Background Metabolic syndrome (MetS) is an important contributor to both type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD). Although MetS affects one third of American adults, its pathogenesis remains to be elucidated. Tyramine, a derivative of tyrosine, has been
Inflammation is induced by the expression of cyclooxygenase‑2 (COX‑2), which is an important mediator of chronic inflammatory diseases, such as rheumatoid arthritis, asthma and inflammatory bowel disease. Tribulus terrestris (T. terrestris) is known to have a beneficial effect on inflammatory
Riparin II (RipII), an alkamide isolated from the green fruit of Aniba riparia, was tested in the various animal models of inflammation to investigate its anti-inflammatory activity. Male Wistar rats (180-240g) were treated with RipII by gavage at doses 25 or 50mg/kg, before initiating the
Lycii Cortex, a popular herb medicine in traditional Chinese medicine, is used to treat different inflammation-related diseases. The aim of our work is to find the key constituents inhibiting NF-kappaB, a key regulator of inflammation. In the investigations of cell-based in vitro assays of extracts,
Wolfberry or Goji berry, the fruit of Lycium barbarum, exhibits health-promoting properties that leads to an extensive study of their active components. We synthesized a set of hydroxycinnamic acid amide (HCCA) compounds, including trans-caffeic acid, trans-ferulic acid, and
To improve the understanding of the biological functions and pharmacology of heparin and dermatan sulfate, low-molecular-weight heparin (LMWH) and low-molecular-weight dermatan sulfate (LMWDS) were labeled with tyramine (T) by covalently linking T to the terminal residue of 2,5-anhydromannose (or
1. None of the salts tested produce a marked inflammation in vivo in concentrations under 10 per cent. Potassium salts and the different citrates produced atypical inflammatory reactions in mice, but not in frogs. There was no true inflammation, however, characterized by blood vessel changes,
Glitazones are peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma (PPARγ) agonists widely used as antidiabetic drugs also known as thiazolidinediones. Most of them exert other effects such as anti-inflammatory actions via mechanisms supposed to be independent from PPARγ activation (e.g., decreased
Biogenic amines (BA) are a broad group of biologically active substances, the presence of which in the human body can provide important diagnostic information for many various pathologies, including chronic inflammation. In this work, a capillary electrophoresis (CE) hyphenated with tandem mass
Heightened monoamine oxidase (MAO) and inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) activity can contribute to oxidative stress, the formation of active neurotoxins, and associated neurodegenerative diseases of the brain. Although these enzymes co-exist within astrocytes, there has been little research
BACKGROUND
Endothelial cell injury mediated by activated polymorphonuclear leucocytes (PMN) occurs during inflammation or reperfusion after brain ischemia. Protein oxidation caused by activated PMN may lead to functional disturbances, degeneration and death of the endothelial cells. The aim of this
Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a chronic inflammatory disease characterized by joint synovial inflammation, as well as cartilage and bone tissue destruction. Current strategies for the treatment of RA can reduce joint inflammation, but the treatment options still represent stability concerns since
Our previous study revealed that fish oil (FO) pre-treatment could improve the lipopolysaccharides (LPS)-induced depressive-like behavior in mice but did not alter the expression of stress hormones associated with the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis. The exact mechanisms underlying the
1. Wright's method for the study of chemotaxis of leucocytes in vitro, slightly modified, has been found to be most satisfactory in the estimation of the degree of chemotaxis of various substances, because it is possible to make an exact quantitative determination of the leucocytes that have
We postulate that immobilization of tyramine-substituted hyaluronan (THA) into an extracellular matrix (ECM) scaffold may be a strategy to promote an anti-inflammatory response to the ECM. Further, we posit that the implantation site could influence the inflammatory response and remodeling of an ECM
