Renal tubular epithelial cell senescence plays a critical role in promoting and accelerating kidney aging and age-related renal fibrosis. Senescent cells not only lose their self-repair ability, but also can transform into senescence-associated secretory phenotype (SASP) to trigger inflammation and fibrogenesis. Recent studies show that mitochondrial dysfunction is critical for renal tubular cell senescence and kidney aging, and calcium overload and abnormal calcium-dependent kinase activities are involved in mitochondrial dysfunction-associated senescence.

As previous step, a novel polydopamine functionalized PDA@MG adsorbent material has been successfully prepared, which was characterized by fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscope (TEM), and vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM). Based on this novel material, a new magnetic solid phase extraction (MSPE) method coupled with high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) has been established for the determination of triazole fungicides in water samples.

However, enantiomerization (the reversible conversion of one enantiomer into the other) related to soil microorganism is rarely understood. For better understanding, S-triadimefon and R-triadimefon enantiopure were incubated in different soils with different pH value.
