Abstract
Intervertebral disc degeneration (IVDD) can be caused by aging, injury, and genetic factors. The pathological changes associated with IVDD include the excessive accumulation of reactive oxygen species (ROS), cellular pyroptosis, and extracellular matrix (ECM) degradation. There are currently no approved specific molecular therapies for IVDD. In this study, we developed a multifunctional and microenvironment-responsive metal-phenolic network release platform, termed TMP@Alg-PBA/PVA, which could treat (IL-1β)-induced IVDD. The metal-phenolic network (TA-Mn-PVP, TMP) released from this platform targeted mitochondria to efficiently scavenge ROS and reduce ECM degradation. Pyroptosis was suppressed through the inhibition of the IL-17/ERK signaling pathway. These findings demonstrate the versatility of the platform. And in a rat model of IVDD, TMP@Alg-PBA/PVA exhibited excellent therapeutic effects by reducing the progression of the disease. TMP@Alg-PBA/PVA, therefore, presents clinical potential for the treatment of IVDD.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Our previous studies demonstrated that divalent organic iron (Fe) proteinate sources with higher complexation or chelation strengths as expressed by the greater quotient of formation (Qf) values displayed higher Fe bioavailabilities for broilers. Sodium iron ethylenediaminetetraacetate (NaFeEDTA) is a trivalent organic Fe source with the strongest chelating ligand EDTA. However, the bioavailability of Fe when administered as NaFeEDTA in broilers and other agricultural animals remains untested. Herein, the chemical characteristics of 12 NaFeEDTA products were determined. Of these, one feed grade NaFeEDTA (Qf = 2.07 × 108), one food grade NaFeEDTA (Qf = 3.31 × 108), and one Fe proteinate with an extremely strong chelation strength (Fe-Prot ES, Qf value = 8,590) were selected. Their bioavailabilities relative to Fe sulfate (FeSO4·7H2O) for broilers fed with a conventional corn-soybean meal diet were evaluated during d 1 to 21 by investigating the effects of the above Fe sources and added Fe levels on the growth performance, hematological indices, Fe contents, activities and gene expressions of Fe-containing enzymes in various tissues of broilers. RESULTS NaFeEDTA sources varied greatly in their chemical characteristics. Plasma Fe concentration (PI), transferrin saturation (TS), liver Fe content, succinate dehydrogenase (SDH) activities in liver, heart, and kidney, catalase (CAT) activity in liver, and SDH mRNA expressions in liver and kidney increased linearly (P < 0.05) with increasing levels of Fe supplementation. However, differences among Fe sources were detected (P < 0.05) only for PI, liver Fe content, CAT activity in liver, SDH activities in heart and kidney, and SDH mRNA expressions in liver and kidney. Based on slope ratios from multiple linear regressions of the above indices on daily dietary analyzed Fe intake, the average bioavailabilities of Fe-Prot ES, feed grade NaFeEDTA, and food grade NaFeEDTA relative to the inorganic FeSO4·7H2O (100%) for broilers were 139%, 155%, and 166%, respectively. CONCLUSIONS The bioavailabilities of organic Fe sources relative to FeSO4·7H2O were closely related to their Qf values, and NaFeEDTA sources with higher Qf values showed higher Fe bioavailabilities for broilers fed with a conventional corn-soybean meal diet.

Abstract
Reactive oxygen species (ROS) are closely related to oxidative stress, aging, and the onset of human diseases. To mitigate ROS-induced damages, extensive research has focused on examining the antioxidative attributes of various synthetic/natural substances. Coordination compounds serving as synthetic antioxidants have emerged as a promising approach to attenuate ROS toxicity. Herein, we investigated the antioxidant potential of a series of Fe(III) (1), Mn(III)Mn(II) (2) and Cu(II) (3) coordination compounds synthesized with the ligand N-(2-hydroxybenzyl)-N-(2-pyridylmethyl)[(3-chloro)(2-hydroxy)]-propylamine in Saccharomyces cerevisiae exposed to oxidative stress. We also assessed the antioxidant potential of these complexes in the alternative model of study, Galleria mellonella. DPPH analysis indicated that these complexes presented moderate antioxidant activity. However, treating Saccharomyces cerevisiae with 1, 2 and 3 increased the tolerance against oxidative stress and extended yeast lifespan. The treatment of yeast cells with these complexes decreased lipid peroxidation and catalase activity in stressed cells, whilst no change in SOD activity was observed. Moreover, these complexes induced the Hsp104 expression. In G. mellonella, complex administration extended larval survival under H2O2 stress and did not affect the insect's life cycle. Our results suggest that the antioxidant potential exhibited by these complexes could be further explored to mitigate various oxidative stress-related disorders.

Abstract
Reactive oxygen species(ROS) generation with subsequent DNA damage is one of the principle mechanisms of action assigned to copper-based anticancer complexes. The efficacy of this type of chemotherapeutic may be reduced in the low oxygen environment of tumours. In this study the cytotoxicity of three complexes, [Cu(dips)(phen)] (1), [Cu(ph)(phen)]·2H2O (2) and [Cu(ph)(bpy)]·H2O (3) (disp: 3,5-diisopropylsalicylate, phen: 1,10- phenanthroline, ph: phthalate, bpy: 2,2'-bipyridyl) were assessed for anticancer activity in the breast-cancer derived MCF-7 line under normoxic, hypoxic and anoxic conditions. In an immortalised keratinocyte HaCaT cell line, the cytotoxicity of complexes 2 and 3 was significantly reduced under both normoxic and hypoxic conditions, whilst the cytotoxicity of complex 1 was increased under hypoxic conditions. The ability of the complexes to generate ROS in the MCF-7 cell line was evaluated as was their ability to act as superoxide dismutase(SOD) and catalase mimics using a yeast cell assay. ROS generation was significant for complexes 2 and 3, less so for complex 1 though all three complexes had SOD mimetic ability. Given the ternary nature of the complexes, solution speciation studies were undertaken but were only successful for complex 3, due to solubility issues with the other two complexes. The concentration distribution of various species, formed in aqueous solution, was evaluated as a function of pH and confirmed that complex 3 is the dominant species at physiological pH in the mM concentration range. However, as its concentration diminishes, it experiences a progressive dissociation, leading to the formation of binary complexes of bpy alongside unbound phthalate.

Abstract
Iron is an essential micronutrient for human biology and health, but high iron levels can be dangerous. Both iron deficiency and iron overload have been linked to reproductive health. This review summarizes the effects of iron deficiency and iron overload on men of reproductive age, women of reproductive age, and pregnant women. In addition, appropriate iron levels and the need for iron and nutritional supplements at different stages of life and pregnancy are discussed. In general, men should be aware of the risk of iron overload at any stage of life; women should take appropriate iron supplements before menopause; postmenopausal women should pay attention to the risk of iron overload; and pregnant women should receive reasonable iron supplementation in middle and late pregnancy. By summarizing evidence on the relationship between iron and reproductive health, this review aims to promote the development of strategies to optimize reproductive capacity from the perspective of nutrition. However, additional detailed experimental investigations and clinical studies are needed to assess the underlying causes and mechanisms of the observed associations between iron and reproductive health.

Abstract
The genus Fonsecaea is one of the etiological agents of chromoblastomycosis (CBM), a chronic subcutaneous disease that is difficult to treat. This work aimed to evaluate the effects of copper(II), manganese(II) and silver(I) complexes coordinated with 1,10-phenanthroline (phen)/1,10-phenanthroline-5,6-dione (phendione) on Fonsecaea spp. Our results revealed that most of these complexes were able to inhibit F. pedrosoi, F. monophora and F. nubica conidial viability with minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) values ranging from 0.6 to 100 µM. The most effective complexes against F. pedrosoi planktonic conidial cells, the main etiologic agent of CBM, were [Ag(phen)2]ClO4 and [Ag2(3,6,9-tdda)(phen)4].EtOH, (tdda: 3,6,9-trioxaundecanedioate), displaying MIC values equal to 1.2 and 0.6 µM, respectively. These complexes were effective in reducing the viability of F. pedrosoi biofilm formation and maturation. Silver(I)-tdda-phen, combined with itraconazole, reduced the viability and extracellular matrix during F. pedrosoi biofilm development. Moreover, both silver(I) complexes inhibited either metallo- or aspartic-type peptidase activities of F. pedrosoi as well as its conidia into mycelia transformation and melanin production. In addition, the complexes induced the production of intracellular reactive oxygen species in F. pedrosoi. Taken together, our data corroborate the antifungal action of metal-phen complexes, showing they represent a therapeutic option for fungal infections, including CBM.

Abstract
Antioxidant activity toward H2O2, anion radical superoxide, hydroxyl and DPPH (2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl) of two manganese complexes [Mn(III)(bpa)2]Cl.H2O (1) and [(Cl)Mn(μ-hbpclnol)(μ-bpclnol)Mn](ClO4).3H2O (2) (hbpa = (2-hydroxybenzyl-2-pyridylmethyl)amine and h2bpclnol = (N-(2-hydroxybenzyl)-N-(2-pyridylmethyl)[(3-chloro)(2-hydroxy)]propylamine) are presented. X-ray diffraction studies were performed for complex (1). Both complexes presented similar or better activities than reference complex [Mn(salen)Cl], when the interaction between them and ROS (H2O2, O2•- and •OH), was monitored, by EPR (Electron Paramagnetic Resonance), in PBS, DMSO and water. The antioxidant activity rank of complexes toward •OH, generated by Fenton reaction and monitored by EPR, is (2) > (1) > [Mn(salen)Cl], in water (0.1% of DMSO for each complex), with the values of the IC50 of 7.2 (±1.6), 15.5 (±1.8) and 29.1 (±2.01) μM respectively. EPR data presented herein suggest that complex (2) presents the better scavenging activity toward hydroxyl, being in good agreement with TBARS assay results, in which complex (2) presented the best inhibitory activity toward lipid peroxidation, employing Swiss mice liver homogenate tissue model. IC50 values obtained from the interaction between these complexes and hydroxyl, using TBARS method, were: 0.88 (± 0.029); 0.73 (± 0.01) and 42.7 (± 3.5) nM, respectively for (1), (2) and [Mn(salen)Cl]. Complexes (1) and (2) are regulating the lipid homeostasis, protecting the tissue from the lipid peroxidation, in nanomolar scale, motivating in vivo studies. Redox properties and radical scavenging activity of complexes toward DPPH are non-linear and solvent dependent. Furthermore, the monitoring of antioxidant activity probed by EPR could be a fair and appropriate study to guide more advanced investigations.

Abstract
The interaction between CuII, FeIII and MnII complexes, derived from the ligands 1-[bis(pyridine-2-ylmethyl)amino]-3-chloropropan-2-ol (hpclnol) and bis(pyridine-2-ylmethyl)amine (bpma), and the free radical 2,2-diphenyl-1-(2,4,6-trinitrophenyl)hydrazyl (DPPH) and reactive oxygen species (ROS), was investigated by colorimetric and EPR (Electron Paramagnetic Resonance) techniques. A comparison between these results and those reported to [Mn(salen)Cl] or EUK-8 was also addressed. EPR studies allowed us the identification of intermediates species such as superoxide‑copper(I) and superoxide‑copper(II), a mixed-valence FeIIIFeII species and a 16-line feature attributed to MnIII-oxo-MnIV species. The biomarker malondialdehyde (MDA) was determined by TBARS assay in S. cerevisiae cells, and the determination of the IC50 indicate that the antioxidant activity shown dependence on the metal center (CuII ≈ FeIII > MnII ≈ [Mn(salen)Cl]. The lipid peroxidation attenuation was also investigated in liver homogenates obtained from Swiss mice and the IC50 values were in the nanomolar concentrations. We demonstrated here that all the complexes interact with the free radical DPPH and with ROS (H2O2, O2•- and hydroxyl radical), enhancing the cellular protection against oxidative stress generated by hydroxyl radical, employing two experimental model systems, S. cerevisiae (in vivo) and mouse liver (ex vivo).

Abstract
Coordination compounds that mimic Purple Acid Phosphatases (PAPs) have drawn attention in the bioinorganic field due to their capacity to cleave phosphodiester bonds. However, their catalytic activity upon phosphate triesters is still unexplored. Thus, we report the synthesis and characterization of two binuclear complexes, [MnIIMnIII(L1)(OAc)2]BF4 (1) and [MnIIFeIII(L1)(OAc)2]BF4 (2) (H2L1 = 2-[N,N-bis-(2- pyridilmethyl)aminomethyl]-4-methyl-6-[N-(2-hydroxy-3-formyl-5-methylbenzyl)-N-(2-pyridylmethyl)aminomethyl]phenol), their hydrolytic activity and antioxidant potential. The complexes were fully characterized, including the X-Ray diffraction (XRD) of 1. Density functional theory (DFT) calculations were performed to better understand their electronic and structural properties and phosphate conjugates. The catalytic activity was analyzed for two model substrates, a diester (BDNPP) and a triester phosphate (DEDNPP). The results suggest enhancement of the hydrolysis reaction by 170 to 1500 times, depending on the substrate and complex. It was possible to accompany the catalytic reaction of DEDNPP hydrolysis by phosphorus nuclear magnetic resonance (31P NMR), showing that both 1 and 2 are efficient catalysts. Moreover, we also addressed that 1 and 2 present a relevant antioxidant potential, protecting the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae, used as eukaryotic model of study, against the exposure of cells to acute oxidative stress.

Abstract
Methanol can be used by Pichia pastoris as the carbon source and inducer to produce recombinant proteins in high-cell-density fermentations. However, methanol oxidation at high specific growth rates can lead to the reactive oxygen species (ROS) accumulation, resulting in cell damage. Here, we study the relationship between methanol feeding and ROS accumulation by controlling specific growth rate during the induction phase. A higher specific growth rate increased the level of ROS accumulation caused by methanol oxidation. While the cell growth rate was proportional to specific growth rate, maximum total protein production and highest enzyme activity were achieved at a specific growth rate of 0.05 1/h as compared to that of 0.065 1/h. Moreover, oxidative damage induced by over-accumulation of ROS in P. pastoris during the methanol induction phase caused cell death and reduced protein expression ability. ROS scavenging system analysis revealed that the higher specific growth rate, especially 0.065 1/h, resulted in increased intracellular catalase activity and decreased glutathione content significantly. Finally, Spearman's correlation analysis further revealed that the reduced glutathione might be beneficial for maintaining cell viability and increasing protein production under oxidative stress caused by ROS toxic accumulation. Our findings suggest an integrated strategy to control the feeding of the essential substrate based on analyzing its response to oxidative stress caused by ROS toxic accumulation, as well as develop a strategy to optimize fed-batch fermentation.

Abstract
The overproduction of reactive oxygen species (ROS) induces oxidative stress, a well-known process associated with aging and several human pathologies, such as cancer and neurodegenerative diseases. A large number of synthetic compounds have been described as antioxidant enzyme mimics, capable of eliminating ROS and/or reducing oxidative damage. In this study, we investigated the antioxidant activity of a water-soluble 1,10-phenantroline-octanediaoate Mn2+-complex on cells under oxidative stress, and assessed its capacity to attenuate alpha-synuclein (aSyn) toxicity and aggregation, a process associated with increased oxidative stress. This Mn2+-complex exhibited a significant antioxidant potential, reducing intracelular oxidation and increasing oxidative stress resistance in S. cerevisiae cells and in vivo, in G. mellonella, increasing the activity of the intracellular antioxidant enzymes superoxide dismutase and catalase. Strikingly, the Mn2+-complex reduced both aSyn oligomerization and aggregation in human cell cultures and, using NMR and DFT/molecular docking we confirmed its interaction with the C-terminal region of aSyn. In conclusion, the Mn2+-complex appears as an excellent lead for the design of new phenanthroline derivatives as alternative compounds for preventing oxidative damages and oxidative stress - related diseases.

Abstract
Diabetes mellitus is a prevalent metabolic and endocrine illness affecting people all over the world and is of serious health and financial concern. Antidiabetic medicine delivered through pharmacotherapy, including synthetic antidiabetic drugs, are known to have several negative effects. Fortunately, several natural polysaccharides have antidiabetic properties, and the use of these polysaccharides as adjuncts to conventional therapy is becoming more common, particularly in underdeveloped nations. Oxidative stress has a critical role in the development of diabetes mellitus (DM). The review of current literature presented here focusses, therefore, on the antioxidant properties of mushroom polysaccharides used in the management of diabetic complications, and discusses whether these antioxidant properties contribute to the deactivation of the oxidative stress-related signalling pathways, and to the amelioration of β-cell dysfunction and insulin resistance. In this study, we conducted a systematic review of the relevant information concerning the antioxidant and antidiabetic effects of mushrooms from electronic databases, such as PubMed, Scopus or Google Scholar, for the period 1994 to 2021. In total, 104 different polysaccharides from mushrooms have been found to have antidiabetic effects. Most of the literature on mushroom polysaccharides has demonstrated the beneficial effects of these polysaccharides on reactive oxygen and nitrogen species (RONS) levels. This review discuss the effects of these polysaccharides on hyperglycemia and other alternative antioxidant therapies for diabetic complications through their applications and limits, in order to gain a better understanding of how they can be used to treat DM. Preclinical and phytochemical investigations have found that most of the active polysaccharides extracted from mushrooms have antioxidant activity, reducing oxidative stress and preventing the development of DM. Further research is necessary to confirm whether mushroom polysaccharides can effectively alleviate hyperglycemia, and the mechanisms by which they do this, and to investigate whether these polysaccharides might be utilized as a complementary therapy for the prevention and management of DM in the future.

Abstract
Metals are persistent worldwide being harmful for diverse organisms and having complex and combined effects with other contaminants in the environment. Sea turtles accumulate these contaminants being considered good bioindicator species for marine pollution. However, very little is known on how this is affecting these charismatic animals. São Tomé and Príncipe archipelago harbours important green sea turtle (Chelonia mydas) nesting and feeding grounds. The main goal of this study was to determine metal and metalloid accumulation in the blood of females C. mydas nesting in São Tomé Island, and evaluate the possible impacts of this contamination by addressing molecular stress responses. Gene expression analysis was performed in blood targeting genes involved in detoxification/sequestration and metal transport (mt, mtf and fer), and in antioxidant and oxidative stress responses (cat, sod, gr, tdx, txrd, selp and gclc). Micronuclei analysis in blood was also addressed as a biomarker of genotoxicity. Present results showed significant correlations between different gene expressions with the metals evaluated. The best GLM models and significant relationships were found for mt expression, for which 78% of the variability was attributed to metal levels (Al, Cu, Fe, Hg, Pb and Zn), followed by micronuclei count (65% - Cr, Cu, Fe, Hg, Mn and Zn), tdx expression (52% - Cd, Fe, Mn, Pb and Se), and cat expression (52% - As, Fe, Se and Cd x Hg). Overall, this study demonstrates that these green sea turtles are trying to adapt to the oxidative stress and damage produced by metals through the increased expression of antioxidants and other protectors, which raises concerns about the impacts on these endangered organisms' fitness. Furthermore, promising biomarker candidates associated to metal stress were identified in this species that may be used in future biomonitoring studies using C. mydas' blood, allowing for a temporal follow-up of the organisms.

Abstract
Copper(II) complexes of pyridine-based ligands functionalized with alanine (PydiAla) and tyrosine (PydiTyr) moieties have been synthesized as novel superoxide dismutase mimics. The complexes were characterized by pH-potentiometric, spectroscopic (UV-vis, circular dichroism, mass spectrometry, electron paramagnetic resonance spectroscopy), computational (DFT), and X-ray diffraction methods. Both ligands form high stability copper(II) complexes via the (Npy,N-,N-) donor set supported by the binding of the carboxylate pendant arms. Although the coordination mode is the same for the two systems, the tyrosine containing counterpart exhibits increased copper(II) binding affinity, which is most likely due to the presence of the aromatic moiety of the side chains. Both copper(II) complexes are capable of binding N-methylimidazole, and the formation of the corresponding ternary species was observed at physiological pH. The binary and ternary copper(II) complexes exhibit high SOD activity. The PydiTyr complex exhibits about 1 order of magnitude higher activity than the PydiAla complex. This is probably due to the presence of the phenolic OH group in the former species, which promotes the binding of the superoxide anion radical to the metal center. The results serve as a basis for designing highly efficient copper(II) mimics for medical and practical applications.

Abstract
Morus nigra L. is a plant popularly known as 'amoreira preta', very used in folk medicine. Iron overload (hemochromatosis) is a clinical condition that causes damage to various tissues due to oxidative stress. Therapy to control iron overload is still unsatisfactory. The protective effect on oxidative stress induced by iron overload was verified. Phytochemical characterization was evaluated by UHPLC-MS/MS. The in silico toxicity predictions of the main phytochemicals were performed via computer simulation. To induce iron overload, the animals received iron dextran (50 mg/kg/day). The test groups received doses of 500 and 1000 mg/kg of M. nigra extract for six weeks. Body weight, organosomatic index, serum iron, hepatic markers, cytokines, interfering factors in iron metabolism, enzymatic and histopathological evaluations were analyzed. Vanillic acid, caffeic acid, 6-hydroxycoumarin, p-coumaric acid, ferulic acid, rutin, quercitrin, resveratrol, apigenin and kaempferol were identified in the extract. In addition, in silico toxic predictions showed that the main compounds presented a low probability of toxic risk. The extract of M. nigra showed to control the mediators of inflammation and to reduce iron overload in several tissues. Our findings illustrate a novel therapeutic action of M. nigra leaves on hemochromatosis caused by iron overload.

Abstract
This study investigated the effect of arginine (Arg) on the antagonistic activity of Metschnikowia citriensis against sour rot caused by Geotrichum citri-aurantii in postharvest citrus, and evaluated the possible mechanism therein. Arg treatment up-regulated the PUL genes expression, and significantly induced the pulcherriminic acid (PA) production of M. citriensis, which related to the capability of iron depletion of M. citriensis. By comparing the biocontrol effects of Arg-treated and untreated yeast cells, it was found that Arg treatment significantly enhanced the biocontrol efficacy of M. citriensis, and 5 mmol L-1 Arg exerted the best effect. Additionally, the biofilm formation ability of M. citriensis was greatly enhanced by Arg, and the higher population density of yeast cells in citrus wounds was also observed in Arg treatment groups stored both at 25 °C and 4 °C. Moreover, Arg was shown to function as a cell protectant to elevate antioxidant enzyme activity [including catalase (CAT), superoxide dismutase (SOD) and glutathione peroxidase (GPX)] and intracellular trehalose content to resist oxidative stress damage, that directly helped to enhance colonization ability of yeasts in fruit wounds. These results suggest the application of Arg is a useful approach to improve the biocontrol performance of M. citriensis.

Abstract
Postmenopausal women express great failure in their ovarian hormone production, especially estrogen. This deficiency may promote hypercholesterolemia and accelerate the redox imbalance. The present study was designed to evaluate the protective effect of Avena sativa against estrogen deficiency-induced liver and uterus oxidative injury in experimental ovariectomized mice. Female mice were randomly divided into five groups: group one (negative control) received normal diet and distilled water (C), group two (positive control) received daily enriched diet with oat grains and was kept on tap distilled water at a dose of 200 mg kg−1 d−1 (A), group three (ovariectomized mice) was nontreated fed with normal diet (O), group four includes ovariectomized mice treated daily with estradiol given by intraperitoneal injection at a dose of 100 μg kg−1 d−1 (OE), and the fifth group also includes ovariectomized mice which received enriched diet with oat grain parts with the same dose given to group two. The treatment period lasted two consecutive months. Both oat and hormonal treatments of ovariectomized groups resulted in a significant reduction in triglycerides and total cholesterol and increased high-density lipoprotein (HDL) levels in the plasma after 21 and 60 days of treatment. Besides, the coadministration of A. sativa has decreased the activities of alkaline phosphatase (ALP) and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) and increased transaminase activities after 21 and 60 days of treatment. On the other hand, this cereal has restored the enzymatic (SOD, CAT, and GPx) and nonenzymatic antioxidant activities (GSH) as well as the elevated thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (AOPP and PCO) to near-normal values. The beneficial effects of this cereal were confirmed by a histological study of the liver and uterus of all previous cited groups. Our finding emphasized the antioxidant and antilipidemic effect of oat grain part, suggesting the use of this cereal in the prevention of liver and uterus diseases that occurred in postmenopausal women.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Intrinsic resistance of cancer cells is a major concern for the success of chemotherapy, and this undesirable feature stimulates further research into the design of new compounds and/or alternative multiple drug chemotherapy protocols. METHODS In this study, we investigated the antitumoral potential of the coordination compounds [Cu(HPClNOL)Cl]Cl (1), [Fe(HPClNOL)Cl2]NO3(2) and [Mn(HPClNOL)Cl2] (3). Using the human, MCF-7 and A549, and the murine melanoma, B16-F10, cell lines, we determined the cytotoxicity, DCFH oxidation, disruption of mitochondrial membrane potential (ΔΨm), Sub-G1 and TUNEL positive cells, and caspase 8 and 9 activities. Fractional inhibitory concentration (FIC) and xenograft models were also assessed to evaluate the efficacy of antitumoral potential. RESULTS We observed that only complex 1 was cytotoxic. The treatment of cancer cells with complex 1 triggered ROS generation and promoted the disruption of ΔΨm. Complex 1 increased the number of Sub-G1 and TUNEL positive cells, and the measurement of caspase 8 and 9 activity confirmed that apoptosis was triggered by the intrinsic pathway. FIC demonstrated that the combination of complex 1 with cisplatin was additive for the A549 cells whilst it was synergic for MCF-7 and B16-F10. Treatment with complex 1, either alone or combined with cisplatin, reduced tumor growth on xenograft models. CONCLUSIONS The present study brings new clues regarding the mechanism of action of [Cu(HPClNOL)Cl]Cl, either alone or in combination with cisplatin. GENERAL SIGNIFICANCE These results indicate that complex 1, administered either singly or in combination with current drugs, has real potential for use in cancer therapy.

Abstract
Over the years, quinones or its derivatives have been extensively studied due to their broad therapeutic spectrum. However, due to the significant structural differences between the individual naturally occurring quinones, investigation of the precise mechanism of their action is essential. In this context, we have analyzed the mechanism of lapachol [4-hydroxy-3-(3-methylbut-2-enyl)naphthalene-1,2-dione] toxicity using Saccharomyces cerevisiae as eukaryotic model organism. Analyzing yeast (wild type, sod1∆, and gsh1∆) cell growth, we observed a strong cytostatic effect caused by lapachol exposure. Moreover, survival of cells was affected by time- and dose-dependent manner. Interestingly, sod1∆ cells were more prone to lapachol toxicity. In this sense, mitochondrial functioning of sod1∆ cells were highly affected by exposure to this quinone. Lapachol also decreased glutathione (GSH) levels in wild type and sod1∆ cells even though glutathione disulfide (GSSG) remained unchanged. We believe that reduction of GSH contents has contributed to the enhancement of lipid peroxidation and intracellular oxidation, effect much more pronounced in sod1∆ cells. Overall, the collected data suggest that although lapachol can act as an oxidant, it seems that the main mechanism of its action initially consists in alkylation of intracellular targets such as GSH and then generating oxidative stress.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to investigate the in vitro effect of an antifungal fraction obtained from Jacquinia macrocarpa plant (JmAF) in the generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and the activity of the catalase (CAT) and superoxide dismutase (SOD) enzymes from Fusarium verticillioides, as well as their influence in the viability of the fungus spores. The compounds present in the JmAF were determined by gas chromatography/quadrupole time-of-flight mass spectrometry (GC/QTOF-MS). The effect of the exposition to JmAF on the generation of ROS, as well as in the CAT and SOD activities in F. verticillioides, was determined. The main compounds detected were γ-sitosterol, stephamiersine, betulinol and oleic acid. JmAF showed very high ability in inhibiting the spore viability of F. verticillioides, and their capacity to cause oxidative stress by induction of ROS production. JmAF induced the highest ROS concentration and also inhibited CAT and SOD activities. The results obtained in this study indicate that JmAF is worthy of being considered for the fight against phytopathogenic fungi.

Abstract
Heavy metal pollution in Antarctic is serious by anthropogenic emissions and atmospheric transport. To dissect the heavy metal adaptation mechanisms of sea-ice organisms, a basidiomycetous yeast strain AN5 was isolated and its cellular changes were analyzed. Morphological, physiological, and biochemical characterization indicated that this yeast strain belonged to Rhodotorula mucilaginosa AN5. Heavy metal resistance pattern of Cd > Pb = Mn > Cu > Cr > Hg was observed. Scanning electron microscopic (SEM) results exhibited altered cell surface morphology under the influence of copper metal compared to that with control. The determination of physiological and biochemical changes manifested that progressive copper treatment significantly increased antioxidative reagents content and enzymes activity in the red yeast, which quench the active oxygen species to maintain the intercellular balance of redox state and ensure the cellular fission and growth. Comparative proteomic analysis revealed that, under 2 mM copper stress, 95 protein spots were tested reproducible changes of at least 10-fold in cells. Among 95 protein spots, 43 were elevated and 52 were decreased synthesis. After MALDI TOF MS/MS analysis, 51 differentially expressed proteins were identified successfully and classified into six functional groups, including carbohydrate and energy metabolism, nucleotide and protein metabolism, protein folding, antioxidant system, signaling, and unknown function proteins. Function analysis indicated that carbohydrate and energy metabolism-, nucleotide and protein metabolism-, and protein folding-related proteins played central role to the heavy metal resistance of Antarctic yeast. Generally, the results revealed that the yeast has a great capability to cope with heavy metal stress and activate the physiological and protein mechanisms, which allow more efficient recovery after copper stress. Our studies increase understanding of the molecular resistance mechanism of polar yeast to heavy metal, which will be benefitted for the sea-ice isolates to be a potential candidate for bioremediation of metal-contaminated environments.

Abstract
Lignocellulosic biomass has been widely studied as the renewable feedstock for the production of biofuels and biochemicals. Budding yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae is commonly used as a cell factory for bioconversion of lignocellulosic biomass. However, economic bioproduction using fermentable sugars released from lignocellulosic feedstocks is still challenging. Due to impaired cell viability and fermentation performance by various inhibitors that are present in the cellulosic hydrolysates, robust yeast strains resistant to various stress environments are highly desired. Here, we summarize recent progress on yeast strain development for the production of biofuels and biochemical using lignocellulosic biomass. Genome-wide studies which have contributed to the elucidation of mechanisms of yeast stress tolerance are reviewed. Key gene targets recently identified based on multiomics analysis such as transcriptomic, proteomic, and metabolomics studies are summarized. Physiological genomic studies based on zinc sulfate supplementation are highlighted, and novel zinc-responsive genes involved in yeast stress tolerance are focused. The dependence of host genetic background of yeast stress tolerance and roles of histones and their modifications are emphasized. The development of robust yeast strains based on multiomics analysis benefits economic bioconversion of lignocellulosic biomass.

Abstract
The synthesis, X-ray molecular structure, physico-chemical characterization and dual antioxidant activity (catalase and superoxide dismutase) of a new polymeric mixed valence Mn(III)Mn(II) complex, containing the ligand H2BPClNOL (N-(2-hydroxybenzyl)-N-(2-pyridylmethyl)[(3-chloro)(2-hydroxy)] propylamine) is described. The monomeric unit is composed of a dinuclear Mn(II)Mn(III) moiety, [Mn(III)(μ-HBPClNOL)(μ-BPClNOL)Mn(II)(Cl)](ClO4)·2H2O, 1, in which the Mn ions are connected by two different bridging groups provided by two molecules of the ligand H2BPClNOL, a phenoxide and an alkoxide group. In the solid state, this mixed valence dinuclear unit is connected to its neighbors through chloro bridges. Magnetic measurements indicated the presence of ferromagnetic [J = +0.076(13) cm−1] and antiferromagnetic [J = −5.224(13) cm−1] interactions. The compound promotes O2•- dismutation in aqueous solution (IC50 = 0.370 μmol dm−3, kcat = 3.6x106 M−1 s−1). EPR studies revealed that a high-valent Mn(III)-O-Mn(IV) species is involved in the superoxide dismutation catalytic cycle. Complex 1 shows catalase activity only in the presence of a base, e.g., piperazine or triethylamine. Kinetic studies were carried out in the presence of piperazine and employing two different methods, resulting in kcat values of 0.58 ± 0.03 s−1 (detection of O2 production employing a Clark electrode) and 2.59 ± 0.12 s−1 (H2O2 consuption recorded via UV-Vis). EPR and ESI-(+)-MS studies indicate that piperazine induces the oxidation of 1, resulting in the formation of the catalytically active Mn(III)-O-Mn(IV) species.

Abstract
Structural analysis of (acetato-κ2O,O')(methanol-κO)[tris-(pyridin-2-ylmeth-yl)amine-κ4N,N',N'',N''']manganese(II) tetraphenyl-borate, [Mn(C2H3O2)(C18H18N4)(CH3OH)](C24H20B) or [Mn(TMPA)(Ac)(CH3OH)]BPh4 [TMPA = tris-(pyridin-2-ylmeth-yl)amine, Ac = acetate, BPh4 = tetra-phenyl-borate] by single-crystal X-ray diffraction reveals a complex cation with tetra-dentate coordination of the tripodal TMPA ligand, bidentate coordination of the Ac ligand and monodentate coordination of the methanol ligand to a single MnII center, balanced in charge by the presence of a tetra-phenyl-borate anion. The MnII complex has a distorted penta-gonal-bipyramidal geometry, in which the central amine nitro-gen and two pyridyl N atoms of the TMPA ligand, and two oxygen atoms of the acetate ligand occupy positions in the penta-gonal plane, while the third pyridyl nitro-gen of TMPA and the oxygen from the methanol ligand occupy the axial positions. Within the complex, the acetate O atoms participate in weak C-H⋯O hydrogen-bonding inter-actions with neighboring pyridyl moieties. In the crystal, complexes form dimers by pairs of O-H⋯O hydrogen bonds between the coordinated methanol of one complex and an acetate oxygen of the other, and weak π-stacking inter-actions between pyridine rings. Separate dimers then undergo additional π-stacking inter-actions between the pyridine rings of one moiety and either the pyridine or phenyl rings of another moiety that further stabilize the crystal.

Abstract
BACKGROUND CONTEXT A reliable experimental rabbit model of distraction spinal cord injury (SCI) was established to successfully simulate gradable and replicable distraction SCI. However, further research is needed to elucidate the pathologic mechanisms underlying distraction SCI. PURPOSE The aim of this study was to investigate the pathologic mechanisms underlying lumbar distraction SCI in rabbits. STUDY DESIGN This is an animal laboratory study. METHODS Using a self-designed spine distractor, the experimental animals were divided into a control group and 10%, 20%, and 30% distraction groups. Pathologic changes to the spinal cord microvessels in the early stage of distraction SCI were identified by perfusion of the spinal cord vasculature with ink, production of transparent specimens, observation by light microscopy, and observation of corrosion casts of the spinal cord microvascular architecture by scanning electron microscopy. Malondialdehyde (MDA) and superoxide dismutase (SOD) concentrations in the injured spinal cord tissue were measured after 8 hours. RESULTS With an increasing degree and duration of distraction, the spinal cord microvessels were only partially filled and had the appearance of spasm until rupture and hemorrhage were observed. The MDA concentration increased and the SOD concentration decreased in the spinal cord tissue. CONCLUSIONS Changes to the internal and external spinal cord vessels led to spinal cord ischemia, which is a primary pathologic mechanism of distraction SCI. Lipid peroxidation mediated by free radicals took part in secondary pathologic damage of distraction SCI.

Abstract
Viable biomass production is a key determinant of suitability of antagonistic yeasts as potential biocontrol agents. This study investigated the effects of three metal ions (magnesium, ferrous, and zinc) on biomass production and viability of the antagonistic yeast, Candida diversa. Using response surface methodology to optimize medium components, a maximum biomass was obtained, when the collective Mg2+, Fe2+, and Zn2+ concentrations were adjusted in a minimal mineral (MM) medium. Compared with the unmodified MM, and three ion-deficient MM media, yeast cells cultured in the three ion-modified MM medium exhibited a lower level of cellular oxidative damage, and a higher level of antioxidant enzyme activity. A biocontrol assay indicated that C. diversa grown in the ion-modified MM exhibited the greatest level of control of gray mold on apple fruit. These results provide new information on culture medium optimization to grow yeast antagonists in order to improve biomass production and biocontrol efficacy.

Abstract
Alzheimer's disease is still incurable and neurodegenerative, and there is a lack of detection methods with high sensitivity and specificity. In this study, by taking different month old Alzheimer's mice as models, we have explored the possibility of the target bioimaging of diseased sites through the initial injection of zinc gluconate solution into Alzheimer's model mice post-tail vein and then the combination of another injection of ferrous chloride (FeCl2) solution into the same Alzheimer's model mice post-stomach. Our observations indicate that both zinc gluconate solution and FeCl2 solution could cross the blood-brain barrier (BBB) to biosynthesize the fluorescent zinc oxide nanoclusters and magnetic iron oxide nanoclusters, respectively, in the lesion areas of the AD model mice, thus enabling high spatiotemporal dual-modality bioimaging (i.e., including fluorescence bioimaging (FL) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)) of Alzheimer's disease for the first time. The result presents a novel promising strategy for the rapid and early diagnosis of Alzheimer's disease.

Abstract
The objective of this study was to evaluate markers of oxidative stress in the brains of rats exposed to lead acetate (Pb(C2 H3 O2 )2 ), either associated or not associated with ferrous sulfate (FeSO4 ). A total of 36 weaning rats (Rattus norvegicus) were divided into 6 groups of six animals and exposed to lead acetate for six weeks. In the control group (control), the animals received deionized water. The Pb260 and Pb260 + Fe received 260 µM lead acetate, and the Pb1050 and Pb1050 + Fe received 1050 µM lead acetate. The Pb260 + Fe and Pb1050 + Fe were supplemented with 20 mg of ferrous sulfate/Kg body weight every 2 days. Group Fe received deionized water and ferrous sulfate. The rat brains were collected to analyze the enzymatic activity of catalase (CAT), superoxide dismutase (SOD), glutathione peroxidase (GPx), and the concentration of reduced glutathione (GSH), lipid peroxidation (TBARS), and total antioxidant substance (TAS) (DPPH• technique). The activity of SOD and GPx in the experimental groups decreased compared to the control, together with the concentration of GSH (p < 0.05). For CAT analysis, SOD tended to increase in concentration in the experimental groups without a concomitant exposure to FeSO4 , whereas GPx showed a slight tendency to increase in activity compared to the control. For TAS-DPPH• , there was a decrease in the experimental groups (p < 0.05). According to the results, SOD, GPx, and GSH were affected by lead acetate and exposure to ferrous sulfate changed this dynamic. However, further studies are needed to verify whether ferrous sulfate acts as a protectant against the toxic effects of lead. © 2016 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. Environ Toxicol 32: 813-822, 2017.

Abstract
Aging is a natural process characterized by several biological changes. In this context, oxidative stress appears as a key factor that leads cells and organisms to severe dysfunctions and diseases. To cope with reactive oxygen species and oxidative-related damage, there has been increased use of superoxide dismutase (SOD)/catalase (CAT) biomimetic compounds. Recently, we have shown that three metal-based compounds {[Fe(HPClNOL)Cl2]NO3, [Cu(HPClNOL)(CH3CN)](ClO4)2 and Mn(HPClNOL)(Cl)2}, harboring in vitro SOD and/or CAT activities, were critical for protection of yeast cells against oxidative stress. In this work, treating Saccharomyces cerevisiae with these SOD/CAT mimics (25.0 µM/1 h), we highlight the pivotal role of these compounds to extend the life span of yeast during chronological aging. Evaluating lipid and protein oxidation of aged cells, it becomes evident that these mimics extend the life expectancy of yeast mainly due to the reduction in oxidative stress biomarkers. In addition, the treatment of yeast cells with these mimics regulated the amounts of lipid droplet occurrence, consistent with the requirement and protection of lipids for cell integrity during aging. Concerning SOD/CAT mimics uptake, using inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry, we add new evidence that these complexes, besides being bioabsorbed by S. cerevisiae cells, can also affect metal homeostasis. Finally, our work presents a new application for these SOD/CAT mimics, which demonstrate a great potential to be employed as antiaging agents. Taken together, these promising results prompt future studies concerning the relevance of administration of these molecules against the emerging aging-related diseases such as Parkinson's, Alzheimer's and Huntington's.

Abstract
In this study, the degradation of ciprofloxacin (CIP) was explored using ultraviolet activated persulfate (UV/PS) with 280 nm ultraviolet light-emitting diodes (UV-LEDs), and the toxicological assessment of degrading intermediates was performed using iTRAQ labeling quantitative proteomic technology. The quantitative mass spectrum results showed that 280 nm UV/PS treatment had a high transformation efficiency of CIP ([CIP] = 3 μM, [S2O82-] = 210 μM, apparent rate constants 0.2413 min-1). The high resolution mass spectrum analyses demonstrated that the primary intermediates included C15H16FN3O3 (m/z 306.1248) and C17H18FN3O4 (m/z 348.1354). The former one was formed by the cleavage of piperazine ring, while the later one was generated by the addition of a hydroxyl on the quinolone backbone. The toxicological assessment demonstrated that 56 and 110 proteins had significant up regulations and down regulations, respectively, in the Escherichia coli exposed to degraded CIP compared to untreated CIP. The majority of up-regulated proteins, such as GapA, SodC, were associated with primary metabolic process rather than responses to stress and toxic substance, inferring that the moderate UV/PS treatment can reduce the antibacterial activity of CIP by incomplete mineralization. Consequently, these results provided a novel insight into the application of UV-LED/PS treatment as a promising removal methodology for quinolones.

Abstract
Two mononuclear MnIII complexes [Mn(3,5-F2salpn)(H2O)2][B(C6H5)4]·2H2O (1·2H2O) and [Mn(3,5-Cl2salpn)(OAc)(H2O)]·H2O (2·H2O), where H2salpn=1,3-bis(salicylidenamino)propane, have been prepared and characterized. The crystal structure of 1·H2O shows that this complex forms μ-aqua dimers with a short Mn⋯Mn distance of 4.93Å. Under anaerobic conditions, the two complexes are stable in solution and possess trans-diaxial symmetry with the tetradentate Schiff base ligand symmetrically arranged in the equatorial plane. When left in air, these complexes slowly dimerize to yield high-valent [MnIV2(3,5-X2-salpn)2(μ-O)2] in which each X2-salpn ligand wraps the two Mn ions. This process is favored in basic medium where the deprotonation of the bound water molecule is concomitant with air oxidation. The two complexes catalyze the dismutation of superoxide (superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity) and peroxide (catalase (CAT) activity) in basic medium. The phenyl-ring substituents play an important role on the CAT reaction but have little effect on SOD activity. Kinetics and spectroscopic results indicate that 1 and 2 catalyze H2O2 disproportionation through a cycle involving MnIII2 and MnIV2 dimers, unlike related complexes with a more rigid and smaller chelate ring, which employ MnIII/MnVO monomers.
