Quercetin alleviates inflammation induced by porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus in MARC-145 cells through the regulation of arachidonic acid and glutamine metabolism. [PDF]
PRRSV stimulation resulted in hydrolysis of glycerophospholipids to release linoleic acid and arachidonic acid, activating the NF‐κB pathway and inducing inflammation. After intervention with quercetin, it reduced the production of linoleic acid and arachidonic acid, increased glutamine content, blocked NF‐κB pathway activation, and reduced the levels ...

Influence of natural and synthetic estrogens on the course of autoimmune disease in the nzb/nzw mouse [PDF]
Antinuclear antibodies were found in 64% of serum samples obtained from male NZB/NZW mice after 6 weeks of treatment with mestranol. Both female and male mice responded to this synthetic female hormone with marked elevations of serum Α 2 - and Β ...

Abstract Female sex is associated with higher incidence and risk of dementia. Estrogen may represent one important mechanism contributing to the increase in incidence rates. In this review, we synthesize narratively the evidence for associations between estrogen—across the life course from menarche to menopause, estrogen‐containing hormonal ...
