From anthelmintic to neuro‐oncology: A systematic review of mebendazole repurposing for brain tumour therapy

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Aim Mebendazole (MBZ), a benzimidazole anthelmintic with established clinical use, has emerged as a repurposing candidate for primary brain tumours due to its multimodal anticancer actions and central nervous system penetrance. This systematic review synthesizes preclinical and clinical evidence evaluating MBZ's efficacy, mechanisms of action ...

Hyperbranched poly‐L‐lysine surface‐engineered bioprosthetic heart valves with anti‐calcification, anti‐infection, and durability

BMEMat, EarlyView.
The challenges of bioprosthetic heart valves (BHV) with respect to calcification, infection, and poor durability are tackled by surface engineering of hyperbranched poly‐L‐lysine (HBPL), providing a translational solution to improve long‐term valve performance.

Protective Effect of Phytic Acid in Cardiovascular Diseases: A Systematic Review

ChemFoodChem, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) are a cluster of ailments that impact the heart and blood vessels and are a primary public health problem of mortality on a global scale. Phytic acid, a dietary constituent frequently present in foods like seeds, has been linked to many pharmacological attributes, including anti‐cancer, antioxidant, anti ...

Lean ZSF1 rats in basic research on heart failure with preserved ejection fraction

ESC Heart Failure, Volume 12, Issue 2, Page 1474-1478, April 2025.
Abstract Aims ZSF1 obese rats harbouring two mutant leptin receptor alleles (Leprcp and Leprfa) develop metabolic syndrome and heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF), making them a widely used animal model in cardiometabolic research.

Biochemical characterisation of a Kunitz-type inhibitor from Tamarindus indica L. seeds and its efficacy in reducing plasma leptin in an experimental model of obesity

Journal of Enzyme Inhibition and Medicinal Chemistry, 2018
A trypsin inhibitor isolated from tamarind seed (TTI) has satietogenic effects in animals, increasing the cholecystokinin (CCK) in eutrophy and reducing leptin in obesity. We purified TTI (pTTI), characterised, and observed its effect upon CCK and leptin

Dopamine depletion in wistar rats with epilepsy

Brazilian Journal of Biology
Abstract The dopamine content in cerebral structures has been related to neuronal excitability and several approaches have been used to study this phenomenon during seizure vulnerability period. In the present work, we describe the effects of dopamine depletion after the administration of 6-hidroxidopamine (6-OHDA) into the substantia nigra pars ...

Semaglutide normalizes increased cardiomyocyte calcium transients in a rat model of high fat diet‐induced obesity

ESC Heart Failure, Volume 12, Issue 2, Page 1386-1397, April 2025.
Sequeira et al. reveal how the glucagon‐like peptide‐1 receptor agonist (GLP‐1‐RA) semaglutide restores cardiomyocyte function in rats subjected to a high‐fat/high‐fructose diet (HFD). Employing fluorescence‐ and patch‐clamp technology in isolated cardiac myocytes, they demonstrate that semaglutide reverses HFD‐induced activation of L‐type calcium ...

CardiLect: A combined cross‐species lectin histochemistry protocol for the automated analysis of cardiac remodelling

ESC Heart Failure, Volume 12, Issue 2, Page 1398-1415, April 2025.
Abstract Background Cardiac remodelling, a crucial aspect of heart failure, is commonly investigated in preclinical models by quantifying cardiomyocyte cross‐sectional area (CSA) and microvascular density (MVD) via histological methods, such as immunohistochemistry.
