OBJECTIVE
Skeletal muscle atrophy is an important health issue and can impose tremendous economic burdens on healthcare systems. Glucocorticoids (GCs) are well-known factors that result in muscle atrophy observed in numerous pathological conditions. Therefore, the development of effective and safe
Mitochondrial dysfunction is an important contributor to the development of osteoarthritis (OA). Sirtuin 3 (SIRT3) regulates diverse mitochondrial proteins to maintain mitochondrial homeostasis, and dihydromyricetin (DHM) is reported as a potential SIRT3 activator. This study aims to explore the
T lymphocytes produced by the thymus are essential mediators of immunity. Accelerated thymic atrophy appears in the patients with administration of glucocorticoids (GCs) which are commonly-used drugs to treat autoimmune and infectious diseases, leading to dysregulation of immunity with manifestation
BACKGROUND
Dihydroflavonol 4-reductase (DFR) is the key enzyme committed to anthocyanin and proanthocyanidin biosynthesis in the flavonoid biosynthetic pathway. DFR proteins can catalyse mainly the three substrates (dihydrokaempferol, dihydroquercetin, and dihydromyricetin), and show different
Recent studies indicated that seeded fibril formation and toxicity of α-synuclein (α-syn) play a main role in the pathogenesis of certain diseases including Parkinson's disease (PD), multiple system atrophy, and dementia with Lewy bodies. Therefore, examination of compounds that
