Phosphocreatine ameliorates hepatocellular apoptosis mediated by protecting mitochondrial damage in liver ischemia/reperfusion injury through inhibiting TLR4 and Agonizing Akt Pathway.

Hepatic ischemia/reperfusion (HI/R) presents significant challenges in surgical liver transplantation and hepatic ischemic shock, with few effective clinical preventive measures available. This study explores the potential protective effects and underlying mechanisms of phosphocreatine (PCr) in the context of HI/R. We established an in vitro ischemia/reperfusion model using hepatocellular carcinoma HepG2 cells and normal liver L02 cells.

Anticancer mechanisms on pyroptosis induced by Oridonin: New potential targeted therapeutic strategies.

Pyroptosis is a type of inflammatory cell death that is triggered by the formation of pores on the cell membrane by gasdermin (GSDM) family proteins. This process activates inflammasomes and leads to the maturation and release of proinflammatory cytokines such as interleukin-1β (IL-1β) and interleukin-18 (IL-18). Pyroptosis, a form of programmed cell death, has been found to be associated with various biomolecules such as caspases, granzymes, non-coding RNA (lncRNA), reactive oxygen species (ROS), and NOD-like receptor protein 3 (NLRP3).

The neuroprotective effects of phosphocreatine on Amyloid Beta 25-35-induced differentiated neuronal cell death through inhibition of AKT /GSK-3β /Tau/APP /CDK5 pathways in vivo and vitro.

Alzheimer (AD) is a degenerative disease that can lead memory loss and behavioral dysfunction. Aβ protein and phosphorylation of Tau protein are related to the onset of AD. However, at present, its treatment and drugs are limited.

Se Regulates the Contractile Ability of Uterine Smooth Musclevia Selenoprotein N, Selenoprotein T, and Selenoprotein Win Mice.

Selenium (Se) is an essential micronutrient that maintains normal physiological functions in humans and animals. Se plays a vital role in regulating smooth muscle contractions, and selenoprotein N (SelN), selenoprotein T (SelT), and selenoprotein W (SelW) are closely related to the release of Ca. The present study analyzed the effects and mechanisms of SelN, SelT, and SelW in uterine smooth muscle contractions in a mouse model fed Se.
