Time of day-dependent alterations of ferroptosis in LPS-induced myocardial injury via Bmal-1/AKT/ Nrf2 in rat and H9c2 cell.

Background: One of the most prevalent causes of death in sepsis is sepsis-induced cardiomyopathy (SICM). Circadian disruption is involved in the progress of sepsis. However, the molecular mechanism remains unclear.

Animal model of coronary microembolization under transthoracic echocardiographic guidance in rats.

The aim of the study was to develop a model of coronary microembolization (CME) in rats at a lower cost. We developed a novel rat model without thoracotomy and ventilation under the guidance of echocardiography. Rats were sacrificed at 3 h, 24 h and 1 month postoperatively in both the Echo-CME and Open-chest CME groups for the comparison of the modeling accuracy, mortality, cardiopulmonary circulation, pleural adhesion and ventilation-induced lung injury (VILI).

Puerarin promotes the viability and differentiation of MC3T3-E1 cells by enhancing LC3B-mediated autophagy through downregulation of miR-204.

Puerarin is a bioactive substance extracted from . It is known to promote the viability, differentiation and mineralization of osteoblasts. However, the molecular mechanisms involved in these activities are not well understood.

Effect of Kangshuanyihao Formula on the Inflammatory Reaction and SIRT1/TLR4/NF-B Signaling Pathway in Endothelial Injury.

Endothelial injury plays an important role in atherosclerosis (AS). Kangshuanyihao formula uses therapeutic principles from Chinese medicine to supplement Qi, thereby promoting blood circulation, and remove blood stasis. The mechanism by which the formula inhibits endothelial injury was examined in a rat model of 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D (VD) intraperitoneal injection and high-fat-induced endothelial injury.
