Summary: This study evaluated the role of exogenously applied salicylic acid (SA) in ameliorating oxidative damage caused by the herbicide mesosulfuron-methyl + iodosulfuron-methyl in wheat plants. The results showed that SA pre-treatment reduced the herbicide-induced physiological damage by regulating enzymatic antioxidants and decreasing the contents of hydrogen peroxide and malondialdehyde.

Summary: This study investigates the effect of salicylic acid (SA) on vanadium (V) stress tolerance in rice seedlings. The results show that SA pretreatment improves the growth of rice seedlings by enhancing chlorophyll content, photosynthetic assimilation, and antioxidant enzyme activities. SA also regulates the expression of genes related to antioxidant enzymes and glyoxalase, reducing the accumulation of V and methylglyoxal and enhancing the stress resistance of rice seedlings.

Summary: Cadmium in the food system poses a serious threat to human health. This experiment found that exogenous applied strigolactone can alleviate the toxic effects of Cd on wheat plants by reducing Cd contents, elevating the expression of genes encoding antioxidant defense system, and protecting plants from oxidative stress.

Summary: MLN-4760 did not worsen pre-existing hypertension and behavioral hyperactivity/anxiety in SHRs. However, MLN-4760-induced oxidative damage in the brainstem was associated with activation of NO- and H2S-mediated compensatory mechanisms and increased expression of antioxidant, NO and H2S-producing enzymes, which correlated positively with elevated Nfe2l2 expression.

Summary: Melatonin (MT) at a concentration of 0.05 mM showed potential in alleviating chilling injury (CI) in ‘Xuxiang’ kiwifruit during storage at 1°C for 90 days. The pretreatment of MT stimulated the generation of endogenous salicylic acid (SA) and enhanced the defense response and antioxidative protection of kiwifruit against chilling stress. However, the positive effects of MT were counteracted when combined with paclobutrazol PAC, a SA biosynthesis inhibitor.

Summary: NOS-derived NO plays a critical role in protecting cyanobacteria from oxidative burst and maintaining their physiological balance. Addition of L-NAME inhibitor reduces NO accumulation, while addition of L-arginine increases NO synthesis. Inhibition of NOS leads to decreased growth and metabolic activity of cyanobacteria, as well as decline in photopigments, PSII efficiency, loss in membrane integrity and DNA damage, ultimately resulting in cell death.

Summary: The study showed that sodium nitroprusside (SNP) can effectively improve the growth and productivity of soybean under salinity stress by regulating antioxidant mechanism. SNP treatment enhanced root and shoot length, fresh and dry weight, chlorophyll contents, and activities of various antioxidant enzymes, alleviating damage to cell organelles under salinity stress.

Summary: The study showed that exogenous sodium nitroprusside (SNP) could potentially reverse the adverse effects of simulated acid rain (SAR) on mung bean seedlings by stimulating antioxidant enzyme activities and reducing oxidative stress. The application of 0.25 mM SNP eliminated reactive oxygen species (ROS) and mitigated the toxic effects of SAR, providing a basis for further research on the mechanism of nitric oxide (NO) in plants under SAR conditions.

Summary: Foliar application of salicylic acid improves salt tolerance of fenugreek plants by increasing chlorophyll content index and reducing malondialdehyde content, while promoting accumulation of proline, total phenolics, and flavonoids. Additionally, it enhances total free amino acids and shikimic acid, and activates antioxidant enzymes such as ascorbate peroxidase, peroxidase, polyphenol oxidase, and catalase.

Summary: The presence of arsenic in groundwater poses a potential agronomic problem by accumulating in the food chain. Using plant growth-promoting bacteria (PGPB) is an important tool to reduce metal toxicity. When maize plants were exposed to arsenate, different strains of bacteria led to morphological changes in root exodermis, decreased photosynthetic pigments, and induced oxidative stress, with differential antioxidant responses observed.

Summary: The study investigated the effects of exogenous NO and proline on the protection of wheat plants from heat stress. Heat-stressed plants showed increased oxidative stress and proline accumulation, as well as elevated levels of ethylene and NO generation. The application of SNP and proline improved photosynthesis and reduced oxidative stress in heat-stressed plants by enhancing the antioxidant defense system.

Summary: The study utilized loquat kernel powder as a fermentation substrate to produce pigments from Monascus purpureus, investigating the effect of four mineral salts on pigment production. Results showed that the addition of different salts could regulate pigment production, with a combination of three salts leading to increased enzyme and red pigment production. Additionally, optimized medium led to higher concentrations of pigments and enzyme activities in both flask and fermenter cultures.
