The Combined Effect of Garlic (Allium sativum) and Turmeric (Curcuma longa) Extracts to Reduce the Adverse Effects of Aflatoxin B1 in Rats by Hadi Sarir, Saeedeh Zakerian, masood didarkhah

“…In recent years, the study of the effect of plants and their extracts and compounds on things such as reducing microbial growth and the effect on microorganisms has increased dramatically. The aim of this research is to investigate the effect of the combination of garlic and turmeric extract on the amount of plasma aspartate aminotransferase, alanine aminotransferase, alkaline phosphatase, the amount of triiodothyronine, thyroxine, total antioxidant capacity, and malondialdehyde in rats intoxicated with aflatoxin B1.Materials and Methods: In this research, 64 male Wistar rats with an average body weight of 250-300 g were used to evaluate the synergistic effect of garlic and turmeric extract against the damage caused by aflatoxin B1 in the form of a completely randomized design as a factorial experiment (2×2×2). …”

Feiguin, Jihene Aloulou, Jihene Aloulou, Nouha Bouayed Abdelmoula, Hayet Sellami, Hayet Sellami

“…While bacteria have traditionally been the focus of gut microbiome studies, recent evidence suggests that fungal communities (mycobiota) may also play a crucial role in modulating health, particularly in neuropsychiatric disorders.ObjectiveThis review aims to provide a comprehensive overview of current knowledge on the relationship between the gut mycobiome and neuropsychiatric disorders, exploring the potential of targeting fungal communities as a novel therapeutic strategy.MethodsWe summarized recent findings from metagenomic analyses that characterize the diversity and composition of gut mycobiota and discuss how these communities interact with the host and other microorganisms via the gut-brain axis. Key methodologies for studying mycobiota, such as high-throughout sequencing and bioinformatics approaches, were also reviewed to highlight advances in the field.ResultsEmerging research links gut mycobiota dysbiosis to conditions such as schizophrenia, Alzheimer’s disease, autism spectrum disorders, bipolar disorder, and depression. …”

Effect of Chickpea Straw Silage Processing with Urea, Molasses and Cellulase Enzyme on Chemical Composition, Gas Production, Ruminal and intestinal Digestibility by Zahra Abbasinavand, Jamal Seifdavati, Mojtaba Alipour einaldin, hossein abdibenemar, Farzad Mirzaei Aghjehgheshlagh, reza seyedsharifi

“…Adding molasses as an energy-generating part and urea as a non-protein nitrogen source simultaneously provides the rumen microorganisms with a source of energy and protein. In general, the addition of enzymes to the diet is used for the purpose of supplementing and compensating the defects of the enzyme system of the ruminant’s digestive system, removing anti-nutritional substances and increasing the availability of nutrients in the animal body. …”

Zelenskaya, Irina B. Nektarevskaya, Alina V. Sergeeva, Nikolay E. Korovaykin, Svetlana A. Lebedeva

“…Introduction: The combination treatment of patients with dentition problems including endodontic-periodontal lesions (EPL) is known to widely involve anti-inflammatory drugs, including non-steroidal anti-inflammatory agents, and antimicrobial drugs, in particular antibiotics and antiseptics, from which the former often lead to the development of gastro- and neuropathy, lesions of kidneys and liver, as well as the cardiovascular system, and the latter, in addition to serious side effects, lead to the development of steady resistance of pathogenic microorganisms and dysbacteriosis. This necessitates search for and development of new molecules with a wide range of therapeutic effects aimed to block the infectious and inflammatory process and to restore the functional ability of teeth in EPLs as much as possible (depending on a lesion severity). …”
