Aim - to assess the nature and three-year dynamics of structural and functional changes in the cardiovascular system in relation to the levels of enzymatic and non-enzymatic antioxidants in chronic coronary heart disease in men. The study included 246 men aged 48 to 65 years (mean age 58 years (53,0; 63,0)) with stable form of ischemic heart disease - angina FC II-III CHF I-III FC (NYHA), observed during 2012-2015. To assess the level of oxidative stress in all patients by ELISA was determined by lipid peroxide, total antioxidant status (CCA) and levels of non-enzymatic antioxidant bilirubin (BR). Patients were divided into 2 groups according to the level of serum BR: the main group - 146 patients with the level of BR< 8.0 µmol/l; the control group-100 patients with the level of BR ≥8.0 µmol/l. Assessment of the structural and functional state of the myocardium included ECG, XM ECG, EchoCG, VEM test. A decrease in the level of protection against oxidative stress (OS) in men with stable CHD in the form of a significant increase in the level of lipid peroxides and a decrease in the OAS index was found. In the study group OxyStat, total cholesterol and LDL cholesterol were significantly higher (p<0.01)., and ImAnOx - significantly lower than in the control group (p<0.01). A high degree of direct relationship between the level of blood BR and the indicator of AOC is established. Three-year dynamic observation showed a close relationship between the processes of cardiovascular system remodeling and OS components. The high level of OS in men with stable ischemic heart disease is accompanied by adverse changes in the geometry of the left ventricle (eccentric non-dilatated hypertrophy, an increase in the number of segments with hypokinesis), which leads to the progression of chronic heart failure with the risk of ischemic and arrhythmic reactions to physical activity.

Background: Vanadium (VAN) is a significant trace element, but its higher exposure is reported to cause severe organ toxicity. Tectochrysin (TEC) is a naturally derived flavonoid which demonstrates a wide range of pharmacological properties.
Aim: The current study was planned to assess the cardioprotective potential of TEC against VAN induced cardiotoxicity in rats via regulating biochemical, and histological profile.

Perfluorooctane sulfonate (PFOS) and its new substitute, perfluorobutane sulfonate (PFBS), are increasing in concentration in the environment annually, and their toxicity cannot be ignored. With an increasing amount of PFOS and PFBS entering the environment, especially into farmland soil, it is very likely to pollute tobacco-planting soil. Therefore, we chose tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum L.

Exposure to sound energy may be a risk factor or a therapeutic intervention for Alzheimer's disease (AD). On one hand, noise has a harmful effect on people with AD by contributing to hearing loss, sleep disturbance, oxidative stress, inflammation, and excitotoxicity. But on the other hand, clinical trials and nursing home interventions with soundscape augmentation involving natural sounds have shown promising results in alleviating psychophysiological symptoms in people with AD.

Filamentous plant pathogenic fungi pose significant threats to global food security, particularly through diseases like Fusarium Head Blight (FHB) and Septoria Tritici Blotch (STB) which affects cereals. With mounting challenges in fungal control and increasing restrictions on fungicide use due to environmental concerns, there is an urgent need for innovative control strategies. Here, we present a comprehensive analysis of the stage-specific infection process of Fusarium graminearum in wheat spikes by generating a dual weighted gene co-expression network (WGCN).

The metabolic landscape of cancer greatly influences antitumor immunity, yet it remains unclear how organ-specific metabolites in the tumor microenvironment influence immunosurveillance. We found that accumulation of primary conjugated and secondary bile acids (BAs) are metabolic features of human hepatocellular carcinoma and experimental liver cancer models. Inhibiting conjugated BA synthesis in hepatocytes through deletion of the BA-conjugating enzyme bile acid-CoA:amino acid -acyltransferase (BAAT) enhanced tumor-specific T cell responses, reduced tumor growth, and sensitized tumors to anti-programmed cell death protein 1 (anti-PD-1) immunotherapy.
