Protective Effect of Cyclically Pressurized Solid⁻Liquid Extraction Polyphenols from Grape Pomace on Oxidative Endothelial Cell Death.
(
MDPI
, 2018 , Article)
The aim of this work is the evaluation of a green extraction technology to exploit winery waste byproducts. Specifically, a solid⁻liquid extraction technology (Naviglio Extractor) was used to obtain polyphenolic antioxidants ...
Organ-specific toxicity evaluation of stearamidopropyl dimethylamine (SAPDMA) surfactant using zebrafish embryos
(
Elsevier
, 2020 , Article)
Surfactants are widely used in the industry of detergents, household products, and cosmetics. SAPDMA is a cationic surfactant that is used mostly in cosmetics, conditioning agents and has recently gained attention as a ...
Impaired Liver Size and Compromised Neurobehavioral Activity are Elicited by Chitosan Nanoparticles in the Zebrafish Embryo Model
(
MDPI
, 2019 , Article)
The use of chitosan nanoparticles (ChNPs) in various biological and environmental
applications is attracting great interest. However, potential side effects related to ChNP toxicity
remain the major limitation hampering ...
Resveratrol-Elicited PKC Inhibition Counteracts NOX-Mediated Endothelial to Mesenchymal Transition in Human Retinal Endothelial Cells Exposed to High Glucose
(
MDPI
, 2021 , Article)
Diabetes-associated long-term hyperglycaemia leads to oxidative stress-mediated fibrosis in different tissues and organs. Endothelial-to-mesenchymal-transition (EndMT) appears to play a role in diabetes-associated fibrotic ...
Ecotoxicological Assessment of Thermally- and Hydrogen-Reduced Graphene Oxide/TiO₂ Photocatalytic Nanocomposites Using the Zebrafish Embryo Model.
(
MDPI
, 2019 , Article)
Advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) have recently attracted great interest in water pollution management. Using the zebrafish embryo model, we investigated the environmental impacts of two thermally (RGOTi)- and hydrogen ...
Flavin Oxidase-Induced ROS Generation Modulates PKC Biphasic Effect of Resveratrol on Endothelial Cell Survival.
(
MDPI
, 2019 , Article)
Dietary intake of natural antioxidants is thought to impart protection against oxidative-associated cardiovascular diseases. Despite many in vivo studies and clinical trials, this issue has not been conclusively resolved. ...
AEO-7 surfactant is “super toxic” and induces severe cardiac, liver and locomotion damage in zebrafish embryos
(
SpringerOpen
, 2020 , Article)
© 2020, The Author(s). Background: Fatty alcohol polyoxyethylene ether-7 (AEO-7), a non-ionic surfactant, has recently been receiving extensive attention from the ocean pipeline industry for its ability to inhibit corrosion. ...
Herbal Medicine for Cardiovascular Diseases: Efficacy, Mechanisms, and Safety
(
Frontiers Media S.A.
, 2020 , Article)
Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) are a significant health burden with an ever-increasing
prevalence. They remain the leading causes of morbidity and mortality worldwide. The use
of medicinal herbs continues to be an ...
JC-10 probe as a novel method for analyzing the mitochondrial membrane potential and cell stress in whole zebrafish embryos
(
Oxford University Press
, 2021 , Article)
Background: A sensitive method to investigate cellular stress and cytotoxicity is based on measuring mitochondrial membrane potential. Recently, JC-10, was developed to measure mitochondrial membrane potential in vitro and ...
Toxicity evaluation of selected ionic liquid compounds on embryonic development of Zebrafish.
(
Elsevier
, 2018 , Article)
Hydrate formation in seafloor pipelines is considered an economic and flow assurance issue for the oil and gas industries. Ionic liquids (ILs) have been recently used as potential hydrate inhibitors. Although branded as ...
