Therapeutic Effects of Liposomal Resveratrol in the Mitigation of Diabetic Nephropathy via Modulating Inflammatory Response, Oxidative Stress, and Apoptosis.

An important factor in the development of diabetes and its associated consequences is prolonged chronic hyperglycemia, which weakens the antioxidant defense system and produces reactive oxygen species. Phytochemicals have been found to scavenge free radicals and exhibit antioxidant effects necessary to increase insulin sensitivity and reduce the development of diabetes-related complications. Current treatments for managing diabetes and diabetic nephropathy are often not very effective and come with several limitations and side effects.

The Potential Protective Role of Naringenin against Dasatinib-Induced Hepatotoxicity.

Dasatinib (DASA) is a novel tyrosine kinase inhibitor, approved for leukemia treatment. However, the long-term use of DASA induces several complications, especially liver damage. On the other hand, Naringenin (NGN) is a potent antioxidant and anti-inflammatory agent which is known to exert protective effects in several liver disease animal models.

Hydroxychloroquine ameliorates dasatinib-induced liver injury via decrease in hepatic lymphocytes infiltration.

Dasatinib is an effective treatment for chronic myeloid leukemia. However, cases of idiosyncratic hepatotoxicity were reported. This study was conducted to investigate the chemopreventive effects of hydroxychloroquine against dasatinib-induced hepatotoxicity.
