Objective: To study the mechanisms of curcumin alleviating oxidative stress and spleen apoptosis induced by overtraining in rats by regulating Kelch-like ECH-associated protein-1 (Keap1)-nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 (Nrf2)-antioxidant response element (ARE) signaling pathway.

Methods: Male Wistar rats of 7 weeks old were divided into control group (C group, 12), overtraining group (OM group, 11), curcumin + overtraining group (COM group, 14). The C Group did not undergo any exercise intervention.

Article Synopsis
  • Third-generation synchrotron radiation X-ray phase-contrast microscopy (XPCM) enhances image edges and allows for high-contrast imaging of low-Z materials due to the unique spatial coherence of X-rays.
  • The study analyzed the microstructures of adhesives at the interface and their penetration in wood and bamboo composites using XPCM at the Shanghai Synchrotron Radiation Facility (SSRF).
  • Findings suggest that synchrotron radiation XPCM could be a crucial tool for precision detection in wood-based panel manufacturing.

CT is widespread non-destructive detection technique for wood materials, and the density measurement is a key role during this application. In the present report, the use of CT for air-dry density measurement of wood and bamboo is described. The authors found that there were marked linear correlations between air-dry density (0.
