Although the extent of GOD-induced cytotoxicity (reduction of cell viability) to the two cell lines is similar, their toxicity mechanisms are interestingly found to be substantially different. In the HCT116 cancer cells, cell membrane leakage leads to DNA damage followed by cell death, whereas in the NIH3T3 normal cells, increases in oxidative stress and physical interference between the GODs and the cells are identified as the main toxicity sources.Tumor cells are characterized by increased reactive oxygen species production in parallel with an enhanced antioxidant system to avoid oxidative damage. The inhibition of antioxidant systems is an effective way to kill cancer cells, and the thioredoxin system or, more specifically, the cytosolic selenocysteine-containing enzyme thioredoxin reductase (TrxR) has become an interesting target for cancer therapy. We show here that the known cytotoxic and apoptosis-inducing osmium carbonyl cluster Os3(CO)10(NCCH3)2 (1) is a nonsubstrate inhibitor of mammalian TrxR, with an IC50 of 5.3 ± 0.9 μM. It inhibits TrxR selectively over the closely related glutathione reductase (GR) and in the presence of excess reduced glutathione (GSH). This inhibition has also been demonstrated in cell lysates, suggesting that TrxR inhibition is a potential apoptotic pathway for 1.Electronic cigarettes (ECIGs) have always been promoted as safer alternatives to combustible cigarettes. However, a growing amount of literature shows that while ECIGs do not involve combustion-derived toxicants, thermal degradation of the main constituents of ECIG liquid produces toxicants such as carbonyls. In this study, we report the detection of phenolic compounds in ECIG aerosols using a novel analytical method. The introduced method relies on liquid-liquid extraction to separate phenols from the major constituents of ECIG a
