Methanol is a widely used industrial and household alcohol that poses significant health risks upon exposure. Despite its extensive use, methanol poisoning remains a critical public health concern globally, often resulting from accidental or intentional ingestion and outbreaks linked to contaminated beverages. Methanol toxicity stems from its metabolic conversion to formaldehyde and formic acid, leading to severe metabolic acidosis and multiorgan damage, including profound CNS effects and visual impairments.

Background And Aims: Cell-cycle-related and expression elevated protein in tumor (CREPT, also named RPRD1B) is highly expressed in tumors and functions to promote tumorigenesis. However, the role of CREPT in the pathophysiology of acute liver injury is limited. Here, we demonstrate that CREPT plays an essential role during acute liver injury.

Paracetamol (APAP) overdose is the leading cause of drug-induced liver injury, leading to acute liver failure. However, the role of concurrent acute or chronic ethanol ingestion in this context requires further clarification. In this study, we investigated the effects of acute and chronic ethanol ingestion on APAP-induced hepatotoxicity.

Vulnerable atherosclerotic plaques, especially hemorrhaged lesions, are the major cause of mortalities related to vascular pathologies. The early identification of vulnerable plaques helps to stratify patients at risk of developing acute vascular events. In this study, proteomics analyses of human carotid artery samples collected from patients with atheromatous plaques and complicated lesions, respectively, as well as from healthy controls were performed.

Black chokeberry ( Elliot) represents a rich source of dietary polyphenols and other bioactive phytochemicals with pleiotropic beneficial cardiovascular effects. The present study was aimed at evaluating the ex vivo effects of two black chokeberry extracts (BChEs), obtained from either dry (DryAr) or frozen (FrozAr) berries, on oxidative stress and vascular function in mice aortic rings after incubation with angiotensin 2 (Ang 2), lipopolysaccharide (LPS) and glucose (GLUC) in order to mimic renin-angiotensin system activation, inflammation and hyperglycemia.
