Published: July 2013

Mitochondrial autophagy (Mitophagy), the specific autophagic elimination of mitochondria, has been related with several forms of degenerative disease and mitochondrial dysfunction. It is involved in multiple cellular processes. In addition to one of its established key roles in the maintenance of normal cellular phenotype and function, there is growing interest in the concept that targeted modulation of mitophagy may reduce cerebral ischaemia/reperfusion injury. Induction of mitophagy results in selective clearance of damaged mitochondria in cells. In response to stress such as ischaemia/reperfusion, prosurvival and prodeath pathways are concomitantly activated in neuronal cells.

Background: Growing evidence indicates that disruptions in mitochondrial quality management contribute to the development of acute kidney injury (AKI), incomplete or maladaptive kidney repair, and chronic kidney disease. However, the temporal dynamics of mitochondrial quality control alterations in relation to renal injury and its recovery remain poorly understood and are addressed in this manuscript.

Method: ology: Male Wistar rats (n = 60) were subjected to varying durations of ischemia and reperfusion.

The death of osteoblasts induced by glucocorticoid (GC)-mediated oxidative stress plays a crucial role in the development of steroid-induced osteonecrosis of the femoral head (SIONFH). Improving bone formation driven by osteoblasts has shown promising outcomes in the prognosis of SIONFH. Isovitexin has demonstrated antioxidant properties, but its therapeutic effects on GC-induced oxidative stress and SIONFH remain unexplored.

The multi-kinase inhibitor sorafenib has shown potential to inhibit tumor cell growth and intra-tumoral angiogenesis by targeting several kinases, including VEGFR2 and RAF. Abnormal activation of the Ras/Raf/MAPK/ERK kinase cascade and the VEGF pathway is a common feature in breast cancer. However, the efficacy of sorafenib in breast cancer treatment remains limited.

The C-3 and C-5 substituted 20-deoxyingenol monoesters are important active components in Euphorbiaceae plants. Nonetheless, their similar physical properties make them difficult to distinguish. The present study developed fast and efficient rules for identifying the esterification sites of 20-deoxyingenol based on a series of chemical syntheses of monoesters and literature research, utilizing NMR spectroscopy, optical rotation analysis, and chromatographic retention behavior.
