Nuclear factor erythroid 2-related 2 (Nrf2) signaling has become a key pathway for cellular regulation against oxidative stress and inflammation, therefore an attractive therapeutic target. Several organosulfur compounds are reportedly activators of the Nrf2 pathway. Organosulfur constitute important class agents in medicinal chemistry due to their ability participate biosynthesis, metabolism, functions, protection cells from damage. Sulfur distinctive chemical properties such as large number oxidation states versatility reactions that promote fundamental biological redox biochemistry. The presence sulfur is responsible peculiar features which have been utilized stress-mediated diseases. activation being strategy closely tied sulfur-based since react with sulfhydryl (-SH) groups common property inducers. Although some individual reported activators, there no papers collective analysis these Nrf2-activating may help broaden knowledge potentials motivate further research. In line this fact, first time, review article provides comprehensive information on effects stress, thereby enriching pharmacological diversity activators.

Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is one of the biggest threats to environment and health. AMR rapidly invalidates conventional antibiotics, antimicrobial nanomaterials have been increasingly explored as alternatives. Interestingly, several show AMR-independent effects without detectable new therefore suggested prevent evolution. In contrast, some are found trigger evolution AMR. Given these seemingly conflicting findings, a timely discussion two faces urgently needed. This review systematically compares killing mechanisms structure-activity relationships antibiotics nanomaterials. We then focus on nano-microbe interactions elucidate impacts molecular initiating events Finally, we provide an outlook future propose design principles for prevention

The wide spread of antibiotic resistance has been alarming in recent years and poses a serious global hazard to public health as it leads millions deaths all over the world. sharing genes between different types bacteria led emergence multidrug resistant (MDR) microorganisms. This problem is exacerbated when microorganisms create biofilms, which can boost bacterial by up 1000-fold increase MDR infections. absence novel potent antimicrobial compounds linked rise resistance. sparked international efforts develop new improved agents well innovative efficient techniques for administration targeting. There an evolution nanotechnology treatment prevention biofilm formation infection. development nanomaterial-based therapeutics, could overcome current pathways acquired drug resistance, hopeful strategy treating difficult-to-treat Additionally, nanoparticles’ distinct size physical characteristics enable them target biofilms treat pathogens. review highlights advances combat In addition, provides insight on mechanisms XDR infection, nanoparticles their antibacterial activity.

Abstract The textural properties and surface chemistry of phosphoric acid-modified biochars (PABCs) prepared at different pyrolysis temperatures (500–700 °C) were studied based on the results obtained from XRD, SEM, BET, FT-IR, Raman, XPS elements analyses. PABCs higher tended to possess a bigger proportion microporous structure. adsorption capacity initial rate for sulfadiazine (SDZ) notably improved 139.2 mg/g 9.66 mg/(g min) as calculated Langmuir model. equilibrium time was only one quarter that without modification. H 3 PO 4 modification advantageous produce phosphate break functional groups form disordered carbon structure abundant micropores. enhancement in SDZ due confinement effect hydrophobic cavities mircoporous π–π electron–donor–acceptor interaction. Specially, exhibited stable capacities wide pH range (3.0–9.0) or relatively high concentrations coexisting ions.

Abstract The sulfonamides (sulfas) are the oldest class of antibacterial drugs and inhibit bacterial dihydropteroate synthase (DHPS, encoded by folP ), through chemical mimicry its co-substrate p -aminobenzoic acid ( ABA). Resistance to sulfa is mediated either mutations in or acquisition sul genes, which code for sulfa-insensitive, divergent DHPS enzymes. While molecular basis resistance well understood, mechanisms mediating -based have not been investigated detail. Here, we determine crystal structures most common Sul enzyme types (Sul1, Sul2 Sul3) multiple ligand-bound states, revealing a substantial reorganization their ABA-interaction region relative corresponding DHPS. We use biochemical biophysical assays, mutational analysis, trans complementation E. coli Δ show that Phe-Gly sequence enables enzymes discriminate against sulfas while retaining ABA binding necessary broad sulfonamides. Experimental evolution results strain harboring sulfa-resistant variant carries insertion active site, recapitulating this mechanism. also possess increased site conformational dynamics DHPS, could contribute substrate discrimination. Our reveal foundation Sul-mediated drug facilitate potential development new less prone resistance.

Sulfonamides are applied worldwide as antibiotics. They emerging contaminants of concern, their presence in the environment may lead to spread antibiotic resistance genes. present groundwater systems, which suggest persistence under certain conditions, highlighting importance understanding natural attenuation processes groundwater. Biodegradation is an essential process, degradation sulfonamides reduces risk spreading. In this review, attenuation, and particular assessment biodegradation, evaluated for systems. The current knowledge level on biodegradation reviewed, a scientific foundation built based sulfonamide processes, pathways, metabolites toxicity. An overview bacterial species related provided. main research effort has focused aerobic conditions while investigations anaerobic lacking. implementation laboratory scale; here we strived bridge towards field application assessment, by assessing approaches commonly used monitored attenuation. Methods document contaminant mass loss assessed be applicable sulfonamides, approach limited lack reference standards metabolites. Furthermore, additional information required relevant order improve assessments. Based it suggested use substituent-containing from breakage specific indicators degradation. Microbial currently available microbial community's capacities, however, more indigenous bacteria capable degrading impact environmental biodegradation. Compound stable isotope analysis shows great potential situ method, but further developments analyse at environmentally levels. Finally, scheme that can uncover some fate Nevertheless, there still unknowns well effect settings such redox conditions. Alongside, uncovering future research, applicability documentation will advance, provide step remedial concepts frequently detected sulfonamides.
