Stevia rebaudiana Bertoni is a kind of perennial medicinal plant with sweetening properties which belongs to Asteraceae family. Its leaves with fundamental glycoside compounds consist of both a sugar part and a non-sugar sector. One of the glycoside compounds is Rebaudioside- A which has a greater importance in business. This experiment was conducted to evaluate the effects of Ag2O, CrO3, PbO, Fe2O3, BaO and TiO2 on the expression pattern of these genes in the Stevia rebaudiana. Rebaudioside- A biosynthesis was repeated 3 times with concentrations of 50, 100 and 200µM. Also, the results of the study pertaining to the expression pattern of these genes showed that metal oxides have led to an increase in the expression of the regulatory genes involved in biosynthesis of Rebaudioside- A. According to the expression profile, it was found that its effect on DXR, HDS, HDR, IDI and CPPS genes is more than other genes. The peak HPLC indicated for stevioside and Rebaudioside- A represents an increase in the production of this active ingredient under the influence of all treatments. In general, the expression profile of these genes and the results of HPLC show that whatever going to the end of the pathway of production of Rebaudioside- A, the activity of the enzymes increases under the influence of these treatments, and eventually a greater amount of Rebaudioside- A will be produced. This process shows that metal oxides will have a significant effect on the biosynthesis of Rebaudioside- A.

The pathogenesis of acute kidney injury (AKI) is a multifaceted process involving various mechanisms, with oxidative stress playing a crucial role in its development. Hypochlorite (HOCl) and cysteine (Cys) are indicators of oxidative stress in AKI pathophysiology, directly reflecting the degree of oxidative stress and disease severity. However, their exact mechanism of action in AKI pathophysiology remains unknown.

ConspectusThe Mannich reaction, involving the nucleophilic addition of an enol(ate) intermediate to an imine or iminium ion, is one of the most widely used synthetic methods for the synthesis of β-amino carbonyl compounds. Nevertheless, the homo-Mannich reaction, which utilizes a homoenolate intermediate as the nucleophilic partner and provides straightforward access to the valuable γ-amino carbonyl compounds, remains underexplored. This can be largely attributed to the difficulties in generation and manipulation of the homoenolate species, despite various homoenolate equivalents that have been developed.

Introduction: Implantology has become a primary solution for tooth loss due to excellent osseointegration and high long-term success rates. However, complications such as abutment screw loosening, especially in implant-supported single crowns, compromise prosthesis longevity. Anaerobic adhesives (AAs) have shown promise in mechanical fields for preventing screw loosening, but their effectiveness in dental implants, particularly zirconia, remains uncertain.
