Melatonin Ameliorates Valproic Acid‐Induced Neurogenesis Impairment: The Role of Oxidative Stress in Adult RatsOxidative Medicine and Cellular Longevity - Tập 2021 Số 1 - 2021
Anusara Aranarochana, Apiwat Sirichoat, Wanassanun Pannangrong, Peter Wigmore, Jariya Umka Welbat
Background. Valproic acid (anticonvulsant medication) has been found to inhibit histone deacetylase activity and suppress hippocampal neurogenesis, which causes memory impairment in both humans and rodents. The neurohormone melatonin, which regulates mammalian seasonal and circadian physiology, has recently been shown to have neuroprotective properties, counterac...... hiện toàn bộ
Cross Talk of Proteostasis and Mitostasis in Cellular Homeodynamics, Ageing, and DiseaseOxidative Medicine and Cellular Longevity - Tập 2016 Số 1 - 2016
Sentiljana Gumeni, Ioannis P. Trougakos
Mitochondria are highly dynamic organelles that provide essential metabolic functions and represent the major bioenergetic hub of eukaryotic cell. Therefore, maintenance of mitochondria activity is necessary for the proper cellular function and survival. To this end, several mechanisms that act at different levels and time points have been developed to ensure mitochondria quality control. ...... hiện toàn bộ
The Protective Effects of Melatonin on Aluminum-Induced Hepatotoxicity and Nephrotoxicity in RatsOxidative Medicine and Cellular Longevity - Tập 2020 - Trang 1-12 - 2020

Aluminum (Al) is a ubiquitous element with known toxicity for both humans and animals. Herein, we aimed to investigate the potential role of melatonin (MEL) in hepatotoxicity and nephrotoxicity following aluminum chloride (AlCl3) treatment in rats. Adult male rats were treated with AlCl3 (34 mg/kg bwt) for eight weeks. Exposure to AlCl3 enhanced the serum activities of the liver transamina...... hiện toàn bộ
Antioxidant and Vasodilator Activity of Ugni molinae Turcz. (Murtilla) and Its Modulatory Mechanism in Hypotensive ResponseOxidative Medicine and Cellular Longevity - Tập 2016 Số 1 - 2016

Hypertension is a systemic condition with high morbidity and mortality rates worldwide, which poses an increased risk for cardiovascular diseases. In this study, we demonstrated the antioxidant and vasodilator activity of Ugni molinae Turcz. (Murtilla) fruit, a berry native to Chile and proposed models to explain its modulatory mechanism in hypotensive response. ...... hiện toàn bộ
Does the Interdependence between Oxidative Stress and Inflammation Explain the Antioxidant Paradox?Oxidative Medicine and Cellular Longevity - Tập 2016 Số 1 - 2016
Subrata Kumar Biswas
Oxidative stress has been implicated in many chronic diseases. However, antioxidant trials are so far largely unsuccessful as a preventive or curative measure. Chronic low‐grade inflammatory process, on the other hand, plays a central role in the pathogenesis of a number of chronic diseases. Oxidative stress and inflammation are closely related pathophysiological processes, one of which ca...... hiện toàn bộ
The Signaling of Cellular Senescence in Diabetic NephropathyOxidative Medicine and Cellular Longevity - Tập 2019 - Trang 1-16 - 2019
Yabing Xiong, Lili Zhou
Diabetic nephropathy is the leading cause of chronic kidney disease (CKD) in western countries. Notably, it has a rapidly rising prevalence in China. The patients, commonly complicated with cardiovascular diseases and neurologic disorders, are at high risk to progress into end-stage renal disease (ESRD) and death. However, the pathogenic mechanisms of diabetic nephropathy have not been det...... hiện toàn bộ
Metforminium Decavanadate as a Potential Metallopharmaceutical Drug for the Treatment of Diabetes MellitusOxidative Medicine and Cellular Longevity - Tập 2016 Số 1 - 2016

New potential drugs based on vanadium are being developed as possible treatments for diabetes mellitus (DM) and its complications. In this regard, our working group developed metforminium decavanadate (MetfDeca), a compound with hypoglycemic and hypolipidemic properties. MetfDeca was evaluated in models of type 1 and type 2 diabetes mellitus, on male Wistar rats. Alloxan‐induction was empl...... hiện toàn bộ
Decavanadate Toxicology and Pharmacological Activities: V10 or V1, Both or None?Oxidative Medicine and Cellular Longevity - Tập 2016 Số 1 - 2016
Manuel Aureliano
This review covers recent advances in the understanding of decavanadate toxicology and pharmacological applications. Toxicological in vivo studies point out that V10 induces several changes in several oxidative stress parameters, different from the ones observed for vanadate (V1). In in vitro st...... hiện toàn bộ
Tribulus terrestris Protects against Male Reproductive Damage Induced by Cyclophosphamide in MiceOxidative Medicine and Cellular Longevity - Tập 2018 Số 1 - 2018

Tribulus terrestris (TT) has been considered as a potential stimulator of testosterone production, which has been related with steroidal saponins prevailing in this plant. Cyclophosphamide (CP) is the most commonly used anticancer and immunosuppressant drug, which causes several toxic effects, especially on the reproductive system. Patients who need to use CP the...... hiện toàn bộ
