The changes induced by ketamine exposure were developmental stage-dependent, and related with the gradual development of antioxidant defense system embryo, which is dependent on in energy-sensing pathways.
Progressive osseous heteroplasia (POH) is an exceptionally rare genetic disorder characterized by progressive heterotopic ossification of cutaneous, subcutaneous, and deep connective tissues. Most cases are associated with paternally inherited inactivating mutations in the guanine nucleotide-binding protein, alpha-stimulating gene. However, basis remains undefined a subset patients, adding further complexity to its pathogenesis. With fewer than 100 documented worldwide, POH presents...
Understanding the impact of endocrine disruptor compounds (EDCs) across a wide range species is crucial, given their ubiquitous presence. Although invertebrate lack sex steroid hormone pathways, they exhibit sensitivity to EDCs, which could affect population dynamics. This study assessed reproductive endpoints and oxidative stress parameters in Eisenia fetida following exposure estradiol soy isoflavones, resembling concentrations found livestock manure. The experiment used artificial soil,...
Ketamine, a widely used anesthetic, has been shown to have NMDA receptor dependent and independent actions during zebrafish (Danio rerio) embryogenesis. Notwithstanding, the effects of developmental toxicity mechanisms ketamine action on fish embryos are still not well understood, its implications for early vertebrate development remains be clarified. In this work, were exposed (0.2, 0.4, 0.8 mg mL(-1)) in order study stage-developmental pharmaceutical. During 256-cell (2.5 h...
Abstract Endocrine-disrupting compounds (EDCs) are ubiquitous in soil, posing serious risks to soil biota, especially earthworms, which have been found be affected by these compounds, despite not being their typical target organisms. Earthworms essential for sustaining health and quality, promoting aeration, organic matter decomposition nutrient cycling, among other functions. This review synthesizes available literature evidencing the negative impact of EDC exposure, through traditional...
