Alzheimer’s disease (AD), a progressive neurodegenerative disorder, is marked by the pathological accumulation of amyloid-β plaques and tau neurofibrillary tangles, both of which disrupt neuronal communication and function. Emerging evidence highlights the role of extracellular vesicles (EVs) as key mediators of intercellular communication, particu...
Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) is an aggressive subtype of breast cancer that lacks targeted therapeutic options due to the absence of estrogen, progesterone and HER2 receptors. The present study explores the anti-cancer potential of Plumbago zeylanica L. (P. zeylanica), a medicinal plant known for its diverse pharmacological properties. Usin...
Background/Objectives: Amyloid-β (Aβ) plaque accumulation, oxidative stress, and cholinergic dysfunction are hallmarks of Alzheimer’s disease (AD), a neurodegenerative disability that progresses over time, ultimately resulting in the loss of neurons. The side effects and limitations of current synthetic drugs have shifted attention toward natural a...
Knowledge of genetic variability within and among types and breeds of dromedary (Camelus dromedarius L.) can be a valuable asset in selective breeding of desirable characteristics and will shed light on their origin, dynamics of domestication, and dispersion. Variability in an 809 bp segment of the mtDNA genome was measured within and among dromeda...
Candidiasis, caused by opportunistic fungal pathogens of the Candida genus, poses a significant threat to immunocompromised individuals. Natural compounds derived from medicinal plants have gained attention as potential sources of anti-fungal agents. Ajwa dates (Phoenix dactylifera L.) have been recognized for their diverse phytochemical compositio...
Introduction: Hyperphosphorylation of tau is an important event in Alzheimer’s disease (AD) pathogenesis, leading to the generation of “neurofibrillary tangles,” a histopathological hallmark associated with the onset of AD and related tauopathies. Microtubule-affinity regulating kinase 4 (MARK4) is an evolutionarily conserved Ser-Thr (S/T) kinase t...

In recent years, bacterial pathogens have developed resistance to antimicrobial agents that have created a global threat to human health and environment. As a novel approach to combating antimicrobial resistance (AMR), targeting bacteria’s virulent traits that can be explained by quorum sensing (QS) is considered to be one of the most promising app...
Malaria and schistosomiasis are two major parasitic diseases that remain leading causes of morbidity and mortality worldwide. Co-infections of these two parasites are common in the tropics, where both diseases are endemic. The clinical consequences of schistosomiasis and malaria are determined by a variety of host, parasitic, and environmental vari...
Homeostasis between protein synthesis and degradation is a critical biological function involving a lot of precise and intricate regulatory systems. The ubiquitin-proteasome pathway (UPP) is a large, multi-protease complex that degrades most intracellular proteins and accounts for about 80% of cellular protein degradation. The proteasome, a massive...
The epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) has been shown to be extremely important in numerous signaling pathways, particularly those involved in cancer progression. Many therapeutic inhibitors, consisting of both small molecules and monoclonal antibodies, have been developed to target inflammatory, triple-negative and metastatic breast cancer. W...

Toll-like receptors (TLRs) are one of the major sensors to regulate innate immunity. It is present in inactive form within immune cells. However, after recognizing the conserved region of the foreign body, it gets activated by the foreign body, such as bacteria, viruses, fungus, etc. Recently, it is reported that apart from participating in innate...
Toll-like receptors (TLR) are one of the most-studied receptors for their role in innate immunity. TLRs are reported to binds with conserved pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMPS). TLRs and PAMPS interaction leads to several downstream proteins' activation, which further signaled to the various transcription factors. Moreover, these transcr...
A new record of a marble trout mtDNA haplotype known to be restricted to Adriatic basin (called marmoratus lineage within Salmo trutta complex) has been reported from Eşen Stream in the Aegean Sea basin of southeastern Turkey, based on sequence data of the mitochondrial DNA control region.
