isocitrate dehydrogenase/infarction

Our prior study had shown that resveratrol was a potent cardioprotective agent in rats with myocardial infarction (MI). In this study, we further evaluated the mechanism of cardioprotection of resveratrol by proteomic analysis. After permanent ligation of the left anterior descending artery under

Diffuse Low-Grade Gliomas (LGGs) include World Health Organization (WHO) grade II diffuse astrocytoma, oligodendroglioma and oligoastrocytoma. Since the neurological symptoms of LGGs are often subtle and deceptive, LGGs are easily overlooked at their early stage. Here, we report a case of a

1. Rat liver and heart major isoenzymes of NADP-isocitrate dehydrogenase have each been purified about 100-fold by a combination of ammonium sulphate fractionation and chromatography on ion-exchange cellulose and their properties compared. 2. The properties were similar in respect of pH, inhibition

The effect of alpha-tocopherol pretreatment (6 mg/100 g body wt/day, orally for a period of 90 days) on mitochondrial electron transport in myocardial infarction induced by isoproterenol (20 mg/100 g body wt, subcutaneously for two days) was studied in rats. A significant decrease was observed in

Angiotensin II (AngII) type 1 receptor (AT1R) blockers (ARBs) limit left ventricular (LV) dysfunction and necrosis after reperfused myocardial infarction (RMI) and proteomics can detect changes in protein levels after injury. We applied proteomics to detect changes in levels of specific protein in

Angiotensin II (AngII) type 1 receptor (AT1R) blockers (ARBs) limit left ventricular (LV) dysfunction and necrosis after reperfused myocardial infarction (RMI) and proteomics can detect changes in protein levels after injury. We applied proteomics to detect changes in levels of specific protein in

The present study demonstrated the protective effects of arbutin (ARB) on hyperlipidemia, mitochondrial, and lysosomal membrane damage and on the DNA damage in rats with isoproterenol (ISO)-induced myocardial infarction (MI). Rats were pretreated with ARB (25 and 50 mg/kg body weight (bw)) for 21

Administration of a synthetic compound with predicted anti-ischemic and cardioprotective activity, 3,5-dicarbometoxyphenilbiguanide,--to rats with experimental myocardial infarction led to a decrease in the lipid peroxidation level, glutathione peroxidase activity, the level of reduced glutathione,

Dietary flavonoids intake has been reported inversely related to the incidence of cardiovascular diseases (CVD). The present study is undertaken to evaluate the preventive role of naringin on mitochondrial enzymes in isoproterenol (ISO)-induced myocardial infarction in male albino Wistar rats. Rats

Altered mitochondrial function and free radical-mediated tissue damage have been suggested as an important pathological event in isoproterenol (ISO)-induced cardiotoxicity. This study was undertaken to know the preventive effect of morin on mitochondrial damage in ISO-induced cardiotoxicity in male

The present study investigates the effect of aspartate and glutamate on mitochondrial function during myocardial infarction (MI) in wistar rats. Male albino wistar rats were pretreated with aspartate [100 mg(kgbody weight)(-1) day(-1)] or glutamate [100 mg(kg body weight)(-1) day(-1)]

With recent advances in nutrition sciences, natural products and health-promoting foods have received extensive attention from both health professionals and the common population. The flavonoid rich fraction (FRF) of Dioscorea bulbifera Linn. has a strong free radical scavenging activity. FRF (150

Asperosaponin VI is a saponin of the medicinal herb Dipsacus asper (Xuduan), and no pharmacological activity has been reported yet. In this study, we investigated the anti-myocardial ischemia effects of Asperosaponin VI (ASA VI) both in vivo and in vitro. An animal model of myocardial ischemia(MI)

Mutations in isocitrate dehydrogenase enzyme isoforms 1 (IDH1) and 2 (IDH2) have been identified in many adult astrocytomas and oligodendrogliomas. These mutations are targeted to specific codons (e.g. R132 in IDH1 and R172 in IDH2), making assays to detect them in clinical specimens feasible. We
