3,3′-DIINDOLYLMETHANE PROTECTS CARDIOMYOCYTES FROM LPS-INDUCED INFLAMMATORY RESPONSE AND APOPTOSIS

As such, the aim of this study was to compare the prophylactic and therapeutic effects of three broad spec- trum anti-inflammatory compounds in acute and chronic CSE models, respectively. We focused on three compounds with distinct mechanisms of action - a glu- cocorticoid (bude[r]

Although we cannot rule out the possibility that an uni- dentified member of the PR-1 gene family exists in apple, which is up-regulated during pathogen interactions, a recent report by Gau et al. [23] seems to support o[r]

Okay, so we ve been talking about some problemes faced by biologists when they try to

Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a systemic inflammatory disease that causes chronic inflammation of the joints. Analysis of genetic variants offers promise for guiding treatment and improving outcomes in RA. High-mobility group box protein 1 (HMGB1) is a ubiquitous nuclear protein found in all mammal e[r]

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the anti-inflammatory and the bronchodilator effects of Dinh Suyen P/H extract in experimental animals. The anti-inflammatory activity of Dinh Suyen P/H extract was evaluated in an induced peritoneal inflammation model in rats and amiant-induced granuloma mo[r]

Virtually all prostate cancer deaths occur due to obtaining the castration-resistant phenotype after prostate cancer cells escaped from apoptosis and/or growth suppression initially induced by androgen receptor blockade. TNF-related apoptosis-inducing ligand (TRAIL) was an attractive cancer therapeu[r]

Beside these anatomical differences, the basic histological and ultrastructural characteristics of PV cardiomyocytes are very similar in rodents and man. In both, working myocytes surround PVs in intimate association with the endothelium or separated from it by a lay[r]

Previous studies showed sanguinarine induced apoptosis in CRC cells but did not define the underlying mechanisms. The purpose of this work was to determine the in vivo and in vitro effects of sanguinarine on CRC tumors and to elucidate the mechanism in regulating the intrinsic apoptosis.

Unexpectedly, we observed that Hsp70 downregulation pro- tected RA FLSs from NO-induced apoptosis. This finding sug- gests that Hsp70 may be a pro-apoptotic protein in RA FLSs. Our results indicate that hsp70 interferes with Akt phosphor- ylation by binding an upstream protein o[r]

TLR3 is a member of the TLR family that recognizes double-stranded RNA, which is a molecular pattern pro- duced by many viruses at some point in their infectious cycle [17]. TLR3 is expressed on endosomes of dendritic cells, but has been reported on the cell surface as well as in endos[r]

The effects of p30 in modulation of the cell cycle contrast to the influence of HTLV-1 Tax on cell cycle regulation. We have recently demonstrated that p30 balances and coun- teracts the influence of Tax [26]. Tax has been reported to interact directly with Chk-2 resulting in attenuation of D[r]
