Peroxymonosulfate (PMS) based advanced oxidation processes have gained widespread attention in refractory antibiotics treatment. In this study, FeO nanoparticles anchored nitrogen-doped porous carbon microspheres (FeO/NCMS) were synthesized and applied to PMS heterogeneous activation for doxycycline hydrochloride (DOX-H) degradation. Benefitting from synergy effects of porous carbon structure, nitrogen doping, and fine dispersion of FeO nanoparticles, FeO/NCMS showed excellent DOX-H degradation efficiency within 20 min via PMS activation. Further reaction mechanisms revealed that the reactive oxygen species including hydroxyl radicals (•OH) and singlet oxygen (O) played the dominant role for DOX-H degradation. Moreover, Fe(II)/Fe(III) redox cycle also participated in the radical generation, and nitrogen-doped carbonaceous structures served as the highly active centers for non-radical pathways. The possible degradation pathways and intermediate products accompanying DOX-H degradation were also analyzed in detail. This study provides key insights into the further development of heterogeneous metallic oxides-carbon catalysts for antibiotic-containing wastewater treatment.

Objective: Treatment with the chemotherapeutic agent, doxorubicin (DOX), is limited by side effects. We have previously demonstrated that fasudil, a Rho/ROCK inhibitor, has antioxidant, anti-inflammatory and anti-apoptotic effects in contrast-induced acute kidney injury model. The present study to investigated the possible protective effect of fasudil, on DOX-induced nephrotoxicity.

The degradation of an anticancer drug by laccase was investigated for the first time, bringing a new approach to treat these hazardous substances through the direct enzymatic application. Degradations of doxorubicin by laccase were performed in different enzymatic concentrations, pH values and temperatures through kinetic studies. The highest enzymatic degradation of doxorubicin was achieved at pH 7 and 30 ºC, which resembles effluent characteristics from wastewater treatment plants.

Rationale: The β-adrenoceptor (β-AR), a prototypical GPCR (G protein-coupled receptor), couples to both G and G proteins. Stimulation of the β-AR is beneficial to humans and animals with heart failure presumably because it activates the downstream G-PI3K-Akt cell survival pathway. Cardiac β-AR signaling can be regulated by crosstalk or heterodimerization with other GPCRs, but the physiological and pathophysiological significance of this type of regulation has not been sufficiently demonstrated.

Doxorubicin (DOX) is a widely used drug for cancer treatment as a chemotherapeutic agent. However, the cellular and integrative mechanism of DOX-induced immunometabolism is unclear. Two-month-old male C57BL/6J mice were divided into high- and low-dose DOX-treated groups with a maintained saline control group.
