Relation of redox and structural alterations of rat skin in the function of chronological aging
Accumulation of oxidative insults on molecular and supramolecular levels could compromise renewal potency and architecture in the aging skin.

Hypoxia is defined as the decline of oxygen availability, depending on environmental supply and cellular consumption rate. The decrease in O2 results in reduction of available energy in facultative aerobes. The response and/or adaptation to hypoxia and other changing environmental conditions can influence the properties and functions of membranes by modifying lipid composition.
Pancreatic cancer is one of the most aggressive cancers whose prognosis is worsened by the poor response to the current chemotherapies. In this study, we investigated the cytotoxic effect of Apigenin, against two pancreatic cell lines, namely Panc1 and PaCa44, harboring different p53 mutations. Apigenin is a flavonoid widely distributed in nature that displays anti-inflammatory and anticancer properties against a variety of cancers. Here we observed that Apigenin exerted a stronger cytotoxic effect against Panc1 cell line in comparison to PaCa44.
