Flavonoids lower Alzheimer's Aβ production via an NFκB dependent mechanism
Alzheimer's disease (AD) is characterized by the brain accumulation of Aβ peptides and by the presence of neurofibrillary tangles. Aβ is believed to play an important role in AD and it has been shown that certain flavonoids can affect Aβ production. Recently, it was suggested that the Aβ lowering properties of flavonoids are mediated by a direct inhibition the β-secretase (BACE-1) activity, the...
متن کاملAmyloid b-peptide stimulates nitric oxide production in astrocytes through an NFkB-dependent mechanism
The major pathological features of Alzheimer’s disease (AD) include amyloid plaques composed primarily of the b-amyloid (Ab) peptide, degenerating neurons and neurofibrillary tangles, and the presence of numerous activated astrocytes and microglia. Although extensive genetic data implicate Ab in the neurodegenerative cascade of AD, the molecular mechanisms underlying its effects on neurons and ...
متن کاملCD86 regulates IgG1 production via a CD19-dependent mechanism.
CD86 signals directly in a B cell to activate PI3K and increase the rate of IgG(1) production, without affecting germline transcription. However, the mechanism by which CD86 activates PI3K in a B cell and the relevance of CD86 stimulation in vivo remains unknown. We show that the addition of CD28/Ig to CD40 ligand/IL-4-activated wild-type, but not CD86- or CD19-deficient, B cells increased the ...
متن کاملLung-Derived Mediators Induce Cytokine Production in Downstream Organs via an NF-κB-Dependent Mechanism
In the setting of acute lung injury, levels of circulating inflammatory mediators have been correlated with adverse outcomes. Previous studies have demonstrated that injured, mechanically ventilated lungs represent the origin of the host inflammatory response; however, mechanisms which perpetuate systemic inflammation remain uncharacterized. We hypothesized that lung-derived mediators generated...
متن کاملElectrosynthesis of Clozapine Drug Derivative via an EC Electrochemical Mechanism
The fact that oxidation, as one of the main routes of phase I metabolism of drugs, follows by conjugation reactions, and also formation of nitrenium ion as one of the clozapine oxidation products, directed us to investigate the oxidation of clozapine (CLZ) in the presence of nucleophile. The oxidation of clozapine (CLZ) has been studied on a glassy carbon electrode in the absence and presence o...
