naringenin/hypoxia

Exposure to high-altitude results in hypobaric hypoxia which is considered as an acute physiological stress. This condition often leads to high-altitude illnesses such as high-altitude cerebral edema, high altitude pulmonary edema and hypoxic muscle weakness. Hypoxic injuries can be prevented by

Naringenin, a flavanone mainly derived from grapes and citrus fruits, has been reported to exhibit cardioprotective effects. Accumulating evidence has confirmed that endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress-mediated apoptosis participates in the process of myocardial ischemia/reperfusion injury and

Using our in vitro and in vivo models of oxidative stress, the current study was designed to determine the neuroprotective potential of naringenin, alone or in combination with lipoic acid. In our mixed neuronal culture exposed to hypoxia and subsequent reoxygenation, naringenin was shown to provide

The blood flow from the placenta to the fetus depends on human umbilical vein (HUV) vascular tone. ATP-sensitive K(+) (K(ATP)) channels link the metabolic state of the cell to membrane potential, and their activation in the HUV represents protection against hypoxia. The aims of our study were to

Oxidative stress and mitochondrial dysfunction are considered to be major contributing factors in the development and progression of many neurodegenerative diseases. Naringenin (NAR) is an abundant flavanone in the Citrus genus and has been found to exert antioxidant, anticarcinogenic and

Cancer arises in the context of an in vivo tumor microenvironment. This microenvironment is both a cause and consequence of tumorigenesis. Tumor and host cells co-evolve dynamically through indirect and direct cellular interactions, eliciting multiscale effects on many biological programs, including
