Hippocampal dysfunction related to cognitive impairment and emotional disorders in young children and adolescents caused by neonatal hypoxic-ischemic brain injury (HIBI) has attracted increasing attention in recent years. Crosstalk between the nervous and immune systems organized by hypoxia-ischemia
OBJECTIVE
This study investigated the effects of glycyrrhizin, a potent antioxidant, on tissue injury caused by ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) of the gut.
METHODS
I/R injury of the intestine was caused by clamping both the superior mesenteric artery and the celiac trunk for 45 min followed by release of
Glycyrrhizae radix water extract (GRWE) and its two major constituents glycyrrhizin and 3-glycyrrhetinic monodesmoside, significantly suppressed LDH leakage and MDA release, whereas glycyrrhetinic acid had no effect. On the other hand, in rats subjected to ischemia-reperfusion, the activities of
Gasdermin D (GSDMD), a genetic substrate for inflammatory caspases, plays a central role in pyroptosis of macrophages and release of interleukin‑1β (IL-1β), but was mainly referred to microbial infection. High mobility group box-1 (HMGB1), served as an alarm molecule during various pathological
OBJECTIVE
In spite of cytoprotective and anti-inflammatory actions, conventional licorice extracts (c-lico) were limitedly used due to serious side effects of glycyrrhizin. As our group had successfully isolated special licorice extracts (s-lico) lowering troublesome glycyrrhizin, but increasing
Several components isolated from Glycyrrhizae radix rhizome (GR), including glycyrrhizin, liquiritin, and liquiritigenin, have been shown to induce cancer cell death and inhibit cancer metastasis. Isoliquiritin apioside (ISLA), a component isolated from GR, has been effective for treating
OBJECTIVE
The expression of high-mobility group box-1 (HMGB1) is upregulated in epiretinal membranes and vitreous fluid from patients with proliferative diabetic retinopathy and in the diabetic retina. HMGB1 mediates inflammation, breakdown of the blood-retinal barrier and apoptosis in the diabetic
High-mobility group box 1 (HMGB1) is a protein that is part of a larger family of non-histone nuclear proteins. HMGB1 is a ubiquitary protein with different isoforms, linked to numerous physiological and pathological pathways. HMGB1 is involved in cytokine and chemokine release, leukocyte activation
OBJECTIVE
To observe neuroprotective effects of raw and roasted licorice against hypoxia and ischemic damage.
METHODS
When elucidating the protective effects of raw and roasted licorice, we analyzed the lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) release using PC12 cells after hypoxia in an in vitro study and after
Enriched environment (EE) has been shown to promote neurogenesis and functional recovery after ischemic stroke. However, the underlying molecular mechanisms are not fully understood. In this study, C57BL/6 mice underwent middle cerebral artery occlusion (60 min) followed by reperfusion, after which
OBJECTIVE
Hyperglycemia increases the risk of preeclampsia. Hyperglycemia induces a placental trophoblast inflammatory (IL-1β, IL-6, IL-8), antiangiogenic (sFlt-1, sEndoglin), and anti-migratory profile. The IL-1β response is mediated via inflammasome activation by the damage-associated molecular
Endometriosis (EMS) is the most common gynecological disease in women of reproductive age, and it is associated with chronic pelvic pain, dyspareunia and infertility. As a consequence of genetic, immune and environmental factors, endometriotic lesions have high cyclooxygenase (COX)-2 and
Pulmonary hypertension (PH) is a mortal disease featuring pulmonary vascular constriction and remodeling, right heart failure, and eventual death. Several reports showed that high-mobility group box 1 (HMGB1) appears to be critical for the development of PH; the underlying mechanism, however, has
