In brain mitochondria succinate activates H(2)O(2) release, concentration dependently (starting at 15 μM), and in the presence of NAD dependent substrates (glutamate, pyruvate, β-hydroxybutyrate). We report that TCA cycle metabolites (citrate, isocitrate, α-ketoglutarate, fumarate, malate) individually and quickly inhibit H(2)O(2) release. When they are present together at physiological concentration (0.2, 0.01, 0.15, 0.12, 0.2 mM respectively) they decrease H(2)O(2) production by over 60% at 0.1-0.2 mM succinate. The degree of inhibition depends on the concentration of each metabolite. Acetoacetate is a strong inhibitor of H(2)O(2) release, starting at 10 μM and acting quickly. It potentiates the inhibition induced by TCA cycle metabolites. The action of acetoacetate is partially removed by β-hydroxybutyrate. Removal is minimal at 0.1 mM acetoacetate, and is higher at 0.5 mM acetoacetate. We conclude that several inhibitors of H(2)O(2) release act jointly and concentration dependently to rapidly set the required level of H(2)O(2) generation at each succinate concentration.

Nanoization of Technical Pesticides: Facile and Smart Pesticide Nanocapsules Directly Encapsulated through "On Site" Metal-Polyphenol Coordination Assembly for Improved Efficacy and Biosafety.

Facile pesticide nanocapsules were successfully prepared by directly encapsulating the antisolvent precipitation of pesticides through instantaneous "on site" coordination assembly of tannic acid and Fe, avoiding tedious preparation, time consumption, and large amounts of organic solvents. The pesticide nanocapsules showed excellent resistance to ultraviolet photolysis and rainwater washing owing to the nanocapsule walls. The smart pesticide nanocapsules exhibited the controlled release of pesticides under multidimensional stimuli, such as acidic/alkaline pH, glutathione, HO, phytic acid, laccase, tannase, and sunlight, which were related to the physiological and natural environments of crops, pests, and pathogens.

Reactive oxygen species (ROS) play a critical role in regulating various physiological processes. To gain a comprehensive understanding of their distinct functions in different physiological events, it is imperative to detect binary ROS simultaneously. However, the development of the sensing method capable of binary ROS detection remains a significant challenge.

Chemodynamic therapy (CDT) is an emerging antitumor strategy utilizing iron-initiated Fenton reaction to destroy tumor cells by converting endogenous HO into highly toxic hydroxyl radical (OH). However, the intratumoral overexpressed glutathione (GSH) and deficient acid greatly reduce CDT efficacy because of OH scavenging and decreased OH production efficiency. Even worse, the various physiological barriers, especially in glioma, further put the brakes on the targeted delivery of Fenton agents.

Programmed necrosis/necroptosis greatly contributes to the pathogenesis of cardiac disorders including myocardial infarction, ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury and heart failure. However, the fundamental mechanism underlying myocardial necroptosis, especially the mitochondria-dependent death pathway, is poorly understood. Synaptotagmin-1 (Syt1), a Ca sensor, is originally identified in nervous system and mediates synchronous neurotransmitter release.

Macrophages have emerged as promising cellular vehicles for the delivery of therapeutic agents to tumor sites. However, the cytotoxicity of therapeutic agents toward the cellular carriers and the effective release of therapeutic agents at the tumor site remain the main challenges faced by macrophage-mediated drug delivery systems. Herein, a near-infrared (NIR)-triggered release of self-accelerating cascade nanoreactor (HCFG) delivered by macrophages (HCFG@R) was developed for synergistic tumor photothermal therapy (PTT)/starvation therapy (ST)/chemodynamic therapy (CDT).
