Renoprotective activity of Ficus carica seed oil
Abstract
Ficus carica seed oil possesses properties that can be used by everyone and can be integrated into people's diets. In addition to its accessibility, its long-term use has both protective and therapeutic effects against kidney damage. Further studies should elucidate the molecular mechanisms underlying its efficacy and determine its pharmacokinetic properties.
