The antioxidant activities of two homogeneous polysaccharides, water extraction of polysaccharide (W-PTR) and alkali extraction of polysaccharide (A-PTR) from Pleurotus tuber-regium (Fr.) Sing. were evaluated. Results showed that W-PTR was stronger than A-PTR in O₂(-·) scavenging activity, while A-PTR was stronger than W-PTR in the scavenging activities to ·OH, DPPH·, inhibition effects on liver lipid peroxidation, liver mitochondria swelling, and red blood cell (RBC) hemolysis. At concentration of 0.3 g/L, the O₂(-·) scavenging activity of W-PTR and A-PTR were 85.7% and 71.7%. At concentration of 0.25 g/L, the ·OH scavenging activity of W-PTR and A-PTR were 64.20% and 74.97%. At the concentration of 0.3 g/L, the lipid peroxidation inhibition effects of A-PTR were 79.37%. At concentration of 0.8 g/L, the hemolysis inhibition rate of A-PTR was 77.16%. The polysaccharides of P. tuber-regium had strong antioxidant potency and might be exploited as effective natural antioxidant to alleviate oxidative stress.

ROCK inhibitors can inhibit IL-1β and NLRP3, and their therapeutic potential for osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis has been confirmed, but their impact on gouty arthritis has not been reported yet. By hybridization the structure of Edaravone, a series of ROCK inhibitors with pyrazolone scaffold were designed and synthesized. RM-04 has acceptable selective ROCK2 inhibitory activity with an IC of 4.

Renal ischemia/reperfusion injury (IRI) is a common form of acute kidney injury. The basic mechanism underlying renal IRI is acute inflammation, where oxidative stress plays an important role. Although bilirubin exhibits potent reactive oxygen species (ROS)-scavenging properties, its clinical application is hindered by problems associated with solubility, stability, and toxicity.

Reactive oxygen species (ROS) play a dual role in wound healing. They act as crucial signaling molecules and antimicrobial agents when present at moderate levels. However, excessive levels of ROS can hinder the healing process for individuals with diabetes.

These materials have been developed for several applications, including catalysis, separation science, metal ion adsorption and nanomedicine. Carbon nanoparticles (CNPs) obtained through HTC are particularly interesting for the latter application since they exhibit photothermal properties when irradiated with near-infrared (NIR) light, act as an antioxidant by scavenging reactive oxygen species (ROS), and present good colloidal stability and biocompatibility.
