A 10-min CP treatment inactivates <em>Escherichia coli (E. coli)</em> with up to 7 log reduction in colony-forming units (CFU) on a smooth agar surface; however, on chicken breast, the same treatment yields a 0.88 log reduction. By comparison, the common antiseptic H<sub>2</sub>O<sub>2</sub> (3 %) yields a 1.06 log CFU reduction on chicken breast after 10 min of treatment. Simultaneous treatment with CP and H<sub>2</sub>O<sub>2</sub> increases <em>E. coli</em> inactivation to 1.69 log CFU. Bacterial inactivation is less efficient on the chicken tissue than on smooth agar surfaces. Furthermore, the CP-H<sub>2</sub>O<sub>2</sub> combination significantly improves bacterial inactivation, which can be further enhanced by extending treatment time. This work demonstrates an approach to evaluating the efficacy of combining CP with liquid antimicrobial treatments on an accessible wound surrogate with complex morphology and biochemistry. This approach has the potential to serve as a fast method to screen candidate treatments before performing animal studies.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":8771,"journal":{"name":"Biochemistry and Biophysics Reports","volume":"44 ","pages":"Article 102296"},"PeriodicalIF":2.2,"publicationDate":"2025-10-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145216732","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In all samples under hypoxia, HIF-1α stabilization was accompanied by a decrease in Nrf2 and p62/SQSTM1 proteins; redox imbalance also occurred, as documented by increased levels of ROS and parallel lowering of glutathione. Trehalose treatment increased Nrf2 and p62 proteins under normoxia, an effect lost or downsized under hypoxia.

As regards long-term cell fate (evaluated as colony-forming capacity), hypoxia only proved to be a favorable condition for T98G cells.

It was observed that RSV, despite acting in the AD group, had its antioxidant power reduced compared to the group without AD. RSV was able to increase GPx in both groups.
