Silymarin, a natural compound derived from milk thistle, has demonstrated promising anticancer properties. This work explored the inhibitory effects of silymarin on lung cancer metastasis and revealed the underlying processes, focusing on matrix metalloproteinase (MMP) 2 and MMP-9 activities. Using a combination of in vitro and molecular docking analyses, we found that silymarin effectively reducing the lung cancer cells' motility and invasion by modulation of expression of MMP-2 and MMP-9. Furthermore, MTT assays revealed a dose-dependent inhibition of cell proliferation upon silymarin treatment and found the IC<sub>50</sub> value at 58 μM. We observe that apoptotic morphology characteristic in silymarin treated groups. Cell cycle analysis exhibit the cell cycle arrest at G1 phase, 25.8 % increased apoptosis in silymarin treated groups, as evidenced by Annexin V staining. Moreover, silymarin treatment shows the lipid peroxidation in elevated level and reduced in enzymatic antioxidant level, indicating its potential role in mitigating oxidative stress induce cell death. Gelatin zymography assay indicates the silymarin has ability to inhibit the MMP-2 and MMP-9 expression in lung cancer. Additionally, cell migration assays and colony formation assays demonstrated impaired migratory and colony-forming abilities of lung cancer cells when treated with silymarin. Molecular docking studies further supported the binding affinity of silymarin with MMP-2 and MMP-9, demonstrate the −10.26 and −6.69 kcal/mol of binding energy. Collectively, our findings highlight the multifaceted anticancer properties of silymarin against lung cancer metastasis, providing insights into its therapeutic potential as an adjuvant treatment strategy.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":23129,"journal":{"name":"Toxicology Reports","volume":"13 ","pages":"Article 101746"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-09-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142424914","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, the Pesticide Peer Review Expert meeting (EFSA) lowered the NOAEL to 10 mg/kg bw/day due to observed diaphragm malformations in one developmental toxicity study in rabbits, proposing a classification for developmental effects as Category 2 R63 or H361d. Both JMPR and EFSA set the Acceptable Daily Intake (ADI) at 0.1 mg/kg bw/day, derived from a 2-year rat study NOAEL with a safety factor of 100, but EFSA also supported ADI by teratology study in rabbits. The current prenatal developmental toxicity study on pinoxaden aimed to elucidate and clarify the potential teratogenic effects and could provide supplementary data for determining the ADI for pinoxaden. The study design exceeded the OECD TG 414 by including an assessment of internal organs. The test item was orally administered by gavage daily from day 6 to day 28 of gestation to three groups of animals, each composed of 21 females, in dose levels of 0, 10 and 30 mg/kg/bw/day. One female from the 30 mg/kg/bw/day dose group was euthanized in extremis on Day 27 <em>post-coitum</em> due to premature delivery, likely induced by poor general condition and was therefore considered to be an indirect effect of the test item. One female at 30 mg/kg/bw/day had entirely dead litters except for one live male pup (9 non-live implants vs 1 live fetus). Since the incidence of post-implantation loss or mean number of the dead pups within the remaining dams at 30 mg/kg/ bw/day that survived to necropsy was not significantly increased, we assume that the toxic effect was on the dam, rather than on the conceptus. No pinoxaden-related skeletal or visceral variations or malformations were observed. No evidence of developmental toxicity was observed. Under the conditions of the study, the pinoxaden produced maternal toxicity at a high dose tested; thus, NOAEL for maternal toxicity was determined to be 10 mg/kg bw/day. NOAEL for developmental toxicity was established at 30 mg/kg bw/day. The obtained results may supplement the overall safety and toxicity profile of pinoxaden.

Though a number of articles have been published on scorpion stings in the country, no review studies have sought to determine the severity of scorpion envenomation using a standardized scale. The purpose of this systematic review is, thus, to explore the signs and symptoms of scorpion envenomation victims in Saudi Arabia and classify them using the Abroug's severity scale. This review identified 49 articles published between January 1953 and September 2024 on scorpion sting incidents in Saudi Arabia. Out of this total, 26 (53.1 %) articles met the systematic review criteria. The selected articles were reviewed by an emergency physician, a pediatrician, an assistant professor, and a consultant in toxicology, knowing that all examined articles were published in peer reviewed journals indexed in PubMed, EMBASE, Scopus, Web of science and CINAHL. Preset keywords and medical subject headings (MeSH terms) were used for the review. Three reviewed studies reported that 20–52 % of scorpion victims are asymptomatic. Other studies confirmed that Class I local manifestations, such as pain, erythema, swelling, and burning are present in the majority of scorpion sting victims (47.4–100 %). Class II systemic symptoms, such as hypertension, tachycardia, restlessness, cold extremities, gastrointestinal abnormalities and priapism, were reported in 15 studies, while bleeding was recorded in 2 patients in the same study. More complicated Class III cases manifested neurological deteriorations (seizures, neurotoxicity and unconsciousness), pulmonary edema, and pulmonary/cardiac arrest. Jointly, the studies revealed that a total of 16,745 scorpion sting victims were admitted and hospitalized for more than 24 h, and hospital stay duration varied, for all patients, between 3 h and 4 weeks. Around 1371 cases in six studies refused treatment and were discharged against medical advice. Fifteen victims across ten studies died from the scorpion stings. Children and patients with pre-existing clinical conditions generally reported more severe signs and symptoms. Study findings showed that practitioners should be aware of the early warning signs of pulmonary edema, cardiac toxicity and myocarditis, which are not uncommon post scorpion envenomation. Practitioners should also take into consideration that electrolyte imbalances might occur, but they do not usually pose serious clinical problems. Hemorrhages might happen, but they are mostly treatable.
