The effect and mechanism of O3 on the degradation of acetaminophen in aqueous solution were studied by the batch experiment. The results showed that acetaminophen could be degraded effectively by ozone and degradation of acetaminophen fitted well with the pseudo-first-order kinetics model (R2 > 0.992). The degradation of acetaminophen was promoted with the increase of pH, the concentration of bicarbonate and ozone. The results of gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) and ion chromatography analysis showed that degradation products such as hydroquinone and a series of carboxylic acids were firstly formed during ozonation of acetaminophen. Then, the products were further oxidized. The degradation pathways of acetaminophen were also discussed by the identified products. The result of TOC showed that the mineralization of acetaminophen was ultimately lower. When the initial concentration of acetaminophen was 20 mg x L(-1) and the concentration of ozone was 9.10 mg x L(-1), the mineralization was only 16.42% after 130 min.

Introduction: Oxidative stress is an important cause of acetaminophen (APAP)-induced liver injury (AILI). Sakuranetin (Sak) is an antitoxin from the cherry flavonoid plant with good antioxidant effects. However, whether sakuranetine has a protective effect on APAP-induced liver injury is not clear.

Microbial transmission from mother to infant is important for offspring microbiome formation and health. However, it is unclear whether maternal gut inflammation (MGI) during lactation influences mother-to-infant microbial transmission and offspring microbiota and disease susceptibility. In this study, it is found that MGI during lactation altered the gut microbiota of suckling pups by shaping the maternal microbiota in the gut and mammary glands.

The increasing contamination of water bodies with pharmaceutical pollutants, particularly acetaminophen, necessitates innovative and efficient remediation strategies. This study introduces a novel AgVO@MoO (AV@MoO) nanorod heterostructure synthesized via a hydrothermal process designed to enrich the photocatalytic degradation of antibiotic pollutant using visible light irradiation. The bandgap energy of the optimum AV@MoO-3 heterostructure is 2.

Article Synopsis
  • Acute liver failure (ALF) is a severe condition with high mortality rates, prompting this study to explore the effects of Sini Decoction plus Ginseng Soup (SNRS) on liver health and immune response.
  • Using bioinformatics and network pharmacology, the research identified key glycolysis-related genes influencing macrophage polarization and found that SNRS can improve liver injury outcomes and survival rates in an ALF model.
  • The study concluded that SNRS may effectively treat ALF by altering macrophage behavior and glucose metabolism through the mTOR/HIF-1α pathway, revealing its potential as a therapeutic option.

Osteoarthritis (OA), particularly in the knee and hip, poses a significant global health challenge due to limited therapeutic options. To elucidate the molecular mechanisms of OA and identify potential biomarkers and therapeutic targets, we utilized genome-wide association studies (GWAS) and cis-miRNA expression quantitative trait loci (cis-miR-eQTL) datasets to identify miRNAs associated with OA, revealing 16 that were linked to knee OA and 21 to hip OA. Among these, hsa-miR-1303 was significantly upregulated in both knee and hip OA (IVW: = 6.
