GSK3β Inhibitor Peptide Protects Mice from LPS-induced Endotoxin Shock
BACKGROUND Glycogen synthase kinase 3beta (GSK3beta) is a ubiquitous serine/threonine kinase that is regulated by serine phosphorylation at 9. Recent studies have reported the beneficial effects of a number of the pharmacological GSK3beta inhibitors in rodent models of septic shock. Since most of the GSK3beta inhibitors are targeted at the ATP-binding site, which is highly conserved among diver...
متن کاملThe Role of Amifostine as a Radioprotector
The article by Drs. Wasserman and Brizel concludes that protection of normal tissue from side effects due to radiotherapy will permit dose escalation and improve therapeutic efficacy and treatment outcomes. Although this concept is sound in principle, its generalized clinical application hinges critically on two controversial issues associated with the use of all putative radioprotective agents...
متن کاملEvaluation of silymarin as a promising radioprotector.
Silymarin, a purified extract of seeds of Silybum marianum L. and well known for its hepatoprotective abilities, has been evaluated for inherent utility as a radioprotective agent. A fraction (INM-7035) was authenticated by characterizing the percentage composition of silybin A and B (39.9% and 57.4%). Free radical scavenging activities of INM-7035 against superoxide radicals (>68%), hydroxyl r...
متن کاملCurcumin, the golden spice from Indian saffron, is a chemosensitizer and radiosensitizer for tumors and chemoprotector and radioprotector for normal organs.
Curcumin (diferuloylmethane), the yellow pigment in Indian saffron (Curcuma longa; also called turmeric, haldi, or haridara in the East and curry powder in the West), has been consumed by people for centuries as a dietary component and for a variety of proinflammatory ailments. Extensive research within the last decade in cell culture and in rodents has revealed that curcumin can sensitize tumo...
متن کاملThe role of amifostine as a radioprotector.
Effective radiotherapy for patients with cancer should include maximal tumor cell killing with minimal injury to normal tissue. Radiation doses that can be delivered, without causing severe damage to surrounding normal tissues, can be insufficient to eradicate a tumor. Agents have been developed to protect normal tissue from the toxicities of radiation. The aminothiol amifostine (Ethyol) is the...
