TL;DR: It is explored that metformin treatment restores the antioxidant status, enzymatic activity and inflammatory parameters in type 2 diabetic patients, and improves the status of oxidative and nitrosative stress altered in type 1 diabetes.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors provided the first collective discussion on extent and controls of elevated As in deeper groundwater of a regional study area in the western part of the Bengal basin, where they defined deeper groundwater as non-brackish, potable (Cl- <= 250 mg/L) groundwater available at the maximum accessed depth (similar to 80-300 m).

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: The result demonstrates that Fe(II)-Fe(III) cycling is the dominant process for the release of As from aquifer sediments to groundwater (and vice versa), which is mainly controlled by the local biogeochemical conditions.

TL;DR: Both the in vitro and in vivo studies indicated that the developed in situ gelling formulations containing PM with an XG-GG combination had a better ability to retain the drug than PM itself.

TL;DR: In this paper, the role of variable S supply on rice leaf proteome, its inclination towards amino acids (AA) profile and non protein thiols under arsenite exposure was explored.
Abstract: Arsenic (As) contamination of water is a global concern and rice consumption is the biggest dietary exposure to human posing carcinogenic risks, predominantly in Asia. Sulfur (S) is involved in di-sulfide linkage in many proteins and plays crucial role in As detoxification. Present study explores role of variable S supply on rice leaf proteome, its inclination towards amino acids (AA) profile and non protein thiols under arsenite exposure. Analysis of 282 detected proteins on 2-DE gel revealed 113 differentially expressed proteins, out of which 80 were identified by MALDI-TOF-TOF. The identified proteins were mostly involved in glycolysis, TCA cycle, AA biosynthesis, photosynthesis, protein metabolism, stress and energy metabolism. Among these, glycolytic enzymes play a major role in AA biosynthesis that leads to change in AAs profiling. Proteins of glycolytic pathway, photosynthesis and energy metabolism were also validated by western blot analysis. Conclusively S supplementation reduced the As accumulation in shoot positively skewed thiol metabolism and glycolysis towards AA accumulation under AsIII stress.
