TL;DR: In this article, the active agar oligosaccharide, agarase extracted from a strain of unidentified marine bacterium from the South China Sea coast was selected for the agar depolymerization.
Abstract: In order to prepare the active agar oligosaccharide, agarase extracted from a strain of unidentified marine bacterium from the South China Sea coast was selected for the agar depolymerization. The optimum decomposing conditions were determined to be pH 7.0, 35 °C and halophilic properties 2%. Three main degraded products, AOS-1, AOS-2 and AOS-3, were separated by ethanol fractionation and anion exchange chromatography. The molecular mass was analyzed by MALDI-TOF-MS. The agar oligosaccharides exhibited antioxidative activities in scavenging hydroxyl free radical, scavenging superoxide anion radical and inhibiting lipid peroxidation. The fragment with the sulfate group showed stronger antioxidative activities than that without the sulfate group. Higher antioxidative activities were found when the molecular mass was increased. The results indicated that the antioxidative activities were closely related to the molecular mass of the agar oligosaccharides and the substitute groups binding the carbohydrate ring.

TL;DR: Au NPs were responsible of metallothionein induction, increased activities of catalase and superoxide dismutase, and of glutathione S-transferase by the three sizes of AuNPs indicating defense against oxidative stress, however, it must be underlined that these effects were observed at a dose much higher than expected in the environment.

TL;DR: Jellyfish blooms in estuaries worldwide can have substantial effects on plankton communities and fish populations because jellyfish are consumers of zooplankton and ichthyoplankton.
Abstract: Jellyfish blooms in estuaries worldwide ([1][1]) can have substantial effects on plankton communities and fish populations because jellyfish are consumers of zooplankton and ichthyoplankton. Jellyfish populations normally fluctuate regularly, causing periodic blooms. Perhaps the most damaging type

TL;DR: Current data support that antidepressants are promising to alleviate the symptom, though the efficacy is controversial, and antidementia medication and non-pharmacological interventions can be potential choices.
Abstract: Depression occurs with a high prevalence of up to 50% in patients with Alzheimer's disease (AD) and increases the caregivers' burden. Depression symptoms can precede clinical diagnosis of AD for years or occurs around the onset of AD, although the etiology and pathologic mechanism of depression in AD pathogenesis remain unclear. Here, we provide an overview on recent studies, indicating that genetic factors, neuroanatomic changes, vascular risk factors, and the imbalance of neurotransmitters might contribute to depressive symptoms in AD. Tau pathology and amyloid-β accumulation also correlate with depression in AD. In addition, the alteration of hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis, inflammatory pathway, and neurotrophin deficiency are the possible biological mechanisms linking depression and AD, and might become the potential targets for AD treatment. Current data support that antidepressants are promising to alleviate the symptom, though the efficacy is controversial. Moreover, antidementia medication and non-pharmacological interventions can be potential choices. In this review, we describe the prevalence and clinical course of depression in AD, analyze the underlying mechanisms, and discuss the possible management strategies for depression in patients with AD.
