Colorimetry-Based Detection of Biomarkers in Exhaled Breath for Predicting COVID-19 Disease
( Qatar University Press , 2021 , Poster)Exhaled breath is the biological medium that carries relevant medical information and can be used to analyse biomarkers characteristic for detecting abnormal health status. Thus, by systematically analysing the interaction ... -
Comparative study of the effect of oleuropein and hydroxytyrosol rich extracts on the reproductive toxicity induced by bisphenol A in male rats: biochemical, histopathological, and molecular analyses
( Springer , 2023 , Article)Bisphenol A, or BPA, goes into the composition of a large number of products including sunglasses, infant’s feeding bottles, receipts, or food packaging. Nowadays, there is a growing evidence that BPA may be at the origin ... -
Disturbed hemodynamics and oxidative stress interaction in endothelial dysfunction and AAA progression: Focus on Nrf2 pathway
( Elsevier , 2023 , Article Review)Hemodynamic shear stress is one of the major factors that are involved in the pathogenesis of many cardiovascular diseases including atherosclerosis and abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA), through its modulatory effect on the ... -
Impact of physical exercise on gut microbiome, inflammation, and the pathobiology of metabolic disorders
( Society for Biomedical Diabetes Research , 2019 , Article)BACKGROUND: The gastrointestinal tract (GIT) harbors a complex and diverse microbial composition that outnumbers our own body cells and their gene contents. These microbes play a significant role in host metabolism and ... -
Mitoquinone supplementation alleviates oxidative stress and pathologic outcomes following repetitive mild traumatic brain injury at a chronic time point
( Elsevier , 2022 , Article)Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is a major cause of disability and death. Mild TBI (mTBI) constitutes ~75% of all TBI cases. Repeated exposure to mTBI (rmTBI), leads to the exacerbation of the symptoms compared to single mTBI. ... -
Nano-Engineering in Traumatic Brain Injury
( Wiley , 2023 , Book chapter)Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is a leading cause of mortality and chronic disability worldwide TBI involves an initial primary phase triggered by an impactful force to the brain and a subsequent secondary pathological phase. ... -
Phytochemicals as Micronutrients: What Is their Therapeutic Promise in the Management of Alzheimer’s Disease?
( Springer Singapore , 2022 , Book chapter)Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is a debilitating neurodegenerative disease with devastating outcomes to patients and exhaustive burdens to healthcare systems. Alzheimer’s disease has always been the focus of extensive research ... -
Phytochemicals as Micronutrients: What Is their Therapeutic Promise in the Management of Traumatic Brain Injury?
( Springer Singapore , 2022 , Book chapter)Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is one of the key causes of deaths and disabilities worldwide. TBI progresses in two phases. The primary phase of injury is the direct result of the physical damage caused by the external force ... -
Reactive oxygen species (ROS) in cancer pathogenesis and therapy: An update on the role of ROS in anticancer action of benzophenanthridine alkaloids
( Elsevier , 2021 , Article)Reactive oxygen species play crucial role in biological homeostasis and pathogenesis of human diseases including cancer. In this line, now it has become evident that ROS level/concentration is a major factor in the growth, ... -
Salinity inhibits seed germination of perennial halophytes Limonium stocksii and Suaeda fruticosa by reducing water uptake and ascorbate dependent antioxidant system
( Elsevier B.V. , 2014 , Article)Information about production and detoxification of reactive oxygen species during seed germination of halophytes under saline conditions is scanty. We therefore studied levels of common oxidative stress markers, antioxidant ... -
Silicon Enhances Morpho–Physio–Biochemical Responses in Arsenic Stressed Spinach (Spinacia oleracea L.) by Minimizing Its Uptake
( Springer , 2022 , Article)Soil contamination with toxic heavy metals [such as arsenic (As)] is becoming a serious global problem due to rapid development of social economy. Silicon (Si), being an important fertilizer element, has been found effective ... -
Therapeutic potential of flavonoids in cancer: ROS-mediated mechanisms
( Elsevier , 2022 , Article)Cancer is a leading cause of morbidity and mortality around the globe. Reactive oxygen species (ROS) play contradicting roles in cancer incidence and progression. Antioxidants have attracted attention as emerging therapeutic ... -
Understanding diabetes-induced cardiomyopathy from the perspective of renin angiotensin aldosterone system
( Springer , 2021 , Article)Experimental and clinical evidence suggests that diabetic subjects are predisposed to a distinct cardiovascular dysfunction, known as diabetic cardiomyopathy (DCM), which could be an autonomous disease independent of ...
