( MDPI , 2023 , Article Review)The increasing popularity of electronic cigarettes (e-cigarettes) as an alternative to conventional tobacco products has raised concerns regarding their potential adverse effects. The cardiovascular system undergoes intricate ... -
Zebrafish as a Model for Anticancer Nanomedicine Studies.
( MDPI , 2021 , Article Review)Nanomedicine is a new approach to fight against cancer by the development of anticancer nanoparticles (NPs) that are of high sensitivity, specificity, and targeting ability to detect cancer cells, such as the ability of ... -
Zebrafish larvae as a model to demonstrate secondary iron overload.
( Wiley , 2018 , Article)Thalassemia is the most common genetically inherited blood disorder arising from a defect in hemoglobin production, resulting in ineffective erythropoiesis and severe hemolytic anemia. While transfusion therapy corrects ... -
Ziziphus nummularia attenuates the malignant phenotype of human pancreatic cancer cells: Role of ros
( MDPI AG , 2021 , Article)Pancreatic cancer (PC) is the fourth leading cause of all cancer-related deaths. Despite major improvements in treating PC, low survival rate remains a major challenge, indicating the need for alternative approaches, ... -
Ziziphus nummularia Inhibits Inflammation-Induced Atherogenic Phenotype of Human Aortic Smooth Muscle Cells
( Hindawi Limited , 2017 , Article)Cardiovascular disease (CVD) continues to be the leading cause of death worldwide. Atherosclerosis is a CVD characterized by plaque formation resulting from inflammation-induced insults to endothelial cells, monocytes, and ... -
