Abstract:
Paraquat (PQ) is an agrochemical known to cause pulmonary fibrosis. PQ-induced collagen deposition in the lung is thought to require enzymatic formation of PQ radicals, but the specific enzymes responsible for this bioactivation event in vivo have not been identified. We tested the hypothesis that lung P450 oxidoreductase (POR or CPR) is important in PQ-induced lung fibrosis in mice. A lung-Cpr-null mouse model was utilized, which undergoes doxycycline-induced, Cre recombinase-mediated deletion of the Por gene specifically in airway Club cells and alveolar type 2 cells in the lung.

ABSTRACT Respiration in cyanobacterial thylakoid membranes is interwoven with photosynthetic processes. We have constructed a range of mutants that are impaired in several combinations of respiratory and photosynthetic electron transport complexes and have examined the relative effects on the redox state of the plastoquinone (PQ) pool by using a quinone electrode. Succinate dehydrogenase has a major effect on the PQ redox poise, as mutants lacking this enzyme showed a much more oxidized PQ pool. Mutants lacking type I and II NAD(P)H dehydrogenases also had more oxidized PQ pools. However, in t

This paper focuses on both voltage transients and short-duration RMS variations, and presents a unique and heterogeneous approach to their assessment by applying AI tools. The database consists of both real (obtained from Lithuanian PQ monitoring campaigns) and synthetic data (obtained from the simulation and literature review). Firstly, this paper investigates the fundamental grid component and its harmonics filtering with an IIR shelving filter. Secondly, in a key part, both SVM and KNN are used to classify PQ events by their primary cause in the voltage–duration plane as well as by the type

Acetylsalicylic acid or aspirin is the most widely used drug globally for its anti-inflammatory characteristics, although little is known about its actions on the central nervous system (CNS). We investigated aspirin's potential neuroprotective effects against paraquat-induced neurotoxicity (PQ) in the present study. Adult male wild-type flies were exposed to a diet containing PQ (3 mM) and/or aspirin (1 μM; 5 μM; 10 μM). Flies fed with PQ reduced locomotion and increased mortality. PQ-induced neurotoxicity has also been associated with a marked decrease in acetylcholinesterase (AChE) activity

The integration of hybrid renewable energy sources (HRESs) into the grid is currently being encouraged to meet the increasing demand for electric power and reduce fossil fuels which are causing environmental-related problems.

These estimates were obtained from in situ measurements of functional absorption cross-section (σPSII) and maximum photo

To reveal the in vivo molecular mechanism of Fd-CEF, evaluating ferredoxin reduction–oxidation kinetics proves to be a reliable indicator of Fd-CEF activity. Recent research has demonstrated that the expression of Fd-CEF activity is contingent upon the oxidation of plastoquinone. Moreover, chloroplast NAD(P)H dehydrogenase does not catalyze Fd-CEF in Arabidopsis thaliana. In this study, we analyzed the impact of reduced Fd on Fd-CEF activity by comp
