Alzheimer's disease (AD) is the most common dementia in late life memory related issues. It is estimated that worldwide 46.8 million people suffer from dementia. The hypoxia inducible factor (HIF) upregulation could be a potential neuroprotective strategy by modulating the multiple survival pathways
In the adult heart, catalase (CAT) activity increases appropriately with increasing levels of hydrogen peroxide, conferring cardioprotection. This mechanism is absent in the newborn for unknown reasons. In the present study, we examined how the posttranslational modification of CAT contributes to
New studies suggest that the teratogenicity of phenytoin (PHT) is linked to its membrane-stabilizing pharmacological action via the rapid component of the delayed rectified potassium channel (lkr), resulting in embryonic cardiac dysrhythmia during a restricted sensitive period. In order to further
The discovery of 1,3,8-triazaspiro[4.5]decane-2,4-diones (spirohydantoins) as a structural class of pan-inhibitors of the prolyl hydroxylase (PHD) family of enzymes for the treatment of anemia is described. The initial hit class, spirooxindoles, was identified through affinity selection mass
Malignant hyperthermia (MH) is a rare hereditary, mostly subclinical myopathy. Trigger substances, such as volatile anesthetic agents and the depolarizing muscle relaxant succinylcholine can induce a potentially fatal metabolic increase in predisposed patients caused by a dysregulation of the
Necrostatin-1 inhibits receptor-interacting protein (RIP)-1 kinase and programmed necrosis and is neuroprotective in adult rodent models. Owing to the prominence of necrosis and continuum cell death in neonatal hypoxia-ischemia (HI), we tested whether necrostatin was neuroprotective in the
