OBJECTIVE
The antioxidative and antinitrative activities of (1→3)-β-D-glucan (1-4μg/ml) from the yeast cell walls of Saccharomyces cerevisiae in human plasma treated with strong oxidants - peroxynitrite (ONOO(-)) (0.1mM) and hydrogen peroxide (H(2)O(2)) (2mM) were studied in vitro. The main purpose
Acute ischemic stroke (AIS) is the most common type of stroke. Recent studies have found that AIS is closely involved in the immune regulation function of regulatory T cells (Tregs). C-C motif chemokine ligand 26 (CCL26) is a member of the chemokine family that plays an essential role in cell
Post-ischemic inflammation plays an important role in the progression of ischemia/reperfusion injuries. Prothymosin-α (ProT) can protect cells from necrotic death following ischemia; however, its immunostimulatory actions may counteract the neuroprotective effect. We proposed that ProTΔNLS,
Fermented papaya preparation (FPP) (a product of yeast fermentation of Carica papaya Linn) is a food supplement. Studies in chronic and degenerative disease conditions (such as thalassemia, cirrhosis, diabetes and aging) and performance sports show that FPP favorably modulates immunological,
Ischemic stroke can activate multiple transcription factors and cause inflammatory reactions, which involve pattern recognition receptors with immunostimulatory effects. Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) is one of the receptors related to innate immunity and several inflammatory reactions. The promising
High mobility group box protein1 (HMGB1), a ubiquitous chromatin component, is released by necrotic cells, apoptotic cells, and cells in profound distress. HMGB1 plays a critical role as a proinflammatory mediator. HMGB1 represents an important new target for drug development in a variety of
