Oxidative stress and neuroinflammation are two major causes leading to early brain injury after subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH). Nuclear factor E2-related 2 (Nrf2) is a critical transcription that contributes antioxidant responses. Additionally, Nrf2 could inhibit transforming growth beta-activated kinase 1 (TAK1), which plays vital role in microglial activation-mediated neuroinflammation. Neferine (NE) exhibits considerable protective effects diverse disease models. However, the detailed...

Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a clinical syndrome associated with multitude of conditions. Although renal replacement therapy (RRT) remains the cornerstone treatment for advanced AKI, its implementation can potentially pose risks and may not be readily accessible across all healthcare settings regions. Elevated lactate levels are implicated in sepsis-induced AKI; however, it unclear whether increased directly induces AKI or elucidates underlying mechanisms. For human, measurement arterial...
