Abstract Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is the leading cause of central vision loss in elderly. Degeneration retinal pigment epithelial (RPE) cells a crucial causative factor responsible for onset and progression AMD. A2E, major component toxic lipofuscin implicated AMD, deposited RPE with age. However, mechanism whereby A2E may contribute to pathogenesis AMD remains unclear. We demonstrated that was danger signal cells, which induced autophagy decreased cell viability concentration-...

Abstract Background Proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) are one of the most frequently prescribed classes drug in world and there is a growing number publications on correct versus incorrect use PPIs worldwide. The knowledge among medical staff essential for improving rationality PPI application. present study aimed to investigate awareness, attitude behavior toward Southwest China. Methods descriptive-analytical was conducted 900 from three professional groups (300 doctors, 300 nurses...

Microcystins (MCs), as the most dominant bloom-forming strains in eutrophic surface water, can induce hepatotoxicity by oxidative stress. Alpha-lipoic acid (α-LA) is a super antioxidant that synthesis of antioxidants, such glutathione (GSH), nuclear factor erythroid 2-related 2 (Nrf2). However, potential molecular mechanism α-LA regeneration GSH remains unclear. The present study aimed to investigate whether could reduce toxicity MCs induced human hepatoma (HepG2), Bel7420 cells, and BALB/c...

The increased drug resistance and metastasis of melanoma resulted in poor prognosis patients. Here, we designed synthesized a novel hemicyanine-based fluorescent probe ZWZ-3, investigated its application for imaging treatment both vitro vivo. ZWZ-3 preferentially accumulated cells via process that depended on the organic anion-transporting polypeptide (OATP), which targeted mitochondria hemicyanine cationic nitrogen. In addition, effect molecular mechanism melanoma. studies showed promoted...

Melanoma is the most invasive skin cancer, with a high mortality rate. However, existing therapeutic drugs have side effects, low reactivity, and lead to drug resistance. As power source in cells, mitochondria play an important role survival of cancer cells are target for tumor therapy. This study aimed develop new anti-melanoma compound that targets mitochondria, evaluate its effect on proliferation metastasis melanoma explore mechanism action. The novel mitochondria-targeting compound,...

Man-made mineral fibers (MMMFs) are substitutes for asbestos. MMMFs widely used as insulation, but their molecular mechanisms underlying the tumorigenic effects in vivo have been poorly studied. For this reason, work aimed to explore properties and carcinogenic of MMMFs. The three MMMFs, rock wool (RW), glass (GFs), ceramic (CFs), were prepared into respirable dust. Particle size, morphology, chemical composition analyzed by laser particle analyzer, scanning electron microscope, X-ray...

Considering the high contents of minerals and potential health risk mineral dusts to human environment, this paper was aimed figure out toxic effect mechanism four common particles (quartz, albite, sericite, montmorillonite). Cytotoxicity assays for cell viability (MTT assay), membrane integrity (LDH oxidative stress (H2O2 assay) inflammatory cytokines (TNF-α IL-6 were applied. The results showed influence these on A549 followed order momtmorillonite > cericite≥quartz albite. There no...
