Acute stroke is a major risk for morbidity and mortality in aging population. Mitochondrion has been the focus of a wide stroke-related research. This study investigated if treatment or pre-treatment with diphenyl diselenide (PhSe)2 can prevent mitochondrial damage in cerebral structures of rats
Diphenyl-para-phenylenediamine (DPPD) is an antioxidant that has been shown to decrease liver damage due to the peroxidative process of carbon tetrachloride in rats and to ameliorate cold-induced cerebral edema in cats. Because lipid peroxidation disrupts the integrity of the plasma membrane, a
Cerebrovascular diseases, including ischemic stroke, are associated with high mortality worldwide. Oxidative stress and inflammation are important pathophysiological mechanisms involved in post-ischemic cerebral injury. The present study was designed to investigate the potential protective effect of
Background exposure to persistent organic pollutants (POPs), lipophilic xenobiotics that accumulate mainly in adipose tissue, has recently emerged as a new risk factor for cardiovascular diseases. This prospective study was performed to evaluate if plasma concentrations of selected POPs predict
This study aimed to explore potential new drugs in the treatment of ischemic stroke by Connectivity Map (CMap) and to determine the role of luteolin on ischemic stroke according to its effects on matrix metalloproteinase-9 (MMP9) and PI3K/Akt signaling pathway. Based on published gene expression
OBJECTIVE
This study investigated the role of the microRNA miR-298 and its target Act1 in ischemic stroke.
METHODS
Cell viability was assessed with the 3-(4,5-dimethythiazol-2- yl)-2,5-diphenyl tetrazolium bromide assay. Apoptotic cells were detected by flow cytometry, and mRNA and protein
BACKGROUND
Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) have been widely tested for their therapeutic efficacy in the ischemic brain and have been shown to provide several benefits. A major obstacle to the clinical translation of these therapies has been the inability to noninvasively monitor
Genipin, the multipotent ingredient in Gardenia jasmenoides fruit extract (GFE), may be an effective candidate for treatment following stroke or traumatic brain injury (TBI). Secondary injury includes damage mediated by reactive oxygen species (ROS) and reactive nitrogen species (RNS), which can
Ebselen (2-phenyl- 1,2-benzisoselenazole-3 (2H)-one) is a seleno-organic compound with antioxidant properties, and anti-inflammatory actions. Recently, ebselen improved the outcome of acute ischemic stroke in humans. In the present study, the potential antioxidant capacity of organochalcogenide
Oxidative stress results in protein oxidation and is implicated in cerebral disease, such as Parkinson's disease, Alzheimer's disease, and ischemic stroke. Sulfiredoxin-1 (Srxn1) is an endogenous antioxidant protein that has neuroprotective effects. The mechanisms of Srxn1 in oxidative stress have
BACKGROUND
A variety of selenium compounds have been observed to provide protection against oxidative stress, presumably by mimicking the mechanism of action of the glutathione peroxidases. However, the selenium chemistry that underpins the action of these compounds has not been unequivocally
Xyloketal B is a novel marine compound with unique chemical structure isolated from mangrove fungus Xylaria sp. (no. 2508). Recently, we have demonstrated that Xyloketal B is an antioxidant and can protect against oxidized low density lipoprotein (LDL)-induced cell injury. In the present study, we
Currently, there is very limited ability to measure the temperature of the brain, but a direct technique for its estimation in vivo could improve the detection of patients at risk of temperature-related brain damage, help in the diagnosis of stroke and tumour, and provide useful information on the
As one of the major causes of mortality and disability worldwide, ischemic stroke has never been received enough attention. Following ischemia/reperfusion injury, long non-coding RNAs have been extensively found to be involved into inflammatory responses, microvascular endothelial cell death, and
Amyloid beta-peptide-binding alcohol dehydrogenase (ABAD) is a member of the family of short chain dehydrogenase/reductases whose distinctive properties include the capacity to bind amyloid beta-peptide and enzymatic activity toward a broad array of substrates including n-isopropanol and
