This study investigated the effect of p-methoxycinnamic acid (p-MCA) on plasma glucose and insulin concentrations in normal and streptozotocin-induced diabetic rats. In both fasting and glucose-loading conditions, an oral administration of p-MCA (40-100 mg/kg) significantly decreased plasma glucose and also

This study focused on identifying possible new options derived from natural sources for the treatment of bacterial infections. Several natural products were investigated for their potential in modulating Shigella-host-cell interactions. The proliferation of Shigella sonnei was effectively inhibited inside HEp-2
