Histone Deacetylase Inhibitors as a Promising Treatment Against Myocardial Infarction: A Systematic Review.

Acute myocardial infarction (AMI) is a critical medical condition that requires immediate attention to minimise heart damage and improve survival rates. Early identification and prompt treatment are essential to save the patient's life. Currently, the treatment strategy focuses on restoring blood flow to the myocardium as quickly as possible.

From Genetics to Psychosocial Functioning: Unraveling the Mediating Roles of Cognitive Reserve, Cognition, and Negative Symptoms in First-Episode Psychosis.

Background: Studies have shown associations between polygenic risk scores for educational attainment (PRS), cognitive reserve (CR), cognition, negative symptoms (NS), and psychosocial functioning in first-episode psychosis (FEP). However, their specific interactions remain unclear. This study aimed to investigate the mediating roles of CR, cognition, and NS in the relationship between PRS and psychosocial functioning one year after a FEP.

Sodium valproate reverses aortic hypercontractility in acute myocardial infarction in rabbits.

Sympathetic nervous system (SNS), endothelin 1 (ET-1) and angiotensin II (Ang II) are involved in the pathophysiology of acute myocardial infarction (AMI). Valproic acid (VPA) is under study for the treatment against AMI due to its beneficial cardiac effects. However, the vascular effects of VPA on the activation of the SNS, ET-1 and Ang II after AMI are not fully studied.

Effect of Probiotics on Gastrointestinal Health Through the Aryl Hydrocarbon Receptor Pathway: A Systematic Review.

Probiotics are living microorganisms recognized for conferring health benefits on the host by modulating the gut microbiota. They interact with various signaling pathways, including the aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR), which plays a crucial role in maintaining intestinal homeostasis and immune function. The activation of AhR by probiotics has been associated with benefits such as improved intestinal barrier function, reduced inflammation, and modulation of immune responses.

Involvement of Aryl Hydrocarbon Receptor in Longevity and Healthspan: Insights from Humans, Mice, and .

In previous studies, using transcriptomic analysis, we observed higher levels of aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AHR) gene expression in the peripheral blood cells of centenarians compared to octogenarians. This suggests the potential significance of this receptor in maintaining physiological balance and promoting healthy aging, possibly linked to its critical role in detoxifying xenobiotics. In our current study, we confirmed that AHR expression is indeed higher in centenarians.
