Reactive oxygen species (ROS) are ubiquitous metabolic products and important cellular signaling molecules that contribute to several biological functions. Pathophysiology arises when ROS are generated either in excess or in cell types or subcellular locations that normally do not produce ROS or when non-physiological types of ROS (e.g., superoxide instead of hydrogen peroxide) are formed. In the latter scenario, antioxidants were considered as the apparent remedy but, clinically, have consistently failed and even sometimes induced harm. The obvious reason for that is the non-selective ROS scavenging effects of antioxidants which interfere with both qualities of ROS, physiological and pathological. Therefore, it is essential to overcome this "antidote or neutralizer" strategy. We here review the most promising alternative approach by identifying the disease-relevant enzymatic sources of ROS, target these selectively, but leave physiological ROS signaling through other sources intact. Among all ROS sources, NANOX1, NOX2, NOX4, NOX5). Of note, NOX5 is not present in mice and rats and thus pre-clinically less studied. NOX2, formerly termed gp91phox, has been correlated with many, too many, diseases and is rather relevant as genetic deficiency in chronic granulomatous disease (CGD), treated by gene therapy. Overproduction of ROS through NOX1, NOX4, and NOX5 leads to the indicated diseases states including atherosclerosis (red), a condition where NOX4 is surprisingly protective.Most diseases are defined by a symptom, not a mechanism. Consequently, therapies remain symptomatic. In reverse, many potential disease mechanisms remain in arbitrary search for clinical relevance. Reactive oxygen species (ROS) are such an example. It is an attractive hypothesis that dysregulation of ROS can become a disease trigger. Indeed, elevated ROS levels of various biomarkers have been correlated with almost every disease, yet after decades of research without any therapeutic application. We here present a first systematic, non-hypothesis-based approach to transform this field as a proof of concept for biomedical research in general. We selected as seed proteins 9 families with 42 members of clinically researched ROS-generating enzymes, ROS-metabolizing enzymes or ROS targets. Applying an unbiased network medicine approach, their first neighbours were connected, and, based on a stringent subnet participation degree (SPD) of 0.4, hub nodes excluded. This resulted in 12 distinct human interactome-based Rce, oxidative stress and eventually disease. The source of ROS is less relevant; there is also ROS-induced ROS formation, i.e. by secondary sources (see upwards arrow). The non-hypothesis-based network medicine approach uses genetically or otherwise validated risk genes to construct disease-relevant signalling modules, which will contain also ROS targets. Not all ROS sources will be relevant for a given disease; some may not be disease relevant at all. The three examples show (from left to right) the disease-relevant appearance of an unphysiological ROS modifier/toxifier protein, ROS target or ROS source.
The aim of this study is to evaluate the cytoprotection and potential molecular mechanisms of cyanidin-3-glucoside (C3G) on hydrogen peroxide (H
O
)-induced oxidative damage in HepG2 cells.

The 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide (MTT) assay was carried out to examine the viability of HepG2 cells exposure to H
O
or C3G. Meanwhile, the antioxidant properties of C3G were measured by determining the activities of superoxide dismutase (SOD), glutathione peroxidase (GSH-Px), catalase (CAT) and the malondialdehyde (MDA) levels. Flow cytometry was employed to determine HepG2 cells apoptosis, and HepG2 cells were stained with Hoechst 33342 to observe cell morphology. 2',7'-dichlorofluorescin diacetate (DCFH-DA) was used to evaluate the production of intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS). Finally, the expression of apoptosis-related protein was monitored through western blot analysis.

HepG2 cells induced with H
O
presented a remarkable decrease in cell viability that was suppressed when HepG2 cells were interfered with C3G (2.5-10μM). C3G interference memorably and dose-dependently inhibited H
O
-induced intracellular ROS and MDA overproduction, while C3G treatment markedly increased H
O
-induced the activities of intracellular SOD, GSH-Px and CAT. Eventually, the relative proteins expression levels of p53, cleaved caspase-9/3, cytochrome c, Fas-L, Fas, FADD and caspase-8 were substantially up-regulated in H
O
-triggered HepG2 cells, and Bax/Bcl-2 ratio and the relative proteinexpression levels of PARP were dramatically down-regulated. However, the expression levels of these relative proteins were reversed in C3G-interfered HepG2 cells.

C3G could protect HepG2 cells from oxidative damage, and the effects that were mediated by the mitochondrial apoptotic pathways and the external pathways.

The choice of the device for monitoring depends mainly on the frequency of arrhythmias. If they occur less than once a month, long-term monitoring becomes necessary which either continuously monitors the rhythm by an implantable device (implantables) or by wearable systems (wearables) which usually register the ECG discontinuously. Because wearables, e.g. smartphones, are basically ubiquitously available, they may be used for ECG monitoring. selleckchem This paper comments on the use of implantables and wearables for the detection of atrial fibrillation and the documentation of symptomatic arrhythmias in syncope or palpitations.
To review the epidemiology, pathogenesis, diagnosis using emerging imaging modalities, management strategy, and prevention of recurrent spontaneous coronary artery dissection (SCAD) and provide a more extensive review of the current data.

SCAD generally affects women without conventional cardiovascular risk factors. Diagnosis and management of SCAD are challenging due to heterogeneity, undefined mechanisms, differing phenotypes, and a lack of strong clinical evidence. After reviewing the current evidence to date, we recommend conservative management, including cardiac rehabilitation for SCAD with low-risk features, while coronary revascularization should be considered in SCAD with high-risk features. Non-invasive imaging (e.g., coronary computed tomography angiography, cardiac magnetic resonance, myocardial perfusion imaging) should be considered in diagnosing specific SCAD phenotypes. The standard guideline-based medical therapy for acute coronary syndrome, in the absence of contraindications, should be considered along with appropriate SCAD phenotypes.
