AB  - Cannabis sativa L. known as industrial hemp manifests high capability in the manufacturing of valuable nutraceuticals with health benefits. This study was focused on investigation of chemical profile and bioactive potential of extracts isolated from three hemp varieties (Helena, Marina and Fedora 17). In addition, great attention was directed towards the use of green extraction techniques and maximum utilization of raw material. In that regard conventional (hydrodistillation – HD) and novel extraction techniques (microwave-assisted hydrodistillation – MWHD, supercritical fluid extraction – SFE and microwave-assisted extraction – MAE) were applied for isolating various fractions (essential oil, lipid extracts and liquid extract) with promising bioactive potential. Essential oils and lipid extracts were characterized regarding yield, terpenoid profile determined by GC-MS and in vitro antioxidant activity towards DPPH and ABTS + radicals. Furthermore, the content of two major cannabinoids was determined in plant material and in extract obtained by SFE. Sequential SFE technique allows obtaining lipid extracts in the first step of process as well as raffinates after SFE in the second step. MAE was applied for isolation of polyphenolic fraction from raw materials and SFE raffinates. Polyphenolic content was determined by spectrophotometric assays and UHPLC-Triple-quadrupole-MS. The results suggested that hemp is an excellent source of valuable terpenoid, cannabinoid and polyphenolic antioxidant agents, and further research should be focused on their utilization in dietary supplements and functional foods.

AB  - Stinging nettle (SN) is an extraordinary plant from the Urticaceae botanical family. It is well-known and widely used in food and folk medicine to treat different disorders and diseases. This article aimed to study the chemical composition of SN leaves extracts, i.e., polyphenolic compounds and vitamins B and C, because many studies ascribed high biological potency to these compounds and their significance in the human diet. Besides the chemical profile, the thermal properties of the extracts were studied. The results confirmed presence of many polyphenolic compounds and vitamins B and C. It also showed that the chemical profile closely correlated with the applied extraction technique. The thermal analysis showed that analyzed samples were thermally stable up to about 160 °C. Thermal degradation of samples UAE, MAE, and MAC took place in four steps, and sample SE in three steps. Altogether, results confirmed the presence of health-beneficial compounds in stinging nettle leaves and indicated the possible application of its extract in pharmaceutical and food industries as both a medicinal and food additive.

AB  - Stinging nettle (Urtica dioica L.) is one fantastic plant widely used in folk medicine, pharmacy, cosmetics, and food. This plant's popularity may be explained by its chemical composition, containing a wide range of compounds significant for human health and diet. This study aimed to investigate extracts of exhausted stinging nettle leaves after supercritical fluid extraction obtained using ultrasound and microwave techniques. Extracts were analyzed to obtain insight into the chemical composition and biological activity. These extracts were shown to be more potent than those of previously untreated leaves. The principal component analysis was applied as a pattern recognition tool to visualize the antioxidant capacity and cytotoxic activity of extract obtained from exhausted stinging nettle leaves. An artificial neural network model is presented for the prediction of the antioxidant activity of samples according to polyphenolic profile data, showing a suitable anticipation property (the r2 value during the training cycle for output variables was 0.999).

AB  - Acute ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) liver injury is a clinical condition challenging to treat. Meldonium
is an anti‑ischemic agent that shifts energy production from fatty acid oxidation to less oxygen‑
consuming glycolysis. Thus, we investigated the effects of a 4‑week meldonium pre‑treatment
(300 mg/kg b.m./day) on the acute I/R liver injury in Wistar strain male rats. Our results showed that
meldonium ameliorates I/R‑induced liver inflammation and injury, as confirmed by liver histology,
and by attenuation of serum alanine‑ and aspartate aminotransferase activity, serum and liver
high mobility group box 1 protein expression, and liver expression of Bax/Bcl2, haptoglobin, and
the phosphorylated nuclear factor kappa‑light‑chain‑enhancer of activated B cells. Through the
increased hepatic activation of the nuclear factor erythroid 2‑related factor 2, meldonium improves
the antioxidative defence in the liver of animals subjected to I/R, as proved by an increase in serum
and liver ascorbic/dehydroascorbic acid ratio, hepatic haem oxygenase 1 expression, glutathione
and free thiol groups content, and hepatic copper‑zinc superoxide dismutase, manganese superoxide
dismutase, catalase, glutathione peroxidase, and glutathione reductase activity. Based on our results,
it can be concluded that meldonium represent a protective agent against I/R‑induced liver injury, with
a clinical significance in surgical procedures.

is an anti‑ischemic agent that shifts energy production from fatty acid oxidation to less oxygen‑
consuming glycolysis. Thus, we investigated the effects of a 4‑week meldonium pre‑treatment
(300 mg/kg b.m./day) on the acute I/R liver injury in Wistar strain male rats. Our results showed that
meldonium ameliorates I/R‑induced liver inflammation and injury, as confirmed by liver histology,
and by attenuation of serum alanine‑ and aspartate aminotransferase activity, serum and liver
high mobility group box 1 protein expression, and liver expression of Bax/Bcl2, haptoglobin, and
the phosphorylated nuclear factor kappa‑light‑chain‑enhancer of activated B cells. Through the
increased hepatic activation of the nuclear factor erythroid 2‑related factor 2, meldonium improves
the antioxidative defence in the liver of animals subjected to I/R, as proved by an increase in serum
and liver ascorbic/dehydroascorbic acid ratio, hepatic haem oxygenase 1 expression, glutathione
and free thiol groups content, and hepatic copper‑zinc superoxide dismutase, manganese superoxide
dismutase, catalase, glutathione peroxidase, and glutathione reductase activity. Based on our results,
it can be concluded that meldonium represent a protective agent against I/R‑induced liver injury, with
a clinical significance in surgical procedures.",

AB  - Sepsis is a life-threatening condition caused by the dysregulated and overwhelming
response to infection, accompanied by an exaggerated pro-inflammatory state and lipid metabolism
disturbance leading to sequential organ failure. Meldonium is an anti-ischemic and anti-inflammatory
agent which negatively interferes with lipid metabolism by shifting energy production from fatty
acid oxidation to glycolysis, as a less oxygen-demanding pathway. Thus, we investigated the effects
of a four-week meldonium pre-treatment on faecal-induced sepsis in Sprague-Dawley male rats.
Surprisingly, under septic conditions, meldonium increased animal mortality rate compared with
the meldonium non-treated group. However, analysis of the tissue oxidative status did not provide
support for the detrimental effects of meldonium, nor did the analysis of the tissue inflammatory
status showing anti-inflammatory, anti-apoptotic, and anti-necrotic effects of meldonium. After
performing tissue lipidomic analysis, we concluded that the potential cause of the meldonium
harmful effect is to be found in the overall decreased lipid metabolism. The present study underlines
the importance of uninterrupted energy production in sepsis, closely drawing attention to the possible
harmful effects of lipid-mobilization impairment caused by certain therapeutics. This could lead to
the much-needed revision of the existing guidelines in the clinical treatment of sepsis while paving
the way for discovering new therapeutic approaches.

AB  - Background: Sepsis is a life-threatening condition caused by the dysregulated and overwhelming response to infection, accompanied by exaggerated pro-inflammatory state and lipid metabolism disturbance leading to sequential organ failure.1, 2 Meldonium is an anti-ischemic and anti-inflammatory agent, clinically used to treat myocardial ischemia.3 By shifting energy production from fatty acid oxidation to glycolysis, as an oxygen less consuming pathway, meldonium interferes negatively with lipid metabolism. 
Methods: Thus, we investigated the effects of a 4-week meldonium pre-treatment in 300 mg/kg b.m./day dosage on the course of the sepsis induced by a single intraperitoneal injection of faeces (0.5 g faeces/1 mL saline/100 g b.m.)in Sprague-Dawley male rats. The degree of the heart injury was evaluated by measuring tissue pro-apoptotic Bax and anti-apoptotic Bcl-2 ratio, tissue level of the necrotic marker - high mobility group box 1 protein level (HMGB1), together with the heart histology analysis. Sepsis-associated heart inflammation
was assessed by measuring level of an activated form of NF-kB p65 (phospho-NF-κB p65).
Results: In the heart whole homogenates of the septic group of animals (S) HMGB1 level increased 1.7-fold, in comparison to control rats, while meldonium reduced sepsis-induced increase by 18 % (M+S). The underlying mechanism of the proinflammatory action of HMGB1 includes activation of NF-κB signalling
pathways tissue, so the increased HMGB1 level was followed by a 1.4-fold increase of p-NF-κB p65 in the heart of the S group of rats and a 19 % decreased in the heart of M+S group. The apoptotic marker Bax/Bcl-2 ratio changed in the same manner: 1.4-fold increase in the heart of animals from the S group and a 32 % decrease in the heart of the M+S group. On the other hand, heart histology analysis shows that meldonium worsened the heart histological score, causing the severe and diffuse interstitial mononuclear infiltration along with a greater loss of myocytes and myofibrillar contraction band necrosis. The heart lipidomic analysis suggests that meldonium exhibits potentially harmful effects under septic condition due to the lipid-mobilization impairment.
Conclusion: Meldonium exerted anti-inflammatory, anti-apoptotic, and anti- necrotic effects, while it worsened the septic rat heart histology.

AB  - The main goal of this study was to establish the chemical profile of Osage orange (Maclura pomifera) leaf extracts, obtained by conventional maceration technique, and to examine its antimicrobial activity. The identification and quantification of the extract compounds were done using ultra-high-performance liquid chromatography, with a diode array detector coupled with triple-quadrupole mass spectrometer and gas chromatography–mass spectrometry techniques. Thirty-one polyphenolic compounds were detected and identified in the ethanolic extracts, whereby 5-O-caffeoylquinic acid was found to be the dominant compound. Among other compounds, pentacosane and palmitic acid were the most abundant compounds in the dichloromethane extract. The preliminary antimicrobial activity screening shows that Gram-positive bacteria tend to be more sensitive to the investigated extracts. The highest antimicrobial activity was determined against Enterococcus faecalis ATCC 19433 and Listeria monocytogenes ATCC 35152. From these results, Osage orange leaves can be considered as plant material with significant antimicrobial properties.

AB  - Acute renal ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury is a clinical condition that is challenging to
treat. Meldonium is an anti-ischemic agent that shifts energy production from fatty acid oxidation
to less oxygen-consuming glycolysis. Thus, in this study we investigated the effects of a four-week
meldonium pre-treatment (300 mg/kg b.m./day) on acute renal I/R in male rats (Wistar strain). Our
results showed that meldonium decreased animal body mass gain, food and water intake, and
carnitine, glucose, and lactic acid kidney content. In kidneys of animals subjected to I/R, meldonium
increased phosphorylation of mitogen-activated protein kinase p38 and protein kinase B, and
increased the expression of nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 and haeme oxygenase 1,
causing manganese superoxide dismutase expression and activity to increase, as well as lipid
peroxidation, cooper-zinc superoxide dismutase, glutathione peroxidase, and glutathione reductase
activities to decrease. By decreasing the kidney Bax/Bcl2 expression ratio and kidney and serum
high mobility group box 1 protein content, meldonium reduced apoptotic and necrotic events in
I/R, as confirmed by kidney histology. Meldonium increased adrenal noradrenaline content and
serum, adrenal, hepatic, and renal ascorbic/dehydroascorbic acid ratio, which caused complex
changes in renal lipidomics. Taken together, our results have confirmed that meldonium pretreatment protects against I/R-induced oxidative stress and apoptosis/necrosis.

carnitine, glucose, and lactic acid kidney content. In kidneys of animals subjected to I/R, meldonium
increased phosphorylation of mitogen-activated protein kinase p38 and protein kinase B, and
increased the expression of nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 and haeme oxygenase 1,
causing manganese superoxide dismutase expression and activity to increase, as well as lipid
peroxidation, cooper-zinc superoxide dismutase, glutathione peroxidase, and glutathione reductase
activities to decrease. By decreasing the kidney Bax/Bcl2 expression ratio and kidney and serum
high mobility group box 1 protein content, meldonium reduced apoptotic and necrotic events in
I/R, as confirmed by kidney histology. Meldonium increased adrenal noradrenaline content and
serum, adrenal, hepatic, and renal ascorbic/dehydroascorbic acid ratio, which caused complex
changes in renal lipidomics. Taken together, our results have confirmed that meldonium pretreatment protects against I/R-induced oxidative stress and apoptosis/necrosis.",
