Clavulanic Acid Improves Memory Dysfunction and Anxiety Behaviors through Upregulating Glutamatergic Transporters in the Nucleus Accumbens of Mice Repeatedly Exposed to Khat Extract.

The scientists found that clavulanic acid, a β-lactam-containing compound, can improve memory impairment and anxiety-like behaviors caused by khat exposure in mice. This is achieved by upregulating GLT-1 in the nucleus accumbens. This suggests that β-lactam-containing compounds may be effective in reducing the negative effects of khat use.

Systemic Immunomodulatory Effects of Codonopsis pilosula Glucofructan on S180 Solid-Tumor-Bearing Mice.

Researchers investigated the effects of an immunopotentiator called CPG on the immune response in tumor-bearing mice. Results showed that CPG inhibited tumor growth, enhanced immune responses, and induced tumor cell death. These findings contribute to our understanding of the immune system's role in fighting tumors.
