Background And Aims: Although several treatment regimens for T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (T-ALL), trouble is still ongoing that relapse of disease after therapies in both pediatric and adult patients. Hence, the demand for new alternative therapeutics that are antiproliferative for cancer cells but do not harm healthy cells in treatments is increasing day by day. This study aimed to investigate whether succinic acid show anti-proliferative and apoptotic effect of on T-ALL cell lines.
Methods: Time and dose-dependent effects of succinic acid on T-ALL cell lines were determined by using WST-1, caspase-3/ bicinchoninic acid (BCA), and Annexin V-Fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC) assays. We included the MRC-5 cell line in our study as a healthy control group.
Results: Based on our findings, 25 and 50 mmol dosages of succinic acid has shown an apoptotic effect on T-ALL cell lines for 48 h treatment. Also, it has shown that after 48 h exposure of 25 and 50 mmol dosages of succinic acid has no significant cytotoxic effect in healthy MRC-5 cells. Apoptotic activity of succinic acid on CCRF-CEM cell line was caspase-3 dependent but not for MOLT-4. As a consequence, succinic acid was found to effect for T-ALL treatment in vitro and might also enlighten new study fields for different cancer experiments.

Chemical recycling of polymer waste is a promising strategy to reduce the dependency of chemical industry on fossil resources and reduce the increasing quantities of plastic waste. A common challenge in chemical recycling processes is the costly downstream separation of reaction products. For polybutylene succinate (PBS) no effective recycling concept has been implemented so far.

The application of hydrogels to drug delivery limited by the difficulty of encapsulating hydrophobic drugs; therefore, the development of novel composite hydrogels for the delivery of hydrophobic drugs is urgently needed. In this study, terbinafine hydrochloride/hydroxypropyl-β-cyclodextrin inclusion complexes (TFH/HP-β-CD ICs) were added to a Schiff base hydrogel matrix containing octenyl succinic anhydride-modified chitosan (OSA-CS) and sodium alginate (OIA) to prepare a TFH composite hydrogel (TFH GEL). The results revealed that the solubility of TFH in water within TFH/HP-β-CD IC reached 32.

Soil contamination with toxic heavy metals [such as cadmium (Cd)] is becoming a serious global problem due to the rapid development of the social economy. Organic chelating agents such as succinic acid (SA) and oxalic acid (OA) are more efficient, environmentally friendly, and biodegradable compared to inorganic chelating agents and they enhance the solubility, absorption, and stability of metals. To investigate this, we conducted a pot experiment to assess the impact of SA (0.
