Protective Effect of Oligonol on Dimethylnitrosamine-Induced Liver Fibrosis in Rats via the JNK/NF-κB and PI3K/Akt/Nrf2 Signaling Pathways.

Antioxidants (Basel, Switzerland)

Lee C, Bak J, Yoon S, Moon JO.

Oligonol is a low molecular weight polyphenol product derived from lychee fruit by a manufacturing process. We investigated oligonol's anti-fibrotic effect and the underlying mechanism in dimethylnitrosamine (DMN)-induced chronic liver damage in male Sprague-Dawley rats. Oral administration of oligonol...

Surfactant protein A (SP-A) is well-known for its protective role in pulmonary immunity. Previous studies from our group have shown that SP-A mediates eosinophil activities, including degranulation and apoptosis. In order to identify potential binding partners on eosinophils for...

The place of vericiguat in the landscape of treatment for heart failure with reduced ejection fraction.

Heart failure reviews

Aimo A, Castiglione V, Vergaro G, Panichella G, Senni M, Lombardi CM, Emdin M.

Heart Fail Rev. 2021 Jul 21; doi: 10.1007/s10741-021-10146-1. Epub 2021 Jul 21.

The significant morbidity and mortality associated with heart failure with reduced (HFrEF) or preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) justify the search for novel therapeutic agents. The nitric oxide (NO)-soluble guanylate cyclase (sGC)-cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP) pathway plays an important role...

Violet LED induces vasodilation in rat aortic rings by soluble guanylate cyclase-dependent mechanism and increases SOD activity.

We found several studies that have used the aortic rings as an experimental model, mainly for the testing of new drugs or new therapies that try to reverse or prevent endothelial dysfunction or characterize its mechanism of action in...

Pathogenesis of aortic stenosis: not just a matter of wear and tear.

Aortic valve stenosis (AS) is the commonest form of valvular heart disease in the Western world. Its prevalence increases exponentially with age and it is present in 2-7% of all patients over 65 years of age. In view of...

Role of human glutathione transferases in biotransformation of the nitric oxide prodrug JS-K.

Marine organisms are among the prominent and abundant sources of 1-O-alkyl-sn-glycerols, including chimyl alcohol (CA), batyl alcohol and selachyl alcohol. These biologically active compounds are precursors in plasmalogen and phospholipid biosynthesis, which are the main irreplaceable components of cell...
