Abstract Melatonin confers cardioprotective effect against myocardial ischemia/reperfusion ( MI / R ) injury by reducing oxidative stress. Activation of silent information regulator 1 SIRT 1) signaling also reduces injury. We hypothesize that melatonin may protect activating signaling. This study investigated the protective treatment on heart and elucidated its potential mechanisms. Rats were exposed to in presence or absence receptor antagonist luzindole inhibitor EX 527 then subjected...

ABSTRACT Incomplete Miller‐Fisher syndrome (MFS) is a rare autoimmune disorder affecting the nervous system. In contrast to classical MFS, its clinical manifestations are often atypical and may be characterized by absence of certain features, such as extraocular muscle paralysis loss tendon reflexes. The presence anti‐GD3 antibodies infrequently observed in these patients. This case report describes patient diagnosed with incomplete MFS who exhibited positive antibody results presented...

Chronic stress can impact brain function through various mechanisms, contributing to the development of anxiety disorders. unpredictable mild (CUMS) is a well-established model for studying effects chronic stress. This study assessed impacts different durations CUMS on anxiety-like behavior, inflammation, and tryptophan metabolism in female C57BL/6N mice. The results revealed significant behavioral changes after 2-4 weeks CUMS. Specifically, open arms ratio time elevated plus maze (EPM)...

Increasing evidence supports the involvement of inflammatory and immune processes in temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE). miRNAs represent small regulatory RNA molecules that have been shown to act as negative regulators gene expression controlling different biological processes, including system homoeostasis function. We investigated cellular distribution miRNA-146a (miR-146a) a rat model TLE. Prominent up-regulation miR-146a activation was evident 1 week after status epilepticus (SE) persisted...

Blood-brain barrier (BBB) destruction is associated with a variety of neurological diseases. Brain microvascular endothelial cells (BMECs) are the key constituent BBB. Both matrix metalloproteinases-2/9 (MMP-2/9) and toll-like receptor-2 (TLR2) coexpressed in BMECs have been shown to play important roles BBB breakdown. It unknown whether TLR2 can regulate MMP-2/9 BMECs. In this study, Pam3CSK4 was used activate TLR2, expression tight junctions (TJs) measured by quantitative real-time PCR...

The growth differentiation factor-15 (GDF-15) may be involved in atherosclerosis. However, the role of GDF-15 atherosclerosis remains unclear. main goal this study was to verify and mechanism atherogenesis. We first compared serum level between patients with coronary healthy people. And then one ApoE−/− mouse model used explore effects on oxidized low-density lipoprotein (oxLDL) accumulation, atherosclerosis-related gene expression, lipid accumulation-related protein expression macrophages....

We studied how tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum Mill.) chloroplast omega-3 fatty acid desaturase gene (Lefad7) overexpression enhanced low-temperature (LT) tolerance in transgenic plants. In these plants, the content of linolenic (18:3) markedly increased and, correspondingly, linoleic (18:2) decreased. Similar changes were found after 6 h under LT (4°C) treatment. Under stress, wild type (WT) plants showed a much greater increase relative electrolyte leakage and malondialdehyde (MDA)...

Molecular and stable carbon isotopic compositions of 32 crude oils from the Kekeya area Southwest Depression, Tarim Basin, were analyzed comprehensively to clarify oil groups trace sources. The results indicate that lacustrine shale sequences within Upper-Middle Permian Pusige Formation (P3–2p) are major effective sources; thermal maturation effects exert crucial impact on geochemical oils.

Anti-N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor (anti-NMDAR) encephalitis is an antibody-related autoimmune encephalitis. It characterized by the existence of antibodies against NMDAR, mainly GluN1 subunit, in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF). Recent research suggests that anti-NMDAR may reduce NMDAR levels this disorder, compromising synaptic activity hippocampus. Although are used as diagnostic indicators, origin central nervous system (CNS) unclear. The blood-brain barrier (BBB), which separates brain from...
