University of Basra doctoral thesis examines the effect of biologically synthesized nanoparticles for the treatment of osteoporosis
A doctoral thesis at the Faculty of Veterinary Medicine, University of Basra, investigated the effect of green biologically synthesized nanoparticles with isoflavonoid extract from Ginkgo biloba for the treatment of glucocorticoid-induced osteoporosis (Glucocorticoid induced osteoporosis: Physiological and molecular aspects).
The thesis presented by researcher Ayat Rahman Sabih aimed to evaluate the synthesized nanoparticles on some physiological, histological, molecular and biochemical parameters after induction of osteoporosis using glucocorticoids (DXM) in adult male laboratory rats.
The thesis concluded that biosynthesized nanoparticles possess clear therapeutic efficacy compared to the isoflavonoid extract of Ginkgo biloba and vitamin D by improving serological and molecular markers and minimizing histological changes.
The thesis recommended the use of chemical nanoparticles in the study in addition to studying the effect of estrogen level before and after menopause in women and the use of Ginkgo biloba extract to treat cancerous diseases.
