Oxidative stress increases delayed neuronal death in the brain following ischemia. As a consequence, many attempts to reduce the damage resulting from cerebral ischemia under more highly oxidized conditions have focused on treatments aimed at maintaining the redox equilibrium of the local
OBJECTIVE
This study aims to evaluate the efficacy and safety of α-lipoic acid in the treatment of aged type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) complicated with acute cerebral infarction.
METHODS
90 patients were randomly divided into two groups, on the basis of conventional treatment. The experiment group
Patients with combined coronary heart disease and diabetes mellitus make up a growing segment of the population and require a comprehensive treatment approach. Patients with concurrent diabetes mellitus and coronary heart disease have a worse projection. Under these conditions, the incidence of
BACKGROUND
The present study investigates the effects and mechanisms of α-Lipoic acid (LA) on myocardial infarct size, cardiac function and cardiomyocyte apoptosis in rat hearts subjected to in vivo myocardial ischemia/reperfusion (MI/R) injury.
RESULTS
Male adult rats underwent 30 minutes of
Background
We hypothesized that daily administration of a potent antioxidant (
α-lipoic acid: ALA) would protect the heart against both acute myocardial
infarction (AMI) and left ventricular remodeling (LVR) post-AMI.
Methods and Results
Two separate
Reactive oxygen species (ROS) have been involved in the induction and progression of damage of many human disorders, such as: heart infarction, cerebral ischemia, diabetic neuropathy, Alzheimer's disease, etc. In several studies, the synergism between alpha-lipoic acid and vitamin E has been
Alpha-lipoic acid (ALA) has various pharmacological effects such as antioxidative, anti-inflammatory, and antiapoptotic properties. In the present study, administration of ALA (40 mg/kg, i.p.) for 3 days resulted in a significant decrease in neuronal deficit score and infarct volume and a
The purpose of this study was to investigate whether alpha-lipoic acid (LA), the oxidized form of the radical scavenger dihydrolipoic acid (DLA), protected brain tissue against ischemic damage and whether there were differences in the neuroprotective potencies between its enantiomers. We used the
OBJECTIVE
Reactive oxygen species (ROS) and mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinase play an important role in the development of myocardial reperfusion injury. In this study, we examined whether treatment with alpha-lipoic acid (ALA) before reperfusion could prevent myocardial reperfusion injury in
Delayed arterial healing at culprit sites after drug-eluting stent (DES) placement for acute myocardial infarction (AMI) is associated with increased risk of late stent thrombosis. The Korea Acute Myocardial Infarction Registry was established in commemoration of the 50th anniversary of Korea
Alpha-lipoic Acid(ALA), an endogenous short-chain fatty acid, has been found inducing a protective effect against ischemia and reperfusion(I/R) injury. Recently, mTOR signaling pathway has been proved to involve in the mechanism of I/R injury. In our previous study, we determined that ALA could
It is well established that the brain is sensitive to ischemia/reperfusion (I/R)‑induced injury. α‑lipoic acid (LA), a free radical scavenger and antioxidant, has a neuroprotective effect against cerebral I/R‑induced injury, however, the underlying mechanisms remain to be elucidated. Therefore, the
OBJECTIVE
Alpha-lipoic acid (α-LA) has been demonstrated to be protective against cerebral ischemia injury. Herein, we investigate the neuroprotective effect and underlying mechanisms of α-LA.
METHODS
In vivo study, α-LA was administered intravenously upon reperfusion of transient middle cerebral
The antioxidant properties of alpha-lipoic acid (aLA) correlate with its ability to promote neuroproliferation. However, there have been no comprehensive studies examining the neurorestorative effects of aLA administration after the onset of ischemia. The middle cerebral artery (MCA) of adult rats
During cerebral ischemia-reperfusion, the enhanced production of oxygen-derived free radicals contributes to neuronal death. The antioxidants alpha-lipoic acid and vitamin E have shown synergistic effects against lipid peroxidation by oxidant radicals in several pathological conditions. A
