Effect of spermidine on long non-coding RNAs MALAT1 in a rotenone induced-rat model of Parkinson's disease.

Background: Spermidine is a natural biologically active substance that has widespread influences on the body.

Objective: This study aims to enhance our understanding of the potential effect of spermidine on long non-coding RNA MALAT1 and explore the underlying mechanism in the rotenone-induced rat model of Parkinson's disease.

Methods: Rats were sacrificed after locomotor behavioral testing.

Sericin and melatonin mitigate diethylnitrosamine-instigated testicular impairment in mice: Implications of oxidative stress, spermatogenesis, steroidogenesis, and modulation of Nrf2/WT1/SF-1 signaling pathways.

Aims: This study aimed to investigate the therapeutic influence of combination therapy with sericin and melatonin on attenuating diethylnitrosamine (DEN)-instigated testicular dysfunction in mice and defining the molecular mechanisms involved in orchestrating redox signaling pathways and restoring spermatogenesis and steroidogenesis.

Materials And Methods: Different groups of male Swiss albino mice were established and injected with respective drugs intraperitoneally. Semen analysis, hormonal assays, and oxidative stress biomarkers were evaluated.

Reversal Effects of Royal Jelly and Propolis Against Cadmium-Induced Hepatorenal Toxicity in Rats.

Heavy metal toxicity is an exponentially growing health problem. In this study, we aimed to assess the protective properties of propolis and royal jelly against cadmium adverse effects. Thirty-two adult male rats were included in our study; kidney and liver functions, histopathological changes, and the level of oxidative stress were evaluated in rats exposed to a daily dose of 4.

HR LC-MS/MS metabolomic profiling of Yucca aloifolia fruit and the potential neuroprotective effect on rotenone-induced Parkinson's disease in rats.

Yucca aloifolia L. fruit (Yucca or Spanish bayonet, family Asparagaceae) is recognized for its purplish red color reflecting its anthocyanin content, which has a powerful antioxidant activity. This study aimed to investigate yucca (YA) fruit extract's protective effect on Parkinson's disease (PD).

Effect of icariin in a rat model of colchicine-induced cognitive deficit: role of βamyloid proteolytic enzymes.

The deposition of β-amyloid plaques, either due to their over-production or insufficient clearance, is an important pathological process in cognitive impairment and dementia. Icariin (ICA), a flavonoid compound extracted from Epimedium, has recently gained attention for numerous age-related diseases, such as neurodegenerative diseases. We aimed to explore the possible neuro-protective effect of ICA supplementation in colchicine-induced cognitive deficit rat model and exploring its effect on the β-amyloid proteolytic enzymes.

Potential mechanisms underlying the association between type II diabetes mellitus and cognitive dysfunction in rats: a link between miRNA-21 and Resveratrol's neuroprotective action.

Cognitive impairment is considered as a typical feature of neurodegenerative diseases in diabetes mellitus (DM). However, the exact link between cognitive dysfunction and diabetes mellitus is still vague. This study aims to investigate some of the mechanisms underlying cognitive impairment that associates diabetes mellitus and insulin resistance.

A study of the cardioprotective effect of spermidine: A novel inducer of autophagy.

Acute myocardial infarction (AMI) is an instant death of cardiomyocytes that ends in a large mortality worldwide. Thus, there is a great interest to come up with novel protective approaches for AMI to mount cardiomyocyte survival, enhance postinfarcted cardiac function, and countermand the process of cardiac remodeling. Spermidine has vital roles in vast cellular processes under pathophysiological circumstances.
