In 71 patient with bronchial asthma (BA), lipid peroxidation (LPO) was studied together with the condition of the antioxidant system (AOS) as related to the degree of severity of the illness, with results evaluated of conventional therapy versus complex treatment involving the use of cytochrome C. Established in the above series was intensification of LPO in the presence of inhibition of activity of SOD enzymes and catalase, their degree dependent on severity of the condition. Unlike basic therapy, employment of cytochrome C has been found to be associated with a more complete restoration of balance in the LPO/AOS system, especially so in steroid-independent form of BA.

Gastric ulcers (GUs) represent a common gastrointestinal disorder characterized by mucosal damage and inflammation, often precipitated by factors such as Helicobacter pylori infection and the consumption of COX inhibitors. This comprehensive review investigates the role of oxidative stress and inflammation in the pathogenesis of GUs and assesses the potential therapeutic effects of Punica granatum (pomegranate, Pg) supplementation. Utilizing a series of experimental models, including indomethacin, aspirin, and alcohol-induced ulcers, we demonstrate that Pg extracts possess significant gastroprotective properties.

Pesticides can adversely affect reproduction by causing congenital abnormalities, fetal demise, and infertility. The reproductive toxicity of coragen, a modified ryanodine receptor-targeting insecticide with chlorantraniliprole concentrations of 20%, was examined in male rats. Twenty-one healthy male rats were randomly assigned to one of three groups: the control group, two orally administered with low (500 mg/kg) and high (1000 mg/kg) doses of coragen for 8 weeks.

This study investigates the physiological and morphological responses of wheat (Triticum aestivum) and pea (Pisum sativum) grown in a mixture of lunar soil (LS) simulant and organic soil (OS). The experiment compared the growth of both pea and wheat in 100% organic soil (OS) and a 3:2 mixture of OS and LS (OS: LS). Wheat exhibited increased branching and root growth in OS: LS, while pea plants showed enhanced aerial elongation and altered branch morphology.

Bivalves have been extensively utilized as sentinel biomonitoring species, organisms used to predict the extent and severity of environmental contamination. However, significant knowledge gaps remain regarding the operationalization and application of indicator species for radioactive contaminants in the marine environment. Dose-dependent organism responses with validated and practical measurement protocols need to be identified for use within biomonitoring frameworks.
