Fermented Oyster Extract Attenuated Dexamethasone-Induced Muscle Atrophy by Decreasing Oxidative Stress

It is well known that oxidative stress induces muscle atrophy, which decreases with the activation of Nrf2/HO-1. Fermented oyster extracts (FO), rich in γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA) and lactate, have shown antioxidative effects. We evaluated whether FO decreased oxidative stress by upregulating Nrf2/HO-1 and whether it decreased NF-κB, leading to decreased IL-6 and TNF-α. Decreased oxidative stress led to the downregulation of Cbl-b ubiquitin ligase, which increased IGF-1 and decreased FoxO3, atrogin1, and Murf1, and eventually decreased muscle atrophy in dexamethasone (Dexa)-induced muscle atrophy animal model. For four weeks, mice were orally administered with FO, GABA, lactate, or GABA+Lactate, and then Dexa was subcutaneously injected for ten days. During Dexa injection period, FO, GABA, lactate, or GABA+Lactate were also administered, and grip strength test and muscle harvesting were performed on the day of the last Dexa injection. We compared the attenuation effect of FO with GABA, lactate, and GABA+lactate treatment. Nrf2 and HO-1 expressions were increased by Dexa but decreased by FO; SOD activity and glutathione levels were decreased by Dexa but increased by FO; NADPH oxidase activity was increased by Dexa but decreased by FO; NF-κB, IL-6, and TNF-α activities were increased by Dexa were decreased by FO; Cbl-b expression was increased by Dexa but restored by FO; IGF-1 expression was decreased by Dexa but increased by FO; FoxO3, Atrogin-1, and MuRF1 expressions were increased by Dexa but decreased by FO. The gastrocnemius thickness and weight were decreased by Dexa but increased by FO. The cross-sectional area of muscle fiber and grip strength were decreased by Dexa but increased by FO. In conclusion, FO decreased Dexa-induced oxidative stress through the upregulation of Nrf2/HO-1. Decreased oxidative stress led to decreased Cbl-b, FoxO3, atrogin1, and MuRF1, which attenuated muscle atrophy.

Problems encountered with the routine application of HPLC to the analysis of carbamate pesticides

Summary This paper describes the determination of all carbamate pesticides mentioned in the Austrian regulations for pesticides and of some other carbamates commonly used in the EEC. Clean-up procedure is carried out by ethyl acetate extraction. Purification is by a liquid-liquid extraction step followed by use of a florisil column. Final detection of the carbamates is carried out by HPLC on silica gel and GLC respectively The method works well for all carbamates under consideration. Only benzimidazolamine-2, the decomposition product of benomyl and carbendazime cannot be determined by the method described. Therefore determination of benomyl, carbendazime and benzimidazolamine-2 was by hydrolysis of benomyl and carbendazime to benzimidazolamine-2, which is then determined by reversed-phase chromatography.

New designer drug 2,5-dimethoxy-4-ethylthio-beta-phenethylamine (2C-T-2): studies on its metabolism and toxicological detection in rat urine using gas chromatography/mass spectrometry

Studies are described on the metabolism and the toxicological analysis of the phenethylamine-derived designer drug 2,5-dimethoxy-4-ethylthio-beta-phenethylamine (2C-T-2) in rat urine using gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (GC/MS) after enzymatic cleavage of conjugates, liquid-liquid extraction and derivatization. The structures of 14 metabolites were assigned tentatively by detailed interpretation of their mass spectra. Identification of these metabolites indicated that 2C-T-2 was metabolized by sulfoxidation followed by N-acetylation and either hydroxylation of the S-ethyl side chain or demethylation of one methoxy group, O-demethylation of the parent compound followed by N-acetylation and sulfoxidation, deamination followed by reduction to the corresponding alcohol followed by partial glucuronidation and/or sulfation or by oxidation to the corresponding acid followed either by partial glucuronidation or by degradation to the corresponding benzoic acid derivative followed by partial glucuronidation. Furthermore, 2C-T-2 was metabolized by N-acetylation of the parent compound followed either by O-demethylation and sulfoxidation or by S-dealkylation, S-methylation and sulfoxidation. The authors' systematic toxicological analysis (STA) procedure using full-scan GC/MS after acid hydrolysis, liquid-liquid extraction microwave-assisted acetylation allowed the detection of an intake of a dose of 2C-T-2 in rat urine, which corresponds to a common drug users' dose. Assuming similar metabolism, the described STA procedure should be suitable for proof of an intake of 2C-T-2 in human urine.

Luminescent,optical, magnetic and metamaterial behavior of cerium complexes

The complexes of cerium with nitrogen, oxygen and sulfur donor ligands were prepared by conventional method. These newly synthesized complexes were characterized by FTIR, UV–Vis, DART Mass, TGA, PXRD, SEM and TEM techniques. The magnetic studies were carried out by the vibrating sample magnetometer.
