Attenuation of Focal Cerebral Ischemic Injury Following Post Ischemic Inhibition of Angiotensin Converting Enzyme (ACE) Activity in Normotensive Rat [PDF]
Central renin angiotensin system has an important role on the cerebral microcirculation and metabolism. Our previous work showed that inhibition of angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) activity prior to induction of ischemia protected the brain from ...

Inhibition studies of the protozoan α-carbonic anhydrase from Trypanosoma cruzi with phenols
The α-class carbonic anhydrase (CA, EC 4.2.1.1) from the protozoan pathogen Trypanosoma cruzi, TcCA, was investigated earlier for its inhibition with anions, sulphonamides, thiols and hydroxamates, well-known classes of CA inhibitors (CAIs).

ABSTRACT Introduction Hyperlipidemia is a major risk factor for atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD). Although statins are the cornerstone of lipid‐lowering therapy, their use may be limited in some patients by adverse effects. This study evaluated the possible impact of non‐drug treatment using double‐filtration plasmapheresis (DFPP) on CD14+

ANTI-DIABETIC POTENTIAL OF PEPTIDE FROM P. NIRURI REVEALS THROUGH CARBOHYDRATE HYDROLYZING ENZYME INHIBITION ASSAY [PDF]
Herb Phyllanthus niruri (P. niruri) is known to have various pharmacological functions including anti-diabetic properties. In this research, protein extracts from different plant parts (leave, fruit and stem) of P. niruri were investigated for their anti-

Enteropathogenic E. coli (EPEC) infects the human intestinal epithelium, resulting in severe illness and diarrhoea. In this study, we compared the infection of cancer‐derived cell lines with human organoid‐derived models of the small intestine. We observed a delayed in attachment, inflammation and cell death on primary cells, indicating that host ...

Gut microbiome and aging—A dynamic interplay of microbes, metabolites, and the immune system
Age‐dependent shifts in microbial communities engender shifts in microbial metabolite profiles. These in turn drive shifts in barrier surface permeability of the gut and brain and induce immune activation. When paired with preexisting age‐related chronic inflammation this increases the risk of neuroinflammation and neurodegenerative diseases.

Exploring of some benzoquinone derivatives impact on Acetylcholinesterase enzyme activity
The discovery of acetylcholinesterase inhibitors is important for the treatment of Alzheimer's disease, which is the most common type of dementia. Due to the side effects of commonly used acetylcholinesterase inhibitors, studies aimed at discovering new
