There has been considerable interest over the past several years concerning the role of oxygen radicals in myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury. The purpose of the following symposium will be to review recent advances in the understanding of oxygen free radical damage to the heart. Included in the symposium are descriptions of the biochemistry of free radicals and evidence of their direct toxic effects on the heart, as well as discussions concerning the effect of oxygen free radical scavengers on myocardial infarct size, the stunned myocardium, and cardiac preservation during surgery.

Background: Continuous fermentation offers advantages in improving production efficiency and reducing costs, making it highly competitive for industrial ethanol production. A key requirement for Saccharomyces cerevisiae strains used in this process is their tolerance to high ethanol concentrations, which enables them to adapt to continuous fermentation conditions. To explore how yeast cells respond to varying levels of ethanol stress during fermentation, a two-month continuous fermentation was conducted.

Background: Peste des petits ruminants virus (PPRV) is currently the only member of the Morbillivirus caprinae species within the genus Morbillivirus of the family Paramyoxviridae. PPRV causes a highly contagious disease in small ruminants, especially goats and sheep. Succinylation is a newly identified and conserved modification and plays an important role in host cell response to pathogen infection.

Under salt stress, autophagy regulates ionic balance, scavenges ROS, and supports nutrient remobilization, thereby alleviating osmotic and oxidative damage. Salt stress is a major environmental challenge that significantly impacts plant growth and agricultural productivity by disrupting nutrient balance, inducing osmotic stress, and causing the accumulation of toxic ions like Na. Autophagy, a key cellular degradation and recycling pathway, plays a critical role in enhancing plant salt tolerance by maintaining cellular homeostasis and mitigating stress-induced damage.

Periodontitis is a chronic inflammatory condition mainly caused by the interaction between the host immune system and periodontal tissue pathogens, and may lead to consequences, such as alveolar bone defects and tooth loss. Incomplete bacterial removal, persistent inflammation and high reactive oxygen species (ROS) environment are the main challenges for periodontal tissue repair and alveolar bone regeneration. In this study, an injectable composite microgel (Gelatin methacryloyl-Phenylboronic acid/Hydroxyadamantane, GPH) loaded with antimicrobial peptide (AMP) and cerium dioxide (CeO) microspheres was developed to achieve a synergistic function of bacteriostasis, immunomodulation, and ROS removal.

Spinal cord injury (SCI) is a serious central nervous system injury that often causes sensory and motor dysfunction in patients. Diabetes seriously destroys the blood spinal cord barrier (BSCB) and aggravates SCI. Ferroptosis is a new type of programmed cell death.
