This study, therefore, investigated the effects of consumption of selected local rice varieties on some markers of insulin resistance and obesity using Drosophila... Continue here
Making the optimal cancer treatment choice can be challenging and more challenging is harnessing the therapeutic potential of bioactive molecules isolated from plants. The mitochondrion is the main organelle of oxidative stress in cells. Increased permeability of the inner mitochondrial membrane is a key phenomenon in cell death. The protein transferrin (Tf) was...
