Psoriasis, which is characterized by keratinocyte hyperproliferation, presents complex management challenges. The heat shock protein 70 (HSP 70) family, essential in folding and stress responses, also modulates inflammation, suggesting its therapeutic potential inflammation‑driven diseases. present study aimed to explore the effects of brevilin A, a natural compound known alleviate imiquimod‑induced psoriasis, on HSP expression proinflammatory cytokine production HaCaT cells stimulated with...
The peripheral administration of lipopolysaccharide (LPS) induces depressive-like behavior. Anhedonia is a core symptom depression, defined as loss the capacity to experience pleasure. present study used sucrose preference test investigate influence Ginkgo biloba extract (EGb 761) on LPS-induced anhedonia in male rats. animals were randomly divided into four groups: (I) vehicle + saline, (II) LPS, (III) EGb 761 and (IV) LPS. Saline or LPS (100 µg/kg) was administered intraperitoneally 2 h...
An increase in incidence and severity of gram-positive infections has emerged the past decade. In this regard, attention been focused recently on immune responses microglial cells central nervous system to bacteria. The underlying immunological cellular events activation induced by specific bacterial toxin bacteria, however, have not yet clarified fully. This study reports that a simple cell wall product, lipoteichoic acid (LTA), derived from bacteria (Staphylococcus aureus) could trigger...
Sexual dysfunction is a common problem for men with diabetes. Epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG) known to ameliorate erectile function in aging rats. However, there has not yet been report evaluate its effects on diabetic male rat sexual behavior the literature. In this study, we investigated of EGCG Diabetic rats were induced by single intraperitoneal injection 65 mg/kg streptozotocin. After streptozotocin one week, animals then orally treated 40 or vehicle. Copulatory and fasting blood...
The correlation between dopamine (DA) and norepinephrine (NE) levels in the bed nucleus of stria terminalis (BNST) male sexual behavior was examined middle-aged rats. Male rats (18–19 months) were divided into: (a) Group MIE, consisting showing mounts, intromissions, ejaculations; (b) MI, composed mounts but no ejaculation; (c) NC, noncopulators. Young adult (4–5 displaying complete copulatory used as control. Tissue DA, NE, DA metabolites BNST measured by high-pressure liquid...
In this work, we fabricated wearable strain sensors by iron-filled vertically-aligned carbon nanotubes (VACNTs), which would eliminate traditional nano-printing processes directly depositing CNTs on bendable foil based substrate with Ferrocene (Fe(C <sub xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">5</sub> H ) xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">2</sub> ). The fabrication provides a forward potential for large-scale industrial manufacturing...
