nobiletin/infarction

Our previous study showed that autophagy flux was impaired with sustained heart ischemia, which exacerbated adverse cardiac remodeling after acute myocardial infarction (AMI). Here we investigated whether Nobiletin, a citrus polymethoxylated flavonoids, could restore the autophagy flux and improve

Nobiletin, a citrus polymethoxylated flavone, is reported to possess various pharmacological activities such as anticancer, anti-inflammation, and antioxidant effects. Recently, nobiletin was shown to provide therapeutic benefit for the treatment of Alzheimer׳s disease by activating cAMP-response

BACKGROUND Recently, we identified the circadian rhythm protein Period 2 (PER2) in robust cardioprotection from myocardial ischemia (MI). Based on findings that perioperative MI is the most common major cardiovascular complication and that anesthetics can alter the expression of PER2, we

Stroke is regarded as one of the main health concerns globally, presenting with high mortality and morbidity rates. Cerebral ischemic damage and infarction are critically associated with stroke. Various mechanisms related to inflammation, oxidative stress and excitotoxicity are found to be involved

BACKGROUND Post-ischemic oxidative stress and inflammation play pivotal roles in the pathogenesis of ischemic stroke and may represent therapeutic targets. Nobiletin (NOB) has been reported to elicit a variety of biological effects through its anti-oxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. Our

There is cumulative evidence that the serine-threonine kinase Akt and its downstream nuclear transcription factor CREB are involved in neuronal survival and protection. The Akt activates and phosphorylates CREB at Ser133, resulting in the up-regulation of pro-survival CREB target genes such as BDNF
