The beneficial effects of traditional Chinese medicine on antioxidative status and inflammatory cytokines expression in the liver of piglets.

Oxidative stress and inflammation seriously affected the growth and development of piglets. Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) prescriptions has been used to prevent various diseases of piglets, including anti-inflammatory and antioxidant. Here, we identified the effects of Xiao-Jian-Zhong-Tang (XJZT) and Jingsananli-sepsis (JJS) on the oxidative stress and inflammatory in the liver of piglets.

Two kinds of traditional Chinese medicine prescriptions reduce thymic inflammation levels and improve humoral immunity of finishing pigs.

In animal husbandry, traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) as a reasonable alternative to antibiotics has attracted more and more concerns to reduce microbial resistance. This study was aimed to investigate the effects of dietary supplementation with TCM prescriptions on serum parameters and thymus inflammation responses in finishing pigs. Thirty finishing pigs were randomly divided into three groups, which included the Con group (basal diet), the TCM1 group (basal diet supplemented with prescriptions), and the TCM2 group (basal diet supplemented with -sepsis).

New sight into interaction between endoplasmic reticulum stress and autophagy induced by vanadium in duck renal tubule epithelial cells.

Vanadium (V) is a common environmental and industrial pollutant that can cause nephrotoxicity in animals in excess. The purpose of this research was to explore the interaction between endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress and autophagy induced by V in the kidney of ducks. Duck renal tubule epithelial cells were exposed to different concentrations of sodium metavanadate (NaVO) (0, 100 and 200 μM) and PERK inhibitor (GSK, 1 μM), or autophagy inhibitor (chloroquine, 50 μM) alone for 24 h (chloroquine for the last 4 h).

Selenium alleviates cadmium-induced aging via mitochondrial quality control in the livers of sheep.

Cadmium (Cd) is a heavy metal with toxicity that induces mitochondrial dysfunction and aging, and selenium (Se) can alleviate its toxicity. However, the underlying mechanism of Se alleviating Cd-induced aging in sheep livers deserves further study. This study was to explore the protective mechanism of Se on the Cd-induced aging in the livers of sheep.

MiR-101 Protects Against the Cerebral I/R Injury Through Regulating JAK2/STAT3 Signaling Pathway.

Background: Ischemic stroke is a devastating disease with very limited therapeutics. Although miR-101 has been reported to play crucial roles in various human diseases, its role in ischemic stroke remains unclear.

Methods: Ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury neuronal cells and rat model with I/R injury were constructed.

Depressive State in the Emergency Department During COVID-19: A National Cross-Sectional Survey in China.

Chinese emergency department (ED) staff encountered significant mental stress while fighting the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic. We sought to investigate the prevalence and associated factors for depressive symptoms among ED staff (including physicians, nurses, allied health, and auxiliary ED staff). A cross-sectional national survey of ED staff who were on duty and participated in combating the COVID-19 pandemic was conducted March 1-15, 2020.

Volume-sensitive outwardly rectifying chloride channel blockers protect against high glucose-induced apoptosis of cardiomyocytes via autophagy activation.

Hyperglycemia is a well-characterized contributing factor for cardiac dysfunction and heart failure among diabetic patients. Apoptosis of cardiomyocytes plays a major role during the onset and pathogenesis of diabetic cardiomyopathy (DCM). Nonetheless, the molecular machinery underlying hyperglycemia-induced cardiac damage and cell death remains elusive.

A novel endoplasmic reticulum stress‑induced apoptosis model using tunicamycin in primary cultured neonatal rat cardiomyocytes.

Endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress is key in the development of cardiovascular diseases. However, there is a lack of a systemic ER stress‑induced cardiomyocyte apoptosis model. In the present study, primary cultured neonatal rat cardiomyocytes were exposed to tunicamycin.

Baicalin protects the cardiomyocytes from ER stress-induced apoptosis: inhibition of CHOP through induction of endothelial nitric oxide synthase.

Baicalin, the main active ingredient of the Scutellaria root, exerts anti-oxidant and anti-apoptotic effects in cardiovascular diseases. However, the therapeutic mechanism of baicalin remains unknown. Cultured neonatal rat cardiomyocytes were pre-treated with baicalin (0-50 µM) for 24 h, and subsequently treated with tunicamycin (100 ng/ml).
