Isolevuglandins and cardiovascular disease [PDF]

Prostaglandins & Other Lipid Mediators, 2018
Isolevuglandins are 4-ketoaldehydes formed by peroxidation of arachidonic acid. Isolevuglandins react rapidly with primary amines including the lysyl residues of proteins to form irreversible covalent modifications. This review highlights evidence for the potential role of isolevuglandin modification in the disease processes, especially atherosclerosis,

UiO‐66 metal–organic frameworks in biomedicine: From structural tunability to bioimaging, photodiagnostics, and photodynamic cancer therapy

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
UiO‐66(Zr) metal–organic frameworks are chemically stable, biocompatible, and highly tunable nanomaterials. Their modular structure enables controlled drug delivery, multimodal bioimaging, and light‐activated photodynamic therapy, supporting integrated diagnostic and therapeutic (theranostic) applications in cancer and biomedical research.

Depression and Cardiovascular Diseases

Annals of the Russian academy of medical sciences, 2014
Depression is considered to be an independent cardiovascular risk factor and it may worsen the symptoms of already established cardiovascular pathology such as coronary heart disease, chronic heart failure, stroke and hypertension. 3 key psychobiological mechanisms by means of which depression influences cardiovascular system: disbalance in stress ...

From energy provision to protein synthesis: Tunnelling nanotubes as mediators of intercellular metabolic cooperation in cancer

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
The cytoskeleton‐mediated transport of mitochondria via tunnelling nanotubes restores respiration, increases ATP production, rescues cells from apoptosis, activates the AKT/mTOR signalling pathway, promotes cell migration and invasiveness, contributes to cancer progression and treatment resistance.

Current status and etiology of valvular heart disease in China: a population-based survey

BMC Cardiovascular Disorders, 2021
Background The epidemiology of valvular heart disease (VHD) has changed markedly over the last 50 years worldwide, and the prevalence and features of VHD in China are unknown. The objective of this study was to investigate the current status and etiology

Tea and cardiovascular disease [PDF]

Pharmacological Research, 2011
There is increasing evidence for a protective effect of tea consumption against cardiovascular disease. This review summarizes the available epidemiological data providing evidence for and against such an effect. We also review observational and intervention studies that investigated an effect of tea and tea extracts on cardiovascular risk factors ...

Menopause and cardiovascular disease

Journal of Mid-life Health, 2019
Menopausal health demand priority in Indian scenario due to increase in life expectancy and growing population of menopausal women. Time demands to promote a multidisciplinary, multi-factorial, comprehensive approach to the care of these women. By the medium of this editorial and our experience in dealing women in advancing age in and around menopause,

In silico and in vitro exploration of a tyrosinase for biocatalytic production of catechols

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Tyrosinase from Ralstonia pseudosolanacearum is a promising biocatalyst for producing valuable catechols from monophenol substrates. This tyrosinase is uniquely suited to this due to its high monophenolase : diphenolase ratio. We combined in silico docking and in vivo kinetic characterisation of this tyrosinase with 11 industrially relevant monophenols,
