Within the aging cortex, amyloid beta peptide (Aβ) is a crucial element of the senile plaques, a hallmark feature often observed in cases of Alzheimer's disease (AD). The UPR (unfolded protein response), a cellular mechanism for protein folding, is switched on by Aβ accumulation. Endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress has been identified as playing a role in aging and the development of neurodegenerative diseases.

T-2 toxin contamination in food and feed is a growing global concern, with its toxic effects on developing cartilage remaining poorly understood. In this study, we constructed an animal model using 4-week-old male Sprague-Dawley rats, which were administered T-2 toxin (200 ng/g body weight per day) by gavage for one month. Histological analysis showed a significant reduction in hypertrophic chondrocytes and increased caspase-3 expression and TUNEL staining in the deep cartilage zone of T-2 toxin-treated rats.

Background: Parkinson's disease (PD) is the age-associated, second most advanced neurodegenerative illness. Rotenone is an extensively used pesticide to study PD pathology and inhibits mitochondrial complex I. Reports indicate that rotenone exerts neurotoxicity by its capability to produce reactive oxygen species (ROS), which eventually leads to neuronal apoptosis.

Pulmonary fibrosis (PF) is a chronic, progressive lung disease characterized by fibroblast proliferation, extensive extracellular matrix and collagen deposition, accompanied by inflammatory damage, ultimately leading to death due to respiratory failure. Endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress in pulmonary fibrotic tissue is indeed recognized as a significant factor exacerbating PF development. Emerging evidences indicated a potential association between ER stress induced by lactate and cellular apoptosis in PF.

Safflower yellow is an extract of the famous Chinese medicine L, and safflower yellow injection (SYI) is widely used clinically to treat angina pectoris. However, there are few studies on the anti-myocardial ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury effect of SYI, and its mechanisms are unclear. In the present study, we aimed to investigate the protective effect of SYI on myocardial I/R injury and explore its underlying mechanisms.
