Parental Exposure to Nanoplastics and Graphene Oxide Induces Transgenerational Toxicity in Caenorhabditis elegans

Journal of Applied Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Environmental pollution by emerging contaminants such as nanoplastics (NPs) and graphene oxide (GO) represents a growing threat to global health and ecosystems. This study investigated the effects of parental exposure, both isolated and combined, to 100 μg/L NPs (polystyrene, spherical, 100 nm) and 100 mg/L GO, using Caenorhabditis elegans as ...

Effects of catechins, resveratrol, silymarin components and some of their conjugates on xanthine oxidase‐catalyzed xanthine and 6‐mercaptopurine oxidation

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, Volume 105, Issue 5, Page 2765-2776, 30 March 2025.
Abstract BACKGROUND Over the past two decades, the global incidence of gout has markedly increased, affecting people worldwide. Considering the side effects of xanthine oxidase (XO) inhibitor drugs (e.g. allopurinol and febuxostat) used in the treatment of hyperuricemia and gout, the potential application of phytochemicals has been widely studied.

Evaluation of the Efficacy of Photobiomodulation Therapy, Therapeutic Ultrasound, and Boric Acid in the Prevention of Intra‐Abdominal Adhesions in an Experimental Rat Model: A Macroscopic, Histopathological, and Gene Expression Analysis

Lasers in Surgery and Medicine, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objectives This study aimed to evaluate the efficacy of photobiomodulation therapy (PBMT), therapeutic ultrasound (TUS), boric acid (BA), and their combinations in preventing experimentally induced intra‐abdominal adhesions in rats. Materials and Methods Ninety‐six male Wistar rats (14 weeks old) were randomly assigned to eight groups (Control,

The action of xanthin and methyl xanthins on the isolated intestine

Experimental Biology and Medicine, 1916
The tests were made with different concentrations of xanthin and its derivatives dissolved in Locke's solution which were carried out on segments of different parts of the intestine of the rabbit. Sodium xanthin in concentrations of 1 : 2,000 and 1 : 1,000 caused increased tonus which was more pronounced in the large than in the small intestine.

Synergistic and Antagonistic Effects of Chemical Pollutants and Parasitic Fungi on Cyanobacterial Metabolism

Environmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Freshwater ecosystems are increasingly impacted by anthropogenic pollutants, including the widely used herbicide metolachlor (MET) and cigarette butt (CB) litter. Parasites represent an additional biotic stressor that can modulate pollutant effects on their hosts.

Beyond Removal Efficiency: Environmental Risk Assessment of Tartrazine Degradation via ZnO and TiO2 Nanoparticles in Mussels

Environmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Tartrazine (TZ) is a widely used synthetic azo dye with high aqueous stability, resulting in persistence in wastewater. Photoreactive nanomaterials, principally zinc oxide (ZnO) and titanium dioxide (TiO2) nanoparticles (NPs), are frequently employed for dye removal under light‐exposed conditions; nevertheless, their ecotoxicological ...

Investigation of the Protective Effect of Morin on Oxidative Stress and Apoptosis in Malathion‐Induced Hepatotoxicity in Rats

Environmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Malathion (MAL) is a widely used organophosphate pesticide associated with hepatotoxicity through oxidative stress and apoptosis. Morin, a naturally occurring flavonoid, exhibits potent antioxidant and anti‐inflammatory properties. This study investigated oxidative stress, inflammatory, and apoptotic alterations induced by acute and subacute ...
