Aging-induced memory loss due to decreased N1-acetyl-5-methoxykynuramine,a melatonin metabolite,in the hippocampus:a potential prophylactic agent for dementia

Melatonin(N-acetyl-5-methoxytryptamine)is known as the hormone of darkness because it is synthesized at night and involved in regulating the circadian clock.The hormone is primarily synthesized by the vertebrate pineal gland,but is ubiquitous among invertebrates,unicellular organisms,plants,and even cyanobacteria(Hattori and Suzuki,2024).Melatonin is well-conserved evolutionarily and possesses several physiological functions,such as immune response,bone and glucose metabolism,and memory formation besides regulating the circadian rhythm.

General anesthetic agents induce neurotoxicity through oligodendrocytes in the developing brain

General anesthetic agents can impact brain function through interactions with neurons and their effects on glial cells.Oligodendrocytes perform essential roles in the central nervous system,including myelin sheath formation,axonal metabolism,and neuroplasticity regulation.They are particularly vulnerable to the effects of general anesthetic agents resulting in impaired proliferation,differentiation,and apoptosis.Neurologists are increasingly interested in the effects of general anesthetic agents on oligodendrocytes.These agents not only act on the surface receptors of oligodendrocytes to elicit neuroinflammation through modulation of signaling pathways,but also disrupt metabolic processes and alter the expression of genes involved in oligodendrocyte development and function.In this review,we summarize the effects of general anesthetic agents on oligodendrocytes.We anticipate that future research will continue to explore these effects and develop strategies to decrease the incidence of adverse reactions associated with the use of general anesthetic agents.

Screening of Anti-Infectives against Leishmania donovani

Aim: To evaluate in vitro the effectiveness of several anti-infective agents alone and in combination against Leishmania donovani. Method: A convenient stratified sampling method was used to obtain selected anti-infective agents. For individual drug samples, Half Maximal Inhibitory Concentrations (IC50) were obtained using the broth dilution method. The IC50’s of the drugs which were active against L. donovani were used as reference values to prepare drug combinations for the modified microdilution checkerboard method. Results: Five (5) out of the fifty-six (56) drugs used showed activity (inhibition of cell growth) against L. donovani cells. They include Quinine sulphate (IC50 = 0.089 μg/ml), gentamicin (IC50 = 8.1 μg/ml), amodiaquine (IC50 = 138 μg/ml) and the two standard drugs: Amphotericin B (IC50 = 6.3 μg/ml) and Pentamidine (IC50 = 25 μg/ml). The remaining fifty-one (51) drugs did not show any inhibition within the range of concentrations used (1.25 - 160 μg/ml). The drug combinations of Pentamidine/Amodiaquine, Pentamidine/ Quinine sulphate, Pentamidine/Gentamicin, Amphotericin B/Quinine Sulphate, Amphotericin B/ Gentamicin, Amodiaquine/Quinine sulphate and Amodiaquine/Gentamicin showed synergistic effects against L. donovani whereas the Amphotericin B/Amodiaquine combination was antagonistic. Notable in the results obtained was the high effectiveness of quinine sulphate in inhibiting the growth of L. donovani. Quinine sulphate, though not indicated for leishmania treatment, was more effective than the two standard drugs and has a potential of playing a significant role in the treatment of leishmaniasis. Conclusion: This study has revealed five (5) anti-infective agents that by themselves or in combinations show activity against L. donovani. Some of the drug combinations which showed synergism should further be investigated. These results have to be confirmed by in vivo studies to define their roles in leishmaniasis treatment.

Observations on the Preventive Effects of Anti-infective Treatment on Wound Infection in Emergency Surgery

Objective:To explore the preventive effects of anti-infective treatment on wound infection in emergency surgical trauma.Methods:180 patients in our hospital from 2019 to June to May 2020 were selected as subjects.The 180 patients were randomly divided into two groups.The control group had 90 cases and adopted the conventional treatment method,and the experimental group received anti-infective treatment.The wound healing,infection status,and patient satisfaction of the two groups of patients were analyzed.Results:The wound healing,infection status,and patient satisfaction of the experimental group were better than those of the control group.Conclusion:The application of anti-infective treatment to the prevention of wound infection in emergency surgical trauma can reduce the infection rate of the patients'incision and promote the recovery of patients.It is suitable for clinical applications.

Chemical constituents and theiranti-infective activity of Paeonia suffruticosa

Objective:Research the chemical constituents of Paeonia suffruticosa that are responsible for its anti-infective properties.Methods:Several column chromatographic methods were used to purify the chemical constituents from P.suffruticosa,including medium pressure liquid chromatography,Sephadex LH-20,and normal silica gel.A disc diffusion method was used to screen for antibacterial activity,and their anti-virulence activity was assessed on the type III secretion system(T3SS)of Salmonella pathogenicity island 1(SPI-1)in Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium UK-1 g 8956 by SDS-PAGE and western blots.Results:Twenty-one compounds were identified.Compounds 7,8 and 17 showed moderate activity against S.aureus ATCC25923,compounds 8,9 and 10 showed weak activities against B.subtilis ACCC11060.Meanwhile,phenols(14-18)and flavonoids(20 and 21)inhibited T3SS protein secretion of S.typhimurium without affecting bacterial growth.Furthermore,a strong inhibitory effect was observed for 17 and 20 on SPI-1 mediated invasion of HeLa cells.Additionally,no toxicity was observed for these compounds.Conclusion:P.suffruticosa has anti-infective properties due in part to the fact that phenols and flavonoids can block the secretion of T3SS-associated protein effectors.
