Evaluation of histological and ultrastructural changes provoked by prenatal tramadol on postnatal cortical cerebellar neuronal development in rats: possible implication of Ki67, GFAP and MicroRNA-7/P53 signalling trajectories
J Mol Histol. 2024 Apr 19. doi: 10.1007/s10735-024-10189-2. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTTramadol is a novel centrally acting analgesic. Despite, its implementation during pregnancy may impair neuronal survival and synaptic development in neonatal cerebella. The current investigation assessed the histological and ultrastructural alterations in postnatal cortical cerebellar neuronal development induced by prenatal tramadol. 30 offsprings were divided to control group I: fifteen pups born to mothers given saline from D10 till D21 of gestation. Tramadol-treated group II: fifteen pups born to mothers received tramadol HCL (50...

Mitochondrial CypD Acetylation Promotes Endothelial Dysfunction and Hypertension
CONCLUSIONS: These data support the pathogenic role of CypD acetylation in endothelial dysfunction and hypertension. We suggest that targeting cytotoxic mitochondrial isolevuglandins and GCN5L1 reduces CypD acetylation, which may be beneficial in cardiovascular disease.PMID:38639088 | DOI:10.1161/CIRCRESAHA.123.323596 (Source: Circulation Research)

Effect of 2-aminoethoxydiphenyl borate on the functions of mouse skeletal muscle mitochondria
Biochem Biophys Res Commun. 2024 Apr 16;712-713:149944. doi: 10.1016/j.bbrc.2024.149944. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTThis work examined the effect of 2-aminoethoxydiphenyl borate (2-APB) on the functioning of isolated mouse skeletal muscle mitochondria and modeled its putative interaction with mitochondrial proteins. We have shown that 2-APB is able to dose-dependently suppress mitochondrial respiration in state 3 and 3UDNP driven by substrates of complex I and II. This effect of 2-APB was accompanied by a slight dose-dependent decrease in mitochondrial membrane potential and appears to be due to inhibition of complex I ...

Methylated urolithin A, mitigates cognitive impairment by inhibiting NLRP3 inflammasome and ameliorating mitochondrial dysfunction in aging mice
In conclusion, mUro A alleviates cognitive impairment in aging mice by suppressing neuroinflammation through NLRP3 inflammasome inhibition and restoring mitochondrial function via the p53-PGC-1α pathway. This suggests its potential therapeutic agent for brain aging and aging-related diseases.PMID:38636727 | DOI:10.1016/j.neuropharm.2024.109950 (Source: Neuropharmacology)

The use of amino acids and their derivates to mitigate against pesticide-induced toxicity
Ecotoxicol Environ Saf. 2024 Apr 17;276:116340. doi: 10.1016/j.ecoenv.2024.116340. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTExposure to pesticides induces oxidative stress and deleterious effects on various tissues in non-target organisms. Numerous models investigating pesticide exposure have demonstrated metabolic disturbances such as imbalances in amino acid levels within the organism. One potentially effective strategy to mitigate pesticide toxicity involves dietary intervention by supplementing exogenous amino acids and their derivates to augment the body's antioxidant capacity and mitigate pesticide-induced oxidative harm, whose...

Salvia miltiorrhiza polysaccharide mitigates AFB1-induced liver injury in rabbits
Ecotoxicol Environ Saf. 2024 Apr 17;276:116344. doi: 10.1016/j.ecoenv.2024.116344. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTAflatoxin B1 (AFB1) is one of the common dietary contaminants worldwide, which can harm the liver of humans and animals. Salvia miltiorrhiza polysaccharide (SMP) is a natural plant-derived polysaccharide with numerous pharmacological activities, including hepatoprotective properties. The purpose of this study is to explore the intervention effect of SMP on AFB1-induced liver injury and its underlying mechanisms in rabbits. The rabbits were administered AFB1 (25 μg/kg/feed) and or treatment with SMP (300, 600, 9...

Mini-encyclopedia of mitochondria-relevant nutraceuticals protecting health in primary and secondary care —clinically relevant 3PM innovation
AbstractDespite their subordination in humans, to a great extent, mitochondria maintain their independent status but tightly cooperate with the “host” on protecting the joint life quality and minimizing health risks. Under oxidative stress conditions, healthy mitochondria promptly increase mitophagy level to remove damaged “fellows” rejuvenating the mitochondrial population and sending fragments of mtDNA as SOS signals to all system s in the human body. As long as metabolic pathways are under systemic control and well-concerted together, adaptive mechanisms become triggered increasing systemic protection, activatin...
