Background: Acute systemic inflammation affects many organs and it occurs in a wide range of conditions such as acute lung injury (ALI). Inflammation-triggered oxidative pathways together with the caspase activation seen in ALI, result in apoptosis. Dapagliflozin (DPG) is an agent that is known to have oxidative stress-reducing and anti-inflammatory effects in many tissues.

Lasers Med Sci

January 2025

Laboratory of Pathophysiology Experimental, Postgraduate Program in Health Sciences, Universidade do Extremo Sul Catarinense (UNESC), Criciúma, SC, Brazil.

Unlabelled: This study aimed to evaluate gold nanoparticles (GNPs) and photobiomodulation (PBM), associated with antibothropic serum (AS), to treat a muscle lesion induced by Bothrops jararaca venom.

Methods: 108 Swiss male mice were used, divided into nine groups (n = 12) with different combinations of treatments. Animals were inoculated with 250 µg of B.

Secondary brain damageafter traumatic brain injury (TBI) involves oxidative stress, neuroinflammation, apoptosis, and necroptosis and can be reversed by understanding these molecular pathways. The objective of this study was to examine the impact of tasimelteon (Tasi) administration on brain injury through the nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 (NRF-2)/heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) and receptor-interacting protein kinase 1 (RIPK1)/receptor-interacting protein kinase 3 (RIPK3)/mixed lineage kinase domain-like (MLKL) pathways in rats with TBI. Thirty-two male Wistar albino rats weighing 300-350 g were randomly divided into four groups: the control group, trauma group, Tasi-1 group (trauma + 1 mg/kg Tasi intraperitoneally), and Tasi-10 group (trauma + 10 mg/kg Tasi intraperitoneally).

Proteases are hydrolases that act on peptide bonds, releasing amino acids and/or oligopeptides, and are involved in essential functions in all organisms. They represent an important segment of the global enzyme market, with applications in the food, leather, detergent, and pharmaceutical industries. Depending on their industrial use, proteases should exhibit high activity under extreme conditions, such as low temperatures, e.

Detection and characterization of pathogenic Bacillus haynesii from Tribulus terrestris extract: ways to reduce its levels.

Braz J Microbiol

January 2025

Innovation and Drug Discovery, Sava Healthcare Limited, Research Center, MIDC, Block D1, Plot No. 17/6, Chinchwad, Pune, 411019, India.

Plant parts such as roots, bark, leaves, flowers, and fruits that hold ethnopharmacological significance are naturally prone to microbial contamination, influenced by environmental factors like moisture and humidity. This study focuses on assessing the microbial load in the raw material of Tribulus terrestris (TT). The primary bacterium isolated from the pulverized raw material was identified as Bacillus haynesii through 16S rRNA sequencing.
