Diet containing diquat dibromide (1,000 or 2,000 ppm) caused an extension of the first-instar stadium of Neobellieria bullata (Parker); the first molt was primarily disturbed. Pupariation was delayed when early-wandering larvae had been injected with diquat dibromide (18 micrograms/larva; approximately to 150 ppm). This effect of diquat dibromide was eliminated by simultaneous injection of 20-OH ecdysone (0.02 micrograms/larva). After larvae in the red spiracle stage were injected with diquat dibromide (5 micrograms/larva; approximately 42 ppm), evagination of the pupal head was inhibited. Paraquat dichloride was less active than diquat dibromide and appears to be a safer herbicide for use around decomposer fly species.

CXCR3 inhibition ameliorates mitochondrial function to restrict oxidative damage via NCOA4-mediated ferritinophagy and improves the gut microbiota in mice.

Nuclear receptor coactivator 4 (NCOA4)-mediated ferritinophagy contributes to maintain intracellular iron balance by regulating ferritin degradation, which is essential for redox homeostasis. CXC-motif chemokine receptor 3 (CXCR3) is involved in the regulation of oxidative stress and autophagy. However, its role in modulating intestinal oxidative damage through ferritinophagy and the gut microbiota remains unclear.

Oxidative stress is considered to be a major cause of numerous intestinal diseases, and taxifolin (TA) possesses a variety of pharmacological properties that promote health and prevent disease. This study intends to determine the ability of TA to alleviate oxidative stress induced by diquat (DIQ) in porcine intestinal epithelial cells (IPEC-J2 cells). After being pretreated with 150 μM TA for 24 h, IPEC-J2 cells were treated with 0.

There is growing interest in transcriptomic points of departure (tPOD) values from in vitro experiments as an alternative to animal test method. The study objective was to calculate tPODs in rainbow trout gill cells (RTgill-W1 following OECD 249) exposed to pesticides, and to evaluate how these values compare to fish acute and chronic toxicity data. Cells were exposed to one fungicide (chlorothalonil), ten herbicides (atrazine, glyphosate, imazethapyr, metolachlor, diquat, s-metolachlor, AMPA, dicamba, dimethenamid-P, metribuzin), eight insecticides (chlorpyrifos, diazinon, permethrin, carbaryl, clothianidin, imidacloprid, thiamethoxam, chlorantraniliprole), and OECD 249 positive control 3,4-dichloroaniline.

Background: As global food production continues to surge, the widespread use of herbicides has also increased concurrently, posing challenges like health risks and environmental pollution. Traditional detection methods for pesticide residues, such as diquat (DQ), were hampered by limitations like high expenses, lengthy detection times and complex operations, restricting their practical application in rapid clinical diagnosis.

Results: In light of the pressing necessity for the identification of minute pesticide residues and the intrinsic constraints of small molecule analysis, a novel chromophotometric biosensor targeting small molecules was developed based on bi-epitopes on single antibody to immobilize two DQ-PAL, inhibiting the hybridization of DQ-PAL.

Objective: To investigate the protective effect and mechanism of tumor necrosis factor receptor-associated factor 6 (TRAF6) inhibitor C25-140 on acute kidney injury (AKI) induced by acute diquat (DQ) poisoning in mice.

Methods: A total of 80 SPF grade healthy male C57BL/6 mice were randomly divided into the normal control group, DQ model group, C25-140 intervention group, and C25-140 control group, with 20 mice in each group. The DQ poisoning mouse model was established by using one-time intraperitoneal injection of 1 mL of 40 mg/kg DQ solution.
