Relatively short-term (2.5 or 5 h) exposure of Wistar rats to oxygen atmosphere at moderate pressure (1.10-1.15 atm) resulted in an increase in LPO level and reduction of antioxidant activity in the blood serum. An increase in malondialdehyde concentration 1 day after termination of the exposure was followed by a decrease in the inhibiting activity of free radical oxidation of liposomal phospholipids induced by Fe(II) ions (100 μm). Malondialdehyde concentration increased by 1.29 times already after 2.5-h exposure and did not changed when the duration of the exposure to oxygen atmosphere was prolonged to 5 h. These data confirm the necessity of using substances potentiating antioxidant defense of the body during exposure to normobaric oxygenation.

A novel photocatalytic method for the synthesis of 1,4-benzoxazepine using 2-alkoxyarylaldehyde as an oxygen source and -arylglycine as a nitrogen source has been reported. This method is mild, efficient, and fast, and the corresponding reaction can be completed within 2 h at room temperature under a nitrogen atmosphere and light-irradiation conditions. Mechanistic studies have confirmed that this scheme involves the decarboxylation cyclization of -arylglycine and provides a convenient pathway for the preparation of various 2-alkyl--phenyl-substituted 1,4-benzoxazepine.

Background: Recent research has demonstrated that the consumption of high fat diet (HFD) can lead to metabolic dysfunctions and cognitive impairments in both mice models and humans. Given the potential negative effects of HFD, it is crucial to explore non-pharmacological alternatives that can serve as a potential treatment for both metabolic dysfunctions and behavioral effects induced by HFD. Therefore, the aim of this study is to assess the impact of chronic and intermittent exposure to cold temperature on the metabolic and cognitive changes associated with HFD consumption.

Generating Strong Metal-Support Interaction and Oxygen Vacancies in Cu/MgAlO Catalysts by CO Treatment for Enhanced CO Hydrogenation to Methanol.

Strong metal-support interactions (SMSIs) are essential for optimizing the performance of supported metal catalysts by tuning the metal-oxide interface structures. This study explores the hydrogenation of CO to methanol over Cu-supported catalysts, focusing on the synergistic effects of strong metal-support interaction (SMSI) and oxygen vacancies introduced by the CO treatment to the catalysts on the catalytic performance. Cu nanoparticles were immobilized on Mg-Al layered double oxide (LDO) supports and modified with nitrate ions to promote oxygen vacancy generation.

Effect of ambient O on respiratory mortality and synergies with meteorological factors in Shenyang, China.

Key Laboratory of Semi-Arid Climate Change, College of Atmospheric Sciences, Ministry of Education, Lanzhou University, Lanzhou, 730000, China.

The impact of O on the respiratory system is a significant global problem. Nevertheless, there is insufficient information about its impact on respiratory disorders in northeast China. In this study, we used a generalized additive model (GAM) to determine the correlation between O concentrations and respiratory deaths based on the daily meteorological data, pollutant concentrations, and respiratory deaths from 2014 to 2016 in Shenyang, a typical city in northeast China.
