A common anthracycline antibiotic used to treat cancer patients is doxorubicin (DOX). One of the effects of DOX therapy is skeletal muscle fatigue. Our goal in this research was to study the beneficial effect of exercise on DOX-induced damaged muscle fibers and compare the effect of different exercise strategies (prophylactic, post- toxicity and combined) on DOX toxicity. Five groups were created from 40 male rats: group I, co...

Bisphenol A (BPA) is a widely used endocrine disruptor that represents a significant risk to male reproductive function. Zinc (Zn) is vital for appropriate development of testes and to guarantee optimal testicular function and spermatogenesis. Our goal was to investigate if zinc oxide (ZnO), either in conventional or nanoformulation, could safeguard adult male rats’ reproductive performance against the damaging effects of BPA....

The distinct and species-specific chemical compounds found on the insect cuticle have demonstrated effectiveness in various applications, including species identification. Accurate identification of fly species becomes challenging when only damaged empty puparial cases are available, making it difficult to use traditional morphological and molecular identification methods. This study aimed to analyze the chemical compositions...
