Molecules, Vol. 29, Pages 1927: Unraveling the Nephroprotective Potential of Papaverine against Cisplatin Toxicity through Mitigating Oxidative Stress and Inflammation: Insights from In Silico, In Vitro, and In Vivo Investigations
This study investigated whether papaverine could mitigate cisplatin-induced kidney damage while preserving its chemotherapeutic efficacy. Integrative bioinformatics analysis predicted papaverine modulation of the mechanistic pathways related to cisplatin renal toxicity; notably, mitogen-activated protein kinase 1 (MAPK1) signaling. We validated protective effects in normal kidney cells without interfering with cisplatin cytotoxicity on a cancer cell line. Concurrent in vivo administration of papaverine alongside cisplatin in rats prevented elevations in nephrotoxicity markers, including serum creatinine, blood urea nitroge...

Quercetin in Osteoporosis Treatment: A Comprehensive Review of Its Mechanisms and Therapeutic Potential
AbstractPurpose of ReviewThis review aims to provide a theoretical basis and insights for quercetin ’s clinical application in the prevention and treatment of osteoporosis (OP), analyzing its roles in bone formation promotion, bone resorption inhibition, anti-inflammation, antioxidant effects, and potential mechanisms.Recent FindingsOP, a prevalent bone disorder, is marked by reduced bone mineral density and impaired bone architecture, elevating the risk of fractures in patients. The primary approach to OP management is pharmacotherapy, with quercetin, a phytochemical compound, emerging as a focus of recent interest. Thi...

Alpha-lipoic Acid: An Antioxidant with Anti-Aging Properties for Disease Therapy
Curr Med Chem. 2024 Apr 19. doi: 10.2174/0109298673300496240416114827. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTThe anti-aging effects of alpha-lipoic acid (αLA), a natural antioxidant synthesized in human tissues, have attracted a growing interest in recent years. αLA is a short- -chain sulfur-containing fatty acid occurring in the mitochondria of all kinds of eukaryotic cells. Both the oxidized disulfide of αLA and its reduced form (dihydrolipoic acid, DHLA) exhibit prominent antioxidant function. The amount of αLA inside the human body gradually decreases with age resulting in various health disorders. Its lack can be compensa...

Mitochondrial Physiology of Cellular Redox Regulations
Physiol Res. 2024 Apr 22. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTMitochondria (mt) represent the vital hub of the molecular physiology of the cell, being decision-makers in cell life/death and information signaling, including major redox regulations and redox signaling. Now we review recent advances in understanding mitochondrial redox homeostasis, including superoxide sources and H2O2 consumers, i.e., antioxidant mechanisms, as well as exemplar situations of physiological redox signaling, including the intramitochondrial one and mt-to-cytosol redox signals, which may be classified as acute and long-term signals. This review exempl...

Redox Status as a Key Driver of Healthy Pancreatic Beta-Cells
Physiol Res. 2024 Apr 22. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTRedox status plays a multifaceted role in the intricate physiology and pathology of pancreatic beta-cells, the pivotal regulators of glucose homeostasis through insulin secretion. They are highly responsive to changes in metabolic cues where reactive oxygen species are part of it, all arising from nutritional intake. These molecules not only serve as crucial signaling intermediates for insulin secretion but also participate in the nuanced heterogeneity observed within the beta-cell population. A central aspect of beta-cell redox biology revolves around the localized p...

N-acetylcysteine Protects Against Myocardial Ischemia-Reperfusion Injury Through Anti-ferroptosis in Type 1 Diabetic Mice
Cardiovasc Toxicol. 2024 Apr 22. doi: 10.1007/s12012-024-09852-7. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTThe hearts of subjects with diabetes are vulnerable to ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI). In contrast, experimentally rodent hearts have been shown to be more resistant to IRI at the very early stages of diabetes induction than the heart of the non-diabetic control mice, and the mechanism is largely unclear. Ferroptosis has recently been shown to play an important role in myocardial IRI including that in diabetes, while the specific mechanisms are still unclear. Non-diabetic control (NC) and streptozotocin-induced diabetic (DM) ...

Molecular insights of Eucalyptol (1,8-Cineole) as an anti-arthritic agent: in vivo and in silico analysis of IL-17, IL-10, NF- κB, 5-LOX and COX-2
AbstractThe monoterpene oxide, Eucalyptol (1,8-Cineole), a primary component of eucalyptus oil, has been evaluated pharmacologically for anti-inflammatory and analgesic activity. Current research aimed to evaluate Eucalyptol ’s anti-arthritic potential in a Complete Freund’s adjuvant induced arthritis that resembles human rheumatoid arthritis. Polyarthritis developed after 0.1 mL CFA injection into the left hind footpad in rats. Oral administration of Eucalyptol at various doses (100, 200 and 400 mg/kg) significan tly reduced paw edema, body weight loss, 5-LOX, PGE2 and Anti-CCP levels. Real‐time PCR investigation ...
