Lentinan protects pancreatic β cells from STZ‐induced damage
Pancreatic β-cell death or dysfunction mediated by oxidative stress underlies the development and progression of diabetes mellitus (DM). In this study, we evaluated the effect of lentinan (LNT), an active ingredient purified from the bodies of Lentinus edodes, on pancreatic β-cell apoptosis and dysfunction caused by streptozotocin (STZ) and the possible mechanisms implicated. The rat insulinoma...
متن کاملDehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA) protects hippocampal cells from oxidative stress-induced damage.
It has been postulated that decreases in plasma levels of dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA) may contribute to the development of some age-related disorders. Along with neuroprotective and memory enhancing effects, DHEA has been shown to display antioxidant properties. Moreover, oxidative stress is known to cause lipid peroxidation and degenerative changes in the hippocampus, an area involved in mem...
متن کاملCellular damage induced by cadmium and mercury in Medicago sativa.
Alfalfa (Medicago sativa) plantlets were exposed to Cd or Hg to study the kinetics of diverse stress indexes. In the so-called beaker-size hydroponic system, plantlets were grown in 30 microM of Cd or Hg for 7 d. Oxidative stress took place and increased over time, a linear response being observed with Cd but not with Hg. To improve the sensitivity of the stress assays used, a micro-assay syste...
متن کاملTrehalose accumulation during cellular stress protects cells and cellular proteins from damage by oxygen radicals.
The disaccharide trehalose, which accumulates dramatically during heat shock and stationary phase in many organisms, enhances thermotolerance and reduces aggregation of denatured proteins. Here we report a new role for trehalose in protecting cells against oxygen radicals. Exposure of Saccharomyces cerevisiae to a mild heat shock (38 degrees C) or to a proteasome inhibitor (MG132) induced treha...
متن کاملDerinat Protects Skin against Ultraviolet-B (UVB)-Induced Cellular Damage.
Ultraviolet-B (UVB) is one of the most cytotoxic and mutagenic stresses that contribute to skin damage and aging through increasing intracellular Ca(2+) and reactive oxygen species (ROS). Derinat (sodium deoxyribonucleate) has been utilized as an immunomodulator for the treatment of ROS-associated diseases in clinics. However, the molecular mechanism by which Derinat protects skin cells from UV...
