Bovine superoxide dismutase (SOD) (Peroxinorm, Grünenthal Stolberg) was injected intramuscularly or subcutaneously in a daily dose of 4 mg over a period of six weeks into two patients with Fanconi anaemia. The effects (measured by the decrease of chromosome aberrations in blood lymphocytes and the increase in blood cells in venous blood) were evident but temporary. The hypothetical mode of action of SOD and the failure of a prolonged therapeutic effect are discussed.

Heterodimeric Photosensitizer as Radical Generators to Promoting Type I Photodynamic Conversion for Hypoxic Tumor Therapy.

Adv Mater

January 2025

State Key Laboratory of Fine Chemicals, College of Materials Science and Engineering, Shenzhen University, Shenzhen, 518071, China.

Photodynamic therapy (PDT) using traditional type II photosensitizers (PSs) has been limited in hypoxic tumors due to excessive oxygen consumption. The conversion from type II into a less oxygen-dependent type I PDT pathway has shown the potential to combat hypoxic tumors. Herein, the design of a heterodimeric PS, NBSSe, by conjugating a widely used type I PS NBS and a type II PS NBSe via molecular dimerization, achieving the aggregation-regulated efficient type I photodynamic conversion for the first time is reported.

Core microbe Bifidobacterium in the hindgut of calves improves the growth phenotype of young hosts by regulating microbial functions and host metabolism.

Microbiome

January 2025

State Key Laboratory of Animal Nutrition and Feeding, International Calf and Heifer Organization, College of Animal Science and Technology, China Agricultural University, Beijing, 100193, China.

Background: The growth and health of young ruminants are regulated by their gut microbiome, which can have lifelong consequences. Compared with subjective grouping, phenotypic clustering might be a more comprehensive approach to revealing the relationship between calf growth state and core gut microbes. However, the identification of beneficial gut bacteria and its internal mechanisms of shaping host phenotype differentiation remains unclear.

Bisphenol S induced endothelial dysfunction via mitochondrial pathway in the vascular endothelial cells, and detoxification effect of albumin binding.

Chem Biol Interact

January 2025

College of Chemistry and Materials, Key Laboratory of Green Catalysis of Jiangxi Education Institutes, Jiangxi Normal University, Nanchang, 330022, China. Electronic address:

As a replacement of bisphenol A, bisphenol S (BPS) is commonly used in the wrappers and food containers of daily life. Epidemiological studies demonstrate a close link between BPS exposure and vascular diseases, where the biological activities of BPS remain scarcely known. Herein, the effects of BPS on endothelial function as well as the underlying mechanism were investigated in human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) and mouse arteries.

Impact of a trace mineral injection at weaning on growth, behavior, and inflammatory, antioxidant, and immune responses of beef calves.

Transl Anim Sci

December 2024

Faculdade de Medicina Veterinária e Zootecnia, Universidade Federal de Mato Grosso do Sul, Campo Grande, MS 79074-460, Brazil.

Two experiments evaluated the effects of an injectable trace mineral (ITM) solution at weaning on trace mineral (TM) status, inflammatory and antioxidant responses, grazing behavior, response to vaccination, and growth of beef calves. Experiment 1 used 86 Nellore calves (40 females and 46 males; body weight [BW] = 198 ± 30.8 kg; 8 ± 1 mo of age) weaned (day 0) and assigned into one of two treatments: saline (0.
