Extraction and characterization of biofunctional lignocellulosic fibers from Pulicaria undulata plant and the effect of alkali treatment on their bio-physicochemical properties by Mohammed, Alsafran

“…In contrast, alkali-treated fibers showed a significant decrease in radical scavenging activity (almost 7–8 fold) and reducing power potential (6-fold) and exhibited no antifungal activity, potentially due to the loss of bioactive components such as lignin and essential oils. …”

Mitigating Cardiotoxicity of Dendrimers: Angiotensin-(1-7) via Its Mas Receptor Ameliorates PAMAM-Induced Cardiac Dysfunction in the Isolated Mammalian Heart by Akhtar, Saghir

“…Aim: The influence of the physiochemical properties of dendrimer nanoparticles on cardiac contractility and hemodynamics are not known. Herein, we investigated (a) the effect of polyamidoamine (PAMAM) dendrimer generation (G7, G6, G5, G4 and G3) and surface chemistry (-NH2, -COOH and -OH) on cardiac function in mammalian hearts following ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury, and (b) determined if any PAMAM-induced cardiotoxicity could be mitigated by Angiotensin-(1-7) (Ang-(1-7), a cardioprotective agent. …”
