The increase in osteopontin (OPN) levels after stroke induces neural protection by activating Akt signaling and inhibiting GS3Kβ, iNOS, and NF-κB. This study investigated the effect of a high-fat diet rich in corn oil (CO-HFD) on infarct size and memory function in rats after induction of cerebral
Testicular torsion is a common syndrome that could lead to infertility. We investigated the therapeutic effects of lycopene, an antioxidant caretenoid, on testicular ischemia/reperfusion (IR) injury that resembles testicular torsion. Male Wistar albino rats were divided into three groups: sham (n =
We have investigated the effect of elevated n-3 (omega-3) fatty acid content in the diet on arrhythmias, ischemic damage, and inflammatory cell infiltration into the reperfused left ventricular free wall (LVFW). Weanling rats were fed purified diets in which the lipid was replaced with either corn
BACKGROUND
The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of thymoquinone, an antioxidant phytochemical compound found in the plant Nigella sativa, on the alterations in renal functional parameters following warm renal ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI) in the rat.
METHODS
Wistar rats underwent
Vitamin E content of cardiac tissue has been proposed to play a major role in the damage caused by myocardial ischemia-reperfusion (I-R). Previous studies using in vitro models have examined vitamin E deficiency and I-R-induced myocardial damage with equivocal results. The purpose of this study was
BACKGROUND
Barbiturates, benzodiazepines, and synthetic steroids having anesthetic properties, by enhancing the inhibitory GABAergic neurotransmission to the neuronal circuits of cerebral structures vulnerable to ischemia, reduce the damage induced by this condition. Some endogenous steroids
BACKGROUND
In addition to the hippocampus, the dorsolateral caudate nucleus (CN) and the pars reticularis of the substantia nigra (SNr) are among the most vulnerable brain areas to ischemia. A possible association of the neuronal injury in these two subcortical nuclei has been proposed, the primary
The neuroprotective effects of two isomers (Z- and E-) of ajoene, a major compound in oil-macerated garlic products, against ischemic damage were investigated in the gerbil hippocampus. Vehicle (corn oil), Z- or E-ajoenes (25 mg/kg) was orally administered 30 min prior to the induction of transient
Cyclosporin-A (CsA) has been reported to protect livers from warm ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury. To study if CsA has also a protective effect on cold I/R injury, two models were used: the isolated perfused rat liver (IPRL) and the orthotopic rat liver transplantation (ORLT). (1) IPRL: Livers
BACKGROUND
Fish oil consumption has been associated with a reduced incidence of cardiovascular diseases. However, the precise mechanisms involved are not completely understood. Here we tested the hypothesis that a fish oil-enriched diet improves neovascularization in response to
Liver ischemia and reperfusion injury is mediated by oxygen free radicals, cytokines, and prostanoids produced by Kupffer cells and infiltrating neutrophils. Fish oil-supplemented diets alter membrane phospholipid composition and modify prostanoids and cytokine production in response to ischemia and
The consumption of omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (n-3 PUFAs) has been reported to decrease resting heart rate (HR) and increase heart rate variability (HRV). However, the effects of n-3 PUFAs on these variables in response to a physiological stress (e.g., exercise or acute myocardial
Both brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) and microglia activation are involved in the pathogenesis of ischemic stroke. Herein, we attempt to ascertain whether Calycosin, an isoflavonoid, protects against ischemic stroke by modulating the endogenous production of BDNF and/or the microglia
Retinal ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury induces oxidative stress, leukocyte infiltration, and neuronal cell death. Sulforaphane (SF), which can be obtained in cruciferous vegetables such as broccoli, exerts protective effects in response to oxidative stress in various tissues. These effects can be
OBJECTIVE
The present study investigated the neuroprotective effects of chrysin (CRS) following global cerebral ischemia and reperfusion (I/R) in a C57BL/J6 mouse model.
METHODS
A total of 40 mice were equally divided into four groups: (1) sham-operated (SH = control), (2) global cerebral I/R (I/R),
