Abstract
D-ribose, an ubiquitous pentose compound found in all living cells, serves as a vital constituent of numerous essential biomolecules, including RNA, nucleotides, and riboflavin. It plays a crucial role in various fundamental life processes. Within the cellular milieu, exogenously supplied D-ribose can undergo phosphorylation to yield ribose-5-phosphate (R-5-P). This R-5-P compound serves a dual purpose: it not only contributes to adenosine triphosphate (ATP) production through the nonoxidative phase of the pentose phosphate pathway (PPP) but also participates in nucleotide synthesis. Consequently, D-ribose is employed both as a therapeutic agent for enhancing cardiac function in heart failure patients and as a remedy for post-exercise fatigue. Nevertheless, recent clinical studies have suggested a potential link between D-ribose metabolic disturbances and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) along with its associated complications. Additionally, certain in vitro experiments have indicated that exogenous D-ribose exposure could trigger apoptosis in specific cell lines. This article comprehensively reviews the current advancements in D-ribose's digestion, absorption, transmembrane transport, intracellular metabolic pathways, impact on cellular behaviour, and elevated levels in diabetes mellitus. It also identifies areas requiring further investigation.

Nanoplastics induce more severe multigenerational life-history trait changes and metabolic responses in marine rotifer Brachionus plicatilis: Comparison with microplastics. JOURNAL OF HAZARDOUS MATERIALS 2023; 449:131070. [PMID: 36840989 DOI: 10.1016/j.jhazmat.2023.131070] [Citation(s) in RCA: 13] [Impact Index Per Article: 13.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/01/2022] [Revised: 01/13/2023] [Accepted: 02/21/2023] [Indexed: 06/18/2023]
Abstract
Micro/nanoplastics (MPs/NPs) have attracted global attention for their potential adverse impacts on marine ecosystems. This study investigated the impacts of MPs/NPs (70 nm, 500 nm, and 2 µm) on population growth and life-history traits of marine rotifer (Brachionus plicatilis), and further explored the differences from the aspects of nutrient accumulation and metabolomic profiles. The results showed that 200 and 2000 µg/L 70 nm NPs significantly suppressed population growth, and negatively affected life span, the first spawning and breeding time, and fecundity in F0-F2 generation rotifers. Whereas 500 nm NPs and 2 µm MPs showed no effect on population growth 200 µg/L and only changed the life-history traits at the highest concentration. Moreover, 70 nm NPs were more easily accumulated in the rotifers and reduced food ingestion and nutrient accumulation, which caused more severe disruption on purine-pyrimidine metabolism, tricarboxylic acid cycle, and protein synthesis pathway compared to 500 nm NPs. Thus, the smaller the size of the plastic particles, the stronger the toxicity to the rotifers. This study provided new insights into the toxicity of MPs/NPs on marine zooplankton and proposed that metabolomics was powerful to explore the toxicity mechanisms of MPs/NPs.

Abstract
Formaldehyde (FA) is a highly reactive substance that is ubiquitous in the environment and is usually considered as a pollutant. In the human body, FA is a product of various metabolic pathways and participates in one-carbon cycle, which provides carbon for the synthesis and modification of bio-compounds, such as DNA, RNA, and amino acids. Endogenous FA plays a role in epigenetic regulation, especially in the methylation and demethylation of DNA, histones, and RNA. Recently, epigenetic alterations associated with FA dysmetabolism have been considered as one of the important features in age-related cognitive impairment (ARCI), suggesting the potential of using FA as a diagnostic biomarker of ARCI. Notably, FA plays multifaceted roles, and, at certain concentrations, it promotes cell proliferation, enhances memory formation, and elongates life span, effects that could also be involved in the aetiology of ARCI. Further investigation of and the regulation of the epigenetics landscape may provide new insights about the aetiology of ARCI and provide novel therapeutic targets.

Abstract
Microplastics (MPs) are a hazardous pollutant of world concern that threaten aquatic organisms and ecosystems. In this study, we chose the worldwide-distributed shrimp Litopenaeus vannamei as a model and investigated the toxicological effects of five types of MPs on L. vannamei using several omics approaches. After 14 days of exposure to MPs, obvious intestinal microbiota variation was observed, such as increased abundances of Bacteroidetes and Proteobacteria and a decreased abundance of Firmicutes. Specifically, MPs induced several putative opportunistic pathogens and reduced lactic acid- and short-chain fatty acid-producing bacteria. Alternatively, MPs altered haemolymph proteome profiles, but the five types of MPs had different effects on the enriched pathways and the expression of immune-related proteins. Furthermore, MPs also caused haemolymph metabolite variation, especially in amino acid and alpha-linolenic acid metabolism, and 28 differential metabolites were altered in the five MP-treated groups. Changes in intestinal bacteria were correlated with the haemolymph proteins and metabolites of the shrimp. Overall, these results reveal the toxicological effects of MPs on the intestinal microbiota and the host's immunity and metabolism in shrimp.

Abstract
The quality of life of patients with certain diseases may be improved through the development of technologies and advancements in pharmacology, with the aim of prolonging their life. However, congestive heart failure (CHF), as well their complications, continue to be the leading cause of disease-associated death. The mechanisms underlying the development and progression of diabetes and CHF have been uncovered in a stepwise manner and the understanding of these mechanisms has improved the management of these diseases, resulting in reduced mortality and morbidity rates; however, CHF remains the leading cause of death worldwide, particularly in developed countries. In the past decades, research has indicated that several supplements and naturally occurring compounds may be used to treat muscle weakness, for cardiac failure management, rehabilitation following myocardial ischemia-reperfusion and various complications of diabetes. D-ribose is an essential component of the respiratory, skeletal and nervous systems and is a popular compound, as its supplementation may have beneficial effects. In the present review, the physiological roles, toxic reactions and the potential use of D-ribose in the management of clinical diseases are summarized.

Abstract
Advanced glycation end products (AGEs) have been implicated in the disease process of diabetes mellitus. They have also been found in senile plaques and neurofibrillary tangles in the brains of Alzheimer's disease patients. Furthermore, abnormally high levels of D-ribose and D-glucose were found in the urine of patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus, suggesting that diabetic patients suffer from dysmetabolism of not only D-glucose but also D-ribose. In the present study, intravenous tail injections of ribosylated rat serum albumin (RRSA) were found to impair memory in rats, but they did not markedly impair learning, as measured by the Morris water maze test. Injections of RRSA were found to trigger tau hyperphosphorylation in the rat hippocampus via GSK-3β activation. Tau hyperphosphorylation and GSK-3β activation were also observed in N2a cells in the presence of ribosylation-derived AGEs. Furthermore, the administration of ribosylation-derived AGEs induced the suppression of brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) and tropomyosin-related kinase B (TrkB). Both GSK-3β inhibition and BDNF treatment decreased the levels of phosphorylated tau in N2a cells. In particular, the administration of BDNF could rescue memory failure in ribosylated AGE-injected rats. Ribosylation-derived AGEs downregulated the BDNF-TrkB pathway in rat brains and N2a cells, leading to GSK-3β activation-mediated tau hyperphosphorylation, which was involved in the observed rat memory loss. Targeting ribosylation may be a promising therapeutic strategy to prevent Alzheimer's disease and diabetic encephalopathies.

Abstract
It is estimated that the global prevalence of dementia will rise as high as 24 million and predicted to be double in every 20 years which is attributed to the fact that the ageing population is increasing and so more individuals are at risk of developing neurodegenerative diseases like Alzheimer's. Many scientists favored glycation of proteins such as tau, amyloid beta (Aβ) etc. as one of the important risk factor in Alzheimer's disease (AD). Since, D-ribose shows highest glycation ability among other sugars hence, produces advanced glycation end products (AGEs) rapidly. However, there are several other mechanisms suggested by researchers through which D-ribose may cause cognitive impairments. There is a concern related to diabetic patients since they also suffer from D-ribose metabolism, may be more prone to AD risk. Thus, it is imperative that the pathogenesis and the pathways involved in AD progression are explored in the light of ribosylation and AGEs formation for identifying suitable diagnostics marker for early diagnosis or finding promising therapeutic outcomes.

Abstract
Although many mechanisms have been proposed for diabetic encephalopathy in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), the risk factors for cognitive impairment in type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) are less clear. Here, we show that streptozotocin (STZ)-induced T1DM rats showed cognitive impairment in both Y maze and Morris water maze assays, accompanied with D-ribose was significantly increased in blood and urine, in addition to D-glucose. Furthermore, advanced glycation end products (AGE), Tau hyperphosphorylation and neuronal death in the hippocampal CA4/DG region were detected in T1DM rats. The expression and activity of transketolase (TKT), an important enzyme in the pentose shunt, were decreased in the brain, indicating that TKT may be involved in D-ribose metabolism in T1DM. Support for these change was demonstrated by the activation of TKT with benfotiamine (BTMP) treatment. Decreased D-ribose levels but not D-glucose levels; markedly reduced AGE accumulation, Tau hyperphosphorylation, and neuronal death; and improved cognitive ability in T1DM rats were shown after BTMP administration. In clinical investigation, T1DM patients had high D-ribose levels in both urine and serum. Our work suggests that D-ribose is involved in the cognitive impairment in T1DM and may provide a potentially novel target for treating diabetic encephalopathy.

Abstract
The present study was sought to evaluate the oxidative, antioxidant status and histopathological changes by the acute chronic exposure of formaldehyde. Bronco-T a poly-herbal formulation treatment, changes the oxidative, antioxidant status and histopathology of rat lungs with antioxidant and regenerative property. In this experiment thirty adult male albino Wister rats were used for the study and subdivided in to five groups consist of 6 rats for each group. Group-I served as control and the other 4 groups such as II, III, IV and V are considered as experimental. The control and treatment rats are maintained for 21 days of experimental period. Experimental rats are exposed to 40 percent formaldehyde for 1 h treated with Bronco-T and salbutamol. In the present investigation, the formaldehyde exposed rats a series of free radical chain reactions were grimly provoked, the evaluation of antioxidant enzymes (SOD, CAT), other enzymes oxidative enzymes (G-6-PDH, SDH) and (ALT, ALAT and LDH) were measured. A clear assertive imbalance between oxidation and anti-oxidation status was critically observed, and oxidative stress was clearly exacerbated in lung tissue leading to altrations in architecture of lung histopathology. Oral gavage Bronco-T exhibits a beneficial action by bringing normal architecture in lung tissue of formaldehyde inhaled rats with antioxidant properties. Bronco-T treatment may be a suitable remedy for formalin occupational diseases.
