The relationship between aflatoxin B1 with the induction of extrinsic/intrinsic pathways of apoptosis and the protective role of taraxasterol in TM3 leydig cell line
Ecotoxicol Environ Saf. 2024 Apr 13;276:116316. doi: 10.1016/j.ecoenv.2024.116316. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTAflatoxins B1 (AFB1) a dangerous type of aflatoxin, poses a serious threat to human health. Meanwhile, Taraxasterol, a bioactive compound in dandelion, exhibits strong anti-inflammatory and antioxidant activity. Therefore, the aim of this study was to investigate the impact of AFB1 on the intrinsic and extrinsic pathways of apoptosis, as well as evaluate the protective role of taraxasterol in the TM3 Leydig cell line. Cell viability was evaluated using an MTT assay, measuring the effects of 3.6 µM AFB1 and vary...

Decoration of dandelion-like manganese-doped iron oxide microflowers on plasma-treated biochar for alleviation of heavy metal pollution in water
Chemosphere. 2024 Apr 5:141757. doi: 10.1016/j.chemosphere.2024.141757. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTCarbon-based biowaste incorporated with inorganic oxides as a composite is an enticing option to mitigate heavy metal pollution in water resources due to its more economical and efficient performance. With this in mind, we constructed manganese-doped iron oxide microflowers resembling the dandelion-like structure on the surface of cold plasma-treated carbonized rice husk (MnFe2O3/PCRH). The prepared composite exhibited 45% and 19% higher removal rates for Cu2+ and Cd2+, respectively, than the pristine CRH. The MnFe2O3/PCRH...

Potentialities of dandelion (Taraxacum mongolicum Hand.-Mazz.) flower extracts on gastric protection against Helicobacter pylori and characterization of its bioactive constituents
CONCLUSION: EEDF exhibited anti-H. pylori, gastroprotective and anti-inflammatory effects. Chicoric acid and luteolin may be the main active compounds of dandelion flowers to exert anti-H. pylori, and worthy of further investigation.PMID:38568379 | DOI:10.1002/cbdv.202400140 (Source: Chemistry and Biodiversity)

“Four‐In‐One” Multifunctional Dandelion‐Like Gold@platinum Nanoparticles‐Driven Multimodal Lateral Flow Immunoassay
A multimodal LFIA is developed based on the “four-in-one” properties of MDGP including fluorescence quenching, optical readout, catalytic activity, and photothermal effect. Benefiting from the broad absorption spectrum, porous dandelion-like nanostructure, and bimetallic composition (gold and platinum) of MDGP, the MDGP-LFIA enables multi modal outputs including fluorescent, colorimetric, and photothermal signals. AbstractThe traditional lateral flow immunoassay (LFIA) with a single signal output mode may encounter challenges such as low sensitivity, poor detection range, and susceptibility to external interferences. T...
