Move beyond free radical theory of aging

iMetaOmics, EarlyView.
Free radicals play a dual, dose‐dependent role in aging. Low levels activate the key sensor adenosine 5'‐monophosphate‐activated protein kinase (AMPK), promoting cell survival mechanisms like autophagy and enhancing mitochondrial health. High levels, however, push AMPK to initiate cell death pathways, such as apoptosis. This positions AMPK as a central

In Vitro Evaluation of the Inhibitory Effects of Linarin on Histamine‐Induced Expression of Proinflammatory Cytokines, Mucin 5AC, and Aquaporin 5 in Human Nasal and Bronchial Epithelial Cells

The Kaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Allergic rhinitis and asthma are two prevalent chronic allergic conditions in children. Linarin, a glycosylated flavonoid derived from various plants, exhibits a wide range of biological activities. This study aimed to investigate the therapeutic potential of linarin against allergic rhinitis and asthma.

Aquaporins in the Colon as a New Therapeutic Target in Diarrhea and Constipation

International Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2016
Aquaporins (AQPs) play important roles in the water transport system in the human body. There are currently 13 types of AQP, AQP0 through AQP12, which are expressed in various organs.

MpTCP1 controls cell proliferation and redox processes in Marchantia polymorpha

, 2019
TCP transcription factors are key regulators of angiosperm cell proliferation processes. It is unknown whether their regulatory growth capacities are conserved across land plants, which we examined in liverworts, one of the earliest diverging land plant ...

Bridging Psychological Stress and Skin Cellular Aging: Flavonoids as a Dual‐Action Therapeutic Strategy

Phytotherapy Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Psychological stress (or simply “stress”) is a major contributor to chronic disease worldwide, affecting 35% of the global population, including younger generations. Furthermore, it plays a significant role in human premature aging; hence, its detrimental effects on people's health compel us to comprehend and control the ways in which ...

Leveraging Electrochemical Diversity in Engineering Liquid‐State Ionic Devices for Neuromorphic Computing

Small, EarlyView.
Mixed‐ion transport through Å‐scale pores exhibits various functions, including voltage activation, voltage inactivation, nanopulse generation, and synaptic behavior. Our work reveals that one of the fundamental advantages of ionic computing over electronic computingthe diversity of charge carriersdirectly translates into functional diversity in the ...
