Parkinson's disease (PD) is a pathological state characterized by a combined set of abnormal movements including slow motion, resting tremors, profound stiffness of skeletal muscles, or obvious abnormalities in posture and gait, together with significant behavioral changes. Until now, no single therapeutic modality was able to provide a complete cure for PD. This work was a trial to assess the immunomodulatory effects of canagliflozin with or without levodopa/carbidopa on rotenone-induced parkinsonism in Balb/c mice.

Sulpiride (Sul) is a medication that blocks dopamine D receptors. It is used to treat gastrointestinal disturbances and has antipsychotic effects depending on the dose given. Sulpiride is subject to P-glycoprotein efflux, resulting in limited bioavailability and erratic absorption.

Article Synopsis
  • This review summarizes various chemical methods to transform renewable resources into benzenoid aromatics, considering materials like lignocellulose, carbohydrates, fats, and fermentation products.
  • Two main approaches are highlighted: catalytic fast pyrolysis, which operates at high temperatures and produces biochar, gases, and aromatic oils, and a multi-step conversion process using platform chemicals derived from lignocellulose or sugars.
  • Significant research has centered on furan compounds, with successful applications leading to the construction of large-scale plants for the conversion of lignocellulose to xylene, including one that has started operations in 2023.

Inflammation is a vascular response that occurs when the immune system responds to a range of stimuli including viruses, allergens, damaged cells, and toxic substances. Inflammation is accompanied by redness, heat, swelling, discomfort, and loss of function. Natural products have been shown to have considerable therapeutic benefits, and they are increasingly being regarded as feasible alternatives for clinical preventative, diagnostic, and treatment techniques.

Reverse water-gas shift (RWGS) reaction has attracted much attention as a potential approach for CO valorization via the production of synthesis gas, especially over Fe-modified supported Cu catalysts on CeO. However, most studies have focused solely on investigating the RWGS reaction over catalysts with high Cu and Fe loadings, thus leading to an increase in the complexity of the catalytic system and, hence, preventing the gain of any reliable information about the nature of the active sites and reaction mechanism. In this work, a CeO-supported single-atom Cu catalyst modified with iron was synthesized and evaluated for the RWGS reaction.
