Summary: Increasing oxygen concentrations can significantly reduce the growth of Acanthamoeba and increase ROS production, leading to growth inhibition due to oxidative stress. Further studies are needed to determine the level of oxygen saturation, exposure time, and number of sessions required to eliminate the parasite.

Summary: This study investigates the effect of doping SrTiO3 with an extremely low concentration of NiP on the catalytic activity of water splitting under visible light irradiation. It is found that the transformation of oxygen species and the construction of reactive lattice oxygen play a crucial role in improving the hydrogen generation performance. Adjusting the ratio of different oxygen species is an effective strategy to fabricate high-performance photocatalysts for H-2 evolution.

Summary: Reactive oxygen species (ROS) have significant roles in physiological and pathophysiological processes. Recent studies have shown that ROS plays a crucial role in the development and progression of osteoarthritis (OA) by mediating extracellular matrix degradation, mitochondrial dysfunction, chondrocyte apoptosis, and OA progression. Nanomaterials with ROS-scavenging ability and antioxidant effects have shown promising results in OA treatment. However, current research on nanomaterials as ROS scavengers for OA is not uniform, and the timing and potential of their clinical use remain inconsistent. This review aims to provide a reference for further studies and promote the early clinical use of nanomaterials for OA treatment.

Summary: ROS can mediate various physiological functions, but their over-accumulation can lead to premature aging or death, as well as inflammatory conditions. Advances in nanoscience have led to the development of nanomaterials with unique ROS-scavenging abilities, allowing for the emergence of next-generation strategies to ameliorate ROS-related inflammatory conditions. Ongoing studies and clinical applications of nanomedicine based on ROS scavenging stand to benefit from this interdisciplinary field.

Summary: Plant peroxisomes are dynamic organelles participating in a variety of metabolic processes and cell responses to the environment. This review focuses on the interactions and effects of reactive species such as ROS, RNS, CRS, and SRS in peroxisomes, as well as their role in regulating the redox/ROS homeostasis and plasticity of peroxisomes. The review also highlights the important role of H2O2-dependent peroxisomal retrograde signaling and discusses the specific peroxisomal footprint.

Summary: A simple strategy was provided to regulate the morphology and microstructure of (5-MnO2 via the hydrothermal reaction temperature, which improved the reactivity and lifetime of catalysts in the catalytic ozonation of toluene. The optimized MnO2-260 catalyst showed high catalytic activity and excellent stability at the approximately ambient temperature of 40 degrees C. Surface oxygen vacancy clusters, especially surface oxygen dimer vacancies, were found to be critical in ozone activation.

Summary: Miconazole, an antifungal agent, displays potent anticancer effects by inducing autophagic cell death in cancer cells, particularly in the U251MG glioblastoma cell line through ROS-dependent ER stress response. Inhibition of ER stress reduced miconazole-induced autophagy and cell death, suggesting a potential antiproliferative mechanism of miconazole in glioma cancer cells.

Summary: The study found that neoadjuvant chemoradiation therapy (CRT) significantly enriched the immune response in locally advanced rectal cancer (LARC) tissues and affected related immunogenic effects. Furthermore, CRT can lead to downregulation of MMR system-related genes and an increase in tumor mutational burden and proportions of immune-related cells in LARC tissues.

Summary: This study found that CerS4 is overexpressed in breast cancer, especially in the LumA subtype. Overexpression of CerS4 leads to activation of cancer-associated pathways, increased cell migration and epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT), and drug resistance in breast cancer cells. Therefore, CerS4 may represent an attractive target for breast cancer treatment.
