Human hematopoietic prostaglandin D2 synthase (HPGDS) is involved in the production of prostaglandin D2, which participates in various physiological processes, including inflammation, allergic reactions, and sleep regulation. Inhibitors of HPGDS have...

Among the toxic metabolites of the fungal world, those that, due to their strong biological effect, can seriously (even fatally) damage the life processes of humans (and certain groups of animals) stand out. Amatoxin-containing mushrooms and the pois...

Diffusion is one of the key nature processes which plays an important role in respiration, digestion, and nutrient transport in cells. In this regard, the present article aims to review various diffusion approaches used to fabricate different functio...

Propane catalytic oxidation is an important industrial chemical process. However, poor activity is frequently observed for stable C–H bonds, especially for non-noble catalysts in low temperature. Herein, we reported a controlled synthesis of ca...

This study determined the optimum reaction conditions for synthesizing selenium-containing polysaccharides. Polysaccharide IIA (with the highest yield) from Ornithogalum caudatum Ait. (Liliaceae) (OCAPIIA) was extracted and purified. Then, three para...

The aim of this study was to improve the extraction method for urinary organic acids by miniaturizing and automating the process. Currently, manual extraction methods are commonly used, which can be time-consuming and lead to variations in test resul...

Atherosclerosis is a multifactorial, progressive, chronic inflammatory disease. Ultrasound and magnetic resonance imaging are the most accurate predictors of atherosclerotic plaque instability (MRI). Cytokines such as osteopontin, osteoprotegerin, an...

Currently, numerous ongoing studies are investigating the interaction of free radicals with biological systems, such as lipids, DNA and protein. In the present work, synthesis, characterization, antioxidant, DNA binding and molecular docking studies...

In this study, we developed an ultra-performance liquid chromatography-electrospray tandem quadrupole mass spectrometry (UHPLC-ESI-MS/MS) method to simultaneously determine Picroside-I, Picroside-II, Picroside-III, minecoside, and sweroside in rat pl...

Recently, the study of the protective powers of medicinal plants has become the focus of several studies. Attention has been focused on the identification of new molecules with antioxidant and chelating properties to counter reactive oxygen species (...
