Liver X receptors as potential therapeutic targets in atherosclerosis.
PURPOSE Atherosclerosis is the primary independent risk factor of cardiovascular disease, and Liver X Receptors (LXRalpha and LXRbeta) activation may play an anti-atherosclerosis effect. In this article, we summarize the current state of knowledge of roles of LXRs in physiology and homeostasis as well as the links between LXR action and atherosclerosis, and discuss the potential therapeutic eff...
متن کاملUsing proteomics to identify potential therapeutic targets in platelets.
Proteomics has provided powerful new insights into the complex events of the anucleate platelet and has revealed many potential protein targets in the search for suitable agents for thrombotic disease. In the present study, we summarize recent proteomic approaches to analyse specific platelet subproteomes, such as the platelet releasate, the platelet phosphotyrosine proteome and characterizatio...
متن کاملDalteparin as a Novel Therapeutic Agent to Prevent Diabetic Encephalopathy by Targeting Oxidative Stress and Inflammation
Introduction: Hepcidin is the principal modulator of systemic iron metabolism, and its role in the brain has been clarified recently. Studies have shown hepcidin plays an important role for in neuronal iron load and inflammation. This is of significance because neuronal iron load and inflammation are pathophysiological processes that have been highly linked to neurodegeneration. Moreover, the a...
متن کاملP 61: MicroRNA as a Therapeutic Tool to Prevent Blood Brain Barrier Dysfunction in Neuroinflammation
Endothelial cells present in brain are unique and differ from other peripheral tissues in a number of ways, which ensures specific brain endothelial barrier properties. Endothelial dysfunction is the earliest event in the initiation of vascular damage caused by inflammation. Various microRNAs (miRNA) have been discovered in different cellular components of the blood bran barrier (BBB). miRNAs a...
متن کاملTelomeres and telomerase as therapeutic targets to prevent and treat age-related diseases
Telomeres, the protective ends of linear chromosomes, shorten throughout an individual's lifetime. Telomere shortening is a hallmark of molecular aging and is associated with premature appearance of diseases associated with aging. Here, we discuss the role of telomere shortening as a direct cause for aging and age-related diseases. In particular, we draw attention to the fact that telomere leng...
