Cytochrome P450 (CYP) enzymes play a key role in the metabolism of both xenobiotics and endogenous chemicals, and the activity of some CYP isoforms are susceptible to induction and/or inhibition by certain chemicals. As CYP induction/inhibition can bring

Abstract Environmental factors, including airborne toxicants, are thought to contribute to the pathogenesis of chronic rhinosinusitis, although the exact mechanism is not fully understood. The purpose of this pilot study is to assess the impact of pesticide, N,N‐diethyl‐meta‐toluamide (DEET), on the sinonasal epithelium using an in vivo murine model ...

Heterogeneity of iridoid biosynthesis in catmints: Molecular background in a phylogenetic context
Evolutionary gains and losses of key biosynthetic genes likely resulting from multiple independent evolutionary events explain why certain Nepeta (catnip) species produce both the active, cat‐attracting nepetalactones and sugar‐bound iridoids, while others make only the sugar‐bound forms, and some have lost iridoid production entirely.

Structure‐Based Screening of Amides with Potential to Overcome Aedes aegypti Insecticide Resistance
Given the great insecticidal potential of compounds containing the amide function, the present study applied the structure‐based virtual screening (SBVS) strategy through docking and molecular dynamics to screen more than 27,000 amides from a ChemBL library and identify potential inhibitors of important Aedes aegypti enzymes that can overcome ...

N, N-diethyl-m-toluamide (DEET) is a widely used active ingredient in insect repellents, particularly in areas where mosquitoes are prevalent. Although the photolysis of DEET is inevitably to occur when exposed to sunlight, the potential risks associated

Synergistic Cytotoxicity of Permethrin and N,N‐Diethyl‐Meta‐Toluamide on Sinonasal Epithelial Cells
Abstract N,N‐Diethyl‐meta‐toluamide (DEET) and permethrin are pesticides commonly used in combination due to their synergistic insecticidal and repellent properties. This study investigates whether simultaneous exposure to these compounds elicits synergistic cytotoxicity in sinonasal epithelial cells (SNECs).

In vitro testing of alternative synthetic and natural antiparasitic compounds against the monogenean sparicotyle chrysophrii [PDF]
Gill monogenean Sparicotyle chrysophrii is considered the most detrimental fish parasite to the Mediterranean aquaculture. Treatment of sparicotylosis relies on frequent gill inspections correlated with the seasonal increase in seawater temperature ...
