Biochemical analysis of the levels of malondialdehyde (MDA) detected a significant increase (p less then 0.0001). Additionally, increase in levels of fasting and postprandial glucose, total cholesterol, triglycerides, and parameters of the liver and renal function tests were detected. This study detected the PPAR-γ2 to be a significant biomarker for type 2 diabetes mellitus.Gibberellic acid from the fungi has been widely used in agriculture. In this study, more than 20 fungal isolates were screened and Paecilomyces sp. ZB shown to produce more gibberellic acid than other fungal isolates. Cow dung was used as low cost substrate for gibberellic acid production in solid state fermentation (SSF). Carbon, nitrogen and ionic sources stimulated gibberellic acid production in SSF. Lactose emerged as the significant carbon source supporting more gibberellic acid production (731 µg/g). Among the nitrogen sources, glycine appeared to influence the production of more gibberellic acid (803 µg/g). The process parameters were optimized to enhance gibberellic acid production using a two-level full factorial design and response surface methodology. The amount of gibberellic acid production was influenced mainly by moisture and pH of the substrate. Gibberellic acid production was 1312 µg/g under the optimized conditions and the predicted response was 1339 µg/g. The gibberellic acid yield increased twofolds after medium optimization. The extracted gibberellic acid was sprayed on the growing Mung bean plant and it stimulated the growth of the plant effectively. To conclude, cow dung is a new alternative to produce gibberellic acid in SSF.Antiphospholipid syndrome is a organized autoimmune disease presented with vascular thrombosis and pregnancy morbidity. The Sapporo classification criteria of APS were revised in 2006 and are used as the main diagnosis guideline, which validity as standard measurements is still in debate. This study observe the clinical and laboratory indices of APS among Saudi patients. This is a retrospective study hospital-based population. The clinical and Laboratory manifestations of diagnosed APS patients from electronical medical records identifies by ICD-9 code 795.79 in the King Saud University Medical City, Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, between 1990 and 2012. We selected patients with ICD-9 code 795.79 as. Sapporo criteria applied to all patients, then divided into cases fulfilled criteria and cases failed the criteria. To notice the difference in clinical and laboratory indices and comorbidities between the two groups, the T-test was performed and Logistic regression for the fulfilled criteria and clinical indices of vascu but not degreed disease severity profiles.Green synthesis of silver nanoparticles has gained great interest among scientists. In view of this data, we conducted this study to identify the ameliorative effect of green synthesis of silver nanoparticles using Nigella sativa extract in diabetic neuropathy induced experimentally. Caspase inhibitor In this study, 50 adult male albino rats were used and they were randomly divided into five groups; the first group was the healthy control group, the second group were the diabetic neuropathy diabetic neuropathy induced, Groups (3-6) diabetic neuropathy induced group and treated with silver nanoparticles, Nigella sativa extract and green synthesized silver nanoparticles using Nigella sativa extract respectively. Biochemical parameters including diabetic, inflammatory and antioxidant biomarkers were evaluated. Brain histopathology was also performed. Results revealed substantial rise in glucose, AGE, aldose reductase with insulin reduction in diabetic neuropathy induced group as compared to healthy control. Also, inflammatory markers increased significantly in diabetic neuropathy induced group. A remarkable change in oxidative status was observed in the same group. Furthermore, significant decline in nitrotyrosin level was observed. Regarding gene expression, we fou
