"Professor Dr. Merza Homady at the department of Biomedical Sciences, is giving a seminar entitled “ Pheromonal compounds and Histological Alteration of Castrated Mose Preputial Gland in Relation to Eruca sativa Extract ” on 20th April 2020 at 01:00 PM to 01:30 PM through an online conference.

This study included the effects of 3mg/kg/day of Eruca sativa on: Melanocortin-5-receptor (MC5R); * Total lipid compounds, * Essential pheromonal compounds and * The Histological structure of the castrated mice preputial glands for 42 days of treatment were investigated. This treatment is resulted in: A- A significant increase of MC5R level in preputial gland of castrated treated animals with Eruca sativa as compared with the control group (P<0.01). B- It has marked effects on the: total lipid compounds, essential pheromonal compounds and histological restoration of the preputial gland structures in castrated treated subjects.C- This treatment was able to restore four compounds (out of six) of the essential pheromones which are:1- α.-Farnesene and (E)-α. - Farnesene 2- (1-Tetradecanol) 3- Tetradecanol acetate) 4- (1- Hexadecanol acetate). D- Eruca sativa revealed was able to restore the gland activity. "
