The oxidation products and metabolic pathways of five Citrus flavonoids were studied by online electrochemical/quadrupole time-of-flight mass spectrometry (EC/Q-TOF/MS). The simulated oxidation metabolism of target compounds in phase I and phase Ⅱ was carried out at boron-doped diamond (BDD) working electrode. The results obtained by EC-MS were compared with the conventional metabolism of rats and humans reported in previous literatures. In addition, the method of incubating the target compounds with rat liver microsomes in vitro was established, the target compounds and their metabolites were analyzed by high performance liquid chromatography coupled mass spectrometry. The structures of the metabolites were determined by accurate mass measurements and previous in vivo metabolite results. The results showed that the electrochemical oxidation metabolites were consistent with the results of in vitro incubation of liver microsomes, and also with the results reported in other literatures. As a consequence, EC/Q-TOF/MS is a promising and effective tool for studying metabolic transformation of different complex food components.

Muscular dystrophies (MD) are a group of hereditary diseases marked by progressive muscle loss, leading to weakness and degeneration of skeletal muscles. These conditions often result from structural defects in the Dystrophin-Glycoprotein Complex (DGC), as seen in Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy (DMD) and Becker Muscular Dystrophy (BMD). Since MDs currently have no cure, research has focused on identifying potential therapeutic targets to improve patients' quality of life.

The management of micronutrients, such as boron (B) and zinc (Zn), is critical for plant growth and crop yields. One method of rapid intervention crop management to mitigate nutritional deficiency is the foliar supply of B and Zn. Our study investigates the effect of foliar-supplied B and Zn availability on the global transcriptional modulation in soybean (Glycine max).

Bacterial and viral RNA polymerases are promising targets for the development of new transcription inhibitors. One of the potential blockers of RNA synthesis is 7,8-dihydro-8-oxo-1,-ethenoadenine (oxo-εA), a synthetic compound that combines two adenine modifications: 8-oxoadenine and 1,-ethenoadenine. In this study, we synthesized oxo-εA triphosphate (oxo-εATP) and showed that it could be incorporated by the RNA-dependent RNA polymerase of SARS-CoV-2 into synthesized RNA opposite template residues A and G in the presence of Mn ions.

In preclinical studies, bioactive phytochemicals have shown enormous potential therapeutic efficacy against various human malignancies. These natural compounds have been shown to possess an inherent potential to alter the molecular signaling pathways and epigenetic modulatory activity involved in multiple physiological functions. Recently, epigenetic therapy has emerged as an important therapeutic modality due to the reversible nature of epigenetic alterations.

Numerous unregulated organic compounds (UOCs) including pharmaceuticals, opioids, and personal care products (PCPs) end up in wastewater. UOC presence in biosolids (a wastewater treatment byproduct), which are applied to soil for different reasons raises environmental and health risk concerns. In this study, two multi-class extraction methods were developed and validated to target 111 UOCs from 8 different major families simultaneously in biosolids and biosolids-impacted soil.
