The Polyherbal Functional Ingredient Containing Ginger, Chinese Date, and Wood Ear Mushroom Protects against Dementia following Metabolic Syndrome
This study was performed to test this hypothesis and to explore the underlying mechanism. Male Wistar rats weighing 180-220 g were induced metabolic syndrome (MetS) with a 16-week high-carbohydrate high-fat diet (HCHF) feeding. The rats with MetS characteristics were orally administered GCJ at various doses (GCJ100, GCJ200, and GCJ300 mg kg-1 BW) 21 days pre-induction and 21 days post-induction of reperfusion injury (I/R) at the right middle cerebral artery (MCAO). Memory was evaluated every 7 days during the study period. At the end of the study, neuron density, AChE activity, and the expressions of eNOS, BDNF, and pERK/E...

DL-3-n-butylphthalide improves the endothelium-dependent vasodilation in high-fat diet-fed ApoE < sup > -/- < /sup > mice via suppressing inflammation, endothelial necroptosis and apoptosis
This study aims to explore whether NBP is able to improve endothelium-dependent vasodilation in atherosclerosis and the underlying mechanisms. Male ApoE-/- mice were fed with a high-fat diet (HFD) for 9-16 weeks to establish a model of atherosclerosis. NBP were given to the mice after eating HFD for 6 weeks and atorvastatin served as a positive control. The endothelium-dependent vasodilation, the blood flow velocity, the atherosclerotic lesion area, the serum levels of lipids, inflammatory cytokines and necroptosis-relevant proteins (RIPK1, RIPK3 and MLKL), and the endothelial necroptosis and apoptosis within the aorta wer...

Dengyinnaotong attenuates atherosclerotic lesions, gut dysbiosis and intestinal epithelial barrier impairment in the high fat diet-fed ApoE < sup > -/- < /sup > mice
CONCLUSIONS: Our work provides novel preclinical evidence that underpins the multifaceted effects of DYNT in the control of atherosclerosis.PMID:37453620 | DOI:10.1016/j.jep.2023.116916

A cyclic azapeptide ligand of the scavenger receptor CD36/SR-B2 reduces the atherosclerotic lesion progression and enhances plaque stability in apolipoprotein E-deficient mice
Front Pharmacol. 2023 May 30;14:1204905. doi: 10.3389/fphar.2023.1204905. eCollection 2023.ABSTRACTAtherosclerosis is a chronic inflammatory disease of the arterial walls that develops at predisposed sites. As a major risk factor for adverse cardiovascular pathology, atherosclerosis can progress to myocardial infarction and stroke, due to the rupture of unstable atherosclerotic lesions. Macrophage uptake of modified lipoproteins and metabolic dysfunction contributes significantly to the initiation and development of atherosclerotic lesions. The cluster of differentiation 36 receptor [CD36 (SR-B2)] plays a key role in ather...

Melatonin modulates the aggravation of pyroptosis, necroptosis, and neuroinflammation following cerebral ischemia and reperfusion injury in obese rats
This study aimed to investigate the roles of melatonin on pyroptosis, necroptosis, and pro-inflammatory pathways occurring in the I/R brain of obese rats. Male Wistar rats were given a high-fat diet for 16 weeks to induce the obese condition, and then were divided into 4 groups: Sham-operated, I/R treated with vehicle, I/R treated with melatonin (10 mg/kg), and I/R treated with glycyrrhizic acid (10 mg/kg). All drugs were administered via intraperitoneal injection at the onset of reperfusion. The development of neurological deficits, cerebral infarction, histological changes, neuronal death, and glial cell hyperactivation ...

Can ‘toxic’ bilirubin treat a variety of illnesses?
Generations of medical and biology students have been instilled with a dim view of bilirubin. Spawned when the body trashes old red blood cells, the molecule is harmful refuse and a sign of illness. High blood levels cause jaundice, which turns the eyes and skin yellow and can signal liver trouble. Newborns can’t process the compound, and although high levels normally subside, a persistent surplus can cause brain damage. Yet later this year up to 40 healthy Australian volunteers may begin receiving infusions of the supposedly good-for-nothing molecule. They will be participating in a phase 1 safety trial, sponsored ...

SHRSP5/Dmcr rats fed a high-fat and high-cholesterol diet develop disease-induced sarcopenia as nonalcoholic steatohepatitis progresses
CONCLUSIONS: This study suggests that SHRSP5/Dmcr rats could be a useful novel model for investigate the mechanism of secondary sarcopenia disorder associated with nonalcoholic steatohepatitis.PMID:37209870 | DOI:10.1016/j.aanat.2023.152104
