Article Synopsis
  • Renal function disruption can significantly impact overall health, making it crucial to understand how harmful substances like acrylamide (ACR) affect the kidneys.
  • This study examined how ACR causes kidney damage by targeting specific proteins and pathways, and also assessed the protective effects of green-synthesized zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZNO-MONPs) over a 60-day period with various treatment groups.
  • Results showed that ZNO-MONPs effectively reduced ACR-induced kidney tissue damage and oxidative stress, suggesting they could be a potential protective treatment against ACR's harmful effects on renal function.

Article Synopsis
  • The study investigates the harmful effects of oral exposure to acrylamide (AD) on lung function, focusing on how it relates to inflammation, oxidative stress, and cell death (pyroptosis).
  • It uses a rat model to show that AD lowers specific miRNA expressions, leading to increased cell death and damage in lung tissue, as well as the activation of harmful proteins.
  • The introduction of zinc oxide nanoparticles combined with moringa extract shows potential protective effects against the toxicity of acrylamide, enhancing the miRNA responses and reducing lung damage.

Article Synopsis
  • - The insecticide fenpropathrin (FNE) has been linked to neurotoxic effects similar to those seen in Parkinson's disease, affecting dopaminergic markers and causing oxidative stress in rat models.
  • - A study involved 40 male rats divided into four groups to examine the effects of FNE exposure and the protective role of curcumin-encapsulated chitosan nanoparticles (CRM-Chs-NPs) over 60 days.
  • - Results showed that FNE led to various harmful changes in the brain, while CRM-Chs-NPs helped reduce toxicity by improving mitochondrial function, enhancing antioxidant activity, and supporting anti-inflammatory responses.

Fenpropathrin (FN), a pyrethroid has been linked to potential pulmonary toxic effects to humans via incident direct or indirect ingestion. Thus, we aimed to the investigate the underlying mechanisms of lung toxicity upon exposure to FN in the rat model, besides studying whether curcumin (CCM) and curcumin-loaded chitosan nanoformulation (CCM-Chs) can mitigate FN-induced lung damage. Six distinct groups, namely, control, CCM, CCM-Chs, FN, and CCM + FN, CCM-Chs + FN were assigned separately.

In the advanced stages of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), diabetic liver damage is a common complication that can devastate a patient's quality of life. The present study investigated the ability of liposomal berberine (Lip-BBR) to aid in ameliorating hepatic damage and steatosis, insulin homeostasis, and regulating lipid metabolism in type 2 diabetes (T2DM) and the possible pathways by which it does so. Liver tissue microarchitectures and immunohistochemical staining were applied during the study.
