In this work, we propose a fluorescence method for the simultaneous detection of glutathione (GSH) and histidine (His) based on the Cu(ii)-thiamine (Cu(ii)-TH) system. It is well established that non-fluorescent thiamine (TH) can be oxidized by Cu(ii) to generate fluorescent thiochrome (TC) under alkaline conditions. The introduction of GSH and His can inhibit the oxidation of TH by Cu(ii) due to the strong affinity between Cu(ii) and GSH or His. With this strategy, the detection limit for GSH and His is 10.5 nM and 26.4 nM, respectively. The developed method shows several obvious advantages: (1) simplicity in design and operation without the utilization of fluorescent nanomaterials or probes; (2) time-saving detection process since all the detection process is completed within 15 min; (3) cost-effectiveness by using TH as the fluorescent substrate; and (4) higher sensitivity and good selectivity. Therefore, it shows great potential in biosensing fields.

Background: Due to the complex structure and variable microenvironment in the progression of bladder cancer, the efficacy of traditional treatment methods such as surgery and chemotherapy is limited. Tumor residual, recurrence and metastasis are still difficult to treat. The integration of diagnosis and treatment based on nanoparticles can offer the potential for precise tumor localization and real-time therapeutic monitoring.

Metabolomics is a type of laboratory science used to understand the cellular and metabolic defects in any disease process. It comprehensively identifies endogenous and exogenous low-molecular-weight (<1 kDa) molecules or metabolites in a high-throughput manner. Mass spectrometry-based methods are used for metabolomics which can be targeted and non-targeted.

Maize (Zea mays L.) is one of the world's most widely cultivated and economically important cereal crop, serving as a staple food and feed source in over 170 countries. However, its global productivity is threatened by late wilt disease (LWD), a disease caused by Magnaporthiopsis maydis, that spreads through soil and seeds and can cause severe yield losses.

Ethnopharmacological Relevance: Fujian Tablet (FJT), a traditional Chinese herbal compound formulation developed under the theoretical framework of "nourishing the liver and kidney, replenishing essence and marrow" , has been clinically applied for over two decades to treat post-stroke neurological deficits. Preliminary studies demonstrated its efficacy in improving motor function and promoting cervical spinal cord neuroaxonal growth in a middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO) rat model. Building upon these findings, this study integrates metabolomic evidence of Foxo3a-GPX4 axis activation to systematically elucidate Fujian Tablet's neurorestorative mechanisms through three interconnected pathways: regulation of ferroptosis, promotion of oligodendrocyte proliferation, and remyelination.

Current colorimetric sensing arrays for antioxidant detection often struggle with discrimination due to cross-reactive signals from individual nanozymes. These signals are typically modulated by external factors such as pH or chromogenic substrates, offering limited kinetic and mechanistic diversity. To overcome this, we present a novel triple-channel colorimetric sensing array utilizing two distinct single-atom nanozymes (Cu SA and Fe SA) and one dual-atom nanozyme (CuFe DA).
