Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors for hypertension
Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors (PPARs) are ligand-activated transcription factors belonging to the nuclear receptor superfamily, which is composed of four members encoded by distinct genes (α, β, γ, and δ). The genes undergo transactivation or transrepression under specific mechanisms that lead to the induction or repression of target gene

LPS-induced Pellino3 degradation is mediated by p62-dependent autophagy [PDF]
Background: In macrophages Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) is activated in response to lipopolysaccharide (LPS) and induces proinflammatory cytokine expression. Therefore, mechanisms terminating proinflammatory gene expression are important.

Bilirubin as a Modulator of WNK1 Protein Signaling: Implications for Neuroinflammatory Diseases
ABSTRACT Previously regarded merely as a potentially harmful waste product of heme catabolism, bilirubin has now emerged as a pleiotropic molecule with potent antioxidant, anti‐inflammatory, and hormone‐like properties. Recent findings have revealed protective effects against cardiovascular, metabolic, autoimmune, and neoplastic diseases, as well as ...

Janus kinase 2 inhibition by pacritinib as potential therapeutic target for liver fibrosis
Diagram of the activation of the profibrotic and procontractile Janus kinase 2 (JAK2)/Ras homolog family member A/Rho‐kinase pathway and the inhibition of phosphorylated JAK2 by pacritinib to inhibit hepatic stellate cell activity. Abstract Background and Aims Janus kinase 2 (JAK2) signaling is increased in human and experimental liver fibrosis with ...

Downregulation of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors (PPARs) in nasal polyposis
Background Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor (PPAR) α, βδ and γ are nuclear receptors activated by fatty acid metabolites. An anti-inflammatory role for these receptors in airway inflammation has been suggested.

The Effect of Peroxisome Proliferator-Activated Receptors (PPARs) in Male Fertility
Nowadays, infertility is one of the most common problems in the world. Statistics show that about 20.2% of Iranian couples are infertile, which is higher than the global average (12-15 percent); and according to the reports, 70% of these disabilities had

TAK1-dependent autophagy: A suppressor of fatty liver disease and hepatic oncogenesis. [PDF]
In addition to regulating the activation of nuclear factor (NF)-κB and c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK), TGF-β activated kinase 1 (TAK1) also upregulates the activation of AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) and autophagy.

A neutrophil‐mediated dual‐targeting liposome (NKN‐LNP) is developed to treat renal ischemia–reperfusion injury. The system enables spatiotemporally controlled delivery of NMN to injured tubules via MMP‐2/9 activation and KIM1 recognition, restoring mitochondrial function through NAD+‐SIRT3 signaling and preventing the transition from acute kidney ...
