Hypertrophic stimuli cause transcription of the proto-oncogene c-Myc (Myc). Prior work showed that myocardial knockout of c-Myc (Myc) attenuated hypertrophy and decreased expression of metabolic genes after aortic constriction. Accordingly, we assessed the interplay between Myc, substrate oxidation and cardiac function during early pressure overload hypertrophy. Mice with cardiac specific, indu...

BACKGROUND/AIMS To investigate the drug survival rate of tacrolimus (TAC) and analyze the potential predictors of this rate in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) in routine care. METHODS2018-01-16 In this retrospective longitudinal study, we enrolled 102 RA patients treated with TAC from April 2009 to January 2014 at a tertiary center in South Korea. The causes of TAC discontinuation wer...

BACKGROUND To explore the effects and the mechanism of vitamin D (VD) and tacrolimus (TAC) combinatorial therapy in the treatment of IgA nephropathy (IgAN) in a rat model. MATERIAL AND METHODS IgAN rat models constructed by oral immunization with bovine serum albumin (BSA) and lipopolysaccharide (LPS) (n=30) and were treated with: saline (model group), TAC (TAC group), or TAC+VD therapy (TAC+VD...

Anti-Tac monoclonal antibody, which blocks the membrane binding and action of human T-cell growth factor (TCGF), is strongly proposed to recognize TCGF receptor. We have demonstrated that anti-Tac antibody reacted with leukemic cells from patients with adult T-cell leukemia (ATL) and reacted with T-cell lines established from ATL cells. Although antigenic modulation, or down-regulation, of Tac ...

AIM OF THE STUDY Decreased total antioxidant capacity (TAC) has been reported in different neoplasms, including lung cancer. However, no study concerning the relationship between endogenous antioxidants, lifestyle factors, and TAC has been conducted among lung cancer patients. The purpose of the study was to investigate the associations between endogenous antioxidants, severity of disease, life...

Human milk contains all of the constituents that are required for the optimal growth and development of a neonate. It supports the development of brain, immune, and physiological systems. This study aimed to consider the significance of breast milk in preventing oxidative stress by comparing total antioxidant capacity (TAC) in breast and formula milk for premature infants, demonstrating the rel...

Serum C-reactive protein (CRP) elevation predicts the development of heart failure in patients with hypertension. CRP activates macrophages and enhances oxidative stress. We hypothesize that CRP itself has a pathogenic role in the development of pressure overload-induced cardiac remodeling. Transgenic mice with human CRP overexpression (CRPtg) and nontransgenic littermates (CON) were subjected ...
