Significance Impaired neuronal bioenergetics and neuroinflammation are thought to play key roles in the progression of Alzheimer's disease (AD), but their interplay is not clear. AD mouse brains showed lower nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD + ) levels alterations inflammation. Treatment mice with NR reduced neuroinflammation, attenuated DNA damage, prevented cellular senescence. We present evidence that beneficial effects riboside (NR) are, part, through a cyclic GMP-AMP synthase...

Diabetic cardiomyopathy is a common cardiac condition in patients with diabetes mellitus, which can result hypertrophy and subsequent heart failure, associated pyroptosis, the pro-inflammatory programmed cell death. MicroRNAs (miRNAs), small endogenous non-coding RNAs, have been shown to be involved diabetic cardiomyopathy. However, whether miRNAs regulate pyroptosis remains unknown. Our study revealed that mir-30d expression was substantially increased streptozotocin (STZ)-induced rats...

A total of 724 participants were randomly assigned or treatment. After a mean follow‐up 4 years, the 135.7/76.2 Hg group and 149.7/82.1 group. The visit‐to‐visit variability systolic diastolic lower that Intensive treatment,...

Alzheimer's Disease (AD) is the most common neurodegenerative disorder in elderly. Beta-amyloid (Aβ) peptide accumulation considered as a primary cause of AD pathogenesis, with defective autophagy patients' brains. Enhanced autophagic activity has been reported to promote Aβ clearance vitro and vivo models. Meanwhile, there growing evidence that estrogen receptor β (ERβ) viable therapeutic target can ameliorate pathological features associated AD. Very little known about detailed molecular...

Aims . We aimed to investigate whether LCZ696 protects against pathological cardiac hypertrophy by regulating the Sirt3/MnSOD pathway. Methods In vivo , we established a transverse aortic constriction animal model establish pressure overload-induced heart failure. Subsequently, mice were given oral gavage for 4 weeks. After that, underwent transthoracic echocardiography before they sacrificed. vitro introduced phenylephrine prime neonatal rat cardiomyocytes and small-interfering RNA knock...

Abstract Flubendazole, FDA-approved anthelmintic, has been widely used in treating testinal parasites. In the recent years, Flubendazole reported to exert anticancer activities. On other hand, little was known about effects of on gliomas. Here we demonstrated a novel effect flubendazole glioma cells. We found that inhibited cell proliferation and promoted apoptosis lines vitro, suppressed tumor growth xenograft models by intraperitoneal injection. However, might have no influence migration....

Atrial fibrosis serves as an important contributor to atrial fibrillation (AF). Recent data have suggested that microRNA-30c (miR-30c) is involved in fibrotic remodelling and cancer development, but the specific role of miR-30c remains unclear. The purpose this study was investigate its underlying mechanisms through vivo vitro experiments. Our results indicate significantly down-regulated rat abdominal aortic constriction (AAC) model cellular induced by transforming growth factor-β1...

Alzheimer's disease (AD) is the most common neurodegenerative disease. Growing evidence suggests an important role for gut dysbiosis and microbiota-host interactions in aging neurodegeneration. Our previous works have demonstrated that supplementation with nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+) precursor, riboside (NR), reduced brain features of AD, including neuroinflammation, deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) damage, synaptic dysfunction, cognitive impairment. However, impact NR administration...
