Various regeneration protocols have been developed or modified in vitro to ensure the availability of biomass and secondary metabolites of Bacopa. We applied hydrothermally treated titanium dioxide (TiO2) nanoparticles (NPs) (TiO2-NPs) at different concentrations. Three explants, distal portion of half leaf (DPHL), proximal portion of half leaf (PPHL) and full leaf (FL), were used to evaluate response to TiO2. Regeneration from the three explants in vitro was similar except for shoot length. Application of TiO2-NPs exerted significant, but variable, effects on all parameters except percentage of shoot formation, which was 100%. Interactive effects of explant and TiO2-NPs exhibited significant, but variable, effects on fresh weight and percentage of callus formation. All explants produced more shoots using TiO2-NPs compared to control treatments. DPHL explants with application of 8 mg/l TiO2 produced more shoots than controls. Similarly, FL explant treated with 2 mg/l TiO2-NPs produced more shoots/explant than controls. All concentrations of TiO2-NPs produced significantly longer shoots compared to controls. Increased elongation of shoots justifies use of TiO2-NPs for propagation of plants in vitro during acclimatization. Use of TiO2-NPs for rapid elongation of shoots ultimately fosters survival of plants.","PeriodicalId":8970,"journal":{"name":"Biotechnic & Histochemistry","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"40468738","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We investigated the relation of the PGC-1α/FNDC5/irisin pathway to exercise training and to the pathophysiology of ischemic stroke in paretic muscles of stroke-induced rat models. We induced cerebral ischemia following completion of high-intensity interval training (HIIT) to evaluate PGC1α-pathway biofactors in paretic muscles. To define the underlying molecular mechanisms for improvement in paretic muscles following cerebral ischemia, we evaluated PCG-1α-pathway factors using immunofluorescence tracking and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) immunoassay. We found that HIIT for 3 weeks produced increased expression and release of PGC-1α-pathway biomarkers in both the serum and paretic muscle of stroke-induced rats. We also found a close relation between the expression of PCG-1α-pathway factors in skeletal muscle and their concentration in blood. We found that PGC-1α-pathway biomarkers cause irisin up-regulation following induction of cerebral ischemia. The reduction in neurofunctional deficits following increased PGC-1α-pathway biomarkers suggests that these factors may act as markers of improvement in paretic muscle healing following cerebral ischemia.","PeriodicalId":8970,"journal":{"name":"Biotechnic & Histochemistry","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"40548354","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Thirty male rats were assigned randomly into three equal groups: control (CG), Dox group (DG) Liv-52 + Dox group (LD).

On day 8, the animals were sacrificed, and serum and tissue biochemical and histopathological assays were performed. The malondialdehyde level was increased significantly in the DG group, while glutathione and superoxide dismutase levels were significantly lower in the DG group compared to the LD and CG groups. The highest levels of alanine aminotransferase, aspartate aminotransferase and lactate dehydrogenase were found in the DG group, while the lowest levels were found in the CG group, which exhibited levels similar to those of the LD group.
