Light exposure can affect embryonic development through a direct toxic effect on the embryo via the generation of reactive oxygen species. In a previous study, we demonstrated the positive effect of improved light-protected embryo culture conditions implemented in our laboratory. This study aimed to investigate the changes in human embryo development under light protection during the conventional in vitro fertilization (IVF) and intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI). Materials and Methods: We tested the potential beneficial effect of light filters to reduce the risk of toxic effects of light. IVF outcomes were compared between two experimental conditions, light protection with red light filters versus no light protection as a control. Results: Blastocyst development rate in IVF was significantly higher in the light-protected group than in the group treated under conventional conditions (46.6 vs. 26.7%). In the case of ICSI, we obtained a similar result (44.5 vs. 31.6%). The rate of cryopreservation with at least one embryo was higher in the light-protected phase (32.8%) than in the conventionally manipulated phase (26.8%). The abortion rate was also significantly lower during the light-protected period in IVF, resulting in a higher live birth rate. Conclusions: The implementation of light protection to reduce the embryotoxic wavelengths of light in IVF centers may improve the blastocyst development rate and embryo quality while maintaining embryo safety.}, keywords = {blastocyst; abortion; intracytoplasmic sperm injection; In vitro fertilization; Live birth rate; light protection}, year = {2024}, eissn = {1423-0151}, orcid-numbers = {Herczeg, Róbert/0000-0002-5903-0082; Kovács, L.

The method employs a bifilar phenomenon in which one part of the pulsed current flows via the plasma column while the other part runs in the opposite direction via the closely placed external conductor. The electromagnetic fields formed by the plasma and return conductor are adjusted by lowering the distance between them to neutralize the magnetic field of the bifilar. Because the net transient magnetic field is drastically reduced, the plasma-conductor mutual inductance is near zero during current rise and decay. The inductance-free (L ∼ 2 nH) 35 cm-long Z pinches in a 3.1 mm-diameter argon-filled alumina capillary with current rise and decay times of 15 ns, dI/dt > 1012 A/s, and amplitudes up to 17 kA were predicted, realized, and verified to be suitable for pumping soft x-ray Ar+8 lasers. Without the bifilar phenomenon, the 35 cm Z pinches obey a 200 nH inductance that restricts the rise and decay durations of currents to 150 ns. The 35 cm Z pinches with 2 nH inductance generated 46.9 nm laser pulses with up to 4 μJ of energy and a beam divergence of 2 mrad at a low operating voltage of 35–45 kV, compared to 0.1–0.8 MV for similar lasers. The bifilar method could find applications in many research and technological fields, where the rise and decay times of discharge currents play a key role.}, year = {2024}, eissn = {2158-3226}, orcid-numbers = {Fekete, Balázs/0009-0005-0672-3247; Shapolov, A.

They play important roles in nociception, pain processing and their chanellopathies are associated with the development of several pathological conditions. They are located in cholesterol- and sphingolipid-rich membrane lipid raft regions serving as platforms to modulate their activations. We demonstrated earlier that disruption of these lipid rafts leads to decreased TRP channel activation and exerts analgesic effects. Cyclodextrins are macrocyclic molecules able to form host-guest complexes with cholesterol and deplete it from the membrane lipid rafts. The aim of this study was to investigate 8 structurally different (methylated and non-methylated) CD derivatives on cell viability, mitochondrial membrane potential, membrane composition and activation abilities of the TRPV1 and TRPA1 channels. We showed that non-methylated derivatives have preferable safety profiles compared to methylated ones. Furthermore, methylated derivatives reduced mitochondrial membrane potential. However, all investigated derivatives influence the ordered cell membrane structure depleting membrane cholesterol and inhibit the TRPV1 agonist capsaicin- and the TRPA1 agonist allyl isothiocyanate-induced Ca 2+− influx. This mechanism of action might provide novel perspectives for the development of peripherally acting analgesics via indirectly decreasing the generation and transmission of nociceptive signals.}, year = {2024}, eissn = {2296-634X}, orcid-numbers = {Szőcs, Levente/0000-0002-9521-3628} } @article{MTMT:34596731, title = {Three-photon and four-photon absorption in lithium niobate measured by the Z-scan technique}, url = {https://m2.mtmt.hu/api/publication/34596731}, author = {Benabdelghani, Imene and Tóth, György and Krizsán, Gergő and Bazsó, Gábor and Szaller, Zsuzsanna and Mbithi, Nelson and Rácz, Péter and Dombi, Péter and Polónyi, Gyula and Hebling, János}, doi = {10.1364/OE.505995}, journal-iso = {OPT EXPRESS}, journal = {OPTICS EXPRESS}, volume = {32}, unique-id = {34596731}, issn = {1094-4087}, abstract = {Open-aperture Z-scan measurements have been carried out to investigate the three-photon (3 PA) and four-photon absorption (4 PA) coefficients at 800 nm and 1030 nm wavelengths, respectively in congruent and stoichiometric lithium niobate (cLN, sLN) with different concentrations of Mg doping. The laser pulse duration at the two wavelengths were 40 and 190 fs. The peak intensity inside the crystals varied between approximately 110 and 550 GW/cm 2 . The 3 PA and 4 PA coefficients were evaluated using a theoretical model and the results suggest that their minima are at or around the Mg doping level corresponding to the threshold for suppressing photo-refraction for both cLN and sLN. This result can be attributed to the contribution of crystal defects to the 3 PA and 4 PA processes. Furthermore, the 4 PA at 1030 nm exhibited greater nonlinear absorption than the 3 PA at 800 nm under the same intensity level. Possible reasons for this unexpected behavior are discussed. Overall, comparing the 3 PA and 4 PA values of these crystals will enable for selection of the optimum composition of LN crystal for efficient THz generation and for other nonlinear optical processes requiring high pump intensities.}, year = {2024}, pages = {7030-7043}, orcid-numbers = {Rácz, Péter/0000-0001-5099-1031; Dombi, Péter/0000-0002-0736-3512} } @article{MTMT:34563178, title = {Hé, elektron, most röpül a kismadár!.
