Citrus cultivars have remarkable health benefits, but only the anti-inflammatory activities of major varieties been studied. This study investigated effects various citrus and their active components. The essential oils 21 peels were extracted via hydrodistillation using a Clevenger-type apparatus, chemical compositions analyzed. D-Limonene was most abundant constituent. To evaluate cultivars, gene expression levels an inflammatory mediator proinflammatory cytokines investigated. Among oils,...
The recently defined type of cell death ferroptosis has garnered significant attention as a potential new approach to cancer treatment owing its more immunogenic nature when compared with apoptosis. Ferroptosis is characterized by the depletion glutathione (GSH)/glutathione peroxidase-4 (GPx4) and iron-dependent lipid peroxidation. Diplacone (DP), geranylated flavonoid compound found in Paulownia tomentosa fruit, been identified have anti-inflammatory anti-radical activity. In this study,...
The aim of this study is to compare the gene expression profile in mesenchymal stem cells derived from dental tissues and bone marrow for characterization cells. We employed GeneChip analysis levels approximately 32,321 kinds transcripts 5 samples bone-marrow-derived (BMSCs) (n=1), periodontal ligament (PDLSCs) (n=2), pulp (DPSCs) (n=2). Each cell was sorted by a FACS Vantage Sorter using immunocytochemical staining early surface marker STRO-1 before microarray analysis. identified 379...
Abstract Degradation of organic pollutants is an important research area to solve environmental issues. Metal‐free carbon nitride (C 3 N 4 ) materials have a great potential as cost‐effective and environment‐friendly photocatalysts for this purpose. Herein, we develop route produce mesoporous C investigate their photocatalytic performance degrading rhodamine B (RhB). The are generated through the self‐assembly melamine cyanuric acid during high‐temperature pyrolysis. show excellent...
Chamaecyparis obtusa has been traditionally used as an antibiotic agent and in cosmetics for the prevention of microorganism infection skin troubles. Atopic dermatitis (AD) is a chronic inflammatory disease that encompasses immunologic responses, susceptibility factors compromised skin-barrier function. Use plant medicines therapeutic treatment AD recently suggested alternative option. The present study examined effect elemol, active component obtusa, on using vivo vitro models. RBL-2H3...
Abstract Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), one of the most common malignant cancers worldwide, is associated with substantial mortality. Because HCCs have strong resistance to conventional chemotherapeutic agents, novel therapeutic strategies are needed improve survival in patients HCC. The multicellular tumor spheroid (MCTS) model a powerful method for anticancer research because its ability mimic complexity and heterogeneity tissue, three-dimensional cellular context pathophysiological...
Abstract 11β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type 1 (11βHSD1) is a key enzyme that catalyzes the intracellular conversion of cortisone to physiologically active cortisol. Although 11βHSD1 has been implicated in numerous metabolic syndromes, such as obesity and diabetes, functional roles during progression nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) consequent fibrosis have not fully elucidated. We found pharmacological genetic inhibition resulted reprogramming hepatic stellate cell (HSC) activation via...
Metabolomics approaches are becoming popular for a rational and efficient approach to standardize research including optimal harvest time determination improve the values of plant raw materials. In this study, multivariate statistical analysis metabolites from Artemisia gmelinii Weber ex Stechm (AG) by growth stage according (from June October) was performed ultra-performance liquid chromatography (UPLC) coupled with quadrupole flight mass spectrometry (Q-TOF/MS). Secondary metabolite...
This study reexamines North Korea's economic development zones, their emergence, and roles from the perspective of actor-network theory by examining Wonsan-Mt. Kumgang International Tourist Zone, an zone located in Wonsan area that represents Korean tourism industry. Through analysis actors networks within this tried to demonstrate is a new industrial space embeds future potentials. The findings reveal Wonsan's natural environment resources played important role changing policy revitalize In...
Abstract The intracellular enzyme 11β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type 1 (11βHSD1) catalyzes the interconversion of active glucocorticoid (cortisol) and its intrinsically inert form (cortisone) in metabolic tissues. Although 11βHSD1 is considered a promising therapeutic target disorders such as 2 diabetes, obesity, nonalcoholic steatohepatitis because hepatic functions, roles other tissues have received less attention. In this study, we show that 11βHSD1-specific inhibitor J2H-1702...
Wood has been used as the primary material for musical instruments a long time. The density and elastic modulus of wood are known to be important factors in determining its acoustic properties stringed instruments. objective this study was show that fungal decay processes can applied improve quality woods. effects biological modification two woods, alder soft maple, which were treated with rot fungi, evaluated terms (ρ), dynamic elasticity along grain (EL), constant (A), conversion...
Two white rot fungi, Ceriporia sp. ZLY-2010 (CER) and Stereum hirsutum (STH) were used as biocatalysts for the biotransformation of (−)- α-pinene. After 96 hr, CER converted bicyclic monoterpene hydrocarbon α-pinene into α-terpineol (yield, 0.05 g/L), a monocyclic alcohol, in addition to, other minor products. Using STH, verbenone was identified major biotransformed product, products myrtenol, camphor, isopinocarveol. We did not observe any inhibitory effects substrate or transformed on...
There is a paucity of information about mortality related to light-intensity physical activity (LPA) in the older population. We examine associations between and mortality, focusing on effect dose-response relationship mortality.We analyzed total 58,537 participants aged ≥ 65 years (mean age, 73.9 ± 5.8 years; male, 36.0%) Korean National Health Insurance Service database 2009 2012. The Date end follow-up was December 31, 2013. Individuals were divided into four categories according...
The self-stacking of gadolinium hydroxocation nanosheets to form a layered structure was achieved by using the dodecylsulfate (DS) group as an anionic surfactant at room temperature. DS-assisted construction behavior hydroxocations (LGdH) differed significantly depending on pH solutions. At < 7, interlayer distances self-constructed lamellar structures were in range 34∼36 Å, which is explained tilted bilayer arrangement DS groups. products obtained this formed Gd2(SO4)3 phase when heated 300...
There are reports that pregnant women infected with SARS-CoV-2 not only have increased morbidity but also complications and evidence of maternal fetal vascular malperfusion on placental pathology. This was a retrospective study diagnosed infection after March 2020. The results reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction testing IgM IgG antibody the amniotic fluid, cord blood, placenta, blood were confirmed at delivery.
