Myelin Protection by Ursolic Acid in Cuprizone-Induced Demyelination in Mice
Neuronal survival in multiple sclerosis (MS) and other demyelinating diseases depends on the preservation of myelin and remyelination of axons. Myelin protection is the main purpose to decrease myelin damage in the central nervous system (CNS). Ursolic acid (UA) as a natural product in apple is suggested to protect neural cells. This study is the first to demonstrate an effect for UA on CNS mye...

متن کاملRosmarinic Acid Ameliorates Diabetic Nephropathy in Uninephrectomized Diabetic Rats
Objective(s) Oxidative stress plays an important role in diabetic nephropathy pathogenesis. Rosmarinic acid, a plant phenolic compound, was first used as an antioxidant agent for inhibition of diabetic nephropathy. Material and Methods Forty male rats were uninephrectomized from the left flank.The rats were divided in four groups randomly; group one as control, group two diabetic untreatment...
متن کاملUrsolic acid inhibits early lesions of diabetic nephropathy.
The present study sought to investigate the effects of ursolic acid (UA) on the development of glomerular hypertrophy and type IV collagen accumulation, two early lesions associated with diabetic nephropathy (DN). By treating streptozotocin (STZ)-induced diabetic mice with low-dose UA (0.01% in food) for three months, the diabetes-induced glomerular hypertrophy and type IV collagen accumulation...
متن کاملPreconditioning provides complete protection against retinal ischemic injury in rats.
PURPOSE The objectives of this study were to examine whether preconditioning can decrease ischemic damage to the retina, by electroretinographic assessment of visual function and by histologic examination of retinal structure; to investigate the time course of the effectiveness of preconditioning; and to determine whether protein synthesis is involved. METHODS Retinal ischemia was produced fo...
