Journal of Applied Toxicology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Particulate matter (PM) is a major global health threat, linked to millions of deaths annually. Beyond inhalation, PM components reach the gastrointestinal tract through the mucociliary escalator or contaminated food and water. Among PM's organic fraction, redox‐active quinones such as 1,2‐naphthoquinone (NQ) and 9,10‐phenanthrenequinone (PQ ...

Ascorbate Transport in Coronary Artery [PDF]
, 2004 Vitamin C (ascorbate or Asc) is an essential vitamin for humans. The transport of oxidized ascorbate occurs via Na^+-dependent vitamin C transporters (SVCTI/SVCT2).

Binuclear Copper‐Dependent Oxidative Enzymes Involved in Fungal Natural Product Modifications
Journal of the Chinese Chemical Society, EarlyView.This article summarizes recent biochemical characterizations of a new enzyme family named by the authors as binuclear copper‐dependent oxidative enzymes (BiNCOs). Found in fungal natural product biosynthesis, BiNCOs catalyze diverse CH functionalization reactions, including C(sp3)H halogenation, C(sp3)H hydroxylation, C(sp3)O macrocyclization, and ...

Journal of Plant Nutrition and Soil Science, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Cadmium (Cd2+) contamination in agricultural soils has been reported to pose risks to crop productivity, food safety, and human health. This review synthesizes current knowledge on the mechanisms by which essential (S, Zn, Fe, Mg, K, Ca) and beneficial (Si, Se, rare earth elements) elements mitigate Cd2+ toxicity in plants.

Variation in tomato fruit ascorbate levels and consequences of manipulation of ascorbate metabolism on drought stress tolerance [PDF]
, 2012 Tomato is an important crop worldwide and one of the major sources of vitamin C (ascorbate) in the human diet. Ascorbate contributes both to tomato nutritional quality and has roles in stress tolerance and adaptation to the environment.

Salt‐induced nutritional and metabolic shifts in halophytes: implications for food security
Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.Abstract Plant species vary in their response to salinity: some crops show a degree of salt tolerance, while halophytes – whether wild or cultivated – are characterized by a high capacity to thrive under saline conditions. Halophytes are considered a source of valuable secondary metabolites with potential economic value, yet they might also produce ...

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.Abstract BACKGROUND Preventing chronic liver damage is essential for maintaining overall health and reducing the risk of serious liver diseases. Acetaminophen (APAP) overdose can lead to severe liver damage due to oxidative stress, and citrus fruits are rich in bioactive compounds that may have health benefits.

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.Abstract BACKGROUND Selenicereus spp., belonging to the Cactaceae family, produces pitaya, a fruit recognized for its exotic appearance and rich phytochemical composition. In regions with shorter photoperiods, flowering and fruit development are limited, making light supplementation a promising strategy.

On the Assembly of Actin Polymerization‐Powered Motors
Macromolecular Rapid Communications, EarlyView.Actin polymerization‐powered motors have the highest speed when the actin recruiting‐polymerizing proteins are immobilized in polymer brushes on their surface. These motors orbit around larger tracer particles at pH above the isoelectric point of ActA but dock onto the tracer particles’ surface at lower pH. ABSTRACT Nano‐ and micromotors are a class of

Improving Fetal Single‐Voxel Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy With Spectral Registration
Magnetic Resonance in Medicine, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Purpose To evaluate whether spectral registration improves spectral quality and quantification reliability in in vivo single‐voxel fetal brain MRS: Methods Fourteen fetal PRESS datasets were acquired at 3 T at TE = 35 ms and TE = 135 ms. Raw data were processed with eddy‐current phase correction, coil combination, spectral registration, and ...
