Ameliorative Effect of Trevo Dietary Supplement Against Lead Acetate Nephrotoxicity
Background: Trevo is a nutritional supplement with numerous bioactive natural products, with detoxifying and antioxidant properties. The purpose of this study was to investigate the ability of Trévo to protect against oxidative stress induced by lead in the kidneys of male Wistar rats. Methods: Thirty-five healthy male Wistar rats were divided into five groups of seven rats each, using a rand...
متن کاملNeuroprotective effect of geranylgeranylacetone against ischemia-induced retinal injury.
PURPOSE This study was conducted to assess the effects of geranylgeranylacetone (GGA) on ischemia-induced retinal injury. METHODS Adult C57BL/6J mice were given oral treatments of GGA at 200 mg/kg daily for seven days. Ischemic retinal injury was carried out, and the extent of retinal cell death was quantitatively examined after 7 days. Immunohistochemistry for single-stranded DNA, phosphoryl...
متن کاملNeuroprotective Effect of Salvianolic Acids against Cerebral Ischemia/Reperfusion Injury
This study investigated the neuroprotective effect of salvianolic acids (SA) against ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury, and explored whether the neuroprotection was dependent on mitochondrial connexin43 (mtCx43) via the phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase/protein kinase B (PI3K/AKT) pathway. In vitro, we measured astrocyte apoptosis, mitochondrial membrane potential, and also evaluated the morphology...
متن کاملNeuroprotective Effect of Fagopyrum dibotrys Extract against Alzheimer's Disease
Accumulated evidence suggests that polyphenolic antioxidants present in herbs play important roles in prevention of AD; the molecular mechanisms behind neuroprotective actions rely on the phenols through different effects on the amyloid-aggregation pathway. Fagopyrum dibotrys is a traditional herbal medicine which contains high quantity phenols. In present study, we investigate the beneficial p...
متن کاملNeuroprotective effect of resveratrol against glutamate-induced excitotoxicity.
As the major neurotransmitter in the mammalian central nervous system (CNS), excessive extracellular glutamate (Glu) can activate the Glu receptors and neuronal calcium (Ca2+) overload, then produce neurotoxicity, which is a common pathway for neuronal injury or death, and is associated with acute and chronic neurodegenerative diseases. Therefore, it has been a therapeutic strategy to investiga...
