Lamellarin D Acts as an Inhibitor of Type I Collagen Production

ChemMedChem, EarlyView.
COL1A2 gene, encoding type I collagen, is a key target for pulmonary fibrosis. We established a screening system to identify small molecules that inhibit COL1A2 gene expression. Using this system, we screen a library of compounds and identify lamellarin D as a potent inhibitor of COL1A2 expression, suggesting lamellarin D is a promising new lung ...

The effect of portacaval transposition on carbohydrate metabolism: Experimental and clinical observations [PDF]

, 1965
An investigation was conducted of the influence of portacaval transposition upon carbohydrate metabolism in 45 dogs. In 17 dogs, hepatic glycogen content was measured before and from 45 to 75 days after transposition.

Inherited metabolic epilepsies–established diseases, new approaches

Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Inherited metabolic epilepsies (IMEs) represent the inherited metabolic disorders (IMDs) in which epilepsy is a prevailing component, often determining other neurodevelopmental outcomes associated with the disorder. The different metabolic pathways affected by individual IMEs are the basis of their rarity and heterogeneity.

Genetic epilepsies with myoclonic seizures: Mechanisms and syndromes

Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Genetic epilepsy with myoclonic seizures encompasses a heterogeneous spectrum of conditions, ranging from benign and self‐limiting forms to severe, progressive disorders. While their causes are diverse, a significant proportion stems from genetic abnormalities.

Exploring the Neuroprotective Role of Selenium: Implications and Perspectives for Central Nervous System Disorders

Exploration, EarlyView.
Selenium (Se) is a crucial element in selenoproteins, key biomolecules for physiological function in vivo. Central nervous system can express all 25 kinds of selenoproteins, which protect neurons by reducing oxidative stress and inflammatory response. Neuroprotection is being investigated through the biological study of Se.

Structural Characterization, Phenolic Acid Modification, and Antioxidant Activities of Polysaccharide From Mogroside Waste Liquid of Siraitia grosvenorii

Food Frontiers, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT To improve the comprehensive utilization of Siraitia grosvenorii (Swingle) C. Jeffrey, a novel polysaccharide (SGP) was isolated from the mogroside waste liquid of S. grosvenorii. In addition, ferulic acid–SGP (FA‐SGP) and caffeic acid–SGP (CA‐SGP) were prepared by modifying SGP with phenolic acid.

Exploring the Molecular Pathways Underlying the Anti‐Diabetic Effects of Millets

Food Safety and Health, EarlyView.
Millet consumption may modulate gluconeogenesis and glycolysis, enhance glucose transporter activity, increase leptin levels, inhibit the NF‐κB pathway, and mitigate oxidative and nitrosative stress. ABSTRACT Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a metabolic disorder characterized by hyperglycemic conditions resulting from inadequate insulin production or ...

Skeletal Muscle Glycogen Chain Length Correlates with Insolubility in Mouse Models of Polyglucosan-Associated Neurodegenerative Diseases

Cell Reports, 2019
Summary: Lafora disease (LD) and adult polyglucosan body disease (APBD) are glycogen storage diseases characterized by a pathogenic buildup of insoluble glycogen. Mechanisms causing glycogen insolubility are poorly understood.
