Glycyrrhizin ameliorates impaired glucose metabolism and ovarian dysfunction in a polycystic ovary syndrome mouse model.

The aim of this study was to determine the impact of glycyrrhizin, an inhibitor of high mobility group box 1, on glucose metabolic disorders and ovarian dysfunction in mice with polycystic ovary syndrome. We generated a polycystic ovary syndrome mouse model by using dehydroepiandrosterone plus high-fat diet. Glycyrrhizin (100 mg/kg) was intraperitoneally injected into the polycystic ovary syndrome mice and the effects on body weight, glucose tolerance, insulin sensitivity, estrous cycle, hormone profiles, ovarian pathology, glucolipid metabolism, and some molecular mechanisms were investigated.

Effects of Yulin Tong Bu formula on modulating gut microbiota and fecal metabolite interactions in mice with polycystic ovary syndrome.

Background: Polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) is a common endocrine disorder characterized by hyperandrogenism, ovarian dysfunction and polycystic ovarian morphology. Gut microbiota dysbiosis and metabolite are associated with PCOS clinical parameters. Yulin Tong Bu formula (YLTB), a traditional Chinese medicine formula, has been recently indicated to be capable of ameliorating polycystic ovary symptoms and correcting abnormal glucose metabolism.

Apoptosis in response to heat stress is positively associated with heat-shock protein 90 expression in chicken myocardial cells .

To determine heat-shock protein (Hsp)90 expression is connected with cellular apoptotic response to heat stress and its mechanism, chicken () primary myocardial cells were treated with the Hsp90 promoter, aspirin, and its inhibitor, geldanamycin (GA), before heat stress. Cellular viability, heat-stressed apoptosis and reactive oxygen species level under different treatments were measured, and the expression of key proteins of the signaling pathway related to Hsp90 and their colocalization with Hsp90 were detected. The results showed that aspirin treatment increased the expression of protein kinase B (Akt), the signal transducer and activator of transcription (STAT)-3 and p-IKKα/β and the colocalization of Akt and STAT-3 with Hsp90 during heat stress, which was accompanied by improved viability and low apoptosis.

Prostaglandin I₂ Attenuates Prostaglandin E₂-Stimulated Expression of Interferon γ in a β-Amyloid Protein- and NF-κB-Dependent Mechanism.

Cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) has been recently identified as being involved in the pathogenesis of Alzheimer's disease (AD). However, the role of an important COX-2 metabolic product, prostaglandin (PG) I2, in AD development remains unknown. Using mouse-derived astrocytes as well as APP/PS1 transgenic mice as model systems, we firstly elucidated the mechanisms of interferon γ (IFNγ) regulation by PGE2 and PGI2.

[Effects of hypoxia on the proliferation of human bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells].

Objective: To study the effect of hypoxia on the proliferation of human bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (hBMSCs).

Methods: The method of density gradient centrifugation was employed to isolate and culture hBMSCs. And flow cytometry (FCM) was employed to detect the cell surface marker.

[Effects of peptidoglycan on proliferation and cell cycle of human bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells].

This study was aimed to explore the effects of peptidoglycan (PGN) on proliferation and cell cycle of human bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs). MSCs were isolated from human bone marrow by density gradient centrifugation. The purity of MSCs with the spindle fibroblastic morphology was identified by microphotography and the phenotypes were detected by flow cytometry (FCM).

[Expression of Toll-like receptors in human bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells].

The aim of this study was to explore the characteristics of Toll-like receptor expression in mesenchymal stem cells derived from bone marrow of healthy donor (BM-MSCs). BM-MSCs were isolated from bone marrow of healthy donor by Ficoll method. Expressions of CD34, CD45, HLA-DR, CD44 and CD71 in BM-MSCs were detected by flow cytometry.
