Recently, we demonstrated that myricetin exhibits cytoprotective effects against H2O2-induced cell damage via its antioxidant properties. In the present study, was found to inhibit apoptosis in Chinese hamster lung fibroblast (V79-4) cells, as shown by decreased apoptotic bodies, nuclear fragmentation, sub-G1 population, and disruption of mitochondrial membrane potential (Dym), which are increased H2O2-treated cells. Western blot data showed level Bcl-2, is an anti-apoptotic factor, levels...

Nrf2 has an anti-carcinogenic effect. However, increase in activity is also implicated cancer chemoresistance. A switch from E-cadherin to N-cadherin affects the transdifferentiation and metastasis of cells. In view key role this malignancy, we investigated regulatory effect on Nrf2. HEK293 cells, overexpression inhibited nuclear accumulation Nrf2, prevented Nrf2-dependent gene induction. GST pull-down immunocytochemical assays verified interaction between Nrf2: bound C-terminus but not its...

Cadherins mediate cell-cell adhesion and catenin (ctn)-related signaling pathways. Liver fibrosis is accompanied by the loss of E-cadherin (ECAD), which promotes process epithelial-mesenchymal transition. Currently, no information available about inhibitory role ECAD in hepatic stellate cell activation. Because ECAD's potential for inhibiting induction transforming growth factor β1 (TGFβ1), we investigated whether overexpression prevents TGFβ1 gene induction; also examined what molecular...

Korean ginseng (Panax C.A. Meyer) has been used as a botanical medicine throughout the history of Asian traditional Oriental medicine. Formulated red (one form ginseng) shown to have antioxidant and chemopreventive effects.This study investigated cytoprotective effects mechanism action extract (RGE) against severe ROS production mitochondrial impairment in cytotoxic cell model induced by AA + iron.RGE protected HepG2 cells from iron-induced cytotoxicity preventing induction dysfunction...

Laminaria japonica has frequently been used as a food supplement and drug in traditional oriental medicine. Among the major active constituents responsible for bioactivities of L. japonica, fucoxanthin (FX) considered potential antioxidant. This study was conducted to examine effects extract (LJE) or FX against oxidative stress on hepatocytes elucidate overall their cellular mechanisms effects. We constructed an vitro model with treatment arachidonic acid (AA) + iron HepG2 cells stimulate...

Acute and chronic liver disease are global problems with high morbidity mortality. Bupleuri Radix (BR) is an herbal medicine that has been prescribed empirically in traditional Asian to modulate metabolism. However, its active compounds therapeutic mechanisms remain unclear. Here, we integrated a network-based approach experimental validation elucidate BR's potential treating oxidative injury. Our incorporated data collection network construction utilizing bioinformatics tools, identified...

<title>Abstract</title> This study aimed to evaluate the biomechanical efficacy of rim plating for posterolateral tibia plateau fractures (PLTPFs) compared conventional posterior buttress plating. Sixty synthetic tibial models were divided into three groups: with a 3.5-mm locking compression T-plate, 2.7-mm variable-angle cloverleaf plate and two anteroposterior screws, alone. Static cyclic loading tests conducted assess mechanical stability under simulated physiological conditions. Failure...

Rosa hybrida has been demonstrated to exert biological effects on several cell types. This study investigated the efficacy of edible ethanol extract R. (EERH) against human colorectal carcinoma line (HCT116) cells. HCT116 cells were cultured with different concentrations EERH (0, 400, 600, 800, and 1,000 µg/mL) in Dulbecco's modified Eagle medium. Cell viability was measured using 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5 diphenyl tetrazolium bromide viable counting assays. cycle pattern observed by...
