The detoxifying function of the liver was studied in experiments on male rats with acute obstructive and strangulation ileus. Irrespective of its type, acute ileus was attended by marked diminution of hepatic detoxifying function the underlying factor of which was inhibited activity of the main microsomal enzymes and reduced content of cytochromes p50 and b5 in the liver. Intoxication of the organism and hypoxia developing in the liver were among the causes of inhibited activity of the microsomal enzymes. The detoxifying function is not normalized in the early periods after relief of acute intestinal obstruction.

This study reports the isolation and characterization of highly resistant bacterial and microalgal strains from an Egyptian wastewater treatment station to cyanide-containing compounds. The bacterial strain was identified as Bacillus licheniformis by 16S rRNA gene sequencing. The isolate removed up to 1 g L potassium cyanide, 3 g L benzonitrile, and 1 g L sodium salicylate when incubated as 10% v/v in MSM at 30 ℃.

Despite a high sucrose accumulation in its taproot vacuoles, sugar beet (Beta vulgaris subsp. vulgaris) is sensitive to freezing. Earlier, a taproot-specific accumulation of raffinose was shown to have beneficial effects on the freezing tolerance of the plant.

Article Synopsis
- AKR1B10 is a human enzyme that reduces carbonyl compounds to alcohols, primarily found in the gastrointestinal tract for detoxifying harmful substances.
- It is linked to various cancers and precancerous conditions, serving as a significant indicator for tumor development and resistance to anticancer drugs.
- Researchers are investigating AKR1B10 as a promising target for new treatments aimed at combating cancer and drug resistance, as well as its role in noncancerous diseases.
