Cardiac surgery-related acute kidney injury (CS-AKI) is a decrease in kidney function after open-heart surgery, affecting up to 50% of patients. The pathophysiology of CS-AKI involves ischemia–reperfusion injury, inflammation, and oxidative str...

With global climate warming, enhancing the heat stress tolerance of rice seeds is critical for ensuring crop yields and maintaining global food security. 2,4-Epibrassionolide (EBR) has been shown to effectively alleviate the adverse effects of heat s...

In traditional Chinese medicine, the root bark and leaves of Schima argentea are utilized to treat dysentery, parasitic infections, and digestive disorders. In this study, the n-butanol extract of S. argentea (NBA) exhibited potent antioxidant proper...

This study examines the relationship between obesity, oxidative stress, and reproductive dysfunction. It focuses on the effects of sleeve gastrectomy on gene expression and hormone profiles in 29 women with severe obesity (BMI ≥ 40 kg/m2). Pre- an...

Glutathione S-transferases (GSTs) play crucial roles in crop stress tolerance through protection against oxidative damage. In this study, we conducted genome-wide identification and expression analysis of the GST gene family in the autotetraploid pot...

This review explores the antidepressant effects of ginsenoside Rb1, a natural compound in traditional Chinese medicine, and its potential for treating major depressive disorder (MDD). The aetiology of depression was reviewed up to 2024, focusing on t...

Olive oil is widely recognized for its cancer-prevention properties, and its by-products, such as pomace and leaves, offer an opportunity for compound extraction. This study comprehensively reviews the antitumor activities of olive extracts and compo...

Hypoxic damage to retinal pigment epithelial (RPE) cells and subsequent neovascularization are key factors in the pathogenesis of branch retinal vein occlusion (BRVO). Naringin (NG), a naturally occurring flavanone glycoside, has demonstrated signifi...

Hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) plays a crucial role in cell signaling in response to physiological and environmental perturbations. H2O2 can oxidize typical 2-Cys peroxiredoxin (PRX) first into a sulfenic acid, which resolves into a disulfide that can be r...

Grafting is a horticultural technique that involves a healing process that requires grafted plants to develop physiological responses to overcome oxidative stress. In this study, oxidative damage, total antioxidant capacity and antioxidant enzymatic...
