Noise pollution is recognized as an environmental stressor that affects various biological processes beyond auditory functions, mainly through stress hormones release. This work explored the processes, diseases attributable to noise-regulated targets, and main targets involved in each disease, employing a network toxicology approach. Through databases bioinformatics analysis, total of 577 were identified potential candidates implicated related noise exposure, 10 from GEO database rest other...
H. brasiletto is used in popular culture due to its therapeutic properties, including antioxidant, anti-inflammatory and antiproliferative although little known about role as a protector against metal toxicity. This study aimed investigate the chemical composition efficacy of hydroalcoholic extract from (HAE-Hbrasiletto) collected northern Colombia defend cadmium (Cd)-induced toxicity.Phytochemical characterization was performed using HPLC-ESI-QTOF. Caenorhabditis elegans employed assess...
Fridericia chica (Bignoniaceae) is a traditional medicinal plant. The aim of this research was to determine the protective effects hydroethanolic extract from F. leaves (HEFc) against cytotoxicity zearalenone (α-ZEL) and β-ZEL on SH-SY5Y cells. Free radical scavenging activity HEFc evaluated using DPPH method. both metabolites examined MTT test, as cytoprotective cells treated with these mycotoxins. chemical composition determined UPLC-QTOF-MS/MS. elicited good following...
Carnosol is a natural diterpene present in Rosmarinus officinalis L. (rosemary) with anti-tumor and anti-inflammatory properties. Despite its importance, the pharmacological mechanisms underlying interactions between carnosol human targets are still unclear. The goal was to identify plausible target for network pharmacology. Rosemary analyzed using HPLC-QTOF-MS/MS. Potential were identified docking public database (CTD). screened against 708 proteins AutoDock Vina, affinity values used as...
Simira cordifolia (Hook.f.) Steyerm (Rubiaceae) is a vascular plant used in Northern Colombia as source of pigments and wood. However, there lack information regarding its pharmacology toxicity. This research aimed to study the hydroalcoholic extract protector against metal-induced toxicity Caenorhabditis elegans . Preliminary phytochemical screening S. (HAE-Sc) was conducted using HPLC-ESI-QTOF. Wild-type N2 C. larvae were exposed different concentrations HAE-Sc evaluating lethality...
The aim of this study was to evaluate the efficacy using biochar derived from oil palm (Elaeis guineensis) waste and cigarette butts in removing methylene blue (MB) wastewater. Biochar obtained through pyrolysis at 400 °C for 40 minutes. Cigarette were collected urban areas, paper covers removed, used filters washed dried. Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) utilized identify functional groups both materials. In batch adsorption assays, aqueous MB solutions placed contact with 2...
