Oligomeric and phosphorylated alpha-synuclein as potential CSF biomarkers for Parkinson’s disease
( BioMed Central , 2016 , Article)Background Despite decades of intensive research, to date, there is no accepted diagnosis for Parkinson’s disease (PD) based on biochemical analysis of blood or CSF. However, neurodegeneration in the brains of PD patients ... -
Olive agroforestry shapes rhizosphere microbiome networks associated with annual crops and impacts the biomass production under low-rainfed conditions
( Frontiers Media , 2022 , Article)Agroforestry (AF) is a promising land-use system to mitigate water deficiency, particularly in semi-arid areas. However, the belowground microbes associated with crops below trees remain seldom addressed. This study aimed ... -
Olive Leaves Extract and Oleuropein Improve Insulin Sensitivity in 3T3-L1 Cells and in High-Fat Diet-Treated Rats via PI3K/AkT Signaling Pathway
