Skeletal muscle injured with lambda-carrageenan has increased aerobic glycolysis. To assess the regulation of this process, the tissue concentrations of glycolytic intermediates, the flux through phosphofructokinase (PFK), and the intracellular concentrations of PFK effectors were examined in
Autophagy is associated with the cytoprotection of physiological processes against inflammation and oxidative stress. Salvia miltiorrhiza possesses cardiovascular protective actions and has powerful anti-oxidative and anti-inflammatory effects; however, whether and how Salvia miltiorrhiza-derived
Withaferin A (WA), a bioactive constituent derived from Withania somnifera plant, has been shown to exhibit many qualifying properties in attenuating several metabolic diseases. The current investigation sought to elucidate the protective mechanisms of WA (1.25 mg/kg/day) on pre-existing obese mice
Inhibition of the key glycolytic activator 6-phosphofructokinase 2/fructose-2,6-bisphosphatase-3 (PFKFB3) by 3-(3-pyridinyl)-1-(4-pyridinyl)-2-propen-1-one (3PO) strongly attenuates pathological angiogenesis in cancer and inflammation. In addition to modulating endothelial proliferation and
Neuroinflammation can cause major neurological dysfunction, without demyelination, in both multiple sclerosis (MS) and a mouse model of the disease (experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis; EAE), but the mechanisms remain obscure. Confocal in vivo imaging of the mouse EAE spinal cord reveals that
Lactobacilli are universally recognized as probiotics that are widely used in the adjuvant treatment of inflammatory diseases, such as vaginitis and enteritis. With the overuse of antibiotics in recent years, the lactobacilli in the human body are killed, which could disrupt the microecological
Fructose consumption is responsible for the onset of insulin resistance (IR), and metabolic syndrome. It possesses no functional utility in body and its detrimental effects on hepatic metabolic milieu are beyond those produced by glucose. The need of the hour is to identify fructose-induced IR as an
The aim of this study was to investigate whether Portulaca oleracea (PO) extracts have hypoxic neuroprotective effects and if so, by what mechanism. After being orally administrated with the PO extracts or distilled water for seven days, adult male BALB/c mice were adapted to a normobaric low oxygen
The goal of the current work is to study the molecular mechanisms underlay the action of 5- amino-exo-3-azatricyclo[5.2.1.0(2,6)]decan-4-one (P-11) with combined antiarrhythmic, nootropic, anti-inflammatory and anaesthetic activities. The aconitine-induced experimental rat model of cardiac
BACKGROUND. Alveolar hypoxia is an important condition related to many disorders such as chronic pulmonary hypertension, pulmonary vasoconstriction, and pulmonary vascular remodeling. The aim of present study was to disclose the biological response and the potential transcriptome networks regulating
We monitored changes that took place in glycolytic enzymes, the pyruvate end product of glycolysis, tumor necrosis factor α (TNFα), and toll-like receptors (TLRs) both at the transcriptional and translational levels upon direct interaction between PR8-H1N1 and the human monocytes U937 in vitro
Campylobacter concisus is an emerging enteric pathogen that is associated with inflammatory bowel disease. Previous studies demonstrated that C. concisus is non-saccharolytic and hydrogen gas (H2) is a critical factor for C. concisus growth. In order to understand the
Cystic hydatid disease is an important zoonosis caused by Echinococcus granulosus infection. The expression profiles of its parasitic life stages and host-Echinococcus interactions remain to be elucidated. Here, we identified 157 adult and 1588 protoscolex proteins (1610 in all), including 1290
Myxoma virus (MYXV) provides an important model for investigating host-pathogen interactions. Recent studies have also highlighted how mutations in transformed human cells can expand the host range of this rabbit virus. Although virus growth depends upon interactions between virus and host proteins,
The maximal activity of a selection of enzymes involved in muscle carbohydrate handling, citric acid cycle and fatty acyl beta-oxidation were studied after treatment with the fluorinated corticosteroid triamcinolone and compared to a similar treatment of the non-fluorinated corticosteroid
