Dynamics of changes in the processes of the lipids free-radical peroxide oxidation (LPO), state of the monooxygenase system (MOS) and system of anti-oxidant protection (SAOP) in the liver and blood of rats under multiple peroral and inhalatory expositions of anti-diabetic drugs--dicarboxylic acids derivatives: phensuccinalum (PhS) and diacamph (Dc) in toxic and sub-toxic doses is studied. It has been found that one of the key biochemical mechanisms which determines the early signs of the toxic damage in the cells and organism under the effect of certain doses/concentrations of PhS (500 and 100 mg/kg, 20.2 mg/m3) and Dc (1000 mg/kg) consists in intensification of the free-radical processes, including, in particular, LPO combined with activation of MOGS and inhibition of SAOP in microsomal fraction of the liver. The high significance of changes of researched parameters for an assessment or forecasting of toxicity of dicarboxylic acids derivates is shown. Unlike the liver, the PhS and Dc impact on the blood caused changes of compensatory-adaptive nature in the LPO and SAOP systems.

Synergistic therapy combining photothermal therapy (PTT) and chemodynamic therapy (CDT) has proven to be a highly effective strategy for cancer treatment. However, PTT heavily relies on the accumulation of therapeutic agents at the tumor site. The peroxidase (POD) activity of common catalysts can be rapidly exhausted during the accumulation process, prior to laser intervention, thereby diminishing the synergistic enhancement effect of the combined therapy.

Background: Changes in cerebral blood flow (CBF) may contribute to the initial stages of the pathophysiological process in patients with Alzheimer's disease (AD). Hypoperfusion has been observed in several brain regions in patients with mild cognitive impairment (MCI). However, the clinical significance of CBF changes in the early stages of AD is currently unclear.

A pivotal pathway of photodynamic therapy (PDT) is to prompt mitochondrial damage by reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation, thus leading to cancer cell apoptosis. However, mitochondrial autophagy is induced during such a PDT process, which is a protective mechanism for cancer cell homeostasis, resulting in undermined therapeutic efficacy. Herein, we report a series of meticulously designed donor (D)-π-acceptor (A) photosensitizers (PSs), characterized by the strategic modulation of thiophene π-bridges, which exhibit unparalleled mitochondrial targeting proficiency.

Since the widespread use of antibiotics, the residues of antibiotics have frequently been detected in various water sources, making antibiotic pollution an urgent environmental issue. In this paper, one-step green synthetic reduced graphene/manganese nanoparticles (rGO/Mn NPs) composites have been utilized as a novel environmentally-friendly catalyst for tetracycline (TC) removal. The results demonstrated that rGO/Mn NPs exhibit excellent adsorption performance for TC, and can efficiently activate sodium persulfate (PDS) to oxidize and degrade TC.

The development of resistance to traditional antifungal therapies has necessitated the exploration of alternative treatment strategies to effectively manage fungal infections, particularly those induced by (). This research investigates the possibility of integrating silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) with Terbinafine to improve antifungal effectiveness. Terbinafine, while potent, faces challenges with specific fungal strains, highlighting the need for strategies to enhance its treatment efficacy.
