Kelch ECH-associating protein 1 (Keap1)-Nuclear factor erythroid 2-related 2 (Nrf2) axis is crucial for regulating oxidative stress and inflammatory responses in acute pneumonia. Sphaeropsidin A (SA) a antioxidant diterpenoid isolated from Sphaeropsis sapinea f. sp. cupressi, discovered as novel Nrf2 agonist by our research group previously. However, the accurate function mechanism of SA treating pneumonia are still unknown. The therapeutic effect was evaluated LPS-induced mice. underlying action then analyzed transcriptomics. direct target identified through synthesis SA-biotin probe, binding amino acid residues were found verified LC-MS/MS analysis site-specific mutation. Finally, knockout mice employed to verify SA. Our data indicated that significantly inhibited via up-regulating Nrf2, inhibiting NLRP3 inflammasome NF-κB activation, Keap1 Specifically, effective dose only mg/kg. selectively covalent bound cysteine 151 residue (Cys151). mediated activation reduced level ROS, thereby inflammasome. Besides, formed hydrogen bond with ASP48 ASC, blocking its oligomerization This study indicates might be new molecule activate promising drug candidate or lead therapy Nrf2/NF-κB/NLRP3 axis.

There is currently no research on the application evaluation of R. mucilaginosa yeast culture (RYC) in animal production. Therefore, this study investigated effects RYC antioxidant capacity, lipid metabolism, and immunity sheep livers. Twenty-four 3-month-old Duhan male (36 ± 4 kg) were divided into four groups. The control group received a basal diet, L diet + 10 g/sheep/day RYC, M 20 H 40 RYC. trial lasted for 75 days. results showed that content glutathione peroxidase livers was significantly increased by 26.6%, malondialdehyde decreased 38% (p < 0.05). Additionally, serum levels total cholesterol, triglycerides, high-density lipoprotein low-density cholesterol decreased; liver C16:0 C18:2n6C C20:1 Furthermore, contents cytokines TNF-α IFN-γ from also 20% 24.8%, respectively These findings suggest supplementation with can enhance improve reduce inflammation livers, which advantageous farming healthy sheep.

This study aimed to explore effects butylphthalide nerve cell ferroptosis in CI rats its underlying mechanisms. Middle artery occlusion (MCAO) rat model was used effect vivo oxygen glucose deprivation (OGD) vitro . Our findings demonstrated that markedly reduced oxidative damage brains MCAO rats. Furthermore, we found upregulated netrin-1/deleted colorectal cancer (DCC)/vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) signaling axis, regulates NF-E2-related factor-2 (NRF2) expression contributes OGD-treated HT22 cells. Collectively, our indicate inhibits stress-mediated cells modulating netrin-1/DCC/VEGF/NRF2 axis. In conclusion, results reveal novel mechanism for protection CIs butylphthalide.

Diabetes and chronic kidney disease (CKD) increase susceptibility to bacterial infections, particularly Staphylococcus aureus, which is associated with highmortality in CKD patients. Dysregulated macrophage activity excessive oxidative stress exacerbate immune dysfunction inflammation these conditions. Nrf2 (nuclear factor erythroid 2-related 2) a key regulator of antioxidant defenses function. CDDO-Me, synthetic triterpenoid, activates Nrf2, providing anti-inflammatoryeffects. However, its precise role modulating activity, polarization, clearance remains unclear. The effects CDDO-Me on function were evaluated vitro (THP-1 RAW 264.7 macrophages) an vivo knockout mouse model. activation was assessed via Western blot luciferase reporter assays, measured using CellROX reagent, inflammatory responses quantified by RT-qPCR. Intracellular S. aureus survival polarization markers analyzed investigate the enhancing bactericidal activity. Our results showed that activated signaling pathway, reducing macrophages downregulating pro-inflammatory cytokines (IL-1β, TNF-α). It modulated decreasing M1 M2 marker expression, significantly enhanced against aureus. These Nrf2-dependent, as demonstrated models. ability regulate stress, inflammation, underscores therapeutic potential for managing infectious diseases indiabetes CKD.

Abstract Oxygen and sulfur, both members of the chalcogen group (group 16 elements), play fundamental roles in life. Ancient organisms primarily utilized sulfur for energy metabolism, while rise atmospheric oxygen facilitated evolution aerobic organisms, enabling highly efficient production. Nevertheless, all modern aerobes anaerobes, must protect themselves from toxicity. Interestingly, still rely on survival. This dependence has been illuminated by recent discovery supersulfides, a novel class biomolecules, made possible through advancements technology analytical methods. These breakthroughs are reshaping our understanding biological processes emphasizing intricate interplay between regulating essential redox reactions. review summarizes latest insights into oxygen, their interdependence key processes, contributions to adaptive responses environmental stressors. By exploring these interactions, we aim provide comprehensive perspective how elements drive survival strategies across diverse life forms, highlighting indispensable human health sustenance
