Steatosis is an important clinical manifestation associated with chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection. AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK), a major mediator of lipid metabolism, regulates HCV-associated hepatic steatosis, but the underlying mechanisms remain obscure. Here we BACKGROUND Berberine, a herbal extract, has been reported to protect against inflammatory disorders. The adenosine 5'-monophosphate (AMP)-activated protein kinase (AMPK) signaling pathway can be activated by berberine and inhibited by the synthetic, reversible AMP-competitive inhibitor, Compound C.
BACKGROUND
Diabetic nephropathy (DN), especially type 2 diabetes, is now increasing rapidly worldwide, also in Asian countries, and is one of the major long-term vascular complications. The pathogenesis of DN involves both genetic and environmental factors. Around 30-40% of type 2 diabetic patients
Rosmarinic acid (RA) is extensively utilized in herbal medicine in China. The adenosine 5'-monophosphate-activated protein kinase (AMPK) signaling can be activated by RA and inhibited by the synthetic, reversible AMP-competitive inhibitor, Compound C (CC). The objective of this study was to
Hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection is frequently associated with hepatic steatosis, particularly in patients with HCV genotype-3 (HCVGT3). It has variously been hypothesized, largely from in-vitro studies, to be the result of increased synthesis, decreased metabolism and export of triglycerides. We
BACKGROUND
Diabetic nephropathy (DN) often results in end-stage renal disease, and this is the most common reason for initiation of dialysis in the United States. Complications of diabetes, particularly renal disease, substantially increase the risk of subsequent severe illness and death. The
Alcoholic and nonalcoholic steatohepatitis are characterized by fatty liver plus inflammation. It is generally believed that steatosis promotes inflammation, whereas inflammation in turn aggregates steatosis. Thus, we hypothesized the deletion of interleukin (IL)-10, a key anti-inflammatory
Covering: up to the end of 2018Soraphens are a class of polyketide natural products discovered from the myxobacterial strain Sorangium cellulosum. The review is intended to provide an overview on the biosynthesis, chemistry and biological properties of soraphens, that represent a prime example to
