Abstract
Using tumors containing high concentrations of hydrogen peroxide to design nanozymes is a new and effective strategy, and vanadium-based nanomaterials receive increasing attention. In this paper, four kinds of vanadium oxide nanozymes with different valences of vanadium are synthesized by a simple method to verify the effect of valence on enzyme activity. Vanadium oxide nanozyme-III (Vnps-III) with a low valence of vanadium (V4+) exhibits good peroxidase (POD) and oxidase (OXD) activities, which can effectively produce reactive oxygen species (ROS) in the tumor microenvironment for tumor treatment. In addition, Vnps-III can also consume glutathione (GSH) to reduce ROS consumption. Vanadium oxide nanozyme-I (Vnps-I) containing a high valence of vanadium (V5+) has catalase (CAT) activity, which can catalyze hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) into oxygen (O2), which is beneficial to alleviate the hypoxic environment of solid tumors. Finally, a vanadium oxide nanozyme with both trienzyme simulation activity and GSH consumption ability was screened out by adjusting the ratio of V4+ to V5+ in vanadium oxide nanozymes. In cell and animal experiments, we successfully demonstrate that vanadium oxide nanozymes have excellent antitumor ability and high safety, which may bring great potential for clinical cancer treatment.

Abstract
Reactive oxygen species (ROS) are generated and consumed in living organism for normal metabolism. Paradoxically, the overproduction and/or mismanagement of ROS have been involved in pathogenesis and progression of various human diseases. Here, we reported a two-dimensional (2D) vanadium carbide (V2C) MXene nanoenzyme (MXenzyme) that can mimic up to six naturally-occurring enzymes, including superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase (CAT), peroxidase (POD), glutathione peroxidase (GPx), thiol peroxidase (TPx) and haloperoxidase (HPO). Based on these enzyme-mimicking properties, the constructed 2D V2C MXenzyme not only possesses high biocompatibility but also exhibits robust in vitro cytoprotection against oxidative stress. Importantly, 2D V2C MXenzyme rebuilds the redox homeostasis without perturbing the endogenous antioxidant status and relieves ROS-induced damage with benign in vivo therapeutic effects, as demonstrated in both inflammation and neurodegeneration animal models. These findings open an avenue to enable the use of MXenzyme as a remedial nanoplatform to treat ROS-mediated inflammatory and neurodegenerative diseases.

Abstract
This review article is a comprehensive report on vanadium oxides which are interesting materials for environmental applications. Therefore, a general overview of vanadium and its related oxides are presented in the first two parts. Afterwards, the physical properties of binary and ternary vanadium oxides in single and mixed valence states are described such as their structural, optical, and electronic properties. Finally, the use of these vanadium oxides in photochemical processes for environmental applications is detailed, especially for the production of hydrogen by water splitting and the degradation of organic pollutants in water using photocatalytic and photo-Fenton processes. The scientific aim of such a review is to bring a comprehensive tool to understand the photochemical processes triggered by vanadium oxide based materials where the photo-induced properties are thoroughly discussed based on the detailed description of their intrinsic properties.

Abstract
Vanadium is a metal of high physiological, environmental and industrial importance. However, vanadium-induced oxidative stress can reduce the egg quality of poultry, and be potentially harmful to humans, and the underlying mechanism is not clear. In this study, we investigated the underlying relationship between the oxidant-sensitive mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) signaling pathway and vanadium-induced oxidative stress in oviduct magnum epithelial (OME) cells. Cultured OME cells were treated with 100 μmol L-1 vanadium and/or MAPK inhibitors [P38 MAPK inhibitor, SB203580; extracellular regulated protein kinase 1 and 2 (ERK1/2) inhibitor, U0126; c-JUN N-terminal kinases (JNK) inhibitor, SP600125]. Cell viability, apoptosis, and generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) were assessed using flow cytometry. The expression of oxidative stress-related genes and their proteins was measured by reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction and western blotting. Vanadium treatment reduced cell viability, whereas pretreated OME cells with SB203580 and U0126 prevented the reducing effect of vanadium on cell viability (P < 0.05). Likewise, MAPK inhibitors effectively suppressed vanadium-induced apoptosis and ROS generation (P < 0.05). In the OME cells treated with vanadium, SB203580 (P < 0.05) and SP600125 (P = 0.08) increased catalase activity by 89.3% and 55.3%; SB203580 and U0126 increased (P < 0.05) glutathione peroxidase activity by 44.9% and 51.1%, respectively. Incubation of OME cells with MAPK inhibitors also prevents malondialdehyde concentration increase and lactic dehydrogenase activity decrease in response to vanadium (P < 0.05). Vanadium downregulated P38, ERK1/2, JNK, Nrf2, sMaf, GCLC, NQO1 and HO-1 mRNA expression (P < 0.05). In contrast, inhibition of JNK with SP600125 upregulated P38, ERK1/2, JNK, Nrf2, GCLC and HO-1 mRNA expression (P < 0.05); inhibition of P38 with SB203580 upregulated JNK, NQO1 and HO-1 mRNA expression (P < 0.05); and inhibition of ERK1/2 with U0126 upregulated ERK1/2, GCLC and HO-1 mRNA expression (P < 0.05). Moreover, phosphorylation of P38, ERK1/2, JNK, and Nrf2 proteins was enhanced by V incubation; however, SP600125 blocked the phosphorylation of these proteins, whereas SB203580 blocked the phosphorylation of P38 and Nrf2. These results indicate that vanadium inducing oxidative stress in OME cells might be, at least, associated with the phosphorylation of the P38MAPK/JNK-Nrf2 pathway, which reduces the expression of phase II detoxifying enzymes.

Vanadium Compounds as PTP Inhibitors. Molecules 2017; 22:molecules22122269.

Abstract
Phosphotyrosine signaling is regulated by the opposing actions of protein tyrosine kinases (PTKs) and protein tyrosine phosphatases (PTPs). Here we discuss the potential of vanadium derivatives as PTP enzyme inhibitors and metallotherapeutics. We describe how vanadate in the V oxidized state is thought to inhibit PTPs, thus acting as a pan-inhibitor of this enzyme superfamily. We discuss recent developments in the biological and biochemical actions of more complex vanadium derivatives, including decavanadate and in particular the growing number of oxidovanadium compounds with organic ligands. Pre-clinical studies involving these compounds are discussed in the anti-diabetic and anti-cancer contexts. Although in many cases PTP inhibition has been implicated, it is also clear that many such compounds have further biochemical effects in cells. There also remain concerns surrounding off-target toxicities and long-term use of vanadium compounds in vivo in humans, hindering their progress through clinical trials. Despite these current misgivings, interest in these chemicals continues and many believe they could still have therapeutic potential. If so, we argue that this field would benefit from greater focus on improving the delivery and tissue targeting of vanadium compounds in order to minimize off-target toxicities. This may then harness their full therapeutic potential.

Abstract
The aim of the study was to assess the protective effect of (-)-epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG), a flavonoid abundant in green tea, against ammonium metavanadate (AMV)-induced oxidative stress in male Wistar rats. Four groups of animals have been used, a control group and three test groups. In the first test group, AMV was intra-peritoneally (i.p) injected daily (5 mg/kg body weight for five consecutive days). The second test group of animals was also injected daily with EGCG (5 mg/kg body weight) during the same period. However, the third test group was i.p. injected with both AMV and EGCG (5 mg/kg body weight for five consecutive days). When given alone, AMV induced an oxidative stress evidenced by an increase of lipid peroxidation levels (expressed as TBARS concentration) in kidney. In these animals, activities of superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase (CAT), and glutathione peroxidase (GPX) were significantly decreased, suggesting significant reduction of the antioxidant defense system at the cell level. Kidney histological sections, showed glomerular hypertrophy and tubular dilatation. In AMV-treated animals receiving EGCG, the oxidative stress was much less pronounced and activities of antioxidant enzymes were kept close to control values. Histopathological changes were less prominent. Our results confirm that green tea and other sources of flavonoids might confer a strong protection against ammonium metavanadate-induced oxidative stress.

Abstract
Major transformations in the environmental composition are principally attributable to the combustion of fuels by automobiles. Motorized gasoline-powered two-stroke auto-rickshaws (TSA) and compressed natural gas (CNG)-powered four-stroke auto-rickshaws (FSA) are potential source of air pollution in south Asia and produce toxic amount of particulate matter (PM) to the environment. In this study, we attempted to characterize elemental pollutants from the PM of TSA and FSA using proton-induced X-ray emission (PIXE) analysis. The observations of the existing investigation recognized significant increase in Al (P < 0.05), P (P < 0.01), and Zn (P < 0.01) from the PM samples of FSA. In addition, the concentrations of Cu, Fe, K, Mg, Na and S were also observed exceeding the recommended National Institute for Environmental Studies limits. On the contrary, increased concentration of Sr and V were observed in the PM samples from TSA. It is generally believed that FSA generates smaller amount of PM but data obtained from FSA are clearly describing that emissions from FSA comprised potentially more toxic substances than TSA. The current research is specific to metropolitan population and has evidently revealed an inconsistent burden of exposure to air pollutants engendered by FSA in urban communities, which could lead to the disruption of several biological activities and may cause severe damage to entire ecological system.

Abstract
Vanadium is known for its antitumorigenicity. Poised to investigate the impact of well-defined forms of vanadium on processes and specific biomolecules (oncogenes-proteins) involved in cancer cell physiology, a novel ternary V(V)-peroxido-betaine compound was employed in experiments targeting cell viability, apoptosis, reactive oxygen species (ROS) production, H-ras signaling, and matrix metalloproteinase-2 (MMP-2) expression in human breast cancer epithelial and lung adenocarcinoma cells. The results reveal that vanadium imparts a significant decrease in cancer cell viability, reducing H-ras and MMP-2 expression by increasing ROS-mediated apoptosis, distinctly emphasizing the nature, structure and properties of ternary ligands on vanadium anti-tumor activity and its future potential as a metallodrug.

Abstract
Cytotoxic and antitumor activity of the biligand vanadyl derivative of L-malic acid (bis(L-malato)oxovanadium(IV) (VO(mal) ) was investigated in comparison with inorganic vanadium(IV) compound - vanadyl sulfate (VOSO ) and also with oxovanadium monocomplex with L-malic acid (VO(mal)) and vanadyl biscomplex with acetylacetonate. In this purpose the effect of vanadyl compounds on growth of normal human skin fibroblasts and tumor cells of different lines: mouse fibrosarcoma (L929), rat pheochromocytome (PC12), human liver carcinoma (HepG2), virus transformated mouse fibroblast (NIN 3T3), virus transformated cells of human kidney (293) were investigated. The results showed that VO(mal) was not toxic for normal human skin fibroblasts but considerably inhibited growth of cancer cells in culture. Cytotoxic antitumor effect of vanadium complexes was found to be dependent оn incubation time and concentration and on type of cells and nature of ligands of the central group of the complex (VO2+). These studies provide evidence that VO(mal) may be considered as a potential antitumor agent due to its low toxicity in non-tumor cells and significant anticancer activity.

Abstract
The anti-cancer activity of vanadium and fish oil has been shown in a large number of studies. This study was undertaken to analyze the combined effect of vanadium and fish oil on 7,12-dimethylbenz(α)anthracene (DMBA)-induced mammary carcinogenesis in female Sprague-Dawley rats. The whole experiment was divided into three parts: (1) DNA strand breaks study, (2) morphological analysis, and (3) histological and immunohistochemical study. Rats were treated with DMBA (0.5 mg/0.2 ml corn oil/100 g body weight) by a tail vein injection. Rats received vanadium (w/v) as ammonium monovanadate at a concentration of 0.5 ppm (4.27 µmol/L) in the drinking water and given ad libitum and/or fish oil (0.5 ml/day/rat) by oral gavage. Histology, morphology, DNA strand breaks, cell proliferation, and apoptosis of the mammary tissue were assessed in this study. Treatment with vanadium or fish oil alone significantly reduced the DNA strand breaks, palpable mammary tumors, tumor multiplicity, and cell proliferation but the maximum protection effect was found in the group that received both vanadium and fish oil and the combination treatment offered an additive effect (P < 0.05). Furthermore, vanadium and fish oil significantly increased the TUNEL-positive apoptotic cells (P < 0.05) but the increase was maximal with combination treatment and had an additive effect. These results affirm the benefits of administration of vanadium and fish oil in the prevention of rat mammary carcinogenesis which was associated with reduced DNA strand breaks, palpable mammary tumors and cell proliferation and increased TUNEL-positive apoptotic cells.

Abstract
This paper presents an overview of the global extent of naturally occurring toxic metals in groundwater. Adverse health effects attributed to the toxic metals most commonly found in groundwater are reviewed, as well as chemical, biochemical, and physiological interactions between these metals. Synergistic and antagonistic effects that have been reported between the toxic metals found in groundwater and the dietary trace elements are highlighted, and common behavioural, cultural, and dietary practices that are likely to significantly modify health risks due to use of metal-contaminated groundwater are reviewed. Methods for analytical testing of samples containing multiple metals are discussed, with special attention to analytical interferences between metals and reagents. An overview is presented of approaches to providing safe water when groundwater contains multiple metallic toxins.

Abstract
Vanadium, a dietary micronutrient, is yet to be established as an essential part of the human diet. Over the past century, several biological effects of vanadium, such as insulin-mimetic action as well as amelioration of hyperlipidemia and hypertension, have been discovered. This transition element is known to influence a battery of enzymatic systems, namely phosphatases, ATPases, peroxidases, ribonucleases, protein kinases and oxidoreductases. Multiple biochemical and molecular actions of vanadium have been implicated in its inhibitory effects on various tumor cells of human origin. Successful in vitro studies over the past few decades have advanced the anticancer research on vanadium into the preclinical stage. Vanadium in several animal cancer models provides protection against all stages of carcinogenesis--initiation, promotion, and progression. This review focuses on the current advances in cancer prevention and treatment as well as early detection by vanadium compounds in preclinical animal models while pointing to possible mechanisms of such diverse beneficial effects. Clinical pharmacokinetic and potential toxicity studies on vanadium are also highlighted in this review. Supporting and challenging evidence as well as future directions of vanadium research exploring the possibility of using this dietary agent for detection, prevention and treatment of human cancers are critically discussed.

Abstract
Vanadium is a trace element widely distributed in the environment. In vertebrates it is mainly stored in bone tissue. The unique cellular environment in the bone and the variety of interactions that mediate cancer metastasis determine that certain types of cancer, such as breast and prostate cancer, preferentially metastize in the skeleton. Since this effect usually signifies serious morbidity and grave prognosis there is an increasing interest in the development of new treatments for this pathology. The present work shows that vanadium complexes can inhibit some parameters related to cancer metastasis such as cell adhesion, migration and clonogenicity. We have also investigated the role of protein kinase A in these processes.

Abstract
In the present study, the authors evaluated the anticancer mechanism of vanadium, a dietary micronutrient and an important pharmacological agent, on a defined model of chemically induced rat mammary carcinogenesis in vivo and on human breast cancer cell line MCF7 in vitro. Female Sprague-Dawley rats were treated with 7,12-dimethylbenz(alpha)anthracene (0.5 mg/100 g body weight) by a single tail vein injection in an oil emulsion to induce mammary preneoplasia. Vanadium (ammonium monovanadate) at a concentration of 0.5 ppm (4.27 micromol/l) was supplemented in drinking water and given ad libitum to the experimental groups for 24 weeks. Histological finding showed substantial repair of hyperplastic lesions. There was a significant reduction in incidence, multiplicity (34%, p < 0.01), size of palpable mammary tumors and delay in mean latency period of tumor appearance. Immunohistochemical analysis in vivo indicated a decrease in cell proliferation (24.68% p < 0.05) and an increase among the TUNEL-positive apoptotic cells along with strong expressions of p53 and Bax, and downregulation of Bcl2 proteins in the mammary tissue of vanadium-treated animals. Further, MCF7 cells were cultured in minimal essential medium and were treated with 100, 175 and 250 microM of vanadium (ammonium monovanadate) for 36 hr. Exposure of MCF7 cells to vanadium led to induction of apoptosis in a dose-dependent manner. It was found further that vanadium treatment brought about a prominent cell cycle arrest and chromosomal condensation, leading to apoptosis (42.62%, p < 0.05). Results of both the in vivo and in vitro study demonstrate that vanadium has the potential to be developed into an anti-breast cancer drug in the near future.
