Cisplatin (CIS) is a chemotherapeutic agent frequently used in cancer treatment. However, depending on the dosage and duration of use, CIS can lead to hepatotoxicity and nephrotoxicity. Iristectorin A (IRIS), a natural flavonoid, has been found to exhibit antioxidant and protective effects.

Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a conceivable new risk factor for cognitive disorder and dementia. Uremic toxicity, oxidative stress, and peripheral-central inflammation have been considered important mediators of CKD-induced nervous disorders. Nitric oxide (NO) is a retrograde neurotransmitter in synapses, and has vital roles in intracellular signaling in neurons.

Inflammation and oxidative stress are crucial for osteoarthritis (OA) pathogenesis. Despite the potential of pharmacological pretreatment of chondrocytes in preventing OA, its efficacy in preventing the progression of cartilage damage and promoting its recovery has not been examined. In this study, an HO-induced human OA-like chondrocyte cell model was created using H1467 primary human chondrocytes to evaluate the efficacy of interleukin (IL)-6 and cyclooxygenase (COX)-2 inhibitors (tocilizumab and celecoxib, respectively) in the prevention and treatment of cartilage damage.

4',5,6,7-tetrahydoxyisoflavone (6-hydroxygenistein, 6-OHG) is a hydroxylated derivative of genistein with excellent antioxidant activity, but whether 6-OHG can protect hypoxia-induced damage is unclear. The objective of current study was to evaluate the protective effect and underling mechanism of 6-OHG against hypoxia-induced injury via network pharmacology and cellular experiments. 6-OHG-related and hypoxia injury-related targets were screened by public databases.
