is a zoonotic pathogen causing serious infections in swine and humans. Although metals are essential for life, excess amounts of metals are toxic to bacteria. Transcriptome-level data of the mechanisms for resistance to metal toxicity in are available for no metals other than zinc. Herein, we explored the transcriptome-level changes in in response to ferrous iron and cobalt toxicity by RNA sequencing. Many genes were differentially expressed in the presence of excess ferrous iron and cobalt. Most genes in response to cobalt toxicity showed the same expression trends as those in response to ferrous iron toxicity. qRT-PCR analysis of the selected genes confirmed the accuracy of RNA sequencing results. Bioinformatic analysis of the differentially expressed genes indicated that ferrous iron and cobalt have similar effects on the cellular processes of . Ferrous iron treatment resulted in down-regulation of several oxidative stress tolerance-related genes and up-regulation of the genes in an amino acid ABC transporter operon. Expression of several genes in the arginine deiminase system was down-regulated after ferrous iron and cobalt treatment. Collectively, our results suggested that alters the expression of multiple genes to respond to ferrous iron and cobalt toxicity.

-infected macrophages produce 4-hydroxynonenal (4-HNE) that mediates microbiota-induced bystander effect (MIBE) leading to colorectal cancer (CRC). Glutathione -transferase alpha 4 (Gsta4), a specific detoxifying enzyme for 4-HNE, is overexpressed in human CRC and -induced murine CRC. However, the roles of Gsta4 in -induced colitis and CRC remain unclear.

An imbalance in iron homeostasis contributes to mitochondrial dysfunction, which is closely linked to the pathogenesis of various diseases. Herein, we developed a nanosensor for detecting mitochondrial ferrous ions in vitro and in vivo. A poly(N-isopropylacrylamine)-coacrylic acid nanohydrogel was synthesized, and ferrous ions were detected using the fluorescent probe FeRhonox-1 embedded within it.

Background & Aim: Hemolytic anemia is a blood disorder whose incidence is increasing in the world in recent years especially after the pandemic. Conventional treatments include use of steroids and immunosuppresants that are accompanied by numerous adverse effects. With growing interest in using complex multi-component formulations for multi-targeted therapy, the present study aims to investigate the therapeutic efficacy of a traditional herbomineral preparation, , which has been traditionally used as a supplement in iron-deficiency anemia, against phenylhydrazine-induced hemolytic anemia in rodent models.

CT images of castings made of ductile iron were analyzed in the paper. On these images, objects can be identified that can be considered as graphite precipitates or indicate the presence of a defect in the casting. Research conducted in this area is described, based on experimental data that allows to determine whether the indicated components present in the casting are graphite precipitation.
