“…Hence, the extensive therapeutic benefits exerted by N. sativa L. may be attributed to TQ ( Alagawany et al, 2021 ). Previous studies have shown that TQ possesses various pharmacological properties, including antioxidant ( Abd-Elkareem et al, 2021 ), antimicrobial ( Mouwakeh et al, 2018 ), antihypertensive ( Enayatfard et al, 2018 ), antidiabetic ( Bule et al, 2020 ), lipid-lowering ( Majdalawieh et al, 2021 ), neuroprotective ( Abulfadl et al, 2018 ), gastroprotective ( Bukar et al, 2017 ), anticancer ( Edris, 2021 ), and anti-inflammatory ( Alkharfy et al, 2018 ; Ahmad et al, 2020 ). Given the potential health benefits of TQ, the present study aimed to examine the available evidence on its anti-inflammatory effects in atherosclerosis via signaling pathway modulation, and to highlight its potential toxicity.…”
