Epirubicin Alters Pancreatic Autophagy and Insulin Synthesis Through a Zinc‐Dependent Mechanism

Journal of Applied Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Epirubicin (EPI) can cause metabolic side effects, including chemotherapy‐related diabetes, partly through oxidative stress that disrupts zinc (Zn) homeostasis and impairs autophagy. This study investigated the effects of EPI on Zn regulation and autophagy in the pancreas, as well as the modulatory role of N‐acetylcysteine (NAC). Rats received

Biological Effects of Selenium‐Containing Ionic Liquids: Cytotoxicity, Mercury Interaction, and Antiproliferative Activity in Glioblastoma Cells

Journal of Applied Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Selenium (Se) is an essential micronutrient that participates in redox regulation and cellular homeostasis. Selenium‐containing ionic liquids (ILsSe) have emerged as hybrid compounds combining the properties of organoselenium molecules with the tunable features of ionic liquids.

Biochemical and Molecular Insights Into Monocrotaline‐Induced Hepatotoxicity: An Experimental Mouse Study

Journal of Applied Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Monocrotaline (MCT), a plant‐derived pyrrolizidine alkaloid, is well known for its hepatotoxic effects. However, full elucidation of the mechanisms underlying MCT‐induced hepatotoxicity, as well as the development of reliable biomarkers for early detection and monitoring, requires an integrated evaluation of biochemical, molecular, and ...

Air Pollution Quinones Impair Intestinal Barrier Integrity and Endoplasmic Reticulum in Differentiated Caco‐2 Cells

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 ...

Controlling Growth of Ultrasmall Sub‐10 nm Silver Nanoparticles From Cotinus coggygria Scop. Extract and Evaluation of Its In Vitro Anti‐Breast Cancer, Antioxidant and Antimicrobial Activity

Journal of Applied Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study highlights the potential use of Cotinus coggygria Scop. plant extract in a single‐step synthesis of biocompatible and ultrasmall AgNPs for in vitro applications. Herein, microscopic analyses revealed that AgNP exposure did not induce appreciable morphological changes in CRL‐4010 cells, whereas MCF‐7 and MDA‐MB‐231 cells exhibited ...

Development and Analytical Validation of a Laboratory‐Customized TaqMan‐MGB Probe Method for CYP2C19 Genotyping

Journal of Clinical Laboratory Analysis, EarlyView.
A laboratory‐customized, open‐sequence TaqMan‐MGB probe assay was developed for detecting CYP2C19*2 and CYP2C19*17 polymorphisms using dried blood spot‐derived DNA. The assay demonstrated allele‐specific discrimination, candidate LODs of 1.17 × 102 copies/μL for CYP2C19*2 and 0.94 × 103 copies/μL for CYP2C19*17, and repeatability with CVs below 10%. In

Measurement of Plasma Free Hemoglobin Using the Hemolysis Index of the Mindray BS‐800

Journal of Clinical Laboratory Analysis, EarlyView.
The Mindray BS‐800 Hemolysis Index provides accurate and reliable measurement of plasma free hemoglobin. Offering an alternative to the Harboe reference method, this technique improves safety and turnaround time. It has strong potential to serve as a practical laboratory marker for accurately differentiating intravascular hemolysis from other causes of

Analysis of Notch1 and Notch3 Signaling Pathway Components in Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia and Prostate Cancer Patients

Journal of Clinical Laboratory Analysis, EarlyView.
This study evaluates the association between Notch1 and Notch3 genetic variations and serum protein levels in patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia and prostate cancer. While genetic variations showed no significant link to disease risk, serum protein levels were significantly lower in prostate cancer and metastatic groups compared to healthy ...

Nanostructured lipid carriers and natural deep eutectic solvents: a highly advantageous combination for the encapsulation of curcumin

Journal of Chemical Technology &Biotechnology, EarlyView.
Abstract BACKGROUND Curcumin is a naturally derived polyphenol known for its potent biological properties. Its therapeutic potential, however, is hindered by low bioavailability. Nanostructured lipid carriers (NLCs) have emerged as advanced delivery systems to overcome such limitations. Natural deep eutectic solvents (NADESs) have garnered attention as

The effect of calcium and magnesium on the aggregation of a purple phototrophic bacteria mixed consortium

Journal of Chemical Technology &Biotechnology, EarlyView.
Abstract BACKGROUND An essential aspect of applying Purple Phototrophic Bacteria (PPB) technology for wastewater treatment is the biomass separation from the aqueous phase. Ca2+ and Mg2+ have been used to enhance the aggregation of different biological matrices. In this paper, the effect of Ca2+ and Mg2+ on the aggregation of a mixed culture of PPB was
