Acute liver failure is a devastating illness of various causes with considerable mortality. Hepatic stimulator substance (HSS) has been suggested for use as a protective agent against acute hepatic injury induced by chemical poisons because it has a variety of biological activities. However, the mechanism whereby HSS protects against hepatotoxins is poorly understood. In this study, we establis...
Citation: Javadov S (2015) The calcium-ROS-pH triangle and mitochondrial permeability transition: challenges to mimic cardiac ischemia-reperfusion. Reperfusion of the heart following sustained ischemia is associated with enhanced reactive oxygen species (ROS) production, Ca 2+ accumulation, and pH i normalization that are the major induc-ers of mitochondrial permeability transition (mPT). Despi...
OBJECTIVE Diminishing oxidative stress may protect the heart against ischaemia-reperfusion injury by preventing opening of the mitochondrial permeability transition (MPT) pore. The general anaesthetic agent propofol, a free radical scavenger, has been investigated for its effect on the MPT and its cardioprotective action following global and cardioplegic ischaemic arrest. METHOD Isolated perf...
PURPOSE To investigate the mechanism underlying apoptosis in retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) induced by TNF-alpha in conditions of heavy metal ion deficiency. METHODS Apoptotic morphology was assessed with Hoechst 33342. FITC-VAD-fmk or antibody specific to cleaved caspase 3 was used to detect in situ activated caspases or cleaved caspase 3, respectively. JC-1 and carboxylated dichlorodihydr...

Hemorrhagic shock leads to hepatic hypoperfusion and activation of mitogen-activated stress kinases (MAPK) like c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK) 1 and 2. Our aim was to determine whether mitochondrial dysfunction leading to hepatic necrosis and apoptosis after hemorrhage/resuscitation (H/R) was dependent on JNK2. Under pentobarbital anesthesia, wildtype (WT) and JNK2 deficient (KO) mice were hemor...
A possible involvement of inhibitory effects of monochlorobimane (MCB) on the opening of mitochondrial permeability transition (MPT) pore in the cerebroprotection against the ischemic brain injury was examined. MCB (1 mM) inhibited the opening of MPT pore in vitro. Sustained cerebral ischemia was induced by injecting 900 microspheres (48 microm in diameter) into the right hemisphere of rats. At...
1,1-Dichloroethylene (DCE) causes dysfunction of hepatic mitochondria. As mitochondria have been implicated in apoptosis through opening of the permeability transition pore (PTP), we have undertaken studies to test the hypothesis that DCE induces apoptosis, in addition to necrosis, in murine liver. Our primary objective was to identify the biochemical events associated with DCE-induced apoptosi...
Background Excessive accumulation of amyloid β-protein (Aβ) is one the primary mechanisms that leads to neuronal death with phosphorylated tau in pathogenesis Alzheimer’s disease (AD). Protofibrils, high-molecular-weight Aβ oligomers (HMW-Aβo), are implicated be important targets modifying therapy AD. We previously reported phenolic compounds such as myricetin inhibit Aβ1-40, Aβ1-42, and α-synu...
The cytosolic small heat shock protein alphaB-crystallin (alphaBC) is a molecular chaperone expressed in large quantities in the heart, where it protects from stresses such as ischemia-reperfusion (I/R). Upon I/R, p38 MAP kinase activation leads to phosphorylation of alphaBC on Ser(59) (P-alphaBC-S59), which increases its protective ability. alphaBC confers protection, in part, by interacting w...
