Physiological, metabolic and hormonal responses of two Pinus spp., with contrasting susceptibility to brown-spot needle blight disease.

The study explored needle blight disease in two pine species. Pinus pinea, resistant, had higher stomatal conductance and increased content of certain compounds. Pinus radiata, susceptible, showed more severe symptoms and increased content of different compounds. This research offers insights into defense mechanisms against the disease. (41 words)

Nigella sativa oil restores hormonal levels, and endocrine signals among thyroid, ovarian, and uterine tissues of female Wistar rats following sodium fluoride toxicity.

The study found that Nigella sativa L. oil (NSO) can protect against damage to the thyroid, ovarian, and uterine tissues caused by sodium fluoride (NaF). NSO restores hormonal balance, reduces oxidative damage and inflammation, and improves tissue structure.
