothuria graeffei (Pg), lollyfish: Holothuria atra (Ha), hare: Aplysia dactylomela (Ad), were collected during winter 2019 from Gulf Aqaba, Red Sea, Egypt, macerated with ethanol into three different extracts: PgE, HaE, AdE, where each was in vitro assessed its antiproliferative proapoptotic properties...
Anecdotal reports have proposed that diet might influence the occurrence of seizures.Our objectives were to assess nutritional status in a sample patients with epilepsy and investigate impact nutrition on control.One hundred fifty participated study. To status, sociodemographic characteristics, anthropometric measurements, dietary food intake, 24-hour intake evaluated. Patients answered questions using frequency questionnaire.In epilepsy, there was insufficient water, fiber, potassium,...
Heavy metal contaminated water is a great concern because of its high toxiciy, non-biodegradability, and bioaccumulation. Therefore, non-contaminated fundamental for healthy life. Special attention paid to the health-promoting ingredients germinated whole cereal products. This study aimed (1) examine potentially harmful effects Cu, Mn, Zn on rat livers brains, (2) protective action wheat barley grasses against expected these metals. The rats were treated with by heavy metals (HMs) 60 days....
