Abstract Bothrops snakes cause around 80% of snakebites in Brazil, with muscle tissue damage as an important consequence, which may cause dysfunction on the affected limb. Bothropstoxin-I (BthTX-I) from Bothrops jararacussu is a K49-phospholipase A2, involved in the injury and envenomation’s inflammatory response. Immune system components act in the resolution of tissue damage and regeneration. Thus, macrophages exert a crucial role in the elimination of dead tissue and muscle...
Abstract Pseudoginsenoside-F11 (PF11), an ocotillol-type saponin, has been reported to have anti-inflammatory properties, but the effects of PF11 on acute lung inflammation were unknown. The present study aimed to investigate the protective effects and potential mechanisms of PF11 on lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced acute lung injury (ALI) in male BALB/c mice. After being treated with PF11 (3, 10, and 30 mg/kg, intravenous) once a...
Abstract Integrins can function synergistically with syndecan-4 (SYND4) and bind to the fibronectin (FN) matrix, resulting in the regulation of tissue regeneration. This study aimed to explore the effects of TNF-α on the formation of FN/ITGβ1/SYND4 complex and the relative mechanism in NP cells. The expression of FN-ITG-SYND4 at the cellular level under TNF-α stimulation was detected by immunofluorescent staining, western blotting, and RT-PCR. ITGβ1 is a crucial component of...
Abstract Hemarthrosis is the primary cause of hemophiliac arthropathy (HA). Pro-inflammatory cytokines are thought to play an important role in the pathogenesis of HA, and thus, anti-cytokine approaches may be used as an adjuvant therapy. A novel series of enaminone compounds (JODI), that contain the N-aryl piperazino motif, have been shown in vitro to reduce pro-inflammatory cytokines and thus may be efficacious in vivo. In this...
Abstract In this study, the effects of tyrosol were investigated in DSS-induced experimental ulcerative colitis model. For this purpose, rats were divided into five groups of seven rats in each: control group, colitis group (DSS-4%), tyrosol group (tyrosol 20 mg/kg), sulfasalazine (sulfasalazine+DSS 100 mg/kg), and treatment group (tyrosol+DSS 20 mg/kg). In the study, the active substances were administered to all animals for a period...
