Cuscuta chinensis Lam. (Convolvulaceae) is an important herbal medicine widely used to improve sexual function, treat osteoporosis, and prevent aging, has been reported exhibit anti-osteoporotic effects in vitro. However, the activity of on glucocorticoid-induced osteoporosis still remains unclear. The present study aimed assess protective effect underlying mechanism action extract (CCE) against vivo. Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into four groups as follows: control group, 2...
Recently, aberrantly high levels of D-ribose have been discovered in type II diabetic patients. glycates proteins more rapidly than D-glucose, resulting the production advanced glycation end products (AGEs). Accumulations these can be found impaired renal function, but mechanisms are poorly understood. The present study tested whether induces dysfunction via RAGE-dependent NF-κB signaling pathway. In vivo, administration was to lower blood glucose and regulate insulin tolerance. Compared...
Lowered muscle regenerative capacity in the elderly greatly contributes to development of multiple diseases. The specific roles long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) during aging remain unknown. Here, we identify an elevated lncRNA (lncRNA-3), association with reduced MyoD expression and suppressed capacity, skeletal aged mice. LncRNA-3 could interact both
Mutations in the STRA6 gene are associated with fatal Human Micro‐ophthalmic Syndrome 9. We generated a mouse model to elucidate biochemical basis of this congenital disease. These mice failed transport vitamin A across blood‐retina and ‐ brain barrier developed blindness, anomalies hydrocephalus. Restriction embryonic supply extended malformations extra‐neuronal tissues, whereas pharmacological doses mitigated STRA6‐deficient offspring. Our study established critical role for retinoid...
