Age-related changes in the activity of superoxide dismutase and glutathione peroxidase in the blood of participants of the Chernobyl accident liquidation were studied. According to our findings the people under 30 years old are the most sensitive to irratiation.

Amniotic fluid embolism (AFE) is a rare condition that can have catastrophic maternal and infant consequences. It can lead to rapid multisystem failure and is responsible for a significant portion of maternal deaths. The diagnosis is frequently made late in the pathological process, and the treatment is mainly supportive and infant delivery.

The inhibition of PINK1/Drp1-mediated mitophagy by hyperglycemia leads to impaired osteoblastogenesis in diabetes.

Impaired bone quality and increased fracture risk are cardinal features of the skeleton in diabetes mellitus. Hyperglycemia-induced oxidative stress is proposed as a potential underlying mechanism, but the precise pathogenic mechanism remains incompletely understood. In this investigation, osteoblasts under high glucose exhibited heightened levels of reactive oxygen species, impaired mitochondrial membrane potential, and profound inhibition of late-stage osteoblast differentiation.

Phenology is a major component of animals' breeding, as they need to adjust their breeding timing to match optimal environmental conditions. While the effects of shifting phenology are well-studied on populations, few studies emphasise its ecological causes and consequences at the inter-individual level. Using a 20-year monitoring of more than 2500 breeding events from ~ 500 breeding little penguins (Eudyptula minor), a very asynchronously breeding seabird, we investigated the consequences of late breeding on present and next breeding events.

A nucleolar mechanism suppresses organismal proteostasis by modulating TGFβ/ERK signalling.

Department of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, the Institute for Medical Research Israel-Canada, the Faculty of Medicine, The Hebrew University of Jerusalem, Jerusalem, Israel.

The protein homeostasis (proteostasis) network encompasses a myriad of mechanisms that maintain the integrity of the proteome by controlling various biological functions, including protein folding and degradation. Alas, ageing-associated decline in the efficiency of this network enables protein aggregation and consequently the development of late-onset neurodegenerative disorders, such as Alzheimer's disease. Accordingly, the maintenance of proteostasis through late stages of life bears the promise to delay the emergence of these devastating diseases.

Detrimental effects of terminal heat stress could be mitigated by exogenous application of synthetic compounds by preserving cell membrane integrity and protecting against oxidative damage. A field experiment was conducted to test the application of seven synthetic compounds on wheat growth traits: (1) thiourea (20 mM and 40mM); (2) potassium nitrate (1% and 2%); (3) sodium nitroprusside (400 μg mL-1 and 800μg mL-1 ); (4) dithiothreitol (25 ppm and 50ppm); (5) salicylic acid (100 ppm and 200ppm); (6) thioglycolic acid (200 ppm and 500ppm); and (7) putrescine (4 mM and 6mM). These compounds were applied at the anthesis and grain-filling stages to enhance physio-biochemical traits and yield attributes of wheat (Triticum aestivum ) cvs GW-11 and GW-496 under terminal heat stress.
