The central nervous system (CNS) is highly dependent on adequate supply of oxygen and is sensitive to hypoxia. It is known that hypoxia induces injuries on the brain tissue and the neuronal activity. Curcumin, a yellow pigment obtained from the rhizome of C. longa Linn., has been regarded as a
Hypoxia-inducible factor-1 (HIF-1) is a transcription factor that consists of two subunits, the HIF-1α and HIF-1β (ARNT). Under hypoxic conditions, HIF-1 is an adaptive system that regulates the transcription of multiple genes associated with growth, angiogenesis, proliferation, glucose transport,
Curcumin, traditionally used as food and medicinal purposes, has recently been reported to have protective efficacy against hypoxia. Hypoxia is one of the important reactive factors in tumor metastasis, which is a key problem in clinical thyroid cancer therapy. In present study, we investigate the
BACKGROUND
The present study was proposed to elucidate the prophylactic role of curcumin in the prevention of hypoxia-induced cerebral edema (HACE).
METHODS
Rats were exposed to simulated hypobaric hypoxia at 7620 m for 24 h at 25 ± 1 °C. Transvascular leakage, expression of transcriptional factors
Islet transplantation is one of many therapeutic approaches for the treatment of diabetes. During transplant procedures, the isolated islets are subjected to hypoxic conditions, and undergo the apoptotic process. Curcumin has a cytoprotective effect, and may therefore be useful for the protection of
BACKGROUND Cerebral ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury contributes to mortality and morbidity in preterm infants. Curcumin has been shown to exert neuro-protective effects in the central nervous system (CNS). The aim of this study was to investigate the neuro-protective activity of curcumin and the
OBJECTIVE
To explore the effects of curcumin on the content of malondialdehyde (MDA) and the expression level of c-fos protein following hypoxia ischemia brain damage (HIBD) in rats.
METHODS
Sprague-Dauley (SD) rats were randomly divided into four groups as the following: sham group, hypoxia
Chronic intermittent hypoxia (CIH) is one of the main features of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), which is also commonly associated with neurocognitive impairments. The present study aimed to elucidate the beneficial effect of curcumin on CIH-induced brain injuries. Male balb/c mice (6 ∼ 8 weeks)
OBJECTIVE
The purpose of the study is to investigate the inhibition of hypoxia-induced angiogenesis after embolization in VX2 rabbit liver tumors by liposomal curcumin.
METHODS
A total of 54 VX2 rabbits were divided into three groups, and each group had three subgroups according to the sacrifice
OBJECTIVE
To explore effects and possible mechanisms of curcumin on hypoxia induced epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) in hepatocellular carcinoma cell line HepG2.
METHODS
HepG2 cells were divided to 3 groups, i.e., the normal control group, the CoCl2 group, and the CoCl2 plus 10 micromol/L
OBJECTIVE
To investigate the effect of curcumin on MRC-5 in human embryo fibroblast (HEF) under hypoxia and possible underlying mechanism.
METHODS
The MRC-5 were cultured in vivo under 5 different conditions, including normal control, SB203580 (10 micromol/L), LY-294002 (10 micromol/L) and curcumin
It is an important therapeutic strategy to protect mitochondria from oxidative stress, especially during ischemia-reperfusion. Curcumin is a naturally occurring phenolic compound isolated as a yellow pigment from turmeric (Curcuma longa). This compound has received much attention due to its
Bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) possess promising therapeutic effects and have been considered as a highly desirable agent for tissue injury treatment. However, little survived cells after transplanting due to severe relocated conditions (characterized by prolonged hypoxia and oxidative
BACKGROUND
Pulmonary surfactant oxidation leads to alveolar collapse- a condition often noticed in high altitude pulmonary edema (HAPE). The present study was aimed to determine the effect of curcumin prophylaxis in augmenting the phase II antioxidant enzymes and surfactant proteins expression in
OBJECTIVE
Curcumin has properties of anti-inflammation, anti-oxidation, anti-infection and anti-tumor, benefiting for the treatment of many diseases. The present study was aimed to investigate the role of curcumin in myocardial infarction (MI) and its potential mechanism involving transcription
