An increasing number of studies suggest that oxidative stress is associated with the Parkinsonian process. This study evaluated the potential neuroprotective role of puerarin (PR) on lesioned substantia nigra (SN) induced by 6-hydroxydopamine (6-OHDA). Data from a rotational test showed that PR
In the present study, we aimed to investigate the protective effect of puerarin (PR) on the substantia nigra (SN) of 6-hydroxydopamine (6-OHDA)-lesioned rats. Our results show that glutathione peroxidase (GSH-Px) and superoxide dismutase (SOD) activities were increased, while the malonaldehyde (MDA)
Radix Pueraria lobata (RP) has been reported to prevent obesity and improve glucose metabolism; however, the mechanism responsible for these effects has not been elucidated. The mechanism underlying anti-obesity effect of RP was investigated in high-fat diet (HFD) induced obese mice and skeletal
It is well known that puerarin possesses protective activity on neurodegenerative diseases. However, the exact path way involved in the protective effect of puerarin on MPP+ -induced cell death is unclear. In this study, we focused on mitochondria im pairment in the apoptotic process of MPP+
Ischemic retinopathy and, particularly, age-related macular degeneration (AMD) are difficult eye diseases to treat. Since the etiology of these diseases is inadequate blood circulation in the retina and choroid, drugs which can improve blood circulation to these tissues should be beneficial to these
Puerarin (PUR), an 8-C-glucoside of daidzein extracted from Pueraria plants, is closely related to autophagy, reduced reactive oxygen species (ROS) production, and anti-inflammatory effects, but its effects on human nucleus pulposus mesenchymal stem cells (NPMSCs) have not yet been identified. In
OBJECTIVE
To observe the effects of puerarin on the expressions of leptin receptor mRNA and phosphorylated Janus kinase 2 / phosphorylated signal transducers and activators of transcription 3 (P-JAK2/P-STAT3) proteins in the liver of rats with non-alcoholic fatty liver (NAFLD).
METHODS
A rat model
Glutamate toxicity is estimated to be the key cause of photoreceptor degeneration in the pathogenesis of retinal degenerative diseases. Oxidative stress and Ca(2+) influx induced by glutamate are responsible for the apoptosis process of photoreceptor degeneration. Puerarin, a primary component of
To provide experimental and theoretical basis for the clinical application of Puerarin in acute alcohol poisoning, 30 Wistar rats were randomized into 3 groups as follows: (1) Group A (control) underwent normal sodium (N.S.) peritoneal injection (i.p.) and intragastric administration (i.g.); (2)
Amyloid β (Aβ) is a critical stimulator that promotes the progression of age-related macular degeneration (AMD). NLRP3 inflammasome activation induced by Aβ is estimated to be responsible for retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) dysfunction in such disease. Puerarin, one of the major active constituents
It has been acknowledged that oxidative stress, resulting in the apoptosis of dopaminergic neurons, is a key mechanism in the pathogenesis of Parkinson's disease (PD). Puerarin, extracted from the root of pueraria lobata, has been clinically used for ischemic heart disease and cerebrovascular
Puerarin, an active component of Pueraria montana var. lobata (Willd.) Sanjappa & Pradeep is well-known for its anti-oxidative and neuroprotective activities. Although anti-Parkinson's disease activity of puerarin was reported in both of in vivo and in vitro model, detailed mechanisms are not
BACKGROUND Parkinson's disease (PD) is manifested as degeneration of dopaminergic neurons in substantia nigra compacta. The mitochondrial dysfunction induced by oxidative stress is believed to a major cause of PD. Puerarin has been widely applied due to its estrogen nature and anti-oxidative
BACKGROUND
A wealth of evidence has suggested that oxidative stress is involved in the secondary brain injury after traumatic brain injury (TBI). Recently, numerous in vivo and in vitro studies were reported that puerarin could inhibit oxidative stress through the activation of phosphatidylinositol
Ventricular remodeling is a major pathological process of normal heart failure. With the aging of society, poor diet control, social, psychological and other risk factors in our country, the incidence of myocardial infarction and hypertension is reported to increase yearly. Many
