The Influence of Soaking Duration of Artificial Chitosan from by Product Frozening Shrimp on the Effectiveness of Fresh Quality Tilapia (Oreochromis Niloticus) by Ayu Diana, Marnida Yusfiani, Anggi Anshori

“…Chitosan as a natural preservative is an alternative because it is synthesized from shrimp shells and from invertebrate animal shells. Shrimp shell containing chemical compounds chitin and chitosan is a waste that is easily obtained and available in large quantities, which has not been utilized optimally, therefore it is necessary to utilize shrimp waste into chitosan as a preservation of freshness quality in tilapia. …”

Protective Effect of Adipose-Derived Mesenchymal Stem Cell Secretome against Hepatocyte Apoptosis Induced by Liver Ischemia-Reperfusion with Partial Hepatectomy Injury by Zhihui Jiao, Yajun Ma, Yue Wang, Tao Liu, Qianzhen Zhang, Xiaoning Liu, Chenxi Piao, Boyang Liu, Hongbin Wang

“…Consistent with this, P53, Bax, Fas, and Fasl mRNA and protein levels were markedly decreased, while Bcl-2 was significantly increased in the animals treated with ADSCs and ADSC-secretome. Our findings indicate that ADSCs exert therapeutic effects in a paracrine manner through their secretome, which can be a viable alternative to cell-based regenerative therapies.…”

Anti-Parkinson Activity of Petroleum Ether Extract of Ficus religiosa (L.) Leaves by Jitendra O. Bhangale, Sanjeev R. Acharya

“…In the present study, we evaluated anti-Parkinson’s activity of petroleum ether extract of Ficus religiosa (PEFRE) leaves in haloperidol and 6 hydroxydopamine (6-OHDA) induced experimental animal models. In this study, effects of Ficus religiosa (100, 200, and 400 mg/kg, p.o.) were studied using in vivo behavioral parameters like catalepsy, muscle rigidity, and locomotor activity and its effects on neurochemical parameters (MDA, CAT, SOD, and GSH) in rats. …”

Rationale for the Use of Cord Blood in Hypoxic-Ischaemic Encephalopathy by Izabela Zdolińska-Malinowska, Dariusz Boruczkowski, Dominika Hołowaty, Paweł Krajewski, Emilian Snarski

“…Mechanisms for the neuroprotective effects of CB stem cells include antiapoptotic and anti-inflammatory actions, stimulation of angiogenesis, production of trophic factors, and mitochondrial donation. In several animal models of HIE, CB decreased oxidative stress, cell death markers, CD4+ T cell infiltration, and microglial activation; restored normal brain metabolic activity; promoted neurogenesis; improved myelination; and increased the proportion of mature oligodendrocytes, neuron numbers in the motor cortex and somatosensory cortex, and brain weight. …”
