A novel method for the rapid detection of post-translationally modified visinin-like protein 1 in rat models of brain injury.

Brain injury
BACKGROUND: Although elevated serum levels of visinin-like protein 1 (VILIP-1), a neuron-specific calcium sensor protein, are associated with ischaemic stroke, only a single study has evaluated VILIP-1 as a biomarker of traumatic brain injury (TBI). ...

ALE: automated label extraction from GEO metadata.

BMC bioinformatics
BACKGROUND: NCBI's Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) is a rich community resource containing millions of gene expression experiments from human, mouse, rat, and other model organisms. However, information about each experiment (metadata) is in the format...

Quantification and pharmacokinetics of alpinetin in rat plasma by UHPLC-MS/MS using protein precipitation coupled with dilution approach to eliminate matrix effects.

Journal of pharmaceutical and biomedical analysis
Alpinetin, a bioactive flavonoid, has attracted great attention due to its diverse therapeutic effects, namely anti-oxidant, anti-tumor and anti-inflammatory effects with low systemic toxicity. Various determination methods have been developed in qua...

Cupuaçu extract reduces nitrosative stress and modulates inflammatory mediators in the kidneys of experimental diabetes.

Clinical nutrition (Edinburgh, Scotland)
BACKGROUND & AIMS: We have previously reported an increased nitrosative stress in the kidneys of diabetic animals, which was reduced by an antioxidant probiotic. The present study evaluated whether the extract of cupuaçu (EC), an antioxidant compound...

Chemical characterization, antioxidant, genotoxic and in vitro cytotoxic activity assessment of Juniperus communis var. saxatilis.

Food and chemical toxicology : an international journal published for the British Industrial Biological Research Association
Chemical composition and antioxidative, genotoxic and cytotoxic potential of essential oil (EO) and post-distillation waste (PDW) of Serbian Juniperus communis L. var. saxatilis Pall. was studied in human lung carcinoma (A549) and normal lung fibrobl...

Gas chromatography-mass spectrometry metabolomic study of lipopolysaccharides toxicity on rat basophilic leukemia cells.

Chemico-biological interactions
Lipopolysaccharide (LPS) can lead to uncontrollable cytokine production, fatal sepsis syndrome and depression/multiple organ failure, as pathophysiologic demonstration. Various toxic effects of LPS have been extensively reported, mainly on the toxici...

Unsupervised Network Analysis of the Plastic Supraoptic Nucleus Transcriptome Predicts Caprin2 Regulatory Interactions.

eNeuro
The supraoptic nucleus (SON) is a group of neurons in the hypothalamus responsible for the synthesis and secretion of the peptide hormones vasopressin and oxytocin. Following physiological cues, such as dehydration, salt-loading and lactation, the SO...

Identification and characterization of the structure-activity relationships involved in UGT1A1 inhibition by anthraquinone and dianthrone constituents of Polygonum multiflorum.

Scientific reports
The adverse effects of Polygonum (P.) multiflorum, including abnormal bilirubin metabolism, are a serious public health issue. As uridine diphosphate (UDP)-glucuronosyltransferase 1A1 (UGT1A1) is the only enzyme responsible for bilirubin metabolism, ...

ω-3 Fatty Acid Synergized Novel Nanoemulsifying System for Rosuvastatin Delivery: In Vitro and In Vivo Evaluation.

AAPS PharmSciTech
The present study was undertaken to improve rosuvastatin (RSV) bioavailability and pharmacological response through formation of SNES using Perilla frutescens oil as lipid carrier. The composition of oil was estimated by fatty acid methyl ester (FAME...

Effects of docosahexaenoic acid on locomotor activity in ethanol-treated HIV-1 transgenic rats.

Journal of neurovirology
Binge drinking affects the onset and progression of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-associated neurological disorders. The HIV-1 transgenic (HIV-1Tg) rat was created with a gag- and pol-deleted HIV-1 viral genome to mimic HIV-infected patients rec...
