ABSTRACT The green synthesis of metal oxide nanoparticles (MONPs) using plant‐based resources has gained significant traction as an environmentally benign, cost‐effective, and scalable alternative to traditional chemical and physical methods. This review comprehensively explores the plant‐mediated synthesis routes for a variety of MONPs, including CuO,

Ouabain‐induced hypertension in rats: Mechanisms, variability and translational implications
Abstract Ouabain‐induced hypertension is a multifactorial and condition‐dependent phenomenon involving coordinated actions across vascular, renal and central nervous system pathways. At the vascular level, ouabain inhibits Na⁺/K⁺‐ATPase, particularly the α2‐isoform, leading to elevated intracellular Ca2⁺, enhanced vasoconstriction and structural ...

DISCOVERY OF A HIGHLY ACTIVE MOLLUSCICIDAL EXTRACT AGAINST LAND SNAILS, FROM Nerium Oleander L. [PDF]
Nerium oleander L. is the widest spread ornamental plant; it is cultivated every where in Egypt as well as in the whole world. We noticed that snails living very close to the plant do not approach it.

Impact of Consuming ‘Toxic’ Monarch Caterpillars on Adult Chinese Mantid Mass Gain and Fecundity
Predators that feed on chemically-defended prey often experience non-lethal effects that result in learned avoidance of the prey species. Some predators are able to consume toxic prey without ill-effect.

New CNS depressant cardenolide glycoside from the roots of Nerium oleander
A new central nervous system (CNS) depressant cardenolide glycoside named nerioleanderoside (1) was isolated from active n-butanol fraction of the aqueous- ethanolic (5:95 v/v) extract of the fresh dried roots of Nerium oleander.

Chemical cues that attract cannibalistic cane toad (Rhinella marina) larvae to vulnerable embryos
Chemical cues produced by late-stage embryos of the cane toad (Rhinella marina) attract older conspecific larvae, which are highly cannibalistic and can consume an entire clutch.
