OBJECTIVE
To investigate the presence of IgG and IgM types of anticardiolipin (aCL) and antiphospholipid (aPL) antibodies in younger Iranian patients with ischemic stroke.
METHODS
Both IgG and IgM types of aPL (cardiolipin, anti phosphatidyl inositol, anti phosphatidyl serine, anti phosphatidic acid
OBJECTIVE
Cerebral ischemia/reperfusion is associated with reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation, and NADPH oxidases are important sources of ROS. We hypothesized that NADPH oxidases mediate blood-brain barrier (BBB) disruption and contribute to tissue damage in
BACKGROUND
The RGD-toxin protein Lj-RGD3 is a naturally occurring 118 amino acid peptide that can be obtained from the salivary gland of the Lampetra japonica fish. This unique peptide contains 3 RGD (Arg-Gly-Asp) motifs in its primary structure. Lj-RGD3 is available in recombinant form (rLj-RGD3)
Neurological disturbances frequently emerge in antiphospholipid syndrome (APS). One hundred and twenty four patients (100 women, 24 men, mean age 37.5 +/- 11.3 years) with primary APS (PAPS), including 76 patients with Sneddon's syndrome and positive antibodies to phospholipids (aPL), have been
Necroptosis is a programmed cell death pathway triggered by activation of receptor interacting protein kinase 3 (RIPK3), which phosphorylates and activates the mixed lineage kinase-like domain pseudokinase, MLKL, to rupture or permeabilize the plasma membrane. Necroptosis is an inflammatory pathway
Because of its favorable action profile in humans, melatonin is a particularly interesting candidate as a neuroprotectant in acute ischemic stroke. Until now, the signaling mechanisms mediating melatonin's neuroprotective actions remained essentially uninvestigated. Herein, we examined the effects
Oxidative stress plays a crucial role in neurological diseases, resulting in excessive production of reactive oxygen species, mitochondrial dysfunction and cell death. In this work, we designed and synthesized a series of tetramethylpyrazine (TMP) derivatives and investigated their abilities for
Blood platelets interact with a variety of soluble agonists such as epinephrine and adenosine diphosphate (ADP); many insoluble cell matrix components, including collagen and laminin, and biomaterials used for construction of invasive medical devices. These interactions stimulate specific receptors
Carbon monoxide-releasing molecules are emerging as a new class of pharmacological agents that regulate important cellular function by liberating CO in biological systems. Here, we examined the role of carbon monoxide-releasing molecule 3 (CORM-3) in modulating neuroinflammatory responses in BV-2
BACKGROUND
Atherosclerosis is a common cardiovascular disease that causes myocardial infarction, heart failure, and stroke. Increased oxidized low density lipoprotein (ox-LDL) in the sub-endothelium is the characteristic origin of atherogenesis. Klotho, an anti-aging protein, has been reported to
