Inspite of various health warnings from Government and health organizations, Calcium carbide (CaC2) is still the most commonly and widely used artificial fruit ripener, probably due to its easy availability, low cost and convenience of usage. Assessment of the hazardous effects of the CaC2 applications for fruit ripening has been a matter of interest since long. Several in vivo studies have reported the toxicological outcomes such as histopathological changes in lungs and kidneys, haematological and immunological responses, upon exposure with CaC2. However, a well-controlled study investigating the effects of CaC2 under in-vitro setup was lacking. Hence, this study has been conducted to explore the toxicity associated cellular events in L929 cells exposed with varying concentrations of CaC2 (0.00312-0.2 μg/μl) for 24 h exposure time. A 23.14% reduction in cell viability was observed at the highest dose of CaC2. A similar trend in cellular stress levels at 0.2 μg/μl dose was observed in terms of rounded cellular morphology and decreased adherence as compared to the control. Furthermore, Annexin V FITC/PI staining and subsequent confocal imaging revealed a similar trend of CaC2 induced apoptosis in a dose dependent manner. A gradual elevation of intracellular ROS has also been observed up to 0.025 μg/μl dose. Thus, the study concludes that short term CaC2 exposure may increase the cellular oxidative stress and disturb the redox balance of the cell which then undergoes apoptosis. The study concludes that the exposure of CaC2 can be associated with severe diseases and suggests to stop the uses of CaC2 as fruit ripening agent.Background Frontotemporal dementia (FTD) is characterized by progressive deterioration in behaviors, executive function and/or language. The behavioral variant (Bv) is characterized by disinhibition and obsessive/compulsive behaviors. These symptoms are sometimes resistant to medications. This series examines patients suffering with treatment-resistant Bv-FTD who were prescribed cannabinoid and related compounds for other indications. Case presentation Three FTD cases from a dementia clinic were identified. These patients had disability due to behavior despite typical pharmacologic management. These patients were prescribed marijuana for comorbidities (anxiety, insomnia and pain). In all cases, use of cannabinoid products showed significant improvements in behavior and in the primary indication for prescription. Conclusion Review of these cases demonstrates potential for the use of cannabinoids in the management of treatment-resistant Bv-FTD.Colon cancer is the commonest cancer worldwide. α-Hederin is a monodesmosidic triterpenoid saponin possessing diverse pharmacological activities. https://www.selleckchem.com/products/Eloxatin.html The running experiment was designed to test the chemopreventive activity of α-hederin when used as an adjuvant to carboplatin in an experimental model of mouse colon hyperplasia induced by 1,2-dimethylhydrazine (DMH). Fifty male Swiss albino mice were classified into five groups group (I) saline group, group (II) DMH-induced colon hyperplasia control group, group (III) DMH + carboplatin (5 mg/kg) group, group (IV) DMH + α-hederin (80 mg/kg) group, and group (V) DMH + carboplatin (5 mg/kg)+α-hederin (80 mg/kg) group. Analyzing of colonic tissue indicated that the disease control group showed higher colon levels of phospho-PI3K to total-PI3K, phospho-AKT to total-AKT and cyclin D1 concurrent with lower phospho-JNK/total JNK ratio and caspase 3. However, treatment with α-hederin, in combination with carboplatin, favorably ameliorated phosphorylation of PI3K/AKT/JNK proteins, increased colon caspase 3 and downregulated cyclin D1. Microscopically, α-hederin, in combination with carboplatin, produced the most reduction in the histologic hyperplasia score, enhanced the goblet cell survival in periodic acid Schiff staining and reduced proliferation (Ki-67 immunostaining) in the current colon hyperplasia model. Collectively, the current study highlighted for the first time that using α-hederin as an adjuvant to carboplatin enhanced its chemopreventive activity, improved JNK signaling and increased apoptosis. Hence, further studies are warranted to test α-hederin as a promising candidate with chemotherapeutic agents in treating colon cancer. Nursing turnover is a very serious problem, and nursing managers need to be aware of how ethical climates are associated with turnover intention. The article explored the effects of ethical climates on nurses' turnover intention, mediated through trust in their organization. A cross-sectional survey of 285 nurses from three Indian hospitals was conducted to test the research model. Various established Likert-type scales were used to measure ethical climates, turnover intention and trust in organization. Hierarchical regression analysis and mediation analysis were used to test the model. Hierarchical regression analysis and mediation analysis were used to test the model. The indirect effect of benevolent ethical climate on turnover intention through trust in organization was -0.20 with a 95% bootstrap confidence interval of lower level = -0.31 and upper level = -0.01. The indirect effect of principled ethical climate on turnover intention through trust in organization was -0.39 with a 95% bootstrap confidence interval of lower level = -0.58 and upper level = -0.17. The study adheres to the ethical standards recommended by the American Psychological Association for conducting research with informed consent, confidentiality and privacy. Both benevolent and principled ethical climates decreased turnover intention indirectly through trust in organization. Only principled ethical climates were directly associated with turnover intention. Our results suggest that nurse managers and leaders should try and establish principled and benevolent climates in order to engender trust in organization and to reduce turnover intention.
