Protective effect of α-lipoic acid on oxidized low density lipoprotein-induced human umbilical vein endothelial cell injury.
The present study investigated the effect and possible mechanisms of α-lipoic acid (LA) in preventing endothelial cell injury induced by oxidized low-density lipoprotein (oxLDL). A model of human umbilical vein endothelial cell (HUVEC) injury was established by incubating the HUVECs with 200 μg/ml oxLDL. HUVECs were pre-treated with 0.1, 0.2 or 0.5 mmol/l of LA in the presence of oxLDL for 24 h...
متن کاملProtective effect of α-lipoic acid against radiation-induced fibrosis in mice
Radiation-induced fibrosis (RIF) is one of the most common late complications of radiation therapy. We found that α-lipoic acid (α-LA) effectively prevents RIF. In RIF a mouse model, leg contracture assay was used to test the in vivo efficacy of α-LA. α-LA suppressed the expression of pro-fibrotic genes after irradiation, both in vivo and in vitro, and inhibited the up-regulation of TGF-β1-medi...
متن کاملProtective effect of alpha-lipoic acid in lipopolysaccharide-induced endothelial fractalkine expression.
Fractalkine is a unique chemokine that functions as a chemoattractant as well as an adhesion molecule on endothelial cells activated by proinflammatory cytokines. Alpha-lipoic acid (LA), a naturally occurring dithiol compound, is an essential cofactor for mitochondrial bioenergetic enzymes. LA improves glycemic control, reduces diabetic polyneuropathies, and mitigates toxicity associated with h...
متن کاملThe Protective Effects of 5-Methoxytryptamine-α-lipoic Acid on Ionizing Radiation-Induced Hematopoietic Injury
Antioxidants are prospective radioprotectors because of their ability to scavenge radiation-induced reactive oxygen species (ROS). The hematopoietic system is widely studied in radiation research because of its high radiosensitivity. In the present study, we describe the beneficial effects of 5-methoxytryptamine-α-lipoic acid (MLA), which was synthesized from melatonin and α-lipoic acid, agains...
متن کاملEffect of Fidarestat and α-Lipoic Acid on Diabetes-Induced Epineurial Arteriole Vascular Dysfunction
In the present study, the authors examined whether treating streptozotocin-induced diabetic rats with the combination of alpha-lipoic acid and fidarestat, an aldose reductase inhibitor, can promote the formation of dihydrolipoic acid in diabetic animals and thereby enhance the efficacy of alpha-lipoic acid as monotherapy toward preventing diabetic vascular and neural dysfunction. Treating diabe...
