AB  - Introduction: During fetal development, the proper development of neural and visual systems relies on the maternal supplementation of omega-3 fatty acids through placental transfer. Pregnant women are strongly advised to augment their diet with additional sources of omega-3, such as fish oil (FO). This supplementation has been linked to a reduced risk of preterm birth, pre-eclampsia, and perinatal depression. Recently, higher doses of omega-3 supplementation have been recommended for pregnant women. Considering that omega-3 fatty acids, particularly docosahexaenoic acid (DHA), play a crucial role in maintaining the delicate homeostasis required for the proper functioning of the retina and photoreceptors the effects of high-dose fish oil (FO) supplementation during pregnancy and lactation on the retina and retinal pigmented epithelium (RPE) in healthy offspring warrant better understanding.  Methods: The fatty acid content and the changes in the expression of the genes regulating cholesterol homeostasis and DHA transport in the retina and RPE were evaluated following the high-dose FO supplementation.  Results: Our study demonstrated that despite the high-dose FO treatment during pregnancy and lactation, the rigorous DHA homeostasis in the retina and RPE of the two-month-old offspring remained balanced. Another significant finding of this study is the increase in the expression levels of major facilitator superfamily domain-containing protein (Mfsd2a), a primary DHA transporter. Mfsd2a also serves as a major regulator of transcytosis during development, and a reduction in Mfsd2a levels poses a major risk for the development of leaky blood vessels.  Conclusion: Impairment of the blood-retinal barrier (BRB) is associated with the development of numerous ocular diseases, and a better understanding of how to manipulate transcytosis in the BRB during development can enhance drug delivery through the BRB or contribute to the repair of central nervous system (CNS) barriers.

AB  - Background and objectives: Blackberry is one of the most important berry fruits growing in Serbia. Crops and derived products are rich sources of many natural active compounds, which possess beneficial health effects. In particular, it is possible to point out the role of blackberry and its derived products in hyperglycemia prevention since it is a very common problem among the general population today. Blackberry wine is a product which could have significant beneficial health effects during moderate consumption. The aim of this study was to investigate the α-glucosidase inhibitory activity of blackberry wine and the contribution of some natural compounds to this activity. Methods: Fruit wines were produced through microvinification during controlled fermentation by using pure yeast strain culture. Samples were lyophilized and dissolved in DMSO. The inhibition of α-glucosidase was evaluated by using α-glucosidase and substrate solution, p-nitrophenyl α-Dglucopyranoside. The identification and quantification of some natural compounds was conducted by using UPLC TQ-MS/MS. Results: After lyophilization of the produced blackberry wine, all of the determinations were conducted in four samples. The results for the α-glucosidase inhibitory activity were in the range of 31.5–55.7 µg/mL. The control showed acarbose whit inhibitory activity of 75.3 µg/mL. Moreover, the estimated amount of epicatehin, catehin, chlorogenic, ellagic, and gallic acids and their contribution to the α-glucosidase inhibitory activity of the sample was from 1.7% to 7.7%. Discussion: The obtained results show that blackberry wine is a good inhibitor of α-glucosidase compared to acarbose. The presence of phenolic compounds in wine is due to its extraction from the skin and seeds of blackberry during alcoholic fermentation. Ethanol, which naturally occurs in wine, has a key role in this process. Fruit wine can be considered as a potential functional food. α-glucosidase activity depends on the synergistic and antagonistic effect of natural active compounds in fruit wine.

AB  - The environmental application of the carbonized composites of the Zn-containing metal-organic framework MOF-5 and polyaniline (PANI) in its emeraldine salt and base forms (C-(MOF-5/PANI)) was investigated for the first time. Textural properties and particle size distributions revealed that composites are dominantly mesoporous and nanoscale in nature, while Raman spectroscopy revealed the ZnO phase beneath the carbon matrix. Adsorption of pesticide, dye, and metal cation on C-(MOF-5/PANI) composites in aqueous solutions was evaluated and compared with the behavior of the precursor components, carbonized MOF-5 (cMOF), and carbonized PANIs. A lower MOF-5 content in the precursor, a higher specific surface area, and the pore volume of the composites led to improved adsorption performance for acetamiprid (124 mg/g) and Methylene Blue (135 mg/g). The presence of O/N functional groups in composites is essential for the adsorption of nitrogen-rich pollutants through hydrogen bonding with an estimated monolayer capacity twice as high as that of cMOF. The proton exchange accompanying Cd2+ retention was associated with the Zn/Cd ion exchange, and the highest capacity (9.8 mg/g) was observed for the composite synthesized from the precursor with a high MOF-5 content. The multifunctionality of composites was evidenced in mixtures of pollutants where noticeably better performance for Cd2+ removal was found for the composite compared to cMOF. Competitive binding between three pollutants favored the adsorption of pesticide and dye, thereby hindering to some extent the ion exchange necessary for the removal of metal cations. The results emphasize the importance of the PANI form and MOF-5/PANI weight ratio in precursors for the development of surface, porosity, and active sites in C-(MOF-5/PANI) composites, thus guiding their environmental efficiency. The study also demonstrated that C-(MOF-5/PANI) composites retained studied pollutants much better than carbonized precursor PANIs and showed comparable or better adsorption ability than cMOF.

AB  - Dry olive leaf extract (DOLE) and its active component oleuropein (OLE) were applied as reducing and stabilizing agents to prepare colloidal 20–25 nm silver nanoparticles (Ag NPs). The Ag NPs were characterized using transmission electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction analysis, and absorption spectroscopy. The cytotoxic actions of coated Ag NPs, and their inorganic and organic components, were examined against trophoblast cells and human peripheral blood lymphocytes (PBLs), Gram-positive, Gram-negative bacteria, and yeast. The genotoxic potential was evaluated in PBLs in vitro with the comet assay. Ag/DOLE and Ag/OLE induced cytotoxic effects in both types of cells after 24 h exposure when silver concentrations were 0.025–0.2 mM. However, the most pronounced cytotoxicity exhibits Ag/OLE. Both colloids also caused reduced ROS production in both cell types at 0.1 mM and 0.2 mM, while bare Ag NPs did not alter ROS levels at any of the conditions. Functionalized Ag/DOLE and Ag/OLE did not show genotoxic effects in PBLs, while bare AgNPs increased DNA damage significantly only at 0.2 mM. Regarding the antimicrobial effects, the Ag/OLE had MIC values for all evaluated microorganisms from 0.0625 to less than 0.0312 mM. Also, the antimicrobial effect of Ag/DOLE was significantly higher on Gram-negative bacteria and yeast than on Gram-positive bacteria. Obtained results indicate that Ag/OLE induced the most pronounced biological effects, beneficial for its application as an antimicrobial agent, but with potential risks from exposure to high concentrations that could induce cytotoxicity in healthy human cells.

AB  - More environment-friendly solvents in analytical chemistry are almost inevitable in both sample preparation and analysis to meet the high standards of sustainable chemistry and human welfare. In this review paper, a critical look at the advantages and still unsolved problems of most potential classes of green solvents is presented to give an overview of the current state-of-the-art in this field. Replacing volatile organic compounds (VOCs) by ecofriendly and benign solvents in extractions/separations in sample preparation, as the most tedious and demanding step in analysis, is one of roads toward sustainable chemistry. Water under sub- and supercritical conditions, carbon-dioxide, ionic liquids (ILs), deep eutectic solvents (DESs), and those of natural origin (NADES) belong to the most promising classes of solvents in green analytical chemistry. Basic theory and mechanisms of their use illustrated by representative but not exhaustive list of examples related to complex matrices (environmental and natural food products) from analytical practice are presented in this review. Perspectives of QuEChERS, in line with GAC principles, are highlighted, in line with current trends of “going green” for quick, easy, cheap, effective, rugged, and safe analytical methods. Compliance with green chemistry (GC), especially green analytical chemistry (GAC) principles, is not a fashionable issue but, more the trend toward a sustainable future with greener chemistry; thus, green metrics are an unavoidable tool to measure how green the applied method or procedure is. Herein, the most common tools will be presented and discussed, such as national environmental method index (NEMI), analytical ecoscale, green analytical procedure index (GAPI), analytical greenness calculator (AGREE), complementary green analytical procedure index (ComplexGAPI), and analytical greenness metric for sample preparation (AGREEprep). The future trends for research and development in this still expanding field are presented in a critical view of advantages and disadvantages as well as improvement of the validation of analytical procedures. The creation of new certified reference materials (CRMs) and validated methods for specified analytes in complex matrices is a demanding task in the coming years. Tailor-made solvents with physicochemical properties for intended use are required for the selective extraction and separation and open numerous possibilities and huge potential for future research and industrial applications.

AB  - Given the well-established potential of chalcones in modulating the response of cancer cells to therapeutic interventions, coupled with the growing imperative to enhance their biological attributes, the objective of this study was to synthesize a methoxy-substituted chalcone (OCH3) and assess its capacity to amplify the inhibitory effects of radiation in melanoma cells known for their resistance to radiotherapy. The A375 melanoma cells were subjected to a clinically relevant dose of 2 Gy gamma irradiation. OCH3 was employed either as a standalone treatment or in conjunction with irradiation. The obtained results unveiled the substantial radiosensitizing potential of OCH3 within this specific cell line. Our subsequent investigations will be designed to investigate the underlying mechanisms that contribute to the radiosensitizing properties of OCH3. Moreover, we intend to evaluate the efficacy of OCH3 against other types of radioresistant cancer cells. The presented data not only illuminates the enhanced therapeutic possibilities offered by OCH3 but also highlights its potential as a valuable agent in addressing a wider array of challenging malignancies.

AB  - Among novel cancer chemotherapy approaches, the use of cyclooxygenases (COXs) and lipoxygenases (LOXs) inhibitors represents a promising mean for cancer treatment showing lesser toxicity comparing to the currently used cytotoxic drugs. This study detailed the synthesis of three novel compounds: 1ME, BHTK-AA, and IBU-Ac, each with the capability to concurrently inhibit both COX-2 and 5-LOX. Subsequently, we assessed their effectiveness in inhibiting the proliferation of HeLa cervical and MIA PaCa-2 pancreatic cancer cells. The IC50 values for both examined cell lines were approximately 40 μM, indicating the promising inhibitory potential of the IBU-Ac compound in both types of cancer cells. This finding is positioned to stimulate further investigation into the potential application of IBU-Ac against these particular types of cancers, while also advocating its use in combination with standard anti-cancer protocols, i.e., chemoterapeutics or radiation therapy. The results of this work are also advocating the development and refinement of dual COX-2 and 5-LOX inhibitors, thus improving their efficacy and safety.

AB  - A comprehensive investigation of tyrosine kinase inhibitor erlotinib (ERL) electrochemical behavior and interaction with DNA was performed with the aim to clarify its redox mechanism and to determine the mode of binding. Irreversible oxidation and reduction processes of ERL on glassy carbon electrode were investigated using three voltammetric techniques CV, DPV, SWV in pH range between 2.0 and 9.0. Oxidation was established as an adsorption-controlled process, while the reduction manifested diffusion-adsorption mixed controlled process in acidic medium and adsorption became predominant in the neutral solutions. According to the determined number of transferred electrons and protons, oxidation and reduction mechanism of ERL are proposed. To follow the interaction between ERL and DNA, the multilayer ct-DNA electrochemical biosensor was incubated in ERL solutions concentrations ranged from 2 × 10–7 M to 5 × 10–5 M (pH 4.6) for 30 min. SWV measurements have shown the decrease in deoxyadenosine peak current as a consequence of ERL increased concentration and binding to ct-DNA. The calculated value of binding constant was K = 8.25 × 104 M−1. Molecular docking showed that ERL forms hydrophobic interactions when docked into minor groove, as well as when intercalated, and molecular dynamics analysis predicted the stability of obtained complexes. These results together with voltammetric studies imply that the intercalation could be more dominant way ERL binding to DNA compared to minor groove binding. © 2023 Elsevier B.V.

AB  - Recent data indicate that lead (Pb) can induce adverse effects even at low exposure levels. Moreover, the corresponding mechanisms of low Pb toxicity have not been well identified. In the liver and the kidneys, Pb was found to induce various toxic mechanisms leading to organ physiological disruption. Therefore, the purpose of the study was to simulate low-dose Pb exposure in an animal model with the aim of assessing oxidative status and essential element levels as the main mechanism of Pb toxicity in the liver and kidneys. Furthermore, dose–response modelling was performed in order to determine the benchmark dose (BMD). Forty-two male Wistar rats were divided into seven groups: one control group, and six groups treated for 28 days with 0.1, 0.5, 1, 3, 7, and 15 mg Pb/kg b.w./day, respectively. Oxidative status parameters (superoxide dismutase activity (SOD), superoxide anion radical (O2−), malondialdehyde (MDA), total sulfhydryl groups (SHG), and advanced oxidation protein products (AOPP)) and Pb, copper (Cu), zinc (Zn), manganese (Mn), and iron (Fe) levels were measured. Lowering Cu levels (BMD: 2.7 ng/kg b.w./day), raising AOPP levels (BMD: 0.25 µg/kg b.w./day) in the liver, and inhibiting SOD (BMD: 1.3 ng/kg b.w./day) in the kidneys appear to be the main mechanisms of Pb toxicity. The lowest BMD was derived for a decrease in Cu levels in liver, indicating that this effect is the most sensitive.

AB  - The fruit wines from blueberry were made by microvinification procedure. Wines were produced in the absence or presence of sugar and/or enzymatic preparation glycosidase (EPG). Selected phenolic acids were quantified using UPLC/MS-MS analysis. Total phenolic content (TPC) was determined by the Folin-Ciocalteu method. Also, 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) and ferric reducing ability of plasma (FRAP) methods were applied. The α-glucosidase inhibitory activity of blueberry wines was also investigated. Wines made with addition of sugar and EPG showed the best results. Phenolic profile and biological activity of blueberry wine depended from microvinification procedure which was used in the production.

AB  - The phenolic composition and antioxidant activity of wine and fermented pomace (FP) from Cabernet Sauvignon grapes harvested at three ripening stages were evaluated using LC-MS/MS and spectrophotometric analyses. An investigation of grey mold’s (Botrytis cinerea) influence on wine phenolic content modulation was conducted as well. Finally, the influence of the plant’s ripening stage on the dynamics of the phenolic compounds extracted from wine and FP obtained from fully ripe grapes was evaluated. In this study, the content of catechin, epicatechin, quercetin, and p-coumaric, gallic, and syringic acids was analyzed. Wine and FP were obtained after extended maceration during the spontaneous and inoculated fermentation of fully ripe grapes. When comparing the wine and FP obtained from véraison, fully ripe, and overripe grapes, catechin was the most abundant in wine (40.13 ± 3.25 mg/L) and quercetin in FP (10.96 ± 0.14 mg/kg). A decrease in analyzed phenolic compounds was noticed in wine produced from grapes affected by Botrytis cinerea, and the highest depletion was found for quercetin. The use of a winemaking technique that involved differing maceration periods and inoculation using yeasts as well as spontaneous fermentation significantly modulated the phenolic content of derived wines and FP. The dynamics of the phenolic compounds extracted into wine, evaluated using a principal component analysis (PCA), highlighted contents of catechin and epicatechin. After a decrease in maceration, the PCA revealed a notable content of gallic and syringic acids, as well as quercetin, in samples of FP. This study offers a perspective for future research and the development of functional food with a high content of phenolic compounds originating from red grape products, such as wine and fermented pomace.

AB  - In the present article we investigate the nonlinear dynamics of microtubules, the basic components of the eukaryotic cytoskeleton, relying on the known general model. We introduce the W-potential energy, describing a crucial interaction among constitutive particles within the microtubule. Three kinds of this potential are studied, one symmetrical and two non-symmetrical. We demonstrate an advantage of the latter ones. Solutions of crucial differential equations are solitary waves. The stability of the solutions having physical sense is studied. We show that only subsonic solitary waves are stable, while supersonic ones are not.

AB  - Although sample preparation, as an unavoidable step of the analytical process should be simple, it is very often identified as a bottleneck. Simplicity of sample preparation based on cost-effective and non-hazardous materials is mandatory for any sustainable and environmental friendly approach. Aqueous biphasic systems (ABS), based on functionalized ionic liquids (FILs) are acceptable alternatives to classical extraction procedures, due to the replacement of organic solvent with diluted aqueous-soluble ionic liquids. In this work, two water soluble FILs based on 2-mercaptobenzothiazolate anion, [mbt]: 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium [mbt] ([bmim][mbt]) and 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium [mbt] ([emim][mbt]), were designed and synthesized in order to selectively extract Cd(II) and Pb(II) from the river sediment. It was found that [mbt]– anion acts as the ligand and forms complexes with Cd(II) and Pb(II) which are responsible for their efficient extraction, while cation is more responsible for the formation of ABS. Partition coefficients of 408 and 180 for Cd(II) and Pb(II), respectively, were obtained using ABS based on [bmim][mbt]. Direct extraction of Cd(II) and Pb(II) from the river sediment has been investigated and obtained optimal conditions are: 60 min direct contact of the aqueous solution of [bmim][mbt] and the sediment sample at 90 °C, followed by formation of ABS upon addition of potassium citrate. Using AGRE and AGREEprep tools greenness of the proposed method for direct extraction of Cd(II) and Pb(II) from the sediment are calculated. Obtained values of 0.69 and 0.71 for Cd(II) and Pb(II) extraction, respectively, showed a high level of the greenness of the proposed method.

AB  - The antibacterial performance and cytotoxic examination of in situ prepared silver nanoparticles (Ag NPs), on inorganic-organic hybrid nanopowder consisting of zirconium dioxide nanoparticles (ZrO2 NPs) and dihydroquercetin (DHQ), was performed against Gram (−) bacteria Escherichia coli and Gram (+) bacteria Staphylococcus aureus, as well as against human cervical cancer cells HeLa and healthy MRC-5 human cells. The surface modification of ZrO2 NPs, synthesized by the sol-gel method, with DHQ leads to the interfacial charge transfer (ICT) complex formation indicated by the appearance of absorption in the visible spectral range. The prepared samples were thoroughly characterized (TEM, XRD, reflection spectroscopy), and, in addition, the spectroscopic observations are supported by the density functional theory (DFT) calculations using a cluster model. The concentration- and time-dependent antibacterial tests indicated a complete reduction of bacterial species, E. coli and S. aureus, for all investigated concentrations of silver (0.10, 0.25, and 0.50 mg/mL) after 24 h of contact. On the other side, the functionalized ZrO2 NPs with DHQ, before and after deposition of Ag NPs, do not display a significant decrease in the viability of HeLa MRC-5 cells in any of the used concentrations compared to the control.

AB  - Two new cationic Cu(II) complexes of cyclam (1,4,8,11-tetraazacyclotetradecane) and aminocarboxylate coligands glycine or alanine have been synthesized. The complexes were characterized by elemental analysis (C, H and N), molar electrical conductivity, magnetic susceptibility measurement at room temperature, spectral methods (UV/Vis and Fourier transform infrared), as well as by thermogravimetric (TG) and differential thermal analysis (DTA). The analytical data of the complexes show the formation of mononuclear complexes with general formula [Cu(L)cyc](ClO4)2·nH2O, A) L = glycine, n = 1.5 and B) L = alanine, n = 2.5. The tetradentate ligand cyclam was coordinated to metals through four N donors. The spectroscopic data suggested that the amino carboxylate ligands coordinated via their carboxylate ion moieties. The six- -coordinate octahedral geometry around Cu(II) in both complexes was presumed. TG-DTA analysis indicated that complex B decomposed exothermally in a single step in the range of 310–400°C. The cytotoxic activity of Cu(II) complexes and the starting ligands were tested against human cervix adenocarcinoma cell line (HeLa), human melanoma (FemX) and human colon carcinoma (LS174). The IC50 values for the Cu(II) complexes were from 48.35–82.25 μM. Both complexes were tested for their antimicrobial activity against Staphylococcus aureus, Bacillus subtilis, Escherichia coli and the yeast Candida albicans.

AB  - Aims GABAergic modulation involved in cognitive processing appears to be substantially changed in Alzheimer's disease (AD). In a widely used 5xFAD model of AD, we aimed to assess if negative and positive allosteric modulators of α5 GABAA receptors (NAM and PAM, respectively) would affect social interaction, social, object and spatial memory, and neuroinflammation. Methods After 10-day treatment with PAM, NAM, or solvent, 6-month-old transgenic and non-transgenic 5xFAD mice underwent testing in a behavioral battery. Gene expressions of IL-1β, IL-6, TNF-α, GFAP, and IBA-1 were determined in hippocampus and prefrontal cortex by qPCR. Results PAM treatment impaired spatial learning in transgenic females compared to solvent-treated transgenic females, and social recognition in transgenic and non-transgenic males. NAM treatment declined social interaction in transgenic and non-transgenic males, while had beneficial effect on cognitive flexibility in non-transgenic males compared to solvent-treated non-transgenic males. Transgenic animals have not fully displayed cognitive symptoms, but neuroinflammation was confirmed. NAM reduced proinflammatory gene expressions in transgenic females and astrogliosis in transgenic males compared to pathological controls. Conclusion PAM and NAM failed to exert favorable behavioral effects in transgenic animals. Suppression of neuroinflammation obtained with NAM calls for more studies with GABAergic ligands in amyloid beta- and/or tau-dependent models with prominent neuroinflammation.

AB  - Polyelectrolyte complexes (PECs) are attractive carriers with recognized potential toenhance oral delivery of poorly soluble high-dosed low-molecular-weight drugs. The formulationof solid oral dosage forms requires the drying of PECs, which may affect their physicochemicaland biopharmaceutical properties. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of spray-drying on the properties of ibuprofen-loaded chitosan/xanthan gum PECs and to assess the drugrelease kinetics from such PECs filled into hard capsules in comparison with corresponding PECswhich are dried under ambient conditions. The yield, ibuprofen content, entrapment efficiency,and residual moisture content of spray-dried PECs were lower than those of ambient-dried PECs.Better flowability of spray-dried PECs was attributed to the almost spherical particle shape,shown by scanning electron microscopy. DSC and PXRD analysis confirmed the amorphizationof ibuprofen during spray-drying. All the investigated PECs, obtained by drying under ambientconditions as well as by spray-drying, had high rehydration capacity both in 0.1 M hydrochloricacid (pH 1.2) and phosphate buffer pH 7.4. In vitro ibuprofen release from dried PECs wascontrolled during 12 h with the release of approximately 30% of entrapped ibuprofen. Spray-driedPECs provided better control of ibuprofen diffusion from the carrier compared to the ambient-dried ones.

AB  - Escin is an amphiphilic and weakly acidic drug that oral administration may lead to the irritation of gastric mucosa. The entrapment of escin into chitosan (CH)/xanthan gum (XG)-based polyelectrolyte complexes (PECs) can facilitate controlled drug release which may be beneficial for the reduction of its side effects. This study aimed to investigate the influence of escin content and drying method on the formation, physicochemical, and controlled, pH-dependent drug release properties of CH/XG-based PECs. Measurements of transmittance, con- ductivity, and rheological characterization confirmed the formation of CH/XG-based PECs with escin entrapped at escin-to-polymers mass ratios 1:1, 1:2, and 1:4. Ambient-dried PECs had higher yield, entrapment efficiency, and escin content in comparison with spray-dried ones. FT-IR spectra confirmed the interactions between CH, XG, and escin, which were stronger in ambient-dried PECs. PXRD and DSC analyses showed the amorphous escin character in all dry PECs, regardless of the drying method. The most promising controlled and pH-dependent in vitro escin release was from the ambient-dried PEC at the escin-to-polymers mass ratio of 1:1. For that reason and due to the highest yield and entrapment efficiency, this carrier has the potential to prevent the irritation of gastric mucosa after oral administration of escin.

AB  - This study aimed to investigate the effect of 150 mg/L sodium fluoride (NaF) on redox status parameters and essential metals [copper (Cu), iron (Fe), and zinc (Zn)] in the blood, liver, kidney, brain, and spleen of Wistar rats and to determine the protective potential of selenium (Se) against fluoride (F-) toxicity. Male Wistar rats were randomly distributed in groups of five (n=5) receiving tap water (control) or water with NaF 150 mg/L, NaF 150 mg/L + Se 1.5 mg/L, and Se 1.5 mg/L solutions ad libitum for 28 days. Fluorides caused an imbalance in the redox and biometal (Cu, Fe, and Zn) status, leading to high superoxide anion (O2 .-) and malondialdehyde (MDA) levels in the blood and brain and a drop in superoxide dismutase (SOD1) activity in the liver and its increase in the brain and kidneys. Se given with NaF improved MDA, SOD1, and O2 .- in the blood, brain, and kidneys, while alone it decreased SH group levels in the liver and kidney. Biometals both reduced and increased F- toxicity. Further research is needed before Se should be considered as a promising strategy for mitigating F- toxicity. © 2022 Jelena Radovanović, Biljana Antonijević, Katarina Baralić, Marijana Ćurčić, Danijela Đukić-Ćosić, Zorica Bulat, Dragana Javorac, Aleksandra Buha Đorđević, Jelena Kotur-Stevuljević, Emina Sudar-Milovanović, Evica Antonijević Miljaković, Miloš Beloica, and Zoran Mandinić, published by Sciendo.

Izloženost fluoridu dovela je do poremećaja redoks-parametara i koncentracija istraživanih biometala.

AB  - Several pyrazoloquinolinone (PQ) ligands were recently discovered as functionally selective positive modulators at the PQ site of α6-containing GABAA receptors. PQs are also neutral modulators at the benzodiazepine site. We assessed the influence of PQ compounds from three structural groups (PZ-II-029 and related deuterated analogues DK-I-56-1, RV-I-029, DK-I-60-3 and DK-I-86-1; LAU 463 and related analogues DK-I-58-1 and DK-II-58-1; and DK-I-87-1), alone and in combination with diazepam, on the behaviour of male Sprague–Dawley rats. An excellent behavioural safety profile of all tested PQs was demonstrated in the spontaneous locomotor activity, rotarod, loss of righting reflex and pentylenetetrazol tests. In interaction studies, only PZ-II-029 and its analogues prevented the ataxic effects of the benzodiazepine, as assessed in the rotarod test and during monitoring of rat locomotor activity after awakening from the loss of righting reflex. Published electrophysiological profiles of PQ ligands imply that positive modulation elicited at α6-GABAA receptors that contain the γ2 and δ subunit, rather than their neutral modulatory action at the benzodiazepine site, may prevent the ataxic action of diazepam. Thus, PZ-II-029 and its deuterated analogues are not prone to untoward interactions with benzodiazepines and may indeed completely abolish their ataxic action, seen at therapeutic, and especially toxic concentrations.

AB  - This study aimed to evaluate, in vitro, the antioxidative potential of fruit wines produced from berry fruits (i.e., black chokeberry, blueberry, blackberry, and raspberry), cherry, and apple by different technological processes. For this purpose, the activities of antioxidant enzymes (catalase, glutathione peroxidase (GPx), and superoxide dismutase (SOD)) and malondialdehyde (MDA) content as a marker of membrane damage were determined in wine-treated synaptosomes with hydrogen peroxide-induced oxidative stress. All studied wines induced increased antioxidant enzyme activities and decreased MDA levels compared to hydrogen peroxide-treated synaptosomes (i.e., control). The highest SOD activity was observed in synaptosomes treated with blackberry wine (6.81 U/mg), whereas blueberry wine induced the highest catalase and glutathione peroxidase activities (0.058 U/mg and 0.017 U/mg, respectively). Black chokeberry proved to be the best in lipid peroxidation protection with the lowest MDA value (1.42 nmol/mg). Finally, principal component analysis and hierarchical cluster analysis additionally highlighted a higher antioxidant capacity of wines produced from dark-skinned fruits (i.e., blackberry, black chokeberry, and blueberry). The results suggest protective effects of the fruit wines against oxidative damage, and, accordingly, their promising application as functional food.

AB  - The introduction of the high-speed tableting machines and the lack of excipients with good flow and compaction properties required for direct compression process have increased research interest in the development of co-processed excipients. Melt granulation, as an environmentally friendly and cost-effective method, has recently been recognized as a promising co-processing technique. The aim of the present study was to prepare lipid-based co-processed excipients by in situ fluidized bed melt granulation and to investigated their suitability for direct compression process. Lactose monohydrate was co-processed with glyceryl dibehenate (Compritol® 888 ATO) or glyceryl palmitostearate (Precirol® ATO 5), as lipophilic meltable binders. Besides the flowability testing, dynamic compaction analysis was applied for thorough investigation into the tableting properties of developed co-processed excipients. Solid state characterization, performed by means of XRPD and DRIFT, confirmed the absence of chemical changes of the single components of co-processed excipients. Co-processed excipients showed improved flowability in comparison with single ingredients and corresponding physical mixtures. Novel co-processed excipients were found to have better tabletability profiles than physical mixtures of the ingredients, and were able to retain acceptable tensile strength values at high content of paracetamol in tableting mixture. Tablets with high tensile strength could be obtained with less work of compression needed in comparison with the commercial lactose-based excipients. Furthermore, novel lipid-based co-processed excipients were found to be highly superior regarding the antiadhesive and lubricating properties, with no additional lubricants required.
