Suppression of the p66shc adapter protein by protocatechuic acid prevents the development of lung injury induced by intestinal ischemia reperfusion in mice.

Only registered users can translate articles

BACKGROUND Intestinal ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) causes severe histological injury, reactive oxygen species activation, and cell apoptosis in the lung. In this study, we investigated, using a murine intestinal I/R model, the effect of a polyphenolic compound, protocatechuic acid (PCA), in modulation

Protocatechuic acid modulates reproductive dysfunction linked to furan exposure in rats

Only registered users can translate articles

The reproductive toxicity associated with furan exposure in both animals and humans has been documented. Protocatechuic acid (PCA), a dietary polyphenolic chemical, reportedly elicits beneficial effects on the male reproductive system. However, the influence of PCA on the reproductive toxicity

Dietary protocatechuic acid abrogates male reproductive dysfunction in streptozotocin-induced diabetic rats via suppression of oxidative damage, inflammation and caspase-3 activity.

Clinical and experimental studies demonstrated that reproductive dysfunction is a non-lethal complication of diabetes. Protocatechuic acid (PCA) reportedly elicited several pharmacological effects in diabetic animals. However, there is paucity of information on the role of PCA in reproductive

Cyanidin-3-O-β-glucoside combined with its metabolite protocatechuic acid attenuated the activation of mice hepatic stellate cells.

Previous studies indicated that cyanidin-3-O-β-glucoside (C3G) as a classical anthocyanin exerted an anti-fibrotic effect in the liver, but its bioavailability was quite low. This study was undertaken to explore the restraining effect of C3G and its metabolite protocatechuic acid (PCA) on the

Protocatechuic acid inhibits testicular and epididymal toxicity associated with methotrexate in rats.

We examined the effect of protocatechuic acid (PCA) on methotrexate (MTX)-induced testicular and epididymal toxicity in Wistar rats, treated with MTX (20 mg/kg) alone or in combination with PCA (25 and 50 mg/kg) body weight for a week. PCA significantly abated MTX-mediated increase in reactive

Hepatorenal protective effects of protocatechuic acid in rats administered with anticancer drug methotrexate.

Only registered users can translate articles

The efficacy of methotrexate (MTX) as an anticancer drug is limited by some adverse effects including hepatic and renal toxicities. The present study investigated the possible protective effect of protocatechuic acid (PCA), a phenolic phytochemical widely present in several edible vegetables and

Protective effect of protocatechuic acid isopropyl ester against murine models of sepsis: inhibition of TNF-alpha and nitric oxide production and augmentation of IL-10.

Only registered users can translate articles

Antioxidants have been shown to be effective in murine models of sepsis. Protocatechuic acid has antioxidant activity. In the present study, the protective effects of protocatechuic acid and its derivatives were investigated in a mouse model of septic shock induced by lipopolysaccharide

Protocatechuic acid improves functional recovery after spinal cord injury by attenuating blood-spinal cord barrier disruption and hemorrhage in rats.

Only registered users can translate articles

After spinal cord injury (SCI), blood-spinal cord barrier (BSCB) disruption and hemorrhage lead to blood cell infiltration and progressive secondary injuries including inflammation. Inflammatory response is one of the major events resulting in apoptosis, scar formation and neuronal dysfunction after

Protective effects of protocatechuic acid on TCDD-induced oxidative and histopathological damage in the heart tissue of rats.

Only registered users can translate articles

2,3,7,8-Tetracholorodibenzo-p-dioxin (TCDD) is a highly toxic environmental contaminant that causes severe toxic effects in animal and human. In this study, we investigated the toxic effects of TCDD and the preventive effects of protocatechuic acid (PCA), a widespread phenolic compound, in the heart

Does protocatechuic acid, a natural antioxidant, reduce renal ischemia reperfusion injury in rats?

Only registered users can translate articles

BACKGROUND Protocatechuic acid (PCA), which has antioxidant property, is a simple phenolic compound commonly found in many plants, vegetables, and fruits, notably in green tea and almonds. Present study was an investigation of the effects of PCA on rat kidney with ischemia/reperfusion (IR)

In vivo protective effect of protocatechuic acid on tert-butyl hydroperoxide-induced rat hepatotoxicity.

Only registered users can translate articles

Increasing evidence regarding free-radical generating agents and the inflammatory process suggests that accumulation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) can involve hepatotoxicity. Previously, we found that protocatechuic acid (PCA), a polyphenolic compound from Hibiscus sabdariffa L. possessing free

Protective effects of protocatechuic acid on acute lung injury induced by lipopolysaccharide in mice via p38MAPK and NF-κB signal pathways.

Only registered users can translate articles

The study aims to investigate the effects of protocatechuic acid (PCA) separated from Chinese herbs, on acute lung injury (ALI) induced by lipopolysaccharide (LPS) in mice. The mouse model was induced by intraperitoneal injection of LPS at the dose of 5mg/kg body weight. Three doses of PCA (30, 15,

Protocatechuic acid mitigates cadmium-induced neurotoxicity in rats: Role of oxidative stress, inflammation and apoptosis.

Only registered users can translate articles

Environmental and occupational exposure to heavy metals, including cadmium (Cd), is associated with extremely adverse impacts to living systems. Antioxidant agents are suggested to eliminate Cd intoxication. In this paper, we investigated the potential neuroprotective effect of protocatechuic acid

Protocatechuic acid attenuates lipolysaccharide-induced acute lung injury.

Only registered users can translate articles

Protocatechuic acid (PCA) is a major metabolite of anthocyanins. It has numerous pharmacological effects, including anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and antitumoral activities. In the present study, we investigated the in vivo protective effect of PCA on acute lung injury (ALI) induced by

Protocatechuic acid ameliorates testosterone-induced benign prostatic hyperplasia through the regulation of inflammation and oxidative stress in castrated rats.

Only registered users can translate articles

Protocatechuic acid (PA) is a polyphenol-recognized for its efficacy as an antioxidant-possesses anticancer, anti-inflammatory, antioxidant properties. The efficacy of PA in the management of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) has not been investigated. Forty-two castrated rats (n = 7) were treated
